There il an unusually good brand Of
harmony prevailing in Republican
ranks in Kansas this year. Two years
ago half Of the politicians were mad at
the other half and secretly hoping that
some Of the candidates for office could
be defeated. w. J. Bailey, ex-governor
was not in the campaign; he felt that
he could not support part Of the
ticket. This year he has slsnihed his
willingness to speak whenever called
upon By the state committee and he
will make as good speech as any Re
publican on the stump Another hard
fighter and former enemy Of Baileys
who win talrs tie stump and support
tho ticket Il Congressman Curtis. o.
the First district. Curtis and Bailey
have not been friendly for years and
this apparent dropping Of the old quar-.
rel viii be pleasing to the Republicans
all over the state. Both men have
strong followings in the state and the
fact that the leaders are working to-
gether will make the followers more
friendly and harmonious in their deal
ings.

Gently declared that within thirty days
he would have "every old soldier in the
state organizing Harris clubs" Mr..
Ryan evidently knows little about the
old soldiers Of Kansas. He believed
that because the old soldiers were dis
satisfied with the action Of the SUI
preme court In electing a reporter that
they would also oppose Governor Hoch.
P. H. Coney, commander Of the state
department Of the @. A. R. said:
"Mr. Ryan Is talking through his
halter. He does not know the old sol
diers Of Kansas. They have no inten-
ton Of lighting the ticket. Because we
opposed the supreme court because It
did not elect one Of our friends to Of
ice It does not mean that we are pre-
pared TO slaughter the ticket for the
benefit Of a man who tried for four
years 70 wipe out our union. We may
admire the nerve Of a man who com
manded regiment against us for four
years and then comes into the old
Soldier state Of the union and pre-.
sumes to ask for our votes, but we
cannot go so far as to support him."

through whose lands the road runs
There were no public lands within
twenty miles Of the line Of this
road An the Indian Territory, and CON
sequentiy no land to which said grant
can attach. Most Of the lands have
been allotted and patented to the In

made, some Of the tribes still had q
large surplus Of unallotted lands.
Should the government purchase
these surplus lands from the Indians

GOLD AT GRASS ROOTS.

Gold is found at the grass roots in
many places of the YeLtnG district. par
ticularly on some Of the new creeks OF
the Upper Kahiltana and Lake creek.
which have been prOspected since the
beginning OF the year. At least 800 men
are now In the district. and all are busy
prospecting and making ready for sum
mer work Many Of them have sluice
boxes IN place to begin washing gravel
as soon as the creeks clear OF ice.
This is the report brought, down by
John A. Mcdonald. who, with D. II.
ConlIlin. arrived in Seward last night.
They left the headwaters of the Yentna
April p and came straight through, with
tho exception OF a stay OF two days at
the lower end of Lake creek as they
came past. Water was running over the
ice on the Yentna, and they were obliged
10 wade part Of the way. It was slushy
travelling all the way from Lake creek
TO Rnik. and the Little Susitna was
showing signs Of a breakup.
Mr.. Mcdonald has been in the Yentna
district since last fall, with the eXCep-
tiCn OF few weeks In the winter, when
he came outside. He left here in Feb
rUary the last time, and since then has
been on most OF the explored creeks
OF the district While no mining has
been done since last summer, expert
mental panntng has shown good indica-
tiCns everywhere, and Mr.. Mcdonald
saws the miners are all extremely san
guine of results A majority Of them
are experienced In placer mining, and
many Of them are Alaska sORrdOughs,
who know wha they are trying to do.
on a majority Of the creeks there is
timber enough for all purposes. 1t IS
usually small. On some of the higher
creeks, particularly the upper Kahitna,
there IS no timber. and the lpen located
there have had a hard job sleGSing tim
