STRIDES AMAZE POLITICIANS

New York, Nov. a feature of the
election which interested politicians yes
terday almost as much as the local re-
suits was the success of many Socialist
candidates for mayor, and the large vote
the party polled in many sections They
were more than surprised when they
learned that ten Ohio cities, two OF
them of note. elected Socialists as may
ors, while eight lesser cities followed
suit.
The election of Socialist mayor in
Schenectady, N. Y, and an assemblyman
from the same party, was considered a
matter of considerable importance, as
indicating the drift of politics, Even in
Bridgeport, Conn., the Socialists received
1000 votes, while the successful Re-
publican candidate got only l,50O more,
Socialists were elected mayors in Can
ton and Lima, Ohio, and in Lorain, st.
Marys, Barberton, Cuyahoga Falls, Mt.
Vernon, Toronto, Fostoria and Martins
Ferry.
DAYTON and Conneaut each elected
three Socialist councilmen. Conneaut
missed electing Socialist mayor by
five votes.
At Canton, Harry Schilling, Socialist,
is believed to have beaten Arthur Turn
bull Democrat, by only three votes.
Corbin Shook, Socialist, was an easy
winner at Lima.
Socialist leaders in Cleveland say that
the increased party vote is due to organ
iged campaigning. They declare the
growth is normal.

STATE ENDED CASE.
And Defense of Harley Burt Started in
Rutland County Court.

Rutland, Nov. 9.-The prosecution
rested its case and some important evil
dence was put in for the respondent in
Rutland county court yesterday in the
trial Of the manslaughter case in which
Harley Burt of Pawlet is the respondent,
the trial having been resumed yester-
day morning after recess since last
Saturday because of the death Of the
fiancee of Juror John Learned of Tin
mouth One of the principal points that
was brought out in the evidence was the
denial that the heavy club exhibited to
the jury by the state is the stick with
which Burt struck Frank Smith Of Paw
let during the alteration October 81, the
man dying the following day. The fact
developed that through childhood Burt
was puny and that even now his health
is greatly impaired. 1t was also shown
that Smith bore an ill-feeling toward
Burt.

Secretary Coburn Finds Average SoWv
BY Growers in Kansas to Be a.

Topeka, Kan.-How much wheat
should be sown per acre? That ques
ton is always discussed more or less
In Kansas. 1t has come up again es
pecially in Western Kansas, where the
hot weather of the present year hit
.he crop pretty hard.
F. d. Coburn, secretary of the Kan
sas' state board of agriculture, has
made a detailed study of results in
wheat growing, and to arrive at the
information he made consensus OF
the detailed statements of 100 Of the
most representative Kansas winter
wheat growers, selected from severa,
hundred, farming in fifty-six different
counties and the average quantity OF
seed sown per acre indicated is "A

the sower, from a minimum of three
to a maximum of six pecks. Not all of
the wheat land is plowed every year,
it being a comon mtehod, especially
in the western half of the state, to
drill directly among the stubble of the
recently harvested grain. 1t is claim
ed that this gives firmer seed!bed,
with much less danger of the surface
soil being L!own about by high winds
and leaving the roots naked to the
weather.
The low average wheat yield per
acre for the state is disgraceful, Mr..
Coburn thinks. 1t is one of his ambi-
lions to be helpful in fastening the
day when the Kansas farmer, by right
methods, shall realize from his labor
and land a much larger return than
he now receives. He says the expert
ment station and agricultural college
are of late doing wonderfully efficient
work in this direction, and that men
and women on the farm who do not
keep in touch with and take advan.
tage of this and benefit by it are max

KANSAS TO Be ASKED
TO BUY REUNION PARK
WANT COMMONWEALTH TO HAVE
,BATTLE GROUND,
Park Contains 1860 Acres And Would
Make An Ideal Place For state
Militia Encampments.

Topeka, Kan.-The next legislature
will be asked to buy Reunion park at
Baxter Springs and make it state
park. Southeastern Kansas is urgine
the state to take over the beautiful
grounds, comprising about 100 acres,
and make of it an institution similar
to the John Brown park at Osawato'
mic, Pawnee Rock and Pawnee VIII
lage.
At the recent reunion at Baxter
Springs, Senator c. S. Huffman OF Co
lumbus stated that at the next session
of the legislature he will push the mat
ter. Many Southeastern Kansans e1'
pressed themselves strongly in favor
of the move
The mark is near one of the famous
battle grounds of border war fame'
and has a distinct place in Kansas plo'
neer history. The ground is now own
ed by the Reunion Association, made
I'D of the old soldiers Of Southeastern
Kansas, Southwestern Missouri, North
western Arkansas and Northeastern
Oklahoma. GAS the years go by the
ranks of the veterans are timing and
the veterans are anxious that when
they have all gone the grounds remain
a perpetual state park, and not become
private property. They have owned
the grounds about thirty years. Much
improvement has been done to the
grounds.
1t is pointed out that the park
would be of great value to the state
militia. At the present time the en-,
campments of the guardsmen are held
at Fort Riley They were held at vari-
GUS places over the state In years gone
by and if the state returns to that plan
at any time il is citSd that better
encampment place would be hard to
find than Reunion park There is am
pie room for drill and maneuver and
the twenty odd buildings would be OF
value as military store houses. Reun'
ion park now is provided with water
works system and has comprehen'
sive scheme of artificial lighting.
