Three Men After BowersOck.

The Congressional situation in the
Second District is taking on look

BAD FIGHT LOOKED FOR
POpulist Party Objects to Being Ee-
liVered into Democratic Camp

Topeka, Feb. 20. There is every in
dication that the Populist leaders are
going to have a hard time transferring
the rank and the file of the party into
the Democratic camp. Pract tically
every county convention which has
been held in the state has passed reso-
lutions favoring the maintenance of
the party organization. IT is probable
that John II. w Brienthal and Chris
Hoffman, who from the first have OPP
posed the scheme of going into the
Democratic party, will suggest as
compromise that the party organiza-
ton be maintained, but thatSthe party
wait and see what. kind of aSticket the
Democrats put in the fieldland, If it is
satisfactory, indorse it, but otherwise
to nominate n straight ticket. The
Populist state conference at which
this question will be settled will be
held here Friday aud Saturday of this
week.

On the Santa Fe the south-bound

found in the dead mans left breast,

Reviewed the Parade

Last night in the convention hall in
Kansas City General Funston re-
viewed the Third regiment, National
Guard. The General occupied dec
GRATED box, with his doctor and Lieu
tenant Mitchell. Funston was in
evening clothes, his uniform being in
San Francisco. When he appeared
the band struck up and the smart reg
iment did some excellent drilling. AS
the band started "The Star Spangled
Banner" Funston was on his feet first
and the audience slowly arose. After
the parade, Funston was visited by
military men present and they watched
the dancing half an hour before re-
turning to his hotel. The modest
hero not only did not wear his medal
of honor but he declined the guard OF
twenty soldiers offered.

Chnnce for lron RoIling Mill

The REGISTER has already made
mention of Mr.. Chas. Rife who has
been making tour of the gas belt
and was headed toward lola. lie was
here yesterday and in company With
Mr.. Heller made thorough investi-
cation of lola and her resources.
Mr.. Rife is secretary and treasurer
of the Progressive Oil Co. of Hartford
City, Ind. His company sent him out
on a prospecting tour looking towards
the erection of an Iron Rolling Mill.
Carload after carload of scrap iron is
gathered up over the country, shipped
east, worked through the rolling mills
and shipped back west again. Locat-
ed here an industry of that kind would
save money both in fuel and in
TIE freight both ways, The
plant the company has in mind will
employ 200 men.
Mr.. Rife says that lola is the best
town in the gas belt and that he will
so report. 4 After his report is
filed with the company they will make
a proposition of some sort stating
what they want and what they will do.
The idea on which the company is
working is good one and as Mr.. Rife
has already expressed preference for
lola it is worth looking into.

NeighbOrs Built the House

Another of those stories of human
kindness that warm the frozen places
of ones heart comes from Redfield,
over in Burbon county. Last sum-
mer a man by the name of c. G. Craw-
ford came from Missouri with his
family, rented house and began
work in the flag stone quarries near
the village. He had saved his money
and had purchased a couple Of lots
with a view of building a home.
A few days ago ne was notified to
vacatethe house in which he was living,
and as there were no vacant no uses
in the villiage, he was at a loss to
know what to do. TIisneighbors were
not, They got together yesterday,
hauled the lumber, which they helped
him to purchase on time, to his lots
and by night the new house, II by l6
feet was well under way and will be
completed by noon today. A good
dinner was served to the workmen
and picnic was made of the occas-
ion.

son 8, Bourbon u, none having select
ed delegates.
The Olathe News-Herald, fighting
Bowersock because he appointed the
editor of the Mirror postmaster, has
this to say: "Allen county sends word
tina. her delegation will be divided
evenly. Bowersock's friends concede
that Linn is lost, Franklin and
Miami will split even. Johnson, the
News-Herald's county, will never send
delegation for Bowersock."
Just how he discovered that Allen
county was divided nobody knows.
The county central committee will de-
eide that next Tuesday If Bowersock
gets Douglas and divides Anderson,
Franklin, Johnson, Linn and Miami
and gets Allen he will have So votes.
1t requires SO to elect. Wyandotte
and Bourbon are at loggerheads over
federal court. They will hardly
stampede to each other.
II may require more than one ballot
to renomina.e Bowersock, but the
REGISTER the new band at political
guessing at the helm cannot see how
he is so surely defeated as some peo-
pie wisely hint,
