A Big Hay Record.

Manager Story of the farm OF E. & T.
Fairbanks & Company finishes haying
this week and will store in the FIVE barns
of the corporation over $50 tons of the
finest hay made. This is somewhat
larger than last years harvest and Mr..
Story considers it good average crop.
A force OF IA men have been busy for the
past six weeks making hay, and consid-
ering the weather through June they GER
tainly made good. The big barns in
Fairbanks village are filled clear to the
ridge poles and Mr.. Story has secured
enough hay to feed their 100 head OF
stock until next season. The land was
highly cultivated and some Of the mead
ows along the Sleeper's river yielded
three tons to the acre. The record will
be increased by the rowen crop and it is
believed this farm cuts the largest
amount of hay in Caledonia county.

BURTON CASE IS UP.
Grand jury Will Again Hear Evidence
in St. Louis.

A st. Louis dispatch that.
the case against Senator Burton in the
federal court there will be reopened
by the federal grand jury which was
impaneled Tuesday by Judge Elmer B..
Adams, with a view to returning a new
Indictment against Senator Burton.
The count on which this Indictment
will be sought Will be the of
$500 in ash which Senator Burton re-
ceived in St. LOuis from the Rialto
Grain & Securities company lille
coming home from Washington to
Kansas.
This was the last payment which
Burton received from the Rialto COM
any Four others had preceded it,
but they had been made by check and
had been sent to Senator Burton in
Washington. The United States SUI
rem court decided that these pay
ments We're therefore made in Wash
the jurisdiction for their trial there
fore lay in the District of Columbia.
The conviction of Senator Burton IN
st. Louis for receiving those checks
was therefore reversed because of this
te~chnicaIity.
But his does not apply to the last
payment Of $500 which Senate Bur
ton received. The vice president of
the Rialto company told all about it..
Major Hugh Dennis. president of the
1CAAA GA@AL . 49, 144 ~
represent him in Washington, became
troubled with a mental disorder and
Wen to California, whereupOn the vice
president of the company o charge.
When Senator Burton came through
st. Louis from Washington there was
still $500 due him on his contract
with Major Dennis. The vice presi-
dent decided to dispense with BurtOn's
services and therefore ent out and got
$500 in cash which he paid to Burton.
IA iC nm this D.x--aa IT. that the nav in
dictment is sought, although it was
included in the old case brought
against h Kansas senator.
Major Dennis has died since the
first Burton trial. He testified before
the grand jury which originally mdict-
ed Burton. but he was not put on the
stand in the trial of h case. 1t is
alleged that the Rialto company was a
get-rich-quick concern. Dennis had
trouble with postof1ce department
about it. A st. Louis advertising
agent named Raster was acquainted
with Burton through his defending
professor Weltmer, the Nevada,
Mo, healer. in his troubles with the
pOstoffice department. So when Den
mis- cot into similar trouble Raster
recommended to Dennis that he en-
pIoy Senator Burton to help him, and
he brought about the meeting between
Burton and Dennis which resulted IN
Burton's employment.
Among the Witnesses VIII dAS AOW
in St. Louis to testify before the grand
jury are r. NJ. Fulton. a postoftice in
| spector. who formerly live in Topeka,
but who is now Inspector in charge at
! st. Louis, III worked up much of the
first case against Burton; w. J. Wick
cry, formerly inspector in charge at
! Cincinnati, but now chief inspector al
washington: w. q. Cochran, formerly
CHIEF inspector. but now purchasing
agent for the postohee department;
| Joe P. Johnston, inspector at Kansa
City, and others.

HARVEST HAND INFORMATION.
NTr. Gerow Sends Out Blanks to the
County Clerks.

T. B. Gerow, state employment
agent, is preparing to send out his
first blanks to county clerks for his
preliminary investigation as to the
number of harvest hands that viii be
needed in the wheat belt this year.
This preliminary report is generally
made to the employment department
about May l.. By that time the county
clerks can tell whether or not there is
any surplus labor in their respective
counties, or whether the demand for
the supply. If there seems to be q
surplus of labor it is an indication
that the demand for outside help in
the harvest fields will not be as great as
it would otherwise be, but if the de-
mand for men in other lines is so
great as to use up all the available
men it means that there will have to
be a big supply brought in from the
outside to save the wheat-with a
good wheat crop in sight.
So about the last of April MI &c
row steps fOrward into the limelight
and he occupies a place near the cen
ter of the stage in Kansas until the
harvest is over. Heretofore D. W.
Elaine OF Pratt has edged on to the
stage about the same time with an
estimate of how much Gerow doesnt
know about the harvest hand demand.
but this year Mr.. Blaine may be too
busy digging his North Pole and Gulf
canal to engineer a harvest hand
shortage.
The indications are hat there will
be as many men needed this year as
there were two years ago Already a
shortage is reported in some sections
of central Kansas. Fred Marley Of

REFINERY O ERIE.
Machinery for a 500 Barrel Plant Is
Ordered.

State Auditor Wells, Who came up
Tuesday from his home at Erie, says
the people who are behind the PROPOSE
ton to build a refinery at Erie are al
ready at work on it and the machinery
has been ordered. This is the company
that Ex-Governor E. A. Burke of North
Dakota is behind.
The refinery will be started with a ca
pacity Of 500 barrels a day, and it viii
be built so that if it IS successful it
can be increased to 5000 barrels a day.
If it prove a success it viii axe all
the oil in the immediate Erie field.
That. the refinery means
business is indicated by the fact that it
got in a hurry and purchased the site
for the refinery itself. The oil producers
of the Erie expected to donate site,
but they were slow about agreeing on it
and the refinery company stepped In
and made the purchase. The site COW
ers fifty acres and lies along two rail-
IA tracks. Besides his there is an
abundance Of gas on it for fuel pur-
poses.

PIPE LINE FOR TOPEKA.
Directors Meet at Lawrence and Dis
cuss Situation.

Lawrence, Kan, April 12.-J. C. Nc
Dowell, general manager Of the Kan
sas Natural Gas company, Wilson
Shaw, president of the bank at Pitts
burg, Mr.. Sculley of Chanute and Mr..
NJ. NJ. Sweetman, chief engineer for
the company, are in town viewing the
city with Mr.. Johnston of the gas com
pany to make plans for the bringing in
of the pipe line from the oil fields.
The men decided after a thorough
investigation of the town and the
country surrounding it that it viii be
best to bring the pipe line into Law
renee from the south near the east
end of town. The branch going from
Lawrence to L-eavenworth Will cross
the river near the old railroad bridge
site and the branch reaching to Topeka
will follow the Wakarusa valley from
the joining place near the Dutton
bridge.
The chief engineer stated that it
would be comparatively easy to make
these connections and branches. and
that there would be no great engineer
ing problems to deal with in laying
the pipe line into Lawrence. h
work is being showed forward from the
south. and the men will undoubtedly
be within the Baldwin district in a few
weeks.
would not state definitely how soon he
would be in sight of Lawrence with
the gang, but he aid that
with no delay in sight there was no
reason to believe that the pipes would
not be in. connection by the middle OF
the summer.

St Petersburg, April 12.-The radical
position taken by the Pan Russian con-
gress Of attorneys which has been meet
ing here in its denunciation of the bu-
reacracy and it's demand for a constitu-
ton and the similar stand taken at a
meeting of college professors have ere
ated a great sensation. All the efforts
of the government to prevent the meet
ings being held by prohibiting the dele
gates from assembling in public were
~unaVailing. The newspapers were then
forbidden to mention the meeting and
for ~disobedience in referring to the at
tOrneys meeting this mornings issue OF
the Son of the Fatherland was confsca-
ted. The Russ also boldly dehed the
authorities by printing b resolutions
adopted by the professors. The action
of these influential bodies served to m
phasize the growing cutlery against the
bOuligan commission which is proceed
ing with its work without any repre-
sentatiVes of the people, thus furnishing
the liberals with justification for the
charge that the execution of the re-
forms outlined in the imperial rescript
is completely in the hands of the bu-
reaucracy against which all classes OF
society are fighting.
The bishop of Nizhni Novgorod has
written a letter advising the boycott Of
