Insurgents Haven't Given Up
Hope in First. :.
Exerting Every Effort to Garry
AtchisOn County.
ADMIT TWO ARE DOUBTFUL
Not Sure They Can Win in the
Third.
Should Taft Men Win AtchiSOn
First Is Settled.

The fight for the first of the Kansas
delegates to the Republican national
convention ought to be decided next
week when Atchison county holds her
county convention. The First congress
Siohal district is one OF the two dis
trictS of the state that the insurgents
consider a doubtful district The other
is the Third The Taft people do not
admit this but the Roosevelt people Will
do their best to control these two dis
tricts. The First district will have 11S
delegates at the Atchison convention
next week. OF these 81 have been elect
ed and 81 are for Taft. But the two
big counties of Leavenworth and Shaw
nee elected these 81 and they were con-
coded to be Taft counties. Jefferson
county elected ten Roosevelt delegates.
If Atchison county at her convention
April should elect Taft delegates the
fight would be over. Taft would have
IS delegates, six more than a majority
in the convention.
Taft lacks only nine delegates now Ct
a majority. Three of the eight counties
have elected delegates. Roosevelt must
carry the other five counties solid to
win 1t is conceded that he ought 10
carry jackson, Brown, Doniphan and
Nemaha counties by close margins, but
in Atchison he will have a hard fight
If the Roosevelt men win in Atchison
next Tuesday they will have a good
But the Taft men are confident that
they will win in Atchison and in one or
maybe two of the other counties, giving
them a clear majority of more than 20
delegates in the convention.
The following is the representation
IN the First district by counties:
Shawnee, 81; Leavenworth, 20; Atch-
1son, IA; Jefferson, 10; Brown, IL;
Donfphan, 10; Jackson, 10; Nemaha,
IL. Total, lis.
Greensburg, Kan, April Am at
tempt to organize a Roosevelt club
here resulted in a practical failure. A
petition had been circulated and the
signatures of many Republicans and
others, were secured. When a meet
ing was called Tuesday night for the
purpose of organization, many of the
signers refused to participate, claim
ing that their signatures had been OBJ
tanned without a fair knowledge of
the purpose of the meeting. Only six
teen people attended, and not all of
them are Republicans.
Some Republicans here argue that
1t is not good politics to promote a
movement ostensibly for Roosevelt,
but in reality gotten up in another
mans interest, especially when Roose-
welt is practically out of the race.
There is strong sentiment here in
support of the Taft administration.

Rucf Will Testify Against Scllmitz.

San Francisco, Feb. 7.-Abe Ruef,
former political boss Of this city, now
convict in San Quentin peniten-
tiary, will testify for the prosecution
in the trial Of Former Mayor Eugene
Schmitz, according to ar announce
ment made here to-day.
Ruef will be brought here immedl-
ately and lodged in the county jail
pending the completion of the jury
and other trial preliminaries.
The announcement that Ruef will
testify was a distinct shock to for
mer Mayor Schmitz and his attor-
neys. Schmitz is charged with brib-
ing another city official
Will Ruef tell all to gain his free
dom?' Is question that Is not only
on the lips Of some Of Schmitz's clos
est friends. but practically on the
lips Of every citizen Of San Francisco.
If the former boss should unbosom
himself 4 scandal more far-reaching
than San Francisco's most diligent
reformers ever dreamed of would be
uncovered, one man in authority de-
clares.

Wcevil Treatment in Corn.

NccElt treatment III Corn.
The best time to handle the weevil
| is in the fall, when the corn is stored,
but If you failed to do so then, 1t Is
advisable to treat 1t now, since the
weevil becomes active at the begin
ming Of warm days, and will become
even more active later In the spring.
Carbon bisulphide, or "Fuma," Is
the substance to be used 1t can be
obtained from local druggists at
| about 25 cents a pound, or in larger
quantities from wholesale dealers at
| about Is cents per pound, delivered.
lhis substance is a volatile liquid,
eVapo@ting rapidly when exposed,
and giving off a foul-smelling gas,
almost three times as heavy as air.
Extreme care must be exercised in
its use that neither matchc3 nor fire
IN any form are brought near the
crib during fumigation, as the gas Is
easily inflammable, and an explosion
would be likely to occur.
This substance should be apDlied
~
cubic feet Of space, or, approximate
ly 100 bushels Of corn. Spread sacks
| over the surface Of the corn and pour
the carbon bisulphide over these.
Care should be taken to have plenty
OF room between the corn pile and
the top Of the crib, to allow free
movement Of the man who does the
fumigating Beginning at the back
OF the crib, pour the liquid as uni
formly as possible over the surface
OF the corn. The gas given off be-
Ing heavier than air sinks immedi-
ately down through the corn, and,
penetrating to the weevils, kills
them by suffocation. Carbon bisul-
phide Is not dangerous to apply when
care is exercised to breathe as little
OF 1T as Is possible and to apply It,
as quickly as is practicable. In the
average crib, confine the gas as long
as possible; in practically every
case 1T will have entirely escaped
within 4S hours. Fumigation with
this strength OF the liquid, so far as
Is Known, in no way Injuries either
the terminating or feeding qualities
OF the corn so treated.

B. Mckinley, Of Illinois, chairman
Of the Republican Congressional

Mr.. Taft's friends have advised
such step, but no action was taken
until the pressure Of political work
