Democrats Are Not Trying to Capture

What is said to be 4 Democratic plot
to capture the POpulist convention was
revealed to the Republican state COM
fnittes yesterday i'm a letter which came
to Chairman s. C. drummer from j. w
Buck the Democratic county treasurer
of RawIins county. Mr.. Buck appears
to have addressed the letter by mis-
take to Mr. drummer. 1t seems to nave
been intended for w. H Ryan, chair
man of the Democratic committee. me
letter is as follows:
Dear Sir.-We Democrats out here
I'm northwest corner are intending to
send full delegations to the Populist
state convention. July T. What we want
IS to fail in and control and nominate
the Democrat ticket from start to fin
ish.
I'VE think it can be done if careful
selection is made in delegates. to either
get fusion Populists or Democrats. No
doubt with your extended acqu8 intance
you could get full delegations in coun-
ties that would otherwise not be rep
resented at all. Would be glad to hear
from you any time. at your convenience.
Also to have advice and suggestions
through the fall campaign.

committee. is not i'm the city today. but
w. H. Kempers- the treasurer, said this
morning.
There is no effort being made by the
Democrats to capture the Populist con
Vention. 1t is my understanding that
the POpuists have practically decided
10 allow their convention to go by with
out nominating any ticket. Ny guess
IS that the Populists win decide to en-
dorse the Democratic ticket I never
heard Of this man Buck who, it is claim
ed, wrote this letter, and either he is a
fictitious character, or else he is some
chap who is writing about something
entirely wild. The Democrats are max

NO PARDON FOR HIM.
Governor Hoch Won't Help Out Frank
Campbell.

It is not likely that Frank Campbell,
the member of the Kansas City board
of education who was convicted of
boodling, will be given a pardon by
Governor HI0ehe m spite of the fact
that Campbeu's application had the
backing Of many of the Kansas City,
Kan. politicians.
Campbell gave himself up to the
sheriff of WyandOtte county yesterday
and was locked up IN the county Jail
He will be taken to the penitendary
the latter part of the week, where he
must serve a term of from one to
seven years.
Governor Hoch received a protest
against Campbell's pardon from the
Civic league of Kansas City. The
friends of the convicted official, how
ever. hoped to have him pardoned be-
fore he had a chance TO enter upon his
penitentiary sentence. Failing in that
they Will probably try to get him
paroled as soon as he is eligible for
parole. which will be in one year.
Campbell was on the school board
during the flood of 1903, when Ar
mourda2e was completely covered with
water. As he lived in that district.
other members of the board consented
to let him make the contracts for
cleaning the mud and silt out of the
school buildings Campbell gave the
work to c. e. Gilhaus at an agreed
price of $35 a day.
The bill amounted to sg88.75, but
later it was shown that the regular
charge of Gilhaus for such work was
S7.45 day. After Gilhaus received
his check he gave Campbell a check
for Sap at once. This led to an in
vestigation and Campbell's conviction
on the theory that he had made an
agreement to get that much for Civ
ing Gilhaus the job. Campbell said
he had sold patent valve to Gilhaus
and that the $412 check had nothing
ia do with the flood matter
In 1904 Campbell was indicted by
the grand jury, but Judge McCabe
Moore of the district court quashed
the Indictment Attorney General c.
c. Coleman carried the matter to the
supreme court and got a reversal of
Judge Moore's action. Then Camp
bell was convicted in Judge Moore's
court in June. 1905. His term ex-
pired as member of the school board
last year. He appealed to the supreme
court, which body upheld tAe decision
of the district court and Campbell will
have to serve from one to seven years
in the penitentiary. He has been at
liberty under a $1,000 bond, and was
employed as a steamfitter at the Nell
son Morris packing plant.

POPULISTS WILL COME.
Have Not Abandoned the State Con-
yeIition as Reported.


Judge E. S. Waterbury of Emporia
writes to the State Journal TO say that
it is not the plan Of the Populist party
to abandon its state convention, which
was called to meet IN Topeka July 4.
The Populists have surrendered the
use of the Auditorium in the evening
to a nonpartisan political meeting, but
they will hold forth during the day
time, and Judge Waterbury says
1T will be a large and important
meeting, many say unusually so, and
for anything known a full state ticket
will be nominated, a least no one has a.
right, or has assumed up to this time
to say otherwise; only the meeting on
the evening Of that day will not be one
of the sessions of the Populist state
convention. So much is understood.
But the meeting to be held in the
Auditorium next Fourth of July night
will be a noppartisan affair. not to
supersede or destroy any political par
ty, I trust least of all the Peoples
party, best hope of the nation. It Will
be participated III By members of all
parties. 1t Is for permanent nom
partisan organization. paramount to
and expected to influence the actions Of
all parties, the form of a political
movement already going on in many
states, and expected to become general
in the future of the nation"

WANTAN EXTRA SESSION
Independent Oil Men Of Ohio Ask the
Governor TO Act.

Cleveland, O.. June 13.@The Leader
today says: An extra session Of the
Ohio Legislature is asked by the inde-
pendent oil men of the state. A for
NAL request for the issuance OF q spe-
cial call is being prepared for Gov
ernor Pattison, while letters bearing
upon the subject are to be sent out
from Cleveland TO every member OF
the legislature.
Should the special session be called
the Independent oil men will urge the
amendment of two laws which they
deem necessary to insure them fair
play as against the Standard Oil com
pany. The first is the anti-discrimi-
nation law now in operation in Kansas
and Iowa. The second Is the maxi
mum freight law, which has enabled
the independent operators in Kansas
to obtain equal rates from the rail-
roads. thus placing them on the same

men have pledged one dollar each. A
man who cannot spare a large sum
says that he is very much interested
and wants to give. Mr.. F. D. COburn
has notified the board that he will be
one of twenty men to give fifty dollars
each to make up the thousand dollars
needed Judging from Mr.. Coburn's
former generosity to the home the
board feels sure that when the other
nine hundred and fifty are in their
hands his fifty will soon follow.
Whether it comes ia like or larger
amounts from those equally or more
able to give, or in one dollar or FIVE
dollar donations from those equally
generous and less abundantly supplied
with that which they can spare, the
board confidently expects the good
people OF Topeka to be proud of and
uphold this worthy and necessary
work.
The president, Mrs Richard Wilson,
the treasurer, Mr.. L. P. Bonebrake, or
any Of the board that you may know
will be glad to give you a receipt for
any amount that you feel able to give.
We hope soon to invite you to a

interesting material on the subject. The
officials of the union profess to have
established, among other things, close
relationship between the large family
and the short work day.
Since September 1, when the eight
hour schedule first was put into effect
in the printing shops in Chicago, there
has been a remarkable increase in the
birth rate among the compositors' fam

corded during the period is twenty-four,
which represents a Is per cent better
showing than appeared for the preced-
ing ten months.
Another effect which the printers
credit to the shortening of the hours
of labor is a lowering in the death rate
among. the members. From tables kept
by the union in former years the aver
age mortality in the organization has
been forty out of a total of about 5000

cine in Kansas.

Kansas City, Kan, June 13-The KAN
sas medical board of examination and
registration, in session in the high school
building yesterday refused by unan-
imous vote to restore the state license
Of DR.. William Meffert of Emporia,
which was revoked by the state board
in 1902
DR.. Meffert was stripped of his right
to practice medicine because Of charges
of immortality. The district court of
Lyon county, the. Kansas supreme court
and the United States supreme court
upheld the board.
A few months after the last decision
had been rendered DR.. Meffert made ap-
plication to have his state certificate re-
stored, but persons in Emporia, who
were familiar with the case, objected.
Yesterday a committee Of citizens OF
Emporia, headed by William Allen
White appeared before the board and
entered a protest against restoring DR..
Mefert's license The secretary of the
