Indications are that the next house

the progressive or square deal crowd.
and that the senate will be about
equally divided.

practically certain to oppose the
lodge" and at best count there can
be found only about IL senators who
will line up for the railroad crowd on
all occasions. This gives to the lodge"
the benefit of the doubt on several new

the lodge" list Senator Chapman of the
Carton Stafford district. who broke

make any positive alignments.

The following is Mr.. Bristow's "card
of thanks which he printed in his
paper, the Salina Journal:
Mr.. Bristow feels deeply grateful
to the Republicans of Kansas for the
nomination they have given him for
the office Of United States senator. He
has made the campaign in behalf of
measures he believes are right, and it
is highly gratifying to realize that the
majority of the Republicans of Kansas
are in favor of the views he has advo-
Gated.
while the contest has been ami
mated and vigorous, it is hoped that
no personal ill will has been engender-
ed. Certainly Mr.. Bristow has no
feelings of resentment toward anyone.
He is thoroughly devoted to the poll
cies commonly designated the Roose-
veit policies. and believes that it is
the highest importance of the people
of this country that those policies
shall be enacted into law He stands
in the most confidential relations to
Secretary Taft, and thoroughly be-
lieves in the secretary's devotions to
the high ideals of progressive Repub-
licanism.
while these policies are designated
as the Roosevelt policies because
of vigorous and aggressive adj
vocacy of the by the presi-
dent. yet the president and
all public men who are today standing
for these ideas are simply responding
to the demands of a well defined pub
in this nation of ours public opinion is
the sovereign, and the public officer or
representative Is, as it were, the am
bassador of the people to carry out
the will and wish of that sovereign
"Grant said that all of the people
know more than any one man. and
Lincoln has been styled the greatest
statesman of his time because he could
more clearly read the purposes and
desires of the American people than
any other man of his day. These men
recognized the sovereign of the peo-
pies will.
1.-The only purpose that Mr.. Bristow
will have in his service in the senate
will be to render the greatest service
| possible to the people of Kansas. He
| believes in the neople and has great
| confidence in their sense of justice and
| in their desire to decide all questions
| in harmony with the principles of
right"
Fred Washbon, at Anthony, Har-
| per county, announced to the State
Journal this morning over the long
distance telephone that Harper coun-
| ty went for Bristow for United
States senator by about % majority
| This was one of the districts which
has been in doubt, and it increases
Mr.. Bristow's total sure vote in the
| legislature to SO.
| Complete unofficial returns have
| been received from all the precincts
| in Kiowa county. The vote was very
| light. The Republicans probably
| cast about 80 per cent of their party
vote and the Democrats not so many.
AS nearly as can be estimated the
vote is: Stubs. EOS: Leland. 65:

WHEAT UP TO 81. CENTS.
New Crop the Highest of the Season
on the Salina Market.

Salina, Kan, Aug. THE wheat
market in Sa1ina has advanced, cents
per bushel over prices the first of the
week. The best No. 2 wheat is worth
50 cents on the local market. The
cause of the advance is reports Of
conditions in the wheat growing coun-
try in the northwest and the demand
in Liverpool, where it advanced con-
siderably. The Salina corn market is
strong at the usual prices but there is
little to come in.
The local hay market is down this
week. Good prairie hay sold on the
Salina market for Sc per ton. Alfalfa
is a trif1e higher but alfalfa growers
are bringing but little to market. SO
