This gives total of $3,565, to which
must be added the assessments for the
candidates for representative, state
senator, constables, justices of the
peace, city treasurer, township trus-
tees, assessors and the many minor
offices, and the possibility of other ad-
ditional candidates coming out. tbs

would be allowed to escape, and that
If the plans do not go awry fund of
nearly $4,000 will be raised. There is a
possibility that the party may try to
hold the nomination outside of the city
under the old system, but this would
not be according to law.
The candidates, with few excep-
tions, came out in open denunciation
of the act and they say that they will
use the situation in the committee
fight and also in the local postoffice
fight ..

ANOTHER KICK.

A number of anti-Clark committee
candidates went to Republican head
quarters Monday after the books were
opened to enroll their names. Many
of them were from this city in COM
pany with Roscoe McCulloch, Mr..
Clark's rival for chairman. There were
others from Louisville. Massillon and
various parts of the county. They
wanted to register and get away. Ac-
cording TO their statements, Mr..
Clark informed them that no commit
teemen would be enrolled that day,
and in spite of the protests he stuck
to the announcement, although candi-
dates for other offices came in and
their names were received. This made
the aspirants for the committee angry
and they Joined the disgruntled candi-
dates and the air was blue and sui
phurous around the city all day.
Stories of all sorts were going and
the fact was drawn out that the coun-
ty chairman Lad at the committee
meeting last week paid the Massillon
committeeman and other west enders
$3.50 each to attend the committee
meeting, while the innocents from AL
lance and other east end points who
were expected to be all right without
any dope, were allowed to pay their
own way. One man from Massillon
stated at the court house that he had
received Clarks personal check for
$3.50 for the Massillon bunch.
DRAWING OF NAMES. s-
There was also dissatisfaction mani
tested that in the drawing Of names

1t was stated that these excessive
assessments were made without call

1t was the act Of the machine and has
widened the breach between the party
workers and the bosses, and on all
sides there are threats of vengeance.

the Republic, which convenes at Den.
yer on September 4th, 1905, approach

executive committee, recently attend.
ed meeting Of the general passenger
agents Of thirty.five of the leading
railroads OF the country, held at Chi.
cago for tue purpose Of considering the
matter OF transportation OF the Grand
Army. and it was there estimated that
the attendance would be from 125,OOC
to 200.
General Cook also attended the re
cent Illinois Encampment, held at
Rockford, and was there informed that
the attendance from Illinois alone
would number 2500O. Ample accom-
modations have been provided for al!
who will come, including all visitors,
1t is earnestly hoped that all Colorado
comIades who can possibly come will
be In Denver during the Encampment,
as it will be one Of the grandest assem-
blages Of the old veterans ever held III
the country.
Arrangements have been made with
every hotel In Denver whereby it is
guaranteed to the executive commit.
tee that there shall be no advance on

The Humidity of The ReinbeII.

'A' luHituIty VI 1 ne lIelNNett.
Aside from the unusual amount of
ram which has fallen all over the
great plains Of eastern Colorado this
spring am convinced after nearly
t"cnyt years Of obsei vatiun that eli
inatic conditions In northeastern Col
orado at least are changing. Where
formerly hot winds from the south
west in the summer time were as
much expected and dreaded by the
fanchmen as simeon by the tropical
navigator, now they are almost un-
known. This change is nscribed by
many to the vagaries Of our Colorado
weather but this is not the reason.
The territory included in part of the
counties of Sedgwlck, Phillips, and a
part of Yuma is almost surrounded by
lines Of irrigation bitches on the north
west and south. Coiacidcnt with the
establishment Of this irrigation winds
come from the northeast, east and
southeast during nearly all the sum
mer season.
Observations were made by a cores
rondent during the years 1903 and 1904
During the former year the wind blew
from the northeast, east and southeast
l61 days and durin5 the latter year 1856
days. 1t may be that the better and
more intelligent methods OF cultiva-
ton and a greater storing OF the mois-
ture from rains and snow In the earth
may assist, but am led to believe
that the fact the lines OF irrigation
around US and the steady evaporation
constantly going on largely contribute
toward the climatic conditions which
exist now and have existed for the last
eight or ten years in the cornbelt
country. This has brought about
very desirable condition, with more
agriculture, more farmers, smaller
buuches Of cattle, higher grade Of
stock, and better feed during the win
ter season. Still the price OF our farm
land has not yet reached the top moth.
There is no boom in prices and for the
good Of the people We hope there will
be no boom. The value Of farm land
is still gradually increasing and we be-
lieve that even at the advanced price
at which it is changing hands it Is
hood Investment.
Farm lands 10 the states east OF us
have advanced until the man who is
looking for cheap flaming land Is fore
cd to come west to secure it. He can
no, raise as much corn to the acre in
the Colorado rainbelt as in Illinois or
Iowa, but while he would pay from
Sl0O 90 to $4,000 an acre for land in
those states, he can buy farm land in
this country at from IS 90 to $4,000 an
acre. With the improved farm ma.
chinery he can plant and cultivate
more than awice as many acres Of corn
as q farmer in either Of those states,
and when he comes to sell he will re-
ceive the price of corn in Eastern Ne
braska, plus the cost OF laying the Ne
braska corn down here. With careful
farming he can make good profit on
the raising Of wheat and other small
grain. In addition to the farming ad-
vantages OF ouI section he has the
chance to raise stock enough to eat all
the grain that he raises, something
that the small farmer in the states
east OF US can not dow. D. Kelsey in

Friday and Thirteen.

In Great Britain there are two paruc-
ular supcrstitiOns which have probably
the largcst follow liz tAat Friday is an
unlucky day and that thirteen is an un-
lucky number. Fridays bad character
was derived from the fact that it was
the day of our Lords crucifXiOn, as
well as the one Oh which Adam and
Eve ate the forbidden fruit, and like
wise the day Of their death. Sailors
have still Il strong objection 10 begin
ming voyage OH that day, although
modern conditions often make IL im-
perative. In Christian countries, too,
the superstition Of thirteen at dinner
being unlucky and that one Of the din
ers will die before the year is out is
also OF Biblical origin, being revived
from the last supper of our Lord with
his twelve apostles. but the Supcrsti-
ton Is much anterior To christianity.
