May Be Candidates For Chair
man State Convention.
Fierce Struggle For the Place
is Anticipated.
BAILEY AND ANTI
Believed Issue Will Be Clearly
Drawn on Craftsmanship.
Lyons Republican Questions the
Rice County Instructions.

An absorbing question among the Re
publicans now is who shall be chair
man of the state convention. It is pro-
bable that there will be a big struggle
over the organization when the conven-
ton meets next Wednesday morning In
the auditorium at Wichita.
The two candidates most talked of are
Senator John Hessin, of Manhattan, for
the Bailey people. and Senator John c.
Carpenter, of NeoshO county, for the
anti-Railey faction, but they have not
been decided upon as the opposing can
1idates
made in the convention, it has been Sug-
gested that Congressman Curtis and
Congressman Long, two opposing candl-
dates for United States senator, be the
candidates for chairman. This would
make an exceedingly interesting con-
test, but it might not definitely show
the sentiment of the convention on the
gubernatOrial question. For instance,
there are delegations in the First con
gressional district who are for Curtis
for United States senator. but who at
the same time are for Bailey Tor
governor. Then there are few dele
gates in the Seventh district who are
against Curtis for senator and VINO are
also against Bailey for governor. Such
a contest might not prove anything, but
it would be intensely interesting.
The Lyons Republican takes issue
with the information furnished the
State Journal regarding the Rice county
Republican convention last week, in
which it was stated that ]. E. Junkln.
who has been making a fight for Trout
man, had everything his own way IN the
convention Clark COnkling, editor OF
the Republican is a Miller man. AS eVl-
dence of the fact that Junkin did not
have everything his own way he points
to the fact that Junkin. who favored
Troutman had only 6S votes for dele
gate to the state convention, while he
himself, a Miller man, received l0l
votes. Commenting on Junkin's resolu-
ton declaring the sentiment of Rice
county to be in favor of Troutman, Mr..
COnkling says:
THE only spark Of unkind feeling that
appeared in the convention was when
J. z. Junkin introduced his resolution
declaring TrOutman to be the choice OF
the convention for governor. This was
just after the taking up of the ballots
for surveyor, when III votes only We're
cast and many were leaving the hall
This action is on par with more OF
Junkin's actions. The convention had
lust elected a delegation of representa-
tive Republicans to attend the state
| convention, in whom probably they had
cOnfidence@at least the vote would SO
| indicate. Mr.. Junkin has made at least
a three months canvass for Troutman'
support and barely skimped in on the
| delegation with three votes to spare, re-
ceiving eight votes less than enough to
elect him if the rules had required a
majority rather than a plurality to Sc
lect We submit, it came with mighty
| Door grace from the second lowest man
| to attempt to bind others who received
| from twO-thirds to three-quarters of
the votes of that convention"

Cincinnati, O., May 24.-Fire in the

alarm, but fortunately the controlling
forces prevented loss of life. -Four at
tendants were overcome by smoke and
injured. The fire started in the drying
room, and on the floor above % girls
were sleeping They were quickly
aroused and all gotten out safely The
superintendent and nurses of the house
used every effort to prevent patients and
others from reckless flight, and with the
assistance Of police and firemen a panic
was prevented. Before the fire was IN

TELLING THE TRUTH.
London Times Second Volume of

London, May 24.-The second volume
of the London Times History of the

tracing unusual attention because Of

fact of its appearing under the auspices

who proved quite unfit to grapple with
the difficult situation in which, largely
by the mistakes of others, he was
placed" The cavalry was as bad as
the infantry, and the situation was only
saved by the heroism of the artillery
The surrender of troops at Nicholson ;
Mex is described as premature, though
no more humiliating than many sur
renders which occurred after it."
Passing to Stormberg, the writer de-
scribes the succession of blunders which
led to the reverse as sheer misman-
agement on the part of General Gatacre,
or his staff"
Touching the browning misfortune at
Colenso the author says: Just as in
the hour of battle General Butler had
failed the men whom he led, so now, in
the hour of trial, he was to fail his coun-
try, which had entrusted the fortune of
war to his hands. He utterly lost
heart. Not only did he despair Of doing
anything himself, but he despaired for
