WANTS POOR FARM
FOR FISH HATCHERY.

State Fish Commissioner S. H.
Campbell, who is here this week, has
served notice on the commissioners of
the poor farm, upon a portion of which
the fish hatchery is now located, to va
cate the entire premises forthwith, says
the Lander Clipper. The commission
ers, who are E. A. Earle and James
Carr, say they will do no such thing,
and that the fishery people will have
to go to the courts if they want posses
sion. S. C. Parks, jr., Of Cody is the
third member of the board. The state
Legislature, by the law of 1903, gave
permission for a fish hatchery to be 10
Gated on the state poor farm and the
commissioner selected a site of twenty
acres. The commissioners of the poor
farm allege that they took all of the
ground they needed and more than
they have ever used for any beneficial
purpose, while Messrs. Campbell and
Logue say they want additional room
to build ponds. The whole matter may
be passed up to Governor Brooks, un
less the fish commissioner takes the
matter into the courts.

BOSE WANTS IT.
Candidate for Mayor Notwithstanding
He Is Declared Ineligible.

Kansas City, Kan, April "a special
election for mayor will be held in Kan
sas City, Kan, May to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of W. ".
Rose E. z. Venard, acting mayor of
that city. issued the call for the special
election Saturday afternoon. This will
give the Democratic and Republican
committees time to consider the selec-
ton of candidates and provide plenty
of time for registration.
The Democratic leaders are undecid-
ed about what course to pursue. w. W
Rose insists on being candidate for re-
election in the face of the judgment of
the supreme court OuSting him from Of
fee and making him ineligible to hold
the office of mayor until after the term
for which he was elected expires in
April 1907. Even if Rose is nominated
by the Democrats it is considered
doubtful whether he can get his name
on the ticket to be voted on at the city
election.
Each party nominating a candidate
must file the name of the candidate
with the city clerk ten days before the
city election
If Roses name is filed with the city
clerk ten days before the city election
and the clerk decides he is ineligible. in
accordance with the decision of the SUI
preme court, then the Democrats may
be without a candidate and the Repub-
Hcan candidate would be without OPP
position. This is the perplexing ques-
ton the Democrats have to solve. Many
of them are looking for strong candi-
date to contest for the Democratic NOM
nation with Rose and the names of B.
E. Rively and James Sullivan have been
mentioned.
Il am a candidate for the Democratic
mayoralty nomination and if nominated
I shall make the race" said Mr.. Rose
yesterday.
Rose has a large following and if he
persists in his effort to obtain the NOM
nation there is trouble in store for the
Democrats. The Democratic city CEN
trail committee will meet early this week
to discuss the situation and nominate
candidate. The central committee at
meeting held last week instructed the
executive committee to nominate Rose
when the proclamation Tor a special
election was issued. This was before
the ruling of the supreme court making
Rose ineligible until April, 1907, was
known

Mr.. Rust's reasons for resigning are
best explained in his own words in his
letter of resignation, an excerpt OF
which is as follows:
In September, 1887, I was employ
ed by this company as a locomotive
engineer and since which time with
out one exception when I did not ex-
ercise a sufficient caution and thereby
broke two drawbars5 the company has
not been put to one penny Of expense
by any act or oversight of mine and 1
feel justly proud as 1 think of my
record as an emploXe. Now, however,
on account of increased physical dis
abilities I feel 1t q duty to the company
and myself to sever my connections
with the company and request you to
accept my resignation to take effect at
once
A reply to this resignation has not
been received by Mr.. Rust as yet but 1t
was learned at the offices OF the COM
pany that it would be accepted and
that in all probability a good place in
the service of the company would be
offered to Mr.. Rust. 1t is likely that
Mr.. Rust will accept such place as
he said today that he had not reached
the point yet where he cared to quit
work and would like nothing better
than to go to work with the Santa Fe
again in some other capacity than
that of engineer
There are few locomotive engineers
in the country who have handled the
throttle for forty years and in such a
Rust. He is on in the sixties and when
asked where his birthplace was re-
pMed .sin log cabin in hard cider
times
He began railroading as a fireman
in 1857 on the old Cleveland & Toledo
line which is now a part of the Lake
Shore system. He was working as
fireman when the civil war broke out
and Immediately enlisted in the Eighth
Ohio infantry. He served till near the
close of the war, being mustered out
when his time expired in 1864. Dur
ing the war he participated in sixty
five battle and skirmishes and Was
wounded twice At the close of the
war he went back to work as a. loco
motive fireman and in January, 1856,
he was promoted TO the position of en-
gineer on the old NJ s. &. N I. line,
now part of the Lake Shore. A
year later he went with a line which is
now a part of the Louisville & Nash
Vile and two years later accepted a
position as engineer with the Michi-
gan Central. He remained in the ser
vice of this road until 1878 and then
went with the old Lafayette, Muncte
& Bloomington Line. Leaving this
company he worked for a short time
on the Chicago & Alton and in 1881
went with the Texas Central and later
with the Texas & Pacific. AN en-
gineer had his troubles on that road
in those days." said Mr.. Rust. There
was so much alkali in the water down
there that you could not keep a cork
in a jug let alone trying to keep water
in a boiler"
After his experience in Texas Mr.
Rust returned to Bloomington, Ill,
where his folks were living and ran
for while on the Dubuque & Dakota
line, now a part of the Chicago Great
Western. In addition to running an
engine on this line he was also master
mechanic of the road. In 1884 Mr.
Rust took a position with the Illinois
Central and remained there until 1887
