A. THOMPSON

The opponents of Congressman Curtis
believe that the result of the Jackson
county primaries also practically elm
mates the possibility of the renomina-
ton of Mr.. Curtis. The friends of
Judge Stuart are confident that he will
carry Brown county today, especially
since Jackson went against Curtis.
Jefferson county is conceded to Mr.
Curtis today, but without either Brown
or jackson, in addition to Shawnee,
jefferson, and the soldiers home or
Atchison, he can not be nominated.
The chances now are against his get
ting the soldiers home delegation, and
1t is claimed that Atchison county will
be against him, so that he will go into
the congressional convention with only
Shawnee and Jefferson.

Bailey. On the organization Pratt voted
three for Cole and two for Greer.
Jackson county goes Overwhelmingly
for Judge Case Broderick for congress-
man and w. A. Thompson for railroad
commissioner. This entirely eliminates
A. D. Walker from the race for rail-
road commissioner and gives the ship
pers of the state a chance to get a rail-
road board that will not be largely COLI
trolled by the railroads themselves.
