WHEN such men as Lafayette
Stow will purchase over thirteen
hundred acres of Bayfield, coun-
ty land with the express purpose
OF making mammoth farm
there is no reason to doubt that
our soil and conditions for farm
ing are all right. Mr.. Stow is a
man nearly seventy years Of age.
and has been a practical farme,
all his life. He has thoroughly
examined into all the conditions
surrounding farming in this Sec
ton, and the resulthas convinced
him that great big block Of
Bayfield, county land is the best
that can be got for good farming
purposes. It's one of the larg-
est sales that has been made to
an actual settler in the county.

A TRIBUTE WORTH SOMETHING.

The late President william RcKin-
ley had no better friend and admirer
anywhere than Senator Mark Hanna.
Their devotion to each other was
something often noticed, commented
on and sometimes missonstrued, but
one Of the m ost touching tribrtes yet
paid to the memory Of eur mErtyred
president was by Senator Hams at the
laying sof the.cornerstone of the Nc
Kinley Memorial Ohio college Of Gov
ernmert near Washington, Wednesday.
Senssor HaKpa said among other
things:
This is inaeed very interesting
occasion to me Its associations bring
mp memories. The laying of this
cornerstone, the foundation of this
temple Of learning, to be builaed by
the pubkc spirited men Of my native
state, is sconsecrated to the memory
Of her dearest con, William Mckin-
ley. Pile up yo1r marble and every
stone will mark EN- incident inhis life,
of his devotion t. humanity and his
fellow mer. Crcwn it in the glory. Of
its completion and he will look down
from on high and bless your noble
work. 1t l. indeed a noble wosk.
ut was 10 him that we looked for
our leader, not only in thought, but
in example. His iHterest in THE uni
versity was rot because of his devo-
tion to all public institutions that con-
tributed to the development Of his
countrymen. He knew the A B o Of
that life. He knew the foundation Of
the principle which was to make his
country great and his experiences in
public life made him appreciate per-
haps more than any other man the
value of an institltion Ike this.
"That cornerstone has beneath it a
Foundation more enduring than granite
lit is immortality-aud chat was the
foundation of Mckinley s life. "
No enc knew President Mckinley
better chan Senator Hanna, and such
an eulogy is indeed worthy Of place
in history.

ANIMAL GOT BAD.

Last night Brutus, one Of the
trained lions, became angry in the
Bostock animal show and Princess DE

to brighten him of. The powerful
animal struck her once, but forum
ately it glanced in such way as to
leave her uninjured.
The animal was finally quieted but
during his antics he created consider
able excitement IN the tent, remind
ing those present OF the last year when
the lion got ont and created a panic.
THE MIDWAY.
Large attendance on midway last
night. Every form of amusement that
could have originated in the mind,
of those who are here to please the
people was adopted last night. AL
the shows did q rushing business, II
being hardly necessary for the spieleri
to stand in front of the booths to draw
the crowds and capture the coin Of
the sightseers.

midway TO the once at the end. there
was lots doing and the people did Il
we'll. The first attraction to greet tn,
eye, and in fact the ear OF the crowd
was that of Chiquita, the doll lady.
Immense congregations passed in and
out of the booth for the entire even
ing, sdmiring the queenly grace and
beauty Of the little woman.
The animal show with its oolleo-
tion Of untamable, and trained wild
beasts did the largest business of any
of the shows. There was great deal
of excitement while Princess De La

The COUNTY CONVENTION
Republican County Central Committee
Met Today and Called it to Meet
ut Moran on June II.

There was goodly gathering of
old line Republicans in town Tuesday
the occasion being the called meeting
of the fifty or more members of the
county central committee. The meet
ing was held in the court room at the
court house and the principal busi-
ness of the meet was the selecting of u
date for holding the county convention
and primaries.
The attendance was not full but
there were thirty or forty of the COM
mittee present and Chairman Ewing
called the meeting to order. The time
of holding the convention was discus
sed so as to hold it when the wheat
and corn crops would not keep the
farmers from attending and the can
didates we're called on for expressions
of opinion. Some favored June I and
others June 81. After full discus
sion it was decided to hold the primar-
les on the 14th and the convention on
June II.
Moran was selected as the place for
holding the convention. Clark Thorn
as made an impassioned plea, setting
forth the fact that the Katy had agreed
to run a special train to reach Moran
from lola about 10 o'clock, that pro-
vision was made for feeding the dele
gates and the train would bring them
back when the convention adjourned.
There was no other candidate and so
the convention will meet in Moran at
IL a. IN. June II.
1t was decided also to print the rules
regarding primary election for the in
struction of voters who are not famil-
lar with the system in vogue here. It
was also ordered that the secretary
have the primary tickets printed ten
days before the convention, so candi.
dates must have their announcements
with him by that time to get on the
tickets.

Miss Mitchell Reelected

The lola board of education met in
its annual session Monday to con-
slider matters of Importance to the
schools of the city. Reports were re-
ceived and the board reorganized.
For the ensuing twelve months the
officers of the board will be L. c.
Remsburg, president, d. p. Northrup,
vice. president, and G. M. Nelson,
secretary. Mr.. John Vannuys, elected
at the city election last year, holds
over as treasurer.
Miss Clifford Mitchell, the present
superintendent of schools, was re-
elected to that office. She has become
so perfectly familiar with the work,
has done such effective and satisfac-
tory work that the board was a unit
in voting to put her in charge for an
other year. Miss Mitchell is claimed
as an lola girl, having lived here for
ten years or more, and her numerous
friends win be pleased to know that
her ability and industry are recog-
nized
The board adopted the johnson
automatic heat regulating apparatus
for the new school building. In most
buildings each teacher regulates the
temperature of her room, but one
never notices such things until the
room is too hot or too cold. The
automatic contrivance turns off or
on the heat as the room requires,
maintaining a fixed temperature.
A letter of thanks from Miss Maude
Minrow, who left the lola schools to
accept a better position in Kansas
City, thanking the board for its cor
dial letter of recommendation was
read by the board with pleasure.
The treasurer made his annual re-
port of moneys received and expended
and it shows that the city schools
have become an important and expen-
sive concern. For the year from May
6, 1901, to May 5 1902, the books

Diekey Fighting for Chanute Gas

One of the considerations which in
duced w, S. Dickey to decide to To-
cate his tile and brick works at Cha
mute was the lease known as the Cole
lease which he supposed was coming
to him. On this lease was drilled
several months ago the best gas well
in the Chanute field. The Cofreyville
brick people, however, claim the same
lease and put a gang of fifteen men
from Independence atlwork, connected
their pipes with the well and are prob
ably using it now. They claim to
hold prior lease on the land. The
Dickey people have taken legal steps
to oust them but the Colfeyville peo-
pie show fight and, having possession
may make Dickey heap of trouble,
