Topeka, March IS-Miss Rosa
N. Rhodes of Meade county, in the
southwest short grass country of
Kansas, wants to christen the battle
ship "Kansas" when it is launched.
She is bright girl of IL years and
is the chosen "Daughter of the Regi-
ment" by the old soldiers of that
section.-Kansas City Star.
The above item appeared in the
Kansas City Star of the above date.
1t is fact that Miss Rosa desires
the above honor and it would please
many people of this section of the
state to see the honor conferred up
on her.
DR.. ]. G. Oldham, of Wichita, has
been up on his Artesian ranch for
the past week. He is well pleased
with the progress made by his son
Gordon in improving the place which
they just purchased last spring. 1t
is their intention to make one of the
finest horse and cattle ranches in the
west. They expect to raise high
grade cattle also trotting and draft
horses. They will put in race track
and be prepared to train horses rails
ed on the ranch also horses from
the east. 1t has been suggested to
US that a fair be held at that place
the coming fall. We think the ide a
good one and hope fair associa
ton will be formed to take hold of
the matter.
A republican primary has been

says he does not want a repetition oi
the affair of two years ago. This
means that he wants to take part in
naming a ticket this time which will
win at the election on April 3. A:
will be remembered, two years age
Capt. Niles inspired a movement
which nominated a ticket. The
ticket was defeated at the election.
Fuhr was very sore about the defea
and now he wants to to try to be or
the winning side. 1t occurs to u!
that independent nominations of the
major portion of the present city of
ficers would be the proper proceed
ure. There is not, and should no
be any politics dragged into our city
affairs. The present officers are gooo
r enough. They have given us gooC
, administration and have finished
, system of waterworks which woulc
be credit to city of 5000 inhab
itants. We see no good reason fo
turning them down, after they hay
I gotten the city business in the shap
they have. In fact it would be det

, city to elect others in their places
LET the old officers be placed on a
