The Republicans have swept Kansas.
They have elected their entire state
ticket, Bailey leading with probably
more than 10000 plurality, the entire
congressional delegation, thirteen cut of
seventeen district judges, and probably
more than ninety members of the legis-
latrre.
Kelly was generally scratched over
the state In every county where the
truth had been published about him he
ran far behind the state ticket. There
were probably 10000 Republican ms who
refused to vote for him, but he probably
received between 5000 and 10000 Demo-
cratic votes

Chairman Philips, of the Republican
county central committee, said this af
ternoon that with Monmouth. Sutherin,
Richland and Tecumseh to hear from
that Lucas plurality in the city and
county was 1858, and Nichols plurality
was 1904.
S. H Haines was reelected county
commissioner over Grant Mcconnell
The vote as received shows Haines to
have 943 and Mcconnell $50. The returns
received from the country precincts are
very meager and the figures may be
changed by the official count but not
enough to make any difference in the
result.
Shawnee county voters yesterday
elected Bert Lucas as sheriff and Galen
Nichols as county attorney. Each has
majority of about 1900 with a few
country precincts to hear from.
Topeka city gave Lucas a majority of
1,092 and Nichols majority of 1,057-
They carried five out of the six wards,
losing only the Sixth ward by a ma
jority of IS and IS respectively.
Bailey for governor carried Topeka by
2502 majority. This will be largely in
creased when all the county is heard
from.

votes behind his ticket in Topeka city

The entire Republican county and

led the entire ticket, receiving 45l4
votes. 1. s. Curtis, candidate for clerk
of the district court, led the county
ticket, receiving a total of 4,37S votes in
the city alone. The Republicans elected
three representatives to the legislature.

The Last of the Modocs.


II Under the auspices of the La
III dies Benevolent Society and
~ directly in charge of Mr.. Brew
ster of the city, there appeared in
Chanute, last week, a band of full
blood Modoc Indians headed by
Yellowhammer, man full of in
telligence and thought, an Indian
who has seen and experienced actual
warfare as carried on by them in
other days.
Chief Bailey, or Yellowhammer,
as he is known by his tribe, is near
ing his 18th year but hardly looks
to be S.. He is married to his
third wife Ga white woman of Eng
fish and German parentage, born
near Memphis. Mo-, 26 years ago.
and when interviewed by reporter
for the TINES was found holding the
baby in regular approved white
man style while Mrs. Yellowhammer
visited the fair grounds. He grum-
bled slightly when laughed at about
being henpecked. But to do the
Chief justice he certainly appeared
to treat his wife with great con-
sideration, even going so far as to
insist on her being seated while he
stood, thing never heard of before
among the Indians. This mans
career is interesting and when told
by him gains interest in every de-
tail.
He was born among the great
klamath tribe in 1897, in the foot
hills of the Rocky Mountains and
grew up warrior of merit, becom-
ing full fedged chief some years
later. The klamath tribe being
body of associated tribes including
the Modocs, wandered over Oregon,
California and other western states,
giving battle only when forced to
do so. From the earliest history
obtainable it is a fact well known
that they have always been friendly
to the white men, but until short
time ago they have never been
rightly understood by the author
tiles at Washington.
In IS42 the Modocs separated
from the Klamaths and carried on
running war with them for about
ten years, caused by the mis-
representation of the Modocs by
the Klamaths to the authorities in
the east. In 1852 the white settlers
of Oregon invited AZ chiefs of the

Horse Notes.

An exhibition of the Grey Norman
stallion, Fair Fadett and his colts
was made Thursday last, at the barn
of Brinegar 81 Reeves. Prizes were
given for the best colt shown f. j.
Cooper got first money $1,000, with
j. Thurman's young colt close
second. In all $40 90 was given in
prizes and the colts shown were to
the average man all winners. Mr..
Brinegar has moved his stock to his
farm, north west of town, where
those interested In breeding will find
the best horses and jacks in the
country He will return all of his
stock to the city In the spriug and
make his headquarters in Chanute

Modocs to peace feast to be held
in the woods. This feast started
well and was we'll under way when
the whites arose and killed Al of
the Al in attendance. The six who
escaped, it is now claimed by
Yellowhammer, raised the Modocs
and then began the great Lava Bed
fight which ended so disastrously
for all concerned. In this great
battle the entire band of Modocs
was wiped out and the few that
were left were a short time later
sent to the Indian Territory and ex-
cepting few stragglers in Oregon
the race is now fewer than 50 mem,
bers left.
The Modocs were always noted
for their bravery, fear being abb
solutely unknown TO them, and they
were race that could stand hard
ships beyond belief Many of
them are now farmers and traders
in stock, some are quite wealthy.
All are very light hearted and happy.
Yellowhammer is philosopher, if
one ever lived, a man well posted
on current events and knows how to
save all the money that comes his
way. Charley Harris, the second
chief in command, is practical
joker and furnishes fun for the
others continually. He was bad
ly wounded twice, being shot in the
lungs by soldiers under command of
Major Gen. Miles, whom he now
proudly claims as his friend. In
thirty years the Modocs have dwin-
died from a race of 500 members
down to 50, and the people of Cha
mute have seen what will certainly
be in few years the last of the
tribe. -

BROKEN PROMISES.

Great Falls Tribune: Republicans
are fond of boasting that their party
keeps all the pledges it makes to the
people but the late session of congress
hardly bears out the claims. At 4:hat
sessi Oh more broken promises Ican be
found than fulfilled ones.
The republican platform of 1900
pledged the party to enact rigorous
gold standard law. Such bill was
reported to the house but the party
baked, and its gold standard promise
is unful filed. It is we'll that it is UNI
UTILIZED, but that does not alter the
fact that a promise was broken.
The same platform boasted that free
dom had been given to ten millions of
the human race in the Philippines, but
its representatives in congress voted
down the attempt of Representative
Mccall to carry out that pledge by de-
clarlng for the development of the ca
pacity of the t'ilipinos for freedom and
to give them freedom latter the fash
ion of really free nations.
The republican party declared in
favor of reciprocity and yet Cuban re-
ciprocity and other efforts at recipro-
city were defeated by the republicans.
The republican platform condemned
the trusts and promised Legislation to
''etfectually restrain them. Yet the
party in congress failed to take a
single step in that direction.
Statehood for the territories was
promised, but that promise, like the
others, has been broken.
These are few of the republican
broken promises. Others could be
mentioned.
