TWO CITY TICKETS.
Medicine Lodge Will Have Another
Red.Hot City Election April 3rd.


called to order by ]. N. Tincher.
H. II. Case was elected chairman
and Otis Lorton secretary. A res
olution was introduced by Mr..
Tincher condemning the manner in
which the ticket nominated by pc
tition the previous Tuesday, was
gotten up, and also pledging the
men nominated at the caucus, to
use every means to secure a north
and south railroad and to reduce
the city's bonded Indebtedness.
The present city administration
was endorsed and a night marshal
favored.
The following ticket was nomi-
mated by acclamation:
For Mayor-Seward l. Field.
For Councilmen-W.R. Forsyth,
r. H. Clay, Geo. w. Hendrickson,
H. T. Woodward and Jas. Dobbs.
For police judge-W. T. Collins.
An executive committee to fill
vacancies and conduct the cam
paign was appointed consisting of
Otis Lorton, J. N. Tincher, Jerry
Gano, S. p. Garrison and L. D.
Sparks.
1t was decided to call it the
"Citizens Ticket" This is the
same name as the one adopted by
the temperance people few days
before. The meeting claimed it
constituted the regular "Citizens"
organization which nominated the
last Citizens ticket and that in any
event a ticket nominated by peti-
tion must go on the ballot under
the name of "Independent." The
petitioners, however, are not in a
hurry to concede the point and
have referred the question to emf
nent counsel.
4 There were forty citizens at the
meeting, seven of whom were la
dies.
One Of the candidates for coun-
cilman-Jas. Dobbs-states that
he will not accept the nomination.
The other ticket is as follows:
For Mayor-A. D. Shaw.
For Councilmen-J. P. Hall, w.
S. Benehel, VIM. Palmer, J.W.Fin-
ley and F. ]. Wadsworth.
For police judge. w. Stevens.
The temperance people, in reply
to the Tincher resolution and the
charge that their method of NOM
ination was unfair, say that they
do not consider it near as rank as
to permit three or four men to fix
up slate and then call formal
meeting to ratify it. They also
cite the fact that the very men who
are now Mortified at the petition
plan of nomination promulgated
that plan few years ago.
The issues are clearly drawn.
The ticket first nominated is strict
ly temperance while the one nomi-
mated by the mass meeting Friday
represents the liberal idea. Each
one contains representative busi-
ness men and there is no room for
a personal campaign against any
man on either ticket. The two
tickets merely represent opposing
ideas and it is for the majority of
the voters to choose between them.
So far as the Index is concerned,
the paper is not in the fight. We
have maintained neutrality in city
politics always and we see no occa-
sion TO change the policy of the pa
per at this time Every voter in the
city is thoroughly informed as
to the position the different can
didates occupy. They are well ac-
quainted with them as neighbors
and citizens and they can cast
their ballots intelligently without
the advice of a newspaper. We
expect to treat both sides fairly
and there our duty ends.

Is This Prosperity?
The Commoner.

The Commoner.
Weare told by the republicans that
the country is enjoying a period Of
unexampled prosperity. 1t might be
pertinent to ask why the increasing
hostility between labor and capital
and why the extraordinary accumu,
lation OF wealth in the hands OF q
few. The republican platform oflsst
year offered no remedy and promised
no relief. But the object of this edi-
torial s to call attention to another
development OF modern business,
namely the employment of 80 many
girls in store and factory. Go into
any great city or factory town at
morning or at evening and you will
find an army OF gills with dinner
basket in hand trudging to and from
work. Is the country prosperous
when the girls have to become bread
winners at an early age In order to
piece out the family income? Surely
under favorable conditions the head
oithe family ought to be able to sup.
port his wife and children. Often
the work is OF a kind too severe for
women. What is the effect to be on
future generations? Women may
dlsplace men in the shop but men
can not take woman's place in the
home. Any system that lessons wo-
mems ability to discharge the duties
OF wife and mother must in the end
bring a harvest of disasters. Will
the republicans insist hat this fore
ing OF women into the fields OF re
munerative lobor is a step in the line
OF progress? Ifnot what plans have
they for the Improvement Of present
industrial conditions?

incubation OF soil OF seed.-Nu.
merous experiments have demon
strated that some OF the soils OF
Missouri do not naturally possess
the bacteria which are essential to
the growth OF alfalfa. Unless alfalfa
has been successfully raised on like
soil in the neighborhood the safest
plan will be to inoculate either the
seed or the soil. II it is desired to
inoculate the seed application for
the material should be made by
letter to the Bureau of Plant In
dustry, Washington, D. c., stating
how much seed is TO be sown. The
directions for using the material
will be sent with the package and
should be closely followed. The soil
may be inoculated by sowing on the
field about 200 pounds OF soil taken
from a field where alfalfa has been
successfully grown, or what will do
as we'll, soil taken from a field where
sweet clover is growing. To avoid
getting weed seeds scrape off little
OF the top OF the soil, then take up
the soil to a depth Ct four or five
inches. This inoculated soil should
be spread over the field to be sown
as evenly as possible. 1t may be
sown broadcast by hand or may be
mixed with manure and spread with
the manure spreader, and should be
incorporated with the soil by run.

has been spread.
Winter killing.--The plants may be
killed by hard freezing unless thev
are large enough TO become hardy,
hence: the seeding should not be
delayed. The field should not b.
pastured the first year as the top
growth is necessary for winter pro-
lection. The following spring when
the plants get about eight inches
high it will help them to run the
mower over the field which will put
back the weeds and will cause the
alfalfa to branch out and get a better
root growth

time Of harvesting, method OF
curing the hay and the value OF hay

KENTUCKY FUED SLAUGHTER.
Two Fights Result in Four Dead
and Three Dying.

Lexington, KY, Aug. 29.-Four
men are dead and three are dying as
the result OF two ieudal fights near
here. Enmity has long divided the
Millers and the Rawlingses, who
hold almost all the country skirting
the Cincinnati Southern north and
south for three or four miles from
the state line. A band OF the Raw
lings faction, which came north out
OF Tennessee, ambushed Patrick
Miller and his sons, John and Henry
and friend named Johnson near
Alice station. Patrick Miller was
killed by the frst shot fired. A
bullet from a Winchester rifle passed
through his head. The four men
were armed with revolvers. They
dropped behind rocks and fired.
Henry Miller was the only one to
escape alive and his right hand was
shot on. He said that gradually
the Rawlingses began to close In
They took advantage OF every bit OF
cover snd shot when the slightest
target offered. Miller believes his
foes escaped without a wound. His
brother was shot several times, once
through the arm and again in the
LETT shoulder, before he was killed by
a bullet through the breast. John
son was shot from behind.
The second ieudal strife was in
progress at almost the same time ON
the outskirts OF Clay City. 1t was
between the Martins and the Ander-
sons two OF the most numerous
families in Powell county, and was
fought with knives and revolvers.
How many were in the fight the
authorities have been unable to
learn, but it Is said there were about
twenty men. The fighting started
in an unlicensed saloon. The wood
en- walls were pierced by more than
fifty bull ~" lin was killed.
