Co, CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEETING.
County Convention Called for HOlSlng.
ton September 5th.

Pursuant to call the Democratic
county central committee met in
the court room on Saturday after
noon, with a fair representation.
Owing to the absence from the
city of Isom Wright. the chair
man, L. G. Breeder was elected
chairman pro TEN. As there
we're several democrats present
from townships without any re-
presentation, those who were
present were given permission to
cast the vote of the irrespective
townships.
Various gentlemen addressed the
committee on the good of the
order, ''and after due consideration
it was decided to hold the county
nominating convention at Hois-
ington, on Wednesday, Sept. 9th.
The basis of representation was
placed on the vote given G.. K.
Aldrich for county Superintend-
en- in 1904.
Those present expressed them
selves we'll satisfied with the out
look for success in their respective
localities, and seemed sanguine of
success at the coming election, if
the right kind of a ticket was
nominated and the proper sort of a
campaign was made. That the
doings of the Democratic party
in this county are of the utmost
concern to the opposition was
shown by the fact, that although
a party committee meeting is
generally supposed to be a private
affair, three republican officials
were present during the meeting.
Evidently they are on the anxious
seat.

in the various positi ons he has
since occupied, have particularly
fitted him for the position of
Judge, and he has many friends
who would be more than pleased
could be be prevailed upon to
make the race.
Our district court, and for that
matter all other judicial tribunals,
should be absolutely non-partisan.
and the best men should be put
forth for those positions. Mr..
Clayton will I'll the bill. and we
hope he will become a candidate.

The attention of our readers is
called to the reply of Senator
Harris written to the Star, of the
Topeka Capitals attempt to
queer the Senator's railroad rec
ord. We ask our readers to
caefully peruse the article, that
they may know both sides of the
story. Other attacks have been
made on our candidate, and each
in turn will receive our attention,
that he may be set right before
the voters of the state. Every
possible argument will be pro-
duced by the opposition, and fire.
qeuently, if no generally, it will
not be confined to the truth, or if
it, will be so distorted that no
one would recognize it.

CULTlVATlNG CORN CROP.
The Methods Should Vary with the
Weather and the Character Of
the Season.

In the cultivation of corn find that
the plan has to be varied to suit the
season. II the season is wet | believe
1t Is better to cultivate quite deep, but
II the weather is dry give a shall
low cultivation and keep the ground
level. do not wait until the corn is
up before beginning to cultivate, but
have the cultivation well under way
even before planting, and harrow well
Immediately after planting before the
corn Is up. Then let 1t alone until
the plants are up far enough to stand
another cultivation. After the corn Is
up cultivate from three to five times,
according to necessity. I find to ia
c1iitate the work Of cultivation that
the rows should be made from 40 to
AZ inches apart. II the land is poor
or worn out It is we'll to have them
even further apart. l use only a one
row cultivator, and I do the work Of
culivating thoroughly. The weeds
that Interfere most with the cultiva-
ton In wet weather are crab grass
and fox tail. The other common
weeds are easily handled. II a long
rainy spell sets In Just as we are about
to begin cultivation we simply wait
patiently until the ground is in shape
to be cultivated. It Is my experience
that, speaking generally, corn does
not receive as many civilizations be-
fore planting as II should. That Is,
Inc ground should be worked into a
condition of fneness that will encour-
age the spread Of the corn roots. Most
farmers cultivate the corn enough
after 1t Is up, but do not use enough
care In cultivation. am confident,
continues the writer In the Farmers
Review, that better cultivation will
greatly Increase the corn crop. think
that more cultivating would help us
very much to conserve the moisture
that Nature has given us and thus
save 1t for the use Of the corn during
the dry spell that comes every sum-
mef.

HOch'S Campaign Opener.

In carefully prepared argument
Gov. Hoch has opened his campaign
by a letter which appeared in Sun,
days daily papers, in which he at
tempts to justify everything that has
or has not been done during his ad-
ministratiOI. He dwells at length
upon the work of the last Legislature,
seemingly taking all the credit for the
reforms accomplished, upon himself.
He does not tell the people that
these reforms were the result of the
indignation of the Republicans of the
state at the high handed manner in
which the states affairs had been
conducted, and that he, having been
led to the block in the state printer
fight, was taken up and made the
standard bearer of the boss busters,
thus making him a creature of the re-
formers, instead Of the chiefreformer.
Probably no two men in the legis-
lature had more to do with shaping
the policies Of that body, and of the
laws that were passed, than Ansel R.
Clark and W. R. Stubs. They were
the real head and front of the boss
buster movement, and were the real
leaders of the house in the last legis-
lature. Where are they now? Are
they in the fight the same as they
were two years ago? No, not much.
The latter is at this time very busying
sending a bunch of questions broad
cast over he state for the sole pur.
pose of making the republican state
platform more definite and certain. ="
Deprived of his leadership in the last
state convention by the very gang
that he had ouSted from the power
two years ago, he now has tn e
pleasure of seeing the man he made
yes made, governor of Kansas. See
ing his companion in the fight of the
last campaign defeated for lieutenan t
governor by a machine ridden, boss
infected, railroad subservient conven.
ton, and the man that he made gov
ernor claiming all the credit for what
was accomplished. The position the
governor takes is one of the most
self praising kind that we have heard
OF in years, and expects the people
to stand pat, something he has
never done himself, and vote the rail-
road ticket back into power. Will
they do il?

For District JUDGE,

There has been more or less
talk among some of the voters in
this locality, of bringing James
Clayton out as an dependent can
didate for district Judge. The
t ak seems not to be confined to
this city alone. as mention of the
same sort of talk was made in last
weeks Hoisington dispatch. Mr..
Clayton is a republican, and
would doubtless hesitate to accept
the responsibility of becoming
an independent candidate, al
though there is plenty of pre-
cedent for his doing so.
As a matter Of fact it appears
that the people of Rice county
have a life time cinch on this
Office. Judge Nimocks was ap-
pointed when the district was
created, and in the following
campaign, although nominated by
q republican convention as a re-
publican, he was defeated by q
republican, Ansel R. Clark of
Rice county, running as an indie
pendent. Judge Nimocks received
"a tremendous majority in this
county, but the good Republicans
OF Rice county soaked him good
and hard. Two years later, Bal
ley, running as an indecendept.
defeated Rose of Stafford, the
regular Republican NOMINEES.
-Four years later Clark was elected
again, served two terms, and was
followed by the present incumbent
also a Rice county man.
As man We have no crow to
pick with Judge Brinkerhof. but
he comes far from being the
Judicial timber that this district
has, or that it needs on the bench.

that Mr.. Clayton's training, not
only as a practicing attorney, but
