POLITICAL GOSSIP.
tContinued from Page One,

lar with the situation the fight now lies
between Bailey and Stubs. In that
contest Stubs has no show Thousands
of Republicans would like to see Bailey
serve another term as governor His
sturdy independence and his Splend1d
campaigning qualities have held for
him the friends he had before and he
is stronger today that ever. He has
been his own master-and even men
who disagreed with him in some mat
for it. If Bailey is nominated he will
be elected by a big majority. Just
watch the Bailey boom"
The State Journal is in receipt of the
following letter from Capt W. H.
Mitchell, chairman of the congressional
committee of the Sixth congressional!
district:
"Beloit, Kan, Jan. 9. 1908.
Editor State Journal, Topeka, Kan
Dear Sir:-Will you kindly state that

tee meeting which was set for January

calling of a special session of the leg
islature by Governor Hoch, has been
postponed until Tuesday, January 70,
at 10 o'clock a. m.
Very truly yours,

1t is expected that Congressman
Reeder Will De present dI ILLS IiCCt-
ing. and will advocate the direct prt-
mary plan for the Sixth district con-
gressional nomination, even though the
specfaI session does not hatch out
primary law.
The meeting Of the congressional
committee in the Fourth congressiona!
district, which was set for January IA
has also been postponed till January 20.
A dispatch from Washington says that

Erie, Kan, Jan. 10. s. Campern
of this place has announced his canoi-
dacy for the state senate. Mr.. cam
bern's friends have talked of him as
candidate for this office for some time.
Senator Robinson of Wilson county at
present represents the district, but 1t Is
understood that he will not be a cand1-
date because of the custom of alternat-
ing the office between the two counties,
Neosho and Wilson. Senator Robinson
was elected at a special election last
spring to fill the unexpired term OF the
late Senator Benedict. Mr.. Cambern
will have no opposition for the nom
nation for other parts of the county
excepting from Chanute where there
may be several candidates. ]. j. Hurt
of Chanute is spoken Of as probable
candidate of the Chanute people.

MRS. LANEAR is IMPROVING.
Woman Shot in Head May Not Die
After ALL

It was reported this afternoon that
Mrs. Sallie Lanear, the colored woman
who was shot in the head by her son
last night while attempting to settle
quarrel between her son, John Starnes.
and his wife. was conscious. DR.. o. A.
Taylor, the attending physician, did
not think the woman would live over
two hours. The bullet entered her
temple and no effort was made to
probe. This may prove another "Harve
Wheeler case. Harve Wheeler,a negro
jointist, was shot in the temple, at
close range. The physicians, observ-
ing that the bullet had entered square
ly, refused to probe, for fear of hasten
ing his death Wheeler is still alive.
An ex-ray examination, made one year
after he was shot, showed that isthick
skull had "spattered" the bullet In ev-
cry direction. like a drop of quicksilver.

PLANS FOR YUMA INDIANS.

Francis L. Sellew, project engineer says in regards to the plans for the Yuma Indians, and the conditions pre- vailing over in that part of Imperial county lying along the Colorado riv- CT:
 "The allotment of five acres to each man. woman and child among the In dians is fixed by acts of Congress It gives each Yuma family an average of 90 acres. Not family among them now has an acre in cultivation.
 No Indian need suffer because there is no more overflow, since there is day labor on the reservation for every able bodied Indian who wants it from now until the water shall be turned onto the land. They can make more money between now and then at wages than by overflow crops, were they available.
 The Indians will not be handicap ped for want of roads or bridges over the levees As soon as it can be de- termined where these crossings should be and how many are needed, the Reclamation Service will establish them"
