OLD FASHIONED
COOKING CLUB
NEW FAIRFIELD ORGANIZATION
BIDS FAIR TO RIVAL OLD
SETTLERS ASSOCIATION

Fairfield, July 25.-(SpeciaD-
organization which bids fair to be-
come formable rival to the Jefferson
County Old Settlers association In
Fairfield has just been perfected III
this city in the past two days and will
be known as the "Old Fashioned Cook
ing and Picnic club" 1t had it's origin
from a few remarks jokingly made by
an old settler in the city park the first
Of the week when he declared that The
day of good old fashioned cooking and
old fashioned sports was over and
would never come back.
There are those in Fairfield who do
not believe the statement made by
this man and so several of the older
residents set about at once to prove
that old fashioned things would De
just as much enjoyed now as they
ever were. Several men got together
and elected the following officers and
perfected an organizations:
President, Col I. T. Wisecarver;
secretary, Ralph w. Lamson; execu-
tive committee, Harry Green, Charles
G. Taylor and Zell Brown.
I The officers set about at once to
pan SOIuCLHluS WulCIl Woulu PAoNS
their part of the contention that peo-
pie never tire of old fashioned enter
tainments and certainly not of old
fashioned cooking. The executive
committee hit upon the picnic idea
and fixed Thursday. July % as the
date for the first picnic. The place
has not yet been determined but will
probably be at the Old Settlers park
just north of the city.
A cordial invitation is extended to
every one to bring basket Of good
old fashioned cooking and spend the
day. AS member of the committee
has said, I'VE want something brought
that will grow new stomachs and not
poison U.S. We don't want any foreign
ingredients but the plain old fashioned
cooking which our mothers used to
do. There will be music and speeches
and a general good time.
Hon. S. j. Chester is chief marshall
of the day with B. F. Black as his as
sistant. Hon. J. S. McKemey and
Attorney E. R. Smith will be masters
OF ceremonies.

HANLEY PUTS IN CLAIM.
Washington Democrat Says He Was
Nominated for Judge In
Sixth District.

Oskaloosa, July 25.-P. J. Hanley OF
Washington claims he was nominated
for Judge at the democratic judicial
convention here. On the first formal
ballot he was one Of the three who
had the highest number of votes. and
in consequence he claims that he was
legally the nominee. The vote was:
Myers Of Jasper, 81; Reynolds OF Ma
haska, 81; Hanley Of Washington, As
and Gamble of Keokuk, IS. There were
three judges to nominate and the three
receiving the highest votes were to be
the nominees. After the vote had been
announced, however, Mr.. Hanley
stated that the chairman of the Ma.
haska county delegation arose and
changed ten votes from Mr.. Hanley to
Mr.. Gamble. It was on that action that
Messrs. S. V. Reynolds of Mahaska; o.
p. Myers of Jasper and w. G. Gamble
of Keokuk were declared the nominees
OF the convention. Mr.. Hanley believes
he was legally nominated and will take
the matter into court, probably.
