is in as good condition as it was when
the city bought it. This point will
have to be determined by experts. The
feeling is growing very strong with the
city councilmen that a hydraulic eng1-
neer will have to be employed to
make a report on the condition of the
plant before the city will be prepared
to act intelligently in the matter. Such
action will probably be proposed at the
next council meeting.
The recent fire proves more conclu-
sively than ever the imperative neces-
sity for the city owning the plant.

He was one of the most forceful fig

POLITICAL GOSSIP
Congressman Miller VIII Be
Renominated Tomorrow.
No Opposition to His Nomina-
tion Has Developed.

Tomorrow afternoon the Republican
congressional convention in the Fourth
district will meet at Emporia and re-
nominate Congressman ]. NJ. Miller for
congress. There will be no contest
whatever, and Miller will be named by
reclamation. The only person in the
Fourth district who is opposing Mil
Ter, as far as is known. is Colonel
Thomas Benton Murdoch of Ell Dorado,
and Colonel Murdoch will evidently
have to postpone Miller's defeat another
two years.
1t is quite likely that Murdock's pres
ent opposition to Miller may be as
suaged by electing him as a delegate to
the national Republican convention. He
is one of the numerous candidates in the
Fourth district. William Martindale of
Emporia is another. J. r. Henderson of
Wabaunsee county is a candidate for
presidential elector in the Fourth dis
trict.
The convention will not meet until 2
o'clock in the afternoon, but 1t will not
last very long unless there is too much
speech making. There will be lis dele
gates in the convention, apportioned as

Parker's Mistake.

In his speech of acceptance, Judge
Parker said of antitrust legisla-
ton: What is needed is not so
much other and different laws, as
officials having both the DISPOSE
ton and courage to enforce exist
ing laws
Oh, no, that is not the need, for
the country has an official of that
kind in Theodore Rooevelt. Wit.
ness what that democratic paper,
the New York World, said on this
point the day after the Supreme
Court confirmed the decision in the
Northern Securities suit:
The antitrust law was framed
by "a republican, was passed by a
republican house and a republican
senate and was signed by a repub-
lican president.
The law remained a dead letter
on the statute books during the
second term of Grover Cleveland. a
democratic president. Through
those four years of democratic ad-
ministration al appeals and all eff
forts of the World to have the law
enforced were met with sneers,
jeers and open contemyt from a
democratic attorney general, Rich
ard Olney, who pretended that the
law was unconstitutional, and who
would do nothing toward prosecut-
ing the violaters of it.
THE first effort to enforce the
law was made by Theodore Roose-
welt, a republican president. The
first attorney general to vigorously
prosecute offenders of the law was
a republican attorney general, Phi
lander c. Knox"

Report of Board of Regents.
(Evergreen.)

(Evergreen)
The Board of Regents met Monday
and Tuesday and prepared their biennial
report to the Governor and Legislature
Appropriations for much-needed addi-
tons to the College were recommended
The most important and necessary of
these additions are, new building to re-
place old College Hall, an addition to the
mechanical building and equipment for
the same, and an increase in size of the
College farm.
Everyone knows the bad condition of
College Hall and how much we need the
new building. College Hall was built
twelve years ago, as temporary struc-
ture. 1t was intended to last only few
years until new College Hall could be
built When Science Hall was built, it
was found necessary to move College
Hall from its old site, it being in the way
of Science Hall.
The building then was in such condi-
ton that the Hon. John B. Allen, then a
regent, was in favor of tearing it down.
On account of a congestion of students,
however, it was found necessary to keep
the building. 1t was moved to its pres
ent site, and although badly racked in
moving, has been used as a classroom
building ever since. 1t was intended to
be temporary structure only, and on
account of its cheap construction, and of
being racked in moving, is dangerous in
high wind. 1t is cold in winter, there
being no means of ventilation except by
open windows. 1t is fre-trap, with no
means of escape except narrow, rickety
stairs. The Board of Regents has asked
for an appropriation of $40, 900 to replace
this rickety structure with three story
brick building occupying about twice the
space of the present one. The growth of
the College makes the larger building
necessary.
The Mechanical Building has been in
adequate because of the rapid increase OF
students in wood and iron working. It
is proposed to run the present walls up
and make twostory structure of the
building. This could be done very
cheaply because of the present fiat roof
For this and new supplies and equipment
SIS, 900 is asked
Because of the rapid growth of the
College along the lines of experimental
agriculture, horticulture, stockraising,
dairying and Veterinary Science, the
present farm is entirely too small With
40 acres in orchard and so in experiment
al plats, only about 100 acres remain for
farming and stock raising. The law re.
quires the College to give special instruc-
ton relative to the horse, COW, sheep and
swine. For this purpose it is necessary
to keep large number of animals; &C
head OF cattle are necessary for instruc
ton in the various breeds. Many more
must be kept for dairy and experimental
purposes. The Veterinary Department
also must keep number of animals ioi
experimental work. The College has
been forced to lease so acres for agricul
ture and 20 for the Veterinary work
Considering the rapid growth of the
College and the splendid work done by
the Agriculture and Veterinary Depart
ments, an addition of a quarter section t.
our present farm is none too large.

Charles Brown Shot at oakesdale.


Reese Brown of this city was
called to Oakesdale Monday by the
news that his brother, Chas. Brown,
had been seriously injured in a
shooting scrape by Frank Lewis.
The Oakesdale Tidings gives the
following story of the shooting:
Gas the sequel to a feud which
started about year ago between
the two parties, Charley Brown,
one of Oakesdale's most favorably
boys, lies seriously wounded at St.
Luke's hospital in Spokane, and
Frank Lewis, a former proprietor
of the billiard hall, is lodged in the
county Jail, charged with assault
with intent to commit murder.
at seems that about year ago
Brown and Lewis got into an alter
cation, and at that time Lewis gave
Brown to understand that if he
(Brown) ever mixed up with him
again there would be something
doing. All went quietly between
the two men until last Saturday
evening, at which time Brown took
Lewis sister Ia young lady II or
IS years of age) from home to
church. Evidently Lewis had been
told that his sister was in Browns
company, for no sooner had the
couple arrived at the gate of the
young lady's home, than Lewis APP
peared at the door and with a curse
ordered the young lady into the
house, at the same time drawing
revolver on Brown, saying: You
d-n -- -, if you don't
get out of here Til blow your brains
out Brown being a very peace
able young man and consequently
not armed, at once left.
con Monday morning Brown
came down town to meet Lewis, to
demand an explanation for the vile
language used, and if nessary, to
give him thrashing, and knowing
that Lewis was apt to have a gun
with him, he took his with him to
be on the safe side. The result of
the brief interview was that Lewis
would neither retract nor fight, but
after being slapped in the face by
Brown, quick as flash pulled his
gun shooting Brown in the left
side. With the first shot Brown
fell off the sidewalk into the gutter,
bdt not content with his work,
Lewis almost stood over the pros
trate form of Brown and shot the
second time, the bullet striking his
victim on the side of the head, en-
tering the outer table of the skull
above the left ear, passing along
between the outer and inner table,
and finally was severed by braking
through the inner layer, one half
lodging next to the brain, and the
other half passing through the out
ter layer again out through the
scalp. Had either bullet varied
just a shade in its death bearing
Journey, it would have proved fatal. "
