FOR STATE TREASURER.

The democrats of Barton county
will ask the conventions at Topeka
next week to consider the claims of a
Barton county democrat for the nom
nation to the Office of state treasurer.
We believe we have, in the person of
Judge w. P. FEEDER, man who will
poll more votes for that Office than
any other man who can be named
this year. He possesses magnificent
qualifications for that position, is just
entering the prime age of usefulness.
and is of unquestioned honor and in
tegrity. He has served in many posi-
lions of difficult responsibilities, and
is an accurate and rapid accountant.
AS the name indicates, Judge FEEDER
is of German parentage and speaks
that language as fuently as the Eng
lish language. He is serving his
second term as Probate Judge of
Odl tOtI SOohiJ; AaFldS OS@h SiSSeSN
to a second term by the largest ma
jority ever given a. candidate in this
county.
Judge FEEDER is at present associat-
ed with the writer in the publication
of the Barton County Democrat and
the Great Bend Daily Rustler, and I
want to pledge my democratic friends
of Kansas they will be recognizing
one of the most wide-awake, able and
trustworthy young democrats should
they place him on the state ticket.
Another thing I want to call the
attention of my friends to, and that is
the fact that Barton county is most
eminently entitled to recognition,
by reason of tae unfailing loyalty and
steadfastness of her democratic
voters. The election returns always
show Barton county in the democrat
ic column. Give US the position we
ask on the state ticket and we will
feel that our answering loyalty to
the principles of democracy is recog-
nized by our friends.

JUDGE ALTON B. Parker will be
elected as president of the United
States. Just as well make up your
mind to that result right now. He
will carry~the solid SOUTH and
enough of the doubtful states to put
him in, although he will not get the
number of votes in the nation as were
cast for William J. Bryan four years
ago. Democrats and populists of
Kansas, if they use the same amount
of political sagacity as has been used
in other states will pull together on a
state ticket, with a reasonable show
of success, and will thus place them
selves in good position to accomplish
something for economic reforms in
future years, after the country has
gone through another financial OBJ
ject lesson" There's as sure to come
a readjustment of financial affairs
during the next three. or four years as
day is to follow night, and it will
stand our people in hand to maintain
united front to meet that situation.

WHO IS THE HAPPlEsT?

He is the huppiest who thinks wise
ly, acts nobly, who does the best he
can in the place he is in, without a
murmur, and who always seeks to
benefit his fellow man raeher than do
him an injury. Such a man would
live long and be happy. Such people
we have in Kansas. They have plod-
ded along through the heat and the
cold, through the wet and the dry,
through the calm and the storm, I'M
til they are able to take life easier,
and enjoy it better.
They know good thing vixen they
see it, and they know when it is right
ly priced to them. 1t is for this rea-
son that so many are facing out the
John Deere disc pillow at $50 apiece.
The Acme, Keystone and the Woods
mowers, So to IS cheaper than the

for $40, a spring wagon for S51,
two-seated carriage for $50, a road
wagon for S33, hay rake for $18,
bicycle for SIT, kodak for S1.25,
good cook stove for s13, a good car
pet for so cents yard, good 9x12
rug for 81, good dinner and tea
set for So, tea set for SIS, a good
watch for SIS, and good paint for 81
gallon.
These are prices that tell, because
the goods are back of them, and we
are back of the goods.
We have four traction engines that
we have rebuilt, that we will sell at
very low price.
We sell the best gang plows on

AN AMlCABLE SETTLEMENT
Will Be Made for Sundays Damage
on the Bridge Breakwater.

The damage that was inflicted upon
the breakwater in the river above the
bridge, Sunday, is more than was at
first thought, though just how much
cannot yet be estimated. The captain
of the schooner which did the damage
was seen, yesterday, but would have
but little to say.
The bridge committee of this city
and Randolph, under whose head the
management of the draw comes, saw
the captain of the schooner and he
seemed most ready to do all that was
right. He asked for a short delay be-
fore any action was taken, as he had
notified the owners of the schooner and
expected them here at once. He
thought that they would settle for the
damage and thus save court expenses
for both. Underwriters will be sent
here to estimate on the damage before
further action is taken.
The schooner, which tied up at the
Randolph ice house after the accident,
proceeded to her destination at Au-
gusta, yesterday, and though she WAS
badly damaged, she was not leaking
a drop. The terrible force with which
she came in contact with the pier can
be judged when it was known that one
of the anchors was broken off as clean
as though it had been a pipe stem. All
state that had the last schooner been
heavily loaded, a far worse accident
would probably have happened and
both would have sunk by the pier.
