The case is one Of the most cele-

Rock Island Officials

President Nudge, and a number
of the other officials o. the Rock
Island we're here on a special train
Sunday on a tour of inspection.
The train arrived here during the
forenoon, and left about one
o'clock in the afternoon. The par
ty did not go outside of the rail-
road yards here, on account of the
bad weather. The only informa-
tion given out during this trip is
to the effect that all of the road
from Liberal to Hutchinson will
be ballasted during the coming
year.

TO GO TO DODGE CITY
Big Convention n There Satur.
day.

The coming convention at
Dodge City for the purpose of
nominating a candidate for Con-
gresS from this district, next Sat
urday, promises to be the most i'm
portant political meeting in the
Seventh District this year. While
there will be more than 200 dele
gates here from over the district,
there will also be a number of
other prominent politicians in at
tendance. Champ Clark of Mis-
souri,, who is very probable can
didate for President just now, will
be at the meeting and address the
democrats there, and will sound
the keynote of the campaign.
The eyes of the nation are focused
on Kansas, and the early action OF
the Democrats of this state will be
looked forward to with eagerness
by the whole Union.
1t is rumored that the delega.
tion from Seward county will
have a boom to launch at the
Dodge city convention, which will
probably affect the future of one
of the most prominent men ir
Southwest Kansas.

Instructed For Neeley

The county convention held at
the City Hall last Saturday was
one of the most interesting ever
held here. A few hours before
the convention was held it was
rumored that there would be two
tickets in the field for the delega-
ton to Dodge City this week.
There was much uneasiness among
the good brothers for time, and
the premonition of trouble did not
disappear until the close of the
convention. j. e. George, ID. A..
Henry, E. S. Irwin, A. A. Far
mer and 9. G. Eddy we're elected
as delegates to the convention, and
o. M. Woods, George Qulnlan,
0. T. Woods, DIR. Il. 7. Nichols
and q. V. Manatt we're elected as
alternates. Owing to the bad
weather but few of the out of
toS3n democrats were present.
There was a desire on the part OF
those present TO scatter the dele
CATION over the county, but it was
impossible to find men who could
leave their work at this time.
There was good sentiment at
the meeting here Saturday for
George Neeley, and the delegates
to the convention at Dodge City
we're instructed for George Neeley
for Congress. That sounds good
to us, and we believe that he de-
serves the nomination, and like
wise, has good chance to win.

running around the country and
talking about it. On the whole,
there seems now to be every indi-
cation that the road will build in
to Liberal next year. With the
extension of the Santa Fe through
the counties north and west of us,
abandoned it would seem that the
addition of another line of railroad
to Liberal would put the town
ahead another notch.
The following appears in the
Guthrie dispatches: Through the
Santa Fe circles it is learned that
with the construction of the Col
mer cutoff southwest of Dodge
City, Kansas, to Colmer, N. M,
there will be built another con-
nection to Santa Fe's Panhandle
line across northwest Oklahoma.
This branch will be built north
west from Woodward, Oklahoma,
through Beaver, Oklahoma, which
is now forty miles from q railroad,
will cross the Rock Islands El
Paso line at Liberal, Kansas, and
Stevens county, tapping the big
broomcorn county in that locality
This branch would give a railroad
to a country that now has but the
El Paso line of the Rock Island
which from Liberal runs southwest
to Guymon. Oklahoma. The build
ing of this branch, hinges only Oh
whether or not the Colmer cutoff
is built. One third of the right
of way for the Colmer cutoff ha!
been secured. Topeka Journal.

MORE VOTES

AS special inducement to the
people of this community to stim-
ulate the voting in our piano con-
test, we have decided to run the
voting for subscriptions on the
following schedule:
One new subscription 1900 votes
One renewal 1000 "
New subs. for 9 yrs $500 a"
Renewals for Q yrs $500 4"
New subs. for 4 yrs 1900 ="
Renewal for 4 yrs $500 -"
There are a number of commun-
tiles where the contestants have
fewer friends, but whose friends
are more loyal than in the more
thiCkly settled communities. In
order to give these a fair chance
to win one of many valuable prizes
we have decided to make the above
schedule. The Democrat is the
biggest weekly paper published in
this section of the country, and
the broomcorn news is alone worth
many times the price of subscrip-
tion.

had such an awful time trying to
collect the $4,000 before he woke
up that he went right to the news
