liable way. When their votes were
needed to save the ring candidate they
went that way. Otherwise they mag
unanimously divided.
The men. so far as men 60, are aver
age good citizens, but the methods eni-
ployed in nominating them smack OF
bossism and bad politics.
Bro. Haberlein was dubbed the "In~
diam by the crowd who couldn't use
him. Oscar will have them crawling
to him on their bellies before the cam
paign is over.
The gang was bound to have harmony
if 1t had to be manufactured.
The way to have harmony Is to carry
the unruly ones out Of the convention.
The Kiowa and Medicine Lodge p.
M. g were not in the convention but
they were right on hand to make sug-
gestions and most effectually WELD the
party lash.
Harry Glenn thought it would be a
good idea to put fence around Medi-
cine Lodge so as to get all candidates
from the town. We admit that the
town did well. We got s out of the II.

We were talking few days ago with
Fred Liebst, of Mumford, who is well
acquainted with l.. G.. Turner who is
now the republican candidate for coun-
ty attorney of Pratt county. Fred is a
consistent socialist and he and Mr..
Turner were both members of tha So
cialist club at Mumford. He does not
understand how his friend can become
the candidate of the republican party
after having denounced 1t as he used to
in socialist meetings. Speaking of the
Cresset's attempt to ceny the fact that
Lynn was socialist in this county,
Fred suggested that the editor of that
sheet ought to have his glasses fitted
again so that he might see the truth.
He thinks if he gets far enough along
so that he can see it under any and all
circumstances. he may eventually fall
into the habit of telling it on special
occasions, at least.

The ring gave Judge Lester few on
the first ballot when there was no dam
ger of nominating him. On the second
they went to Gleason, their man. Shan.
non was sandwiched in to keep Lester
out on the first ballot. They realized
that therein lied the only danger of his
nomination.
7. l.. Lake was nominated for coun-
ty superintendent by acclamation.
The set screws on the machine were
again frightened for the register of deeds
nomination. z. G. Grigsby nominated
his son, C. L. Grigsby. The old gen.
tleman made au eloquent appeal. Said
he had been faithful delegate In all
the county conventions for 16 years,
had worked, early and late for the sue
cess OF the ticket and thought that now
was the time for the reward. w. l..
Bragg, the ring candidate, was nomi-
mated by Sam Griffin who was not a del
egate. It was a poor privilege, but Sam
seemed to enjoy it. The ballot resulted
81 for Grigsby and AZ for Bragg. And
Grigsby silently meditated: What
shall 1t profit man if he gain his home
delegation and lose the Big Four" Mr..
Grigsby suddenly discovered that his
delegation was not seated because he
was loved, but because Messrs. Frame
and Bucklin were hated more.
The convention INDUCED In a little
horse play on coroner and finally NOM
mated DR.. Moore by exclamation. J.B.
Gano and J. w. DeGeer nominated each
other, and Sharon presented the name

GLEANINGS.

It's hard to keep a good man down.
Boone Kinkaid was ''unanimously"
nominated tor constable. The Medi.
cine Lodge delegation could only give
him III delegates for sheriff, but he,
got 'er solid for constable.
G. l.. Grigsby, candidate for register
of deeds, was delegate from his town
ship and he also carried a proxy from
McAdoo. He was onto his job but salt
couldn't have saved him.
Editor Haberlein, the staunch repub-
lean of kiowa, was there In his pro.
fessional capacity. He was elected as
an alternate from Kiowa but he declin-
ed the honor. He will support the tick
ct but he will do it Independent of the
machine.
w. T. Collins was a candidate for
probate judge but he withdrew early
Saturday morning. He said it was no
use bucking the machine.
The Kiowa boys came up with a de.
termination to nominate Lane and
they did some cute work. Kinkaid's
friends tried to make it appear that
Dick Wilson was Kiowa man but the
Klowa crowd wouldn't stand for it a
moment. Dick was between two fires
for a while, but fortunately he didn't
have any opposition. The only thing
that worried him was TO decide on his
residence.
|. The Big never took their eyes off of
Oscar Haberleln. He has them in his
power in the matter of state patronage
and they fear him.
Several delegates remarked that Neal
Grigsby ought to have stayed out of it
il he could not get some one besides
the "old man" to nominate him. Quite
a slam.
The bosses, a few excepted. stood on
the outside this time, but they had IT
cooked and primed before the conven.
ton was called to order.
The Frame Bucklln delegation might
have been seated if they had made the
right kind of promises but they main
tanned their manhood and went down.
Laying all political feeling aside. we
regret that Mr.. Bucklin was not given
more respectful treatment. He Is a
man against whom nothing can be urg-
ed and he is highly honored by even his
most rabld political enemies. The
service he has rendered his party. his
high honor and strict integrity entitled
him to better treatment at the hands
of the convention.
The band wagon is mean vehicle.
The fellows who were run over would
have profitted by getting in when the
Index named the ticket two weeks ago.
Eb Rule got there in nice shape and
did not have to squander VS. to an
nounee himself either. This is the
time that the late bird got the worm.
Ed Sample was as cool as cucumber.
He did not even come up to see how it
was going. He didn't announce his
candidacy with any expectation of re-
ceiving the nomination.
Kiowa and Medicine Lodge did a
good job of PASSING so that they
could cast their votes in the most prof

For surveyor Jim Gano nominated
w. I. Wheat, of Medicine Lodge. I.
B. Hayes, CT Sharon township, nom.
mated the present surveyor, e. c. Da.
Wis, his neighbor. It required two bal
lots to settle it. The first stood 3S each.
The second was 40 to 36 in favor of
Wheat. The nominee, if elected, is
we'll qualified to fill the Office provided
there IS no surveying to do. If there
should be. he will be in the shape of
the hog that had to climb tree. And
the machine hummed merrily on.
The teamster applied some more lu.
bricant at this moment because the
sheriff nomination was next In order.
Next to representative this was the
most important contest and as the pri-
maries had settled the first, 1t remain
ed for the convention to knock down
and drag out the fellows in this con-
test who didn't have the grace to sub
side. F. Nj. Lane, of Kiowa, was NOM
mated by j. w. Metz in a rlce smooth
talk. Comrade John Mccoy, of this
city, nominated e. 3. K,nkaid in an
off hand way. The Lallot resulted in

Boone defied the elements and conf
IDENTIFY affirmed he had the necessary
votes to win. When 1t was over, he
was convinced that there were at least
II liars in that convention. The Index
has been trying to locate the man in
Medicine Lodge who could see each
candidate with only one eye, but so far
the search has been unsuccessful. And
the vehicle sped on.
G. D. Rackley was II ext imposed upon
by being nominated for clerk of the
district court. Some of the machine
men didn't like Rackley and wanted to
push Will Stranathan In but Will
WASH { out for empty honOrS, hence
Clark was victlmized.
For treasurer, MP. Dewitt, of Shar.
on, nominated E. s. Rule. j. Nj. Hall,
of Valley, presented the name of G. A.
Bucklin, of Elm Mills, who had been
osLraclsed. Mr.. Bucklin was there to
nip it in the bud. He declined in gen.
tlemanly speech. and the convention
for the first and only time, applauded-
for the reason, we suppose, that they
had effectually squelched the best man
before convention and one of the most
faithful republicans in the county.
And the wheels turned again.
Nominations for probate Judge were
called and here is where Judge Lester
and John Shannon got the high ball.
G. S. Gleason, was nominated by D. O.

presented the name of Ben Wadsworth
and the ballot resulted 13 to 20 in favor
of the latter. Mingona and Medicine

THE WINE EXPERT.
By Sight Smell and Taste He Tests
 the Quality of Liquors.


 Many hotels and restaurants of imnort- ance as well as many wholesale and re- tail liquor dealing firms employ a wine expert. It is the duty of this man to pass upon the quality of all wines. brandies, whiskeys and other alcoholic bevera ges handled by his house. He works with an empty stomach. and he makes his tests through the three senses of sight, which tests the spirits color and clarity: smell which tests its odor. and taste. the most important sense. which tests its flavor To keep these senses at once delicate and sharp. the expert must not use tobacco, and in the use of liquors he must be tenn perate to the point of teetotaIism.
 An old story told among wine experts is 10 the effect that wise man once said that all senses should be gratified when good wine is used. "One sees the heauti- ful color and smells the rich bouquet and tastes the delicious flavor. and feels the exhilaratinE effect. but the sense of hear ing has no share In the feast" To make this good he touched his glass to that of
