Believes Congressman Reeder
Will Be RenOminated.
ATHERTON'S MISTAKE.
Says He Shows His Hand Much
Too Early.
Wellington Can't Win With
Union Pacific Counties.

The Sixth district congressional stua-
tion promises to get into a glorious
tangle before time for the convention
E. s. Knight, of the secretary of states
ofhce, who IS from the Sixth district
himself and knows a thing or two about
conditions up there. prophesies that it
will develop into a fight between the
north and south sides of the district,
and if it does that Congressman Reeder
Will very likely be renominated.
L notice." remarked Mr.. Knight to-
day, that my friend Otis L. Atherton,
of Russell, has been making some po-
litical prophesies, in which he says,
among other things, that every county
on the Union Pacific railroad will be for
E. w Wellington for the congressional
nomination. Mr.. Atherton doubtless
speaks with authority, for he is recog-
nized as Mr.. Wellington's trainer. Mr..
wellington and his friends are very
kind to show their hands so early and
proclaim publicly that the gentleman
from Ellsworth is to- be the candidate
of the Union Pacific railroad, or of the
counties through which it runs This
is not the first time they have made
the same issue, and in every instance
they have driven the other parts of the
district to oppose them. and they have
been beaten at every turn. The Re-
publicanS of the north part of the dis
trict feel kindly toward Mr.. Wellington
personally, and have until now felt
friendly toward his political aspirations,
but his friends have taken the step that
will certainly keep him from support
which he might otherwise have hoped to
get from counties other than those
known as Union Pacific counties
THE district is composed of twenty
two counties and last year had a con-
vention composed of 1874 delegates. maxi
ing 68 votes necessary to a nomination.
If different apportionment is adopted
next year it can not result in much ad-
vantage to any candidate. Let yelling
ton have the seven counties that Ather-
ton is making him present of, and add
to those the counties of Lincoln, Rocks,
Graham. Sheridan, Thomas and
Mitchell all of which are touched by
branches of the Union Pacific road and
under last years apportionment he
would have 64 votes, four short of a
nomination The other nine counties
would have 20 votes. But Wellington'S
friends will not claim that he can ever
secure the support of all these thirteen
counties. Mitchell with ten votes is
conceded to one of the other candidates.
either Reeder or White while Yelling
ton will not seriously claim either
Rocks, Sheridan, Lincoln or Thomas,
which together have twenty votes in the
convention.
"Mr. Wellington is not the first
worthy man in Kansas politics to be
killed off early by the Incorporate zeal
friends.
1.-The friends of Mr.. Reeder and Mr..
White are not professional fixers, nor
are they given to profuse advertising
They will probably wait until the dele
gates are chosen before proclaiming to
the world that they are sure of the

Upton CANT QUIT.
Sir Thomas Is Willing to Try
For the Cup Again.

London, Nov. 26.-Sir Thomas Lipton's
announcement last evening at the BAN
quet given in his honor at the Hotel
Cecil. that he was willing to make an
other attempt to lift the Americas cup
should no one else do SO. may be taken
as tantamOunt as to a definite chal-
lenge. His inquiries in yachting circles
have elected the fact that no other
British yachtsman has the slightest de-
sire to step into the breach, and 1t is
safe to say that his Shamrock II will be
seen in American waters. However,
with the view of securing all legitimate
advantage, Sir Thomas will not official
ly communicate his decision to the New
York Yacht club until the evening OF
the expiration of the time in which a
challenge can be received.
w. G. Jameson, the amateur yachts
man who represented Sir Thomas Lip
ton on the Shamrock II during the races
off Sandy Hook this year, will not take
part in any more of Sir Thomas racing

KNOCKING ON WOODS.
Man Who Drew No. 1 at Lawton
Has More Trouble.

Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 26.-The applica-
ton of James r. Woods, who drew
claim No. in the government land
lottery, to commute his entry for town
site purposes has been contested on the
ground that the application was not
made in proper form; that the provi-
sions of the act of May %, 1890, DO not
apply to the new country; that the
entry adjoins Lawton, and if commuted
would be only an addition and not a
townsite within the meaning of the
law; that he has not resided on the
land fourteen months nor cultivated the
same.
The protestants ask that the applica-
tion to make commuted proof and cash
entry be rejected and the right be de-
MED Mr.. Woods to prove up his entry
as he desires to do.

shape of Farmers Bulletins,'' and the first one gives detailed plans for two model farm homes and two barns.
 While it is urged that farmers in building these homes will find many ways of saving money in their con- struction from the maximum cost es- timated by the architects, yet the full allowance is given so that no one need have an excuse for placing mortgage on the home before it is completed in order that money may be raised with which to complete it.
 We reproduce Q design, with first and second floor plans for house that Uncle Samuel believes will make a suitable and attractive home for 8 family of five or six persons, and which his architects assure us can be easily built for SLIGO. This price in- cludes the best of material for every feature of the building, and in mak- ing it the architect either supposes that the farmer whose home it is to become is either too lazy to assist in its construction, or that he does not know how, for there is absolutely nothing left for the farmer who has $1, 100 to spend to do but to move in when the building is completed. If he wishes to spend this amount of money he must hire the grading for the foundation done, he must pay for hauling of(material from the lumber
