Emma Johnson was handled in wav
that showed she had bestowed much
thought upon the problem. This is
the most serious objection to consoli-
dation but Miss Johnson demonstra-
ted its practicability. The paper was
discussed by Miss Nellie Corner and
others.
A general discussion concerning
the common school diploma was
opened by Rev. Pierce. He stated
elnphatically that it was worth the
trouble, that trouble should not be
considered where good results. He
believes that the standard of scholar

graduates should be somewhat higher.
Supt. Little spoke in the same vein.
This completed the formal program.
The thanks of the association were
extended to the people of Lewis and
vicinity who had helped to make the
meeting success, after which the as
sociation adjourned.
Much credit is due the Lewis teach
ers, Misses johnson and Hobble for
their efforts in behalf of the asso.

The persistent rumors that the

by the Rock Island has brought
the following emphatic denial from
President Yoakum-
"The st. Louis and San Fran
cisco railroad is not to be merged
with the Rock leland nor with any
other railroad. / have denied this
before, and now repeat it. The
Frisco is not negotiating with any
railroad or representatives of syn.

This disposes Of the reported
extension of the Rock Island, so
far as the Frisco is concerned. The
Atchison is another which was
said 10 be claiming the attention
OF the Moorss. President Ripley
Of the Atchiscn is quoted as saying
that there will be no sale of the
control of that property to Rock
Island interests. He also declares
that the Atcnison people have not
been lookIngfor any merger with
the Rock Island or any other road.

Blamed for the
Trouble.

From Parsons has come the fol-
lowing choice bit Of political gos-
sip anent the holding up Of the
appointment Of VIM. Higgins as
deputy clerk of court.
"After the funeral of L. S. Crum
at Oswego, Saturday, the visiting
politicians exchanged the usual
gossip, and among other stories
was told one of fight made on
VIM. Higgins, formerly secretary
of state Of Kansas, by "Cy" LIE.
land, "Mort" Albaugh and others
of that faction ofrepublicans. Hig.
gins is located at Vinita, in the
Indian Territory, where he is in
the real estate business. He and
"Joe" Gill, judge of the federal
court of that district, are great
friends, and Gill thought that he
might do his friend good turn by
appointing him deputy clerk. The
job is worth $50 month.
Gill did not tell Higgins what
he was going to do for him, but
one day he confided the secret to
George Findley, who it is reported
felt so good over it that he took it
to TSPska and told it around
pretty freely. 1t reached the ears
of Leland and Albaugb, who be-
gan fight on Higgins. Some
time before, Higgins had written
letter to Albaugh criticising the
organization of the new state COM
mittee. He laughed particularly
at Albaugh's special friend. He
said Tomlinson. BILLY" Morgan,
Raney and all the crowd except |
Leland were ''jokes" and guessed
that Leland was put on to give
the committee ''character."
OF coutse this offended Albaugh. |
Higgins never was in good stand
ing with Albaugh and Leland and
now the letter settled it.
The first step was to send for
Gill. He took the 6rst train for
Topeka and when the question
was put to him he admitted that
be had decided to give Higgins
\ deputy clerkship. He is my
riend" said Gill, "and although
le has not asked for the place. l

But he is not our friend" they
