FOR ALL THE PEOPLE.
J. R. Burton Speaks Of His Plans for
Kansas.

TOPEKA, Jan. 20.-J. r. Burton Is
here waiting for the election to take
place Tuesday at noon when he will
be made United States senator. In
an interview concerning his attitude
toward Leavenworth and Senator
Baker he said with much emphasis:
~ am not in sympathy, in any
particular, in the Populistic idea Of
sectionalism; class against class;
neighbor against neighbor.
II prefer to stand on the higher
plane Of thought wherein it is held
that what benefits one benefits all.
Anything which would injure
Leaveuworth county would injure
Dickinson, my home county. Injury
to either county would be an injury
to the state. An injury to the state
would injure all Of us. Therefore, it
is easy to conclude that will, when
am senator, to the best Of my ability
and power, work only for those
things which will benefit the whole
state; benefits for all Of the people.
1t shall be my effort and ambition to
do only that which will bring benefit
to every section Of the state"
Mr.. Burton's attention was directed
to the fact that there has been sug-
gested, by busy persons, the idea
that perhaps because Mr.. Baker op-
posed the election Of Burton, the
latter might, in some way, have in
bis mind prejudice against the home
Of the retiring senator.
"Such talk as this" said Mr.. Bur-
ton with q smile, "merits no contra.
diction. 1t is folly for any man to
presume or say that l expect to in
dulge in a campaign Of punishment
for my political opponents"
political enemiesP" suggested the
correspondent.
"Oh no, there are no enemies ia
politics. Men oppose and fight each
other, but the Republican party be.
lieves in the principle that majorities
rule and we are, after our contests,
always united and ready to do battle
again"
Mr.. Burton repeatedly expressed
the thought that he has not only high
regard for Senator Baker but appre-
ciates the kind words which have
come to him from Leavenworth coun.
ty and treasures the people Of the
city and county, too, that whatever
he can do to serve them will be done
with cheerfulness.
Mr.. Burton expressed his regret
that business takes him away Wednes-
day and he will not be in Abilene un-
til March. Then there will be an in
formal reception day but no banquet
or speeches.

MakesHair
Grow

Perhaps your mother had
thin hair, but that is no reason
why you must go through life
with half-starved hair. Ifyou
want long, thick hair, feed it.
Feed it with Ayers Hair Vigor,
the only genuine hair food you
can buy.
Your hair will grow thick
and long, and will be soft and
glossy.
Ayers Hair Vlgor always
restores color to gray hair; it
keeps the scalp clean and
healthy, and stops falling Of
the hair.

SALOONS WRECKED.
Mrs. Carrie Nation Again Goes on
the Warpath at Wichita.
BACKED Up BY The LOCAL W.C.T,U.
Glassware and Slot Machines Demolished
by Hatchets--A Ride Afterwards Taken
BY the Women, Who Sing Hymns
and Pray In Front Of saloons.

Wichita, Kan, Jan. S2.-Mrs Carrie
Nation came back to Wichita yester-
day to avenge her recent incarcer-
alton under q smallpox quarantine,
and the net result of ten minutes Of
her work in the afternoon are two
wrecked saloons, the pieces of which
were sold last night for souvenirs.
Mrs. Nation was assisted by Mrs.
Julia Evans, Mrs. Lucy Wilhert and
Mrs. Lydia Muntz, all Of the local W.
G. Y. U, organization. With hatchets
concealed under their cloaks they en-
tered the saloon of James Burnes, Oh
Douglas avenue, and did not leave
complete piece Of glass or working
slot machine in the place. All show
eases, both liquors and cigars, as we'll
az the plate-glass windows and doors,
were broken into smithereens. With
lightning speed they run to John Her.
rigs saloon and had everything in
the front room, including the plate
glass windows, broken when he ap-
peared with a revolver, placed 1t at
Mrs. Nations head and said that he
would blow out her brains If she did
not desist. She yielded before the
pointed revolver and with her COM
panions ran to the Carey hotel bar
where she made her initial attack on
the saloons of Wichita three weeks
ago, There three policemen met her
and she struck Detective Sutton with
o poker. He showed her aside and
nome prohibition youth struck him in
the face. Officer Prizer struck the
youth and knocked him down. The
officers then overpowered Mrs. Nation
ind her friends and took them to the
city prison, followed by 1000 people.
Mrs. Evans little daughter pushed
her way through the crowd, scream
ing, and begged for the release Of her
mother, but Officer Fox was deaf to
her entreaties.
Chief Of Police Cubbon discharged
the prisoners after they reached the
j"il and is heartily condemned by the
citizens. They made him promise
not to wreck any more saloons be-
fore noon to-day. Mrs. Evans hand
was badly cut by broken glass and
her husband, who Is a physician,
scwed it up.
After leaving the city building Mrs.
Nation, in the most cool manner, be-
gan street lecture to the immense
crowd that had surrounded the city
building, saying that she expected to
begin saloon wrecking again at noon
