What Theodore Roosevelt Says

An article on 1.-The Presidency" by
Theodore Roosevelt, to be published
in the November 9Th issue OF the
Youths Companion, will be of great
public interest. When the article
was written Mr.. Roosevelt had not
even been nominated for the Vice
Presidency.
Nothing was further from his
thought than that he would so soon
exercise the great powers which are
entrusted to the President Of the
United States.
In view of the circumstance the
article possesses an Importance more
than ordinary, and it will be eagerly
looked for. The number of the
Youths Companion containing it,and
all the subsequent issues Of 1902, will
be sent free to new subscribers from
the time their subscription of $l.75 is
received for the 1903 volume. The
new subscriber will also receive the

PACKED THE HOUSE.
e. A. Kimball Christian Science
Lecture Draws Big Crowd.

The Crawford opera house was pack
ed Sunday afternoon by people to hear
Edward A Kimball, a Christian Scien-
tist lecturer discuss the beliefs and
principles of Christian Science
Mr.. kimball is we'll known among
the Scientists all over the country and
was looked forward to as an event of
Importance for the members of that
church here.
At a meeting held early in the after
noon at the Church of Christ at the cor
ner of HuntoOn and Polk streets, Mr
kimban made an address to the mem
bers of the church, while the public
meeting at the opera house was open to
the public.
Mr.. Kimban has been advocating the
principles of Christian Science for 13
years. For the u years previous to- his
conversion to Christian Science Mr.
kimbau says he was the victim of
what he terms belief incurable' dis
ease. A number of years were spent in
travelling in Europe for his health He
spent thousands of dollars with physi-
clans in all parts of the world but the
invariable verdict would be that he
was incurable.
I felt like a man sitting beside an
open grave" said Mr.. Kimball After
being assured so often that the doctors
could do me no good, you may imagine
my feelings. And it was not until after

ence that I found any relief"

MUST PAY THE SALARY.
Question of Who is Entitled to 1t in
Mayor Case is Decided.

In the same batch of decisions that
decided the Topeka mayoralty case,
another opinion was handed down by
the supreme court which settles def
nitely who is entitled to the salary of
mayor during the time that Mayor
Hughes has held the office.
Lawyers generally have agreed that
it belongs to the man who gets the office
by the decision of the supreme court,
but if there should be a disposition to
contest the matter it is already decided
in the case of Beeler against Fern,
which was decided Saturday
Amos Fern held an office in Leaven-
worth county which was claimed by o.
c. Beeler, but Fern refused to give ii
up. He held on and continued to draw
the pay until Beeler filed a quo war

Then Beeler demanded the pay which
Fern had drawn, and Fern refused to
give that up. Beeler sued him and got
Judgment for the amount of the salary.
The. case was appealed and the supreme
court Saturday affirmed the decision of

KANSAS NEEDS MOISTURE.
Wheat Is Suffering For Snow or
Rain.

Kansas is in need of rain or snow for
the benefit of the winter wheat crop.
The crop is not in immediate danger
from drouth but moisture is needed.
The United States climate and crop
report says of the conditions of the
wheat crop in Kansas: Wheat leaves
frosted, root not hurt, plant gener-
ally in fair condition but needing mois-
ture." The climate and crop report also
says:
Winter wheat was subjected to very
trying temperature conditions from the
14th till about the 23d, during which
period extremely cold weather prevail
ed throughout the lake region, central
valleys, and southern states. Fortu-
nately for the crop, however, a light
covering of snow afforded very mater
ial protection in the principal wheat
growing states during ths period OF
greatest cold. At the close of Decem-
Der the condition of winter wheat was
generally satisfactory in Michigan, In
diana, northern portions of Illinois and
Missouri and in Nebraska and KANSAS,
the reports being less favorable south
of the Ohio river and in the middle At
lantic states. The outlook on the Pa
ciffc coast is highly encouraging, al
though drying winds and absence of
rain in California since the goth have
been unfavora BILE. Moisture is very

HOW THEY STAND.
Sixth District Republicans Pretty
Well Divided on Congressman.

One of the Republicans of the Sixth
district has sized up the congressional
situation in the district at this date, by
counties, as follows:
Reeder@Decatur, Mitchell, Horton,
Phillips, Rocks, and five votes from
Smith
WeIIington-Ellis, Ellsworth, Cove,
Graham, Lincoln, Logan, Russell, four
votes from Smith, Trego and Wallace
White-Jewell, four votes from Smith
and Sheridan.
Doubtful-Cheyenne, Osborne, Raw
Inns. Sherman and Thomas.
This Republican Office holder is a
Reeder supporter but believes the way
Osborne county goes the others will
jump into the Osborne county band
wagon at once, no matter what their
preferences may have been before they
heard from Osborne county. The Re
publican who furnishes the above di-
vides the delegates in Smith county
where there is a candidate for secretary
of state, among the three congressional
candidates, but does not admit of any
division in the counties of Graham and
Mitchell, while there are open candi-
dates for lieutenant governor and the
supreme bench, or in Horton county
where there may be a candidate for
superintendent of public instruction.

Ex-Governor Click tried to resign

the last business session Friday after
noon. After the officers had been elect

that he had retired from active farming
life and he thought it would be better
for the board if a younger, more active
man should be put in his place.
The reading of the resignation brought
half a dozen men to their feet. A w
