CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT.

The uncertainty regarding presi-
Dental candidates is beginning to dis
appear and is giving place to some
thing that is more tangable AID de-
finite. The candidacy of Secretary
Taft has been endorsed by two
thirds vote of the State Central Com.
mittee of Ohio, which means that he
will have the delegation from that
state without struggle. Fairbanks
| will have the enthusiastic following of
Indiana. Uncle Joe Cannon will be
endorsed by Illinois and get strong
] delegation to push his claims before
the convention. Senator Knox of
Pennsylvania will have, the influential
backing of his own state. That is a
Of whom would makela fine president.
But there is objection raised to all of
them. Cannon is too Old Fairbanks
is too conservative; Taft is too much
of an echo; and Knox is too closely
associated with the corporations
Whatever truth or lack Of truth there
may De in these objections, it is true
that no one of these gentlemen could
command the hearty and enthusiastic
support of republicans in all the
states. This being the case the party
will either turn to Roosevelt and com
pei him to stand for another term on
take up dark horse. AS stated be.
fore in these columns we believe that
Gov. Hughes Of New York is the com
ing man. He has shown such vigor
OF intellect, such accuracy in judg-
ment, and such independence in excu.
ton that he now stands out as.one OF
the most prominent and leading polit-
zeal figures in the nation. What a
combination he and Gov Hoch OF
Kansas would make for the ticket in
1903.

SUICIDE AT ROSS
THEODORE MARTENS ENDS HIS LIFE
BY Taking Dose of Strychnine Saturs
Morning Had Once Been
Inmate of Asylum at
Clarinda.


The little community up at the viii
lage of Ross We're greatly shocked
Saturday morning to learn that one of
their neighbors had tired OF life and
cut it short by his own hand, But the
fact that he was at one time for about
a year an inmate of the asylum at
Clarinda and for many years been
afflicted more or less with melancholy
is mitigating circumstance that
affords an explanation for the com
mission of the deed. The immediate
cause is thought to have been some
litigation connected with the purchase
of corn shelter, which he was COM
ing To Audubon TO see about that day
hoping to make settlement.
On Saturday morning Mr. Martens
harnessed his team for the purpose of
driving down To Audubon and after
breakfast went to the barn to hitch up.
A shorttime later has wife whowas ontin
the yard heard call of distress
and going into the barn found him in
the throes of death, but able to say
strychnine when she had inquired what
had happened. Mrs. Martens at once
telephoned for physician and then
gave the alarm but the men who hast
ened to the barn found the deadly
poison had completed its work and
the last spark of life had taken its
| flight.
Sheriff Northup and Coroner Harmon
went up and took charge of the body
and held an inquest, j. A, Cozine, M.
l.. Carper and F. M. Luse acting as
Jurors who rendered verdict that
his death had been caused by his own
hand by using strychnine. 1t seems
from the evidence that he took the
tin cup from the pump, went up into
the hay NOW, took the poison, put the
empty bottle in his pocket, set the cup
| on a beam, climbed down to the barn
floor and lay down with his hands
| folded over his breast-all OF which
indicates well-planned and dellber-
ate intention to perform the deed.
Mr.. Martens had been farmer until
few years ago when he sold out and
moved to Ross where he owned q
good home and sufficient other prop
| erty to leave him in fairly comfort
able circumstances. He was tifty-toul
years of age and leaves wife and
several children. The funeral ser
vices we're held on Monday, Rev. j
p. Guenther Of Lincoln conducting TIN
services.

Large Merger of Railroad Lines
Said to Be Slated.
II WILL BE HUGE. AFFAIR.
Proposed Consolidation Include. Texas

Several Other Roads.

cles, is authority for the statement.

srn, Alabama and vicksburg and
shreveport and Pacific railways, con-
shutting what is Familiarity known as
the Queen and Crescent route. is soon
to be consolidated in reality under one
head, with headquarters at Cincin-
natl. The merging of the five roads,
1t is said, will be the result of the
purchase of the New Orleans and
northeastern railroad, operating from
Meridian to New Orleans, the Ala
bama and Vicksburg railroad, operat-
ing from Meridian to Vicksburg, and
the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pa
ciflc railroad, operating from Vicks-
burg to Shreveport, from the English
syndicate which controls and oper-
ates them under one management.
The proposed consolidation is the
general topic of conversation among
railroad officials from Cincinnati to
New Orleans In the latter place it is
generally conceded the deal for the
transfer of the road south of Meridian
has been made, and the Queen and
Crescent route has at last succeeded
accomplishing the end toward which
the officials of the road have been
working ever since the Cincinnati

hands of the receiver.
