He Is we'll known throughout the
First congress. onal district, having
Addressed audiences in nearly every
county in the district. He is par
ticularly we'll informed as to the
needs OF the special tax interests or
this section, having been connected
for many years with the internal
revenue service. Mr.. Campbell 8
an experienced campaigner, and as
he has gone into the fight in earn
est, his candidacy will undoubtedly
command very strong support"
J. w. Burchinal. publisher of the
Saturday Review, an independent
Wheeling publication, says In his
editorial columns:
''There Is quite an interesting po-
loitIcal buzzing in the locality.
The Saturday Review has heard it
for some time, but t seems to be
growing more distinct. 1t is tho
suggestion of ex-State Senator Alex.
R. Campbell for the Republican
nomination for Congress next year.
We can say one thing very truth
fully that the suggestion does not
eInanate from the pollt clans. Mr.
Campbell Is a clean. strong man
and his Republicanism is OF the old
school kind that never wavers. He
has been mixed UP in no factional
troubles and would make a strong
cand date. It is barely possible
that the Republ' can slogan next may
be the Campbells are coming!'"
Senator Campbell visited Man
nington and Fairmont before ar
irving in Clarsburg and was we'll
received in both cities. His recep-
ton here was gratifying.

The Club met with Mrs. O. M.
Woods, Tuesday afternoon, and
an exceptionally good time was
enjoyed as most Numbers were
present. A paper, early Days
in Seward County" was read by
Mrs. Edmonds, in which she gave
an incident that took place near
her ranch home, that was pathetic
as we'll as very interesting. A let
ter from Miss Kate Wright, who
attended the Federation of Clubs
at Lyons, last week, was read, in
which she gave a report of that
meeting, 1t stated that Mrs. Myra
Stevenson of Pratt had been elect
ed as delegate to the bi-annual
meeting.
Mrs. George, Mrs. Hess and
Mrs. Reid were the social commit
tee at this meeting and their eff
forts we're a success. Refresh
ments were served by the commit
tee and the hostess.

Democratic Convention

1t is desired by the county GEN.
trial committee that everyone who
can do so attend the convention Sat-
urday for the purpose of choosing
delegates for the district conven-
ton at Dodge City. While there
is only one Office to fill, it is never
theless important that the entire
Democratic vote of the county be
shown at that election. If there is
a sentiment here for Morrison,
which we do not believe there is,
this will be the best opportunity
for showing it. He has written
to friends here concerning his can
didacy, yet the race George Neel-
ey made last year has changed the
sentiment since the primary of
1910, so that we believe the entire
delegation from Seward county
will be for Medley.

A Bad Mess

Several weeks ago, warrant
was sworn out for a number of
fellows who were working a game
here, the principal part of which
was selling county rights for the
sale of a tanning process. The
complaining witness in the case
was q. l.. Grigsby. One or more
of the men was caught by Sheriff
Edison and brought back for trial.
County Attorney Commons was
not in town at the time, and the
papers in the case we're drawn by
Attorney F. S. Macy. On the
date set for the preliminary hear
ing, the state failed to appear and
the case was postponed. The bond
for the prisoner did not provide
for continuance, and on the Sec
ond date set for the hearing, the
defendant failed to appear. The
result was that the case was dis
missed, and costs were assessed
to the county. The total is not
known Mt this time, but may be
made known later.
The case of the State of Kan
sas VS.. Harry Frost, who was
charged with assault with intent
to kill, was set the first of this
week. The sheriff in this case had
recovered the prisoner defendant
from another state. and when the
time came an examination was
held. which showed that the ctm
planning witness as we'll as the vic
tom of the affair, who was struck
in the head with a hammer, did
not wish to appear as witnesses in
the case, and said that the defen-
dent struck the fellow, M. r.
Couch, in self defense. The county
attorney did not believe this suf-

We believe in advertising
but we have our own ideas
as to what is the the best
method. Good newspapers
with a bonifide circulation
can hardly be dispensed with
in calling the attention of
the public to the wares you
carry. But to our mind the
best and most permanent adj
vertisement any merchant
can have is a satisfied custo-
mer. One who after he has
worn an article out, feels
that he has had full value
for his money in style, COM
fort, service and price. Such
a customer becomes a living,
walking advertisement for
the merchant from whom he
purchased the goods and to
this we depend, more than
anything else, to advertise
our goods to others. We
buy all our goods direct from
the manufacturer, no brok-
ers, jobbers or other middle
mems profits to pay, and de-
livering them to you at the
very small profit. All our
shoes are ran t g Q d
