Tuesday is for full state ticket and
members of the legislature that sell
ects the successor of Senator Hanna.
For the first time in Ohio the two
parties have had nominees for sepa-
tor. John II. Clarke of Cleveland and
Senator Hanna have canvassed the
entire state for senator and the sena-
torial fight has predominated over
state affairs.
Mayor Tom l.. Johnson, the demo
cratic candidate for governor. ana
other democratic speakers have made
Hanna the target for their attacks
While Hanna and Johnson are not
candidates for the same place. yet the
fight has been one throughout between
these two men. The republican
speakers have had little to say eX-
cept about Johnson and the demo

IRRIGATION in NORTH DAKOTA
Bureau in Charge OF the Work OF irrigation
in North Dakota Calls Attention to Pro-
ieCtS Now Under Consideration.

Washington. d. c., Nov. lin re-
sponse to the requests of citizens of
North Dakota, the U. S. Geological
Survey has been conducting prelimi-
nary investigation of certain sections
of that state with view of ascertain
ing the advisibility of constructing
irrigation works. An especially i'm
portant piece of reconnaissance work
has just been comqleted on both sides
of the Yellowstone River from Glen
dive, Montana, to its confluence in
North Dakota with the Missouri
This valley, lying in Montana and
North Dakota, is described as one of
the prettiest in the west, with soil
of unsurpassed fertility Just back
of the valley on each side of the river
are large areas of grazing lands
During the years of ample rainfall
large crops are grown in the valley
without irrigation. proving the pro-
ductiveness of the soil Ordinary
seasons are too dry for successful
j farming without irrigation The sur
vey was started opposite Terry with
a view Of taking out a canal at that
point and continuing it to the Mis-
souri, River. This survey provided
that nearly as much land could be
covered and at much less cost. by

preliminary survey is almost com
pleted, and when finished the practi-
cability of the project will be deter
mined.
The rapid increase of settlers in the
western or arid portion of North Da-
been unnoticed by the Survey, whose
efforts are being directed to secure
for them an ample supply of water
against the occurrence of years of in
sufficient rainfall. Owing to the un-
usual problems presented. the work
must necessarily be slow, as it will
require very careful consideration of
method and cost The Missouri River
is the principal source of water sup
ply for the region in which irrigation
will be required; owing to its slight
fall in the state, gravity canals are
practically impossible unless they
head in Montana Such preliminary
work as has been done shows that
such diversion is possible. but expen-
sive. and only detailed surveys can
settle the question of its practicability
An investigation is being made OF
the possible utilization of the Mis-
souri, by pumping plants in sections

JUST BEFORE THE ELECTIONS
Prophesies of the Campaign Managers in the
Several States for the Elections TOmOr=
r0w===Greatest Interest in the City Elec=
ton in New York City.

New York. Nov. "A day before
the municipal election of 1903, we'll
informed men on either side of the
struggle find themselves unable to pre-
dict the result. 1t is expected that
the election will be very close and
that a few thousand votes will decide
whether Seth Low or George b. Nc
Clellan will be at the head of the
city's government for the next two
years William S. Devery, who is
running independently, is not regard
ed seriously as a candidate.
All the leaders have issued estim-
ate of large majorities for their tick
cts. Charles F. Murphy claimed the
election OF the Democratic ticket by
100 1000 R. Fulton Cutting declared
that Low will be elected by $4,000,
and even Devery said that his election
was certain 1t is known. however.
that none of them has confidence in
the published estimates and that eth
er side looks for the election of its
candidate by only a small plurality
The fate of the minor candidates for
controller and president of the board
of aldermen especially, is even more
in doubt. A Democratic majority in
the borough of Manhattan is generally
regarded as probable. and the fusion
the other boroughs being in doubt.
In Brooklyn the fusionists are claim
ing 10000 plurality, but it is known
that the more conservative estimate
places it at $1,000 to 10000. Mr.. Muir
ply. leader of Tammany hall, has is
sued an estimate of $4,000 plurality
in Manhattan. but IL IS said that he
does not count on more than $4,000
to 3S.OOO The combined result prom
ises to be so close that the votes
Devery draws from the Tammany
strength in Manhattan may decide the
elction one way or the other.
Not only the return of the demo
Gratis to the control of the citys gov
eminent but also the leadership o
Murphy in Tammany all, is involved
in the struggle Murphy. it is gener
ally believed. was placed in the lead
ership by Richard Croker. and it i!
thought that defeat would mean hi:
deposition.

MISREPRESENTATION Democrats and
republicans claim the election of their
candidate for governor. The demo-
Gratis claim William A. CASTOR will ov-
ercome the republican plurality and
the republicans predict the election
of John L. Bates by $4,000 to $4,000.
Nebraska-Only three state officers
are at stake in the election Chair
man Lindsay predicts the success OF

majority.
kentucky-J. c. w. Beckham and
Col Morris Belknap are the demo
cratic and republican nominees res
pectively. Democrats will carry Louis
Vile by 5000 to 5000. but the repub-
licans claim they will come to the
city with more than enough to offset
this majority.

| John Collingwood is again in
town trying to get corner on land.
Ed Akers drives rubber tire bug
gy and a 2-3o horse since his return
from Kansas City.
Miss Bertha Maxwell is here and
is having her homestead broken out
and will sow same to barley in the
spring.
Some Menonites from central Kan
sas have been locking at land around
Plains, and colony will probably
be settled near here in the near
future.
Mr.. Silvers. from Isabel, the own
er of large blowing outfit was in
town the first of the week looking
the country over with a view of
coming out in the spring to break
prairie. He also filed on a home
stead while here.
And remember this is figuring on a
basis of the general average for IS
years, including drouths, failures,
cyclones, and all the evils that are
supposed to befall this country.
And this is wheat alone. If every
person in Kansas should drive a
coach and-four to the feast spread
by Meade County, the barley pro-
duced would feed all the horses,
while the alfalfa and kaffir corn
would fatten all the cattle and hogs
they left at home. This does not
include the species of swine known
as the political hog, however.
We have taken some pains to dig
up musty records, and do a little
figuring on the crop of Meade Coun-
ty, and we find that during the IS
years that this county has been or
ganized, there has been sown to
wheat a total of only 10000 acres,
or an average of only 1878 acres
each year. The total yield for that
time is inround numbers 1900, 900
bushel, or practical average of 10
bushel per acre, for every acre sown.
Figuring on this basis, if all the till
able land in this county were sowp
to wheat for one year the crop har-
vested would furnish bread to feed
the entire population of the state for
six months. If the wheat raised
we're shipped in one tram it would
extend from Plains, to Minneola.

a Terrible Accident

There was a horrible accident
near. Pretty Prairie yesterday after
noon which resulted in the death of
William Bradburn and I. B. Moore,
the former being instantly killed and
the lstterdying at 7 o'clock last night.
They were both injured while at
tempting to make a coupling be-
tween a thresher and engine; Mr..
Moofe the engineer, accidentally
causing the trou BILE.
These gentlemen, with others,
were esrunning threshing outfit for
Isaac Hancock and they were
threshing at the farm of Elijah
Nelson, about two miles north of
Pretty, Prairie. They were just get
ting feady to couple the engine to the
separator and Engineer Moore was
on the platform Lacking the machine
up when, in some manner, he slipped
and fell through trap door in the
platform. In falling he accidentally
pulled the throttle wide open and,
as the engine was already backing
up, il started with a terrific speed,
striking the separator with force
enough to break the front end of
the machine pretty badly.
Bradburn was ready to make the
coupling and was between the separ-
ator and the engine.when they came
together. He was knocked down
and crushed badly, the engine
breaking his head and killing him
almost instantly. Moore was partly
under the engine and the separator
and was also crushed badly. His
skull was cracked and he suffered
terrible pain. Physicians were sum-
moned at once and he was taken
to his home. Nothing could be done
for him and he died at 7 O'Clock
last night.
The other employees of the thresh-
ing outfit stopped the engine as
soon as>was possible for them to do
so but they could do nothing to pre-
vent the accident, nor nothing to re-
lieve. the terrible pain Moore was
in from the e-irst.-Hutchinson News.
The above appeared in the as
sociated press dispatches last Satur-
day. Mr.. 1. B. Moore IS former

He was higly esteemed by all his
acquaintances and his many friends

death.
