During his residence in Topeka he
has paid many thousands of dollars in
taxes and has built more than one
hundred houses, a record that few
citizens of Shawnee county can rival.
He has been a progressive and public
spirited citizen, active in his younger
years in promoting local interests and
the growth of Topeka. He has always
been a liberal contributor to the
schools, churches and colleges, which
have made Topeka an ideal place of
residence. as we'll as the business and
Industrial enterprises of the town. Col
Onel Veale is one of the young men of
a half century ago, who came to Kan
sas to save the young territory and
state to freedom. He enlisted early in
the war with other young men of Kan
sas and made a good record as a SOL
der. This is the first time he has
been q candidate for a county office in
Shawnee county and his friends say
he has surely earned an office and If
there is any such thing as earning an
office by being faithful to a party or
to the interests of the public he ought
to be elected.

Roberts made a statement in open
court that Charles keleher had nothing
whatever to do with the murder Of
Charles Wetzel; that he was not pres
ent at the killing and that he knew
nothing about the plan before the muir
der was committed. Roberts returned
to his original story, that Clarence
Ross was there and that he got a part
of the money. It will be remembered
that Ross was supposed to have been
