MIR. Block and the one claimed to
have been sent after the committee
met had nothing to do with the ques-
tion Of holding a conference. All of
which clearly showed that the demo-
cratic congressional committee had
made no move toward holding a con-
ference with the populists and did not
desire our corporation at this time.
Mr.. Petition of Dodge City expressed
the idea animating the democratic
committee when he said in his paper
after the convention had been called:
$50 now from national standpoint
the democrats can do nothing better
than to nominate a democrat and in
case of democrat success in 1904 the
democratic party in this district will
be in line for a fair share OF the Of
fees" To these gentlemen state and
county success are not to Reconsider
ed as desirable when it might be pos
sible by having small and compact
organization of pie hunters to control
the federal patronage of the district.
The convention by resolution unani-
mously endorsed the action of the
pOpulist committee.

our own paper, and make the price of
the four for one year only $1.25.

an amount OF money. The three
papers named, which we club with
our own, are we'll known throughout
the West, and commend thomselves to
the readers favorable attention upon
mere menti0u. The Live Stock Indi-
Gator is the great agricultural aud
live stock Indicator of the West. The
Poultry Farmer is the most practical
poultry paper for the farmer, while
The Special Farmers Institute Edi-

Victor nurdock Nominated.

Just after we had gone to press last
week word was received that Victor
Murdock of Wichita had captured the
congressional nomination at the con-
vention in Great Bend. We gather
from outside sources that the state
administration crowd were set on de-
feating Senator Smith and had decid-
ed to try and nominate first Forsha,
then Price, Branine, Wallace, and
lastly Murdoch, in the order named.
Mr.. Smith made up his mind that the
machine could defeat his nomination
and so made short cut to Murdock
with The whole Leland lbaugh
machine following swiftly after in the
attempt to beat him into the band
wagon, in which they failed. 1t is
reported that Murdock admits that
his nomination was first made certain
by the movement of our senator.
This means that in this senatorial
district particularly and largely in
the congressional district Mr.. Smith
will have to be counseled with by
those desiriug favors of Mr.. Murdock
should he be elected. And it now
looks as though nothing but death
could defeat him. The best that cata
be said of Mr.. Murdock is that there
is no man in Sedgwick county who is
so popular.

JUDGE BABB Matted.
Populist Delegates Met In Hutchiu-
son Last Saturday.

The congressional convention OF
the Peoples Party convened in Hutch
insOn Saturday and unanimously
selected Judge Babb of Wichita AS
our candidate to succeed Chester /.
Long as congressman for this district.
There were about fifty delegates pre-
sent and several candidates who sig
nified their willingness to be the
standard bearer for the party, but
when the name of Judge Babb was
presented all other names were with
drawn and he was nominated by ac
clamation. He is the present chair
been an active worker in the party
for many years, a man of great abili-
ty and unblemished character, who,
should he be elected, would be h
representative the district would be
proud of. The convention was called
to order promptly at IL o'clock by
Chairman Ayers. DR.. e. Bohrer of
Rice was chosen temporary chairman
and e. g. Nettleton temporary secre-
tary. The usual committees were ap-
pointed and then MIR. Ayers was in
vited to give the convention an eX-
ptanatiOn of the reason why the con-
Ventiun had been called as it was and
why there had been no conference
with the democratic committee as to
placing a candidate fOc congress in
the field by joint action of the two
parties. He stated that the call had
been made after corresponding with
the different counties in the district,
as in his judgment faller expression
oould be reached that way than by
calling the committee together. On
the subject of failure to secure har-
hn akotn nH not OIL
the first of March he wrote to Mr..
Wood of the democratic committee
suggesting a conference and received
an answer from Oklahoma in which
Mr.. Wood stated that he was no
longer acting for the democrats and
that he had referred the matter to MIR.
Block, the secretary Of the committee.
MIR. Aver stated that he had received
mo further communication from the
democrats and knew aOthing of their
committee meeting entil he saw the
public call and that our committee
had not received any invitation to
attend. He said he had written to
Stryker Withdrawing his previous
statement that he Stryker) had been
mistaken when he stated that two
letters had been written to MIR. Ayers
by Mr.. Wood in ample time for
conference, anu nau Eurtuef informed
Stryker that when he published such
statement he had deliberately lied.
He further stated uhat he had seen
Mr.. Pitts ard asked an explanation
and that Mr.. Pitts had stated that he
had seen a letter written by Mr..
Wood which stated that he had
written two letters to MIR. Ayers,
one just before the committee met
and one after. So ct was perfectly
plain that the one written just be-
fore the committee met was the one in
which he stated that the letter received
from MIR. Ayers had been referred to

The "ReguIarx" Won Easily.

The annual city election passed off
without fights or funerals Monday.
The insurgents decided that in putting
a ticket in the field they had done
their full duty aud so made no parti-
cular effort to elect. The regular
ticket was left to dts fate by the boss,
who left town to avoid any respOnsi-
bility should it GO down to defeat, and
not having delegated his authority to
anyone else no effort was maze to get
out the vote. In fact the people were
allowed to wander in and out aud
vote just as they pleased. The result
WAS as follows:
Regular-for Mayor, Schnatteriy

Saulsbury's Explanation.

J. G. Salisbury, who is in Jail for
selling whiskey at Lewis, was inter
viewed by a United States officer
Wednesday who wanted to know why
he was selling whiskey without a gov
erntnent license. Salisbury stated
that he did not sell any whiskey and
that he was unjustly convicted. He
also said that the whiskey referred to
in the evidence belonged to another
man who had license to sell in Kins-
ley. Salisbury also claimed that he
had demanded an attorney at his trial
and that he had been refused. The
law does not grant a man counsel in
cases before justice, SO his conten-
tion is of no value. The officer told
aim that he would have to take out Il
government license or he would be
liable to further prosecution when his
term in Jail here had expired. Sauls-
bury denied that he had ever sold
whiskey in the chilli joint. He said
that he was merely working there for
wages and that the whiskey disposed
of there had been sold by the pro-
prietOr.

ERROR IN ALMANAC
Caused Sensation Among Negroes mt
MiIIedgeViIle.


Milledgevine, Ga, Nov. 2S,-SeVeral
days ago many of the negroes of this
community were considerably agitated
by a report that the world was coming
70 an end. It was predicted that the
world would suddenly be in darkness
at about l o'clock in the day. When
questioned as to the source of this
startling information. one ignorant ne
gro girl stated that the Bible said so"
Upon further investigation, it has been
found that the report originated not
from the Bible, but from Grier's alma
nae. A typographical error in the al
manac made it say that the sun would
set one minute after l o'clock; some
nischfevous person, noticing the error,
started the report, which, in the minds
of few ignorant negroes soon became
the gospel truth"
