PENNINGTON Aug. Sat 1:3c
today, the Sixth Assembly of the
Pennington Chautauqua will be open
ed by the Music Makers. DR.. Richard
C. Hughes, president of Ripon Col
lege, who is to be the platform man
ager will formally open the session
at 200 o'clock and deliver his intro
ductory address.
Gov. ]. Frank Hanley of Indiana
will supply the place of Senator Gore,
as the principal speaker of the day.
Senator Gore, who recently startled
the senate with charges of attempted
bribery by Oklahoma land sharks,
cancelled all of his dates this week,
on account of being summoned by a
senate committee which was appoint
ed to investigate the bribery case.
The loss Of Senator Gore for Farm
ington is keenly felt and is a disap-
pointment to the chautauqua manage
ment. Cores substitute, Ex-Governor
Hanley Is one of the great chautau-
qua speakers. Hanley has national
reputation both in the political arena
and on the chautauqua platform. He
belongs in a class with Gore, Cum
minis and La Toilette, is speaker,
rivaled by few and surpassed by
none. Hanley is one of the great fig
ures in national political circles-al-
ways pIeases his audiences and new
er disappoints
The carload of tents arrived Satur-
day and today Anderson Park is a
city of tents. The big 190-foot tent
was raised yesterday and everything
is in readiness for the assembly. Jo-
seph Carver, the Lee County farmer,
who is president of the chautauqua,
is giving everything his personal at
tention. Mr.. Carver is one Of those
young fellows who insists on putting
his shoulder to the wheel whenever
he Identifies himself with any under
taking. Mr.. Carver is the kind of a
man who makes good-are not afraid
of work and are always hustlers. If
anything lags he is always on hand
to start things off with an enthusiasts
tic shove which spells success.
The farmers for twenty miles
around have their work we'll in hand
and are in better shape to enjoy the
full chautauqua term than ever be-
fore.

Kansas City Stock Yards, October
Is, 1910.
Cattle receipts today are 10000
head, following a supply of $4,000 yes
terday, including 1900 calves for the
two days. Prices held up, about
steady yesterday, in spite of the ad-
verse effect of excessive supplies at
Chicago, and break there, and the
market is steady on most everything
today, western steers mostly a shade
lower. Warm weather enables sales
men to get big fills this week, which
makes net results equivalent to a
strong market if the weather was
against the acquiring of a thirst.
The range country is turning cattle
loose right and left, especially the
Eastern slope of the Rocky noun
tains, in Colorado and New Mexico.
Owners farther west are also ship
ping heavily, some big consignments
here yesterday from Utah, and con-
siderable complaint is coming from
the range men about car short
age on some of the roads. Kansas
and the quarantine territory are
falling down in cattle supply
this week, and are likely to decrease
right along for awhile, till feed cattle
move freely. A feature yesterday was
the arrival of some corn fed cattle in
the quarantine division, at S7OO to
S7.3O, first since last summer. Other
corn fed steers are here today from
same territory. The cause of the big
run at Chicago yesterday was burst
of liquidation from the corn belt in
Illinois and Iowa, and not an extra
heavy run of rangers, which indi-
Gates d disposition on the part of
! feeders to market their cattle before
they are we'll finished. Some steers
brought 81. Is here today, grass>steers
$3.50 to 5000, thin grassers and Old
Mexicos down to S3. Is, COWS $500 to
S4. so, heifers S3. Is to 1925, bulls $500
to s4.25, calves S4.OO to $500, stockers
s3.4O to s5.15, feeders S4.O0 to $500.
Hog prices took big bulge today,
prices up 10 to 30 cents, heavy hogs
SS. 80 to 1915, medium weights SS.90
to $3.50, lights 1910 to S9.35. Un-
evenness in the market caused the
wide range, but the close was at the
best point, and late sales at the top
in the various classes. Run is 5000
here today, little better than here
tofore, but still pitfu1ly small. Pack
ers have put out the bait of stiff
premium on light hogs to draw them
in lately, with some success, and
there was quite narrowing up be-
tween lights and heayies yesterday.
! Sheep and lambs are steady today,
following a break of Is to 25 cents on
lambs yesterday. Run is 1900 here
today, ZOO yesterday, from which
it will be seen that there are still
plenty of stock coming available for
the country. Packers took only 40
per cent of the receipts last week,
balance going to country buyers.
Best lambs bring S6.65, feeding lambs,
1915 to $500, fat yearling S4 Is to

Collyer township is noted for having
the best roads in Trego county, and
it was all due to Uncle Jimmie'S tire

Death Of James Powers

On Monday, October II, 1910, James
Powers died at his home near Collyer
after brief illness.
The deceased was born in Nova
Scotia, Canada, March Is, 1881, where
he remained until 1850, he then set
tied in Waukegan, ILL.,, where he was
united in marriage to Miss Sarah
Kane, October Is, 1856; he resided in
Illinois until March Ia, 1879, when he
moved to Fort Hays where he re-
manned only short time having pre-
viously taken up claim near Collyer
to which place he moved and resided
until the time of his death.
He is survived by wife and seven
children, several grand and great
grand children. Mr.. Powers can in
deed be called one of the pioneer set
tiers of Trego county, and during his
long life among the people of this
part of the county we have never
heard aught but words of praise and
kindness for him. He was ever ready
to lend his influence to any public en-
terpriSe that would be benefit to
the people, and his true hospitality
and happy sunny nature won for
him scores of friends. A more loyal
friend, kinder neighbor, a more
loving husband and father never lived
than Mr.. Powers and his death is
keenly felt among all who were ac-
quainted with him.
On Thursday the funeral was held
at Collyer and was attended by a
large gathering of neighbors and
friends. The World extends sympa-
thy to the bereaved family.
To the Young Nan Casting His First Vote
Your attention is directed to the
fact that the Republican party is in
power. Some years ago the party en-
tered on progressive politics and has
made long strides along these lines.
Our party stands today for more
education and civilization, rather
than the accumulation of great
wealth. We are seeking to elevate
the standard of manhood making
better citizens making more equal
the opportunities of all citizens.
All the measures passed by Con-
gress in the last fifteen years have
been calculated to make the best use
of the faculties and bring out the
ability of every citizen. Therefore
the voter should have but one absorb
with the party that has kept pace
and grown with the times and where
may be found the high tide of pro-
greSSiveneSS-
