Wa -Keeney last Wednesday even
ing at which Frank M. Kelly, of
Ellis, Kan. and Mamie P. Doyle,
ofKansaS City, Mo. were the prin-
cipal actors. Thinking to sur
prise their Ellis friends and evade
their onslaughts they came up
on No. and ran right into about
as jolly bunch as they are like
ly to meet in this low vale of tears.
Although these events were not
on the advertised program for
carnival week there had been two
weddings already that day at the
office of Probate Judge Peacock
and the balmy night air seemed
to be full of cunnubial contagion.
While the anxious couple were
hunting the proper officer the tip
passed around to the carnival
crowd and when the Office door
was opened, in walked the self
invited guests to witness the GER
emoney and wish Mr.. and Mrs.
Kelly the longest. happiest life
possible on earth: Misses Stella
and Julia Blair, Margaret Swig-

A Statement of Facts.

The opposition to Reeder are
depending on securing votes
against him by circulating false
statements. For instance, they
have industriously circulated a
statement that Speaker Cannon
controls Reeder'S vote. This is
wholly false. Reeder organized
the house and defeated the Joint
Statehood proposition which Mr.
Cannon tried hard to line him up
on, and this is the only PROPOSE
ton upon which the speaker ever
requested his vote. Reeder' S
opponents are working over
time asserting that he is not fav-
orable to Roosevelt policies as
you will see one instance of be

Mankato, kans., July %, 1908.
To whom it may concern.
While visiting in Washington,
D. c.. a few months ago, I had
the honor of meeting with our
congressman, w. A. Reeder.
Mr.. Reeder took some pains to
show me around the city and
make me acquainted with points
of interest that any traveller
might naturally want to see. He
asked me if 1 would like to visit
the White House and meet Mr..
Roosevelt. This of course, was
a privilege and an honor that nc
man would overlook or refuse il
given a chance of meeting the
president of the United States.
When we arrived at the White
House we were shown into the
cabinet room along with others
who had called to see the presi-
dent. As soon as the president

that his professional services

They know that he rides on pass

Knowing this, they have sent him
to the legislature time and again
because they also know that Dr.
Jones can not be bought, sold or
traded at any price by any per

that he has worked and will work

instead of working for political

attempts to deceive voters, and
they also know that he has not

out in the boat, he saw string running
through a crack in the stern He began
to draw in the string and there was
