following delegates to Wichita: Sen
nett Kirk, J. R. Scott, A. NJ. Canady,
]. r. Classify, c. Y. Smith, Elmer SUIT
ton, Joe ISLANDERS, B. Dickerson and
John Dellfnger, and instructed them for
E. W. Hoch for governor The Bailey
men had no ticket at the primaries and
the convention was composed entirely
of Hoch men. A resolution demanding
the impeachment of J. r. Burton and
demanding as honest Republicans that
Tom Kelly be defeated for state treas
urer was almost unanimously laid on
the table without allowing opportunity
for discussion.
Phillipsburg, Kan, Feb. 1.-THE Re
publicanS of this county held their con-
vention yesterday for the purpose of
electing delegates to the state, con-
greSsfonal, and senatorial conventions
There was no fight in the convention
and everything was harmonious. Reso-
lut1onS were adopted endorsing Presi-
dent Roosevelt's administration and es-
pecially his Panama canal policy. Con-
gresham Reeder was also endorsed
and his denomination for congressman
recommended by the convention. J. F.
Morse of this city was allowed to name
his delegation to attend the senatorial
convention at Smith Center. The con-
vention instructed the delegates TO the
state convention for E. w. Hoch for
governor, and for the balance of the
state officers.
The boss buster movement has Sc
cured the nomination of another Burton
state senator. After a long drawn out
deadlock Senator w. S. Fitzpatrick was
renominated in the Elk Chautauqua
district Tuesday on the 2,076th ballot.
The convention lasted a week.
1t was Elk county's turn to have the
senator and four years ago Fitzpatrick
promised not to be a candidate for
denomination, but because the Elk
county candidate, T. P. Hawkins, had
been a Bailey man while Fitzpatrick
was in the boss buster movement, the
force of the boss buster leaders was
thrown to Fitzpatrick.
Fitzpatrick has always been a strong
Burton man, and it is believed if Bur-
ton is in position to again be a can
didate for the United States senate.
Fitzpatrick will support him. Fitzpat-
rick was president of the senate last
winter.

BOODLING CHARGED.
Scandal Appears in the Illinois
Mine Workers Union.

Chicago. Feb. 17.-Corruption within
the ranks of the United Mine Workers
of Illinois was charged in open con-
vention today by Secretary w. D.
Ryan, who declared delegates were
bribed to secure the passage of a reso-
luton that would create for Chicago
company a monopoly of furnishing
legal talent to represent the miners in
damage suits against the mine oper-
ators.
One miner was directly accused by
name of being one of those who had
been promised compensation if the
measure was passed compelling the
AZ. 900 men engaged in the local mines of
the state to pay in advance 81 each for
a fund to be used for that purpose.

day the stock market was strong. but
the dealings were of no more Importance
than they have been lately and it's i'm
possible to imagine a more complete
apathy on the part of outside interests
toward Wall street speculation how firm
ly this popular feeling is entertained no
one can tell. Professional Wall street
sees ahead no relief from its present sit
uation. On the other hand q disposition
to speculate don't seem to depend on
prices, and it is more or less periodical.
A new element has entered the stock
market on the long side and this leads
to the belief that there will be something
more than the usual three days rally on
covering of shorts.

COOK
LOSES
Supreme Court Holds
La Toilette Ticket
Regular
Must Go On Ballot Under
Republican
Head
Authority of Old Central
Committee Sufficient
in the Premises

Madison, Oct. 5.-Both motions de
nied.-complaint dismissed. This is
the decision of the supreme court
fled this morning, it the suit of S.
A. Cook ct al, plaintiff, VS.. Walter l..
1ouser, secretary of state. In other
words, the motion of the Cook people
for judgment on the pleadings is dis
missed as is also the motion by Mr..
Houser for dismissal of the action
for want of jurisdiction. The effect
of the ruling is to settle the contro-
yersy in favor of the La Toilette wing
of the party. The court, however, de-
clares the proceedings to fall within
it's Jurisdiction, but holds that the law,
sec. 35, statutes of 1898, covers the
case completely. This is the law that
gives the secretary of state the right to
place under the republican designation
on the official ballot the ticket nomi-
mated by the convention regularly
called. In this case, it was the so
called gymnasium, or La Toilette con-
vention. The court holds that the old
state central committee had jurisdic-
ton to proceed as it did.
1t also holds that the decision Of the
national republican convention lis not
of any significance as a guide to the
secretary of state" Further it is held
that it is the duty of the secretary of
state to certify both sets OF nomina-
tons to the various county clerks, but
giving preference to those headed by
Robert M. La Toilette for governor"
Chief Justice Cassoday dissented

CAN DRINK TROUBLE
That's One Way to Get 1T.

Ihat'S one way TO yet AIs
Although they won't admit it many
people who suffer from sick headaches
and other ails get them straight from
the coffee they drink and it is easily
proved if they're not afraid to leave it
to a test as in the case of lady in
COnnellsville.
81 had been sufferer from sick
headaches for twenty-five years and
any one who has ever had bad sick
headache knows what | suffered. Some
times three days in the week | would
have to remain in bed, at other times
1 couldn't lie down the pain would be
so great. My life was a torture, and
if l went away from home for day
l always came back more dead than
alive
Zone day was telling woman my
troubles and she told me she knew that
it was probably coffee caused it. She
said she had been cured by stopping
coffee and using Postum Food Coffee
and urged me to try this food drink.
That's how 1 came to send out and
get some Postum and from that time
I've never been without it, for it suits
my taste and has entirely cured all of
my old troubles. All l did was to
leave off the coffee and tea and drink
we'll made Postum in it's place. This
change has done me more good than
everything else put together.
"Our house was like drug store,
for my husband bought everything he
heard of to help me without doing any
good, but when began on the Postum
my headaches ceased and the other
troubles quickly disappeared. l have
friend who had an experience just
like mine and Postum cured her just
as it did me.
Postum not only cured the head
aches but my general health has been
improved and am much stronger than
before. 1 now enjoy delicious Postum
more than I ever did coffee" Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Greek,
Mich.
"There's a reason" and it's worth
finding out.

Colors Not EASY to see.

What color is least easily seen at a
distance? One would naturally say,
some dull neutral tint, a somber gray
or brown. This has been the conclu-
sion of most military men, and our
brilliant dress uniforms have given
way for practical campaigning to
khaki and other dull colors. Is this a
mistake? Possibly so, according to
the results obtained in recent expert
ments in England. 1t has been found
there that masses of dull color are
very much more conspicuous at a dis
lance than mixtures of bright tints.
For instance, battery of field artil-
lery whose carriages and caissons
were decorted with stripes Of red, blue
and yellow could be made oUt with
difficulty at thousand yards, while
other batteries painted a uniform
brown or drab were easily seen at
great distances It would seem as If
on the same principle, a regiment of
gayly dressed troops might be less
easily visible than one wholly CARRIED
in dull-colored khaki.-Success.
