REVIEWS HER BATTLE.
Mrs. Hutchms Again Seeks
$2,500 Monthly Allowance.
THIRD or REALTY INCOME
Application of Millionaire's Widow
Once Before Denied by JUS
tioe Wright.

Mrs Rose Keeling Hutchins. widow of
SHlson Hutchins, who left an estate of
81. 100000, and whose will is being con-
tested, today renewed. her application to
the court to be allowed $500 per month
out Of the rents and income from the
real estate left by her husband. The
amount asked is one-third the income,
which is said to be 81 500 monthly. Mrs.
Hutchins also asks an accounting by
William J. Dante. trustee of the estate.
and monthly statements from him in the
future.
Justice Gould issued "A rule on the
trustee and The other parties In interest
to show cause next Wednesday why the
requests should not be granted
Petition Once Denied.
A similar petition for monthly al
lowanoe was submitted by Mrs. Hutchins
last May, bu. Justice Wright denied the
applica ton. The court at that time point
ed out that Mrs. Hutchins must first de-
eide whether to take the provision of 10
per cent Of the estate allowed ner by the
will Of her husband or to renounce the
provisions of the will and stand on her
dover right.
William J. Dante was recently appoint
ed collector of the personal estate of the
tu.hcd in the position OF trustee under a
deed in trust executed by StilSon Hutch
ins in 1910. under which he holds title to
the real estate. This latter inaction ap-
pears to be the basis of the renewal OF
the allowance petition by Mrs. Hutchins.
Provision for Wife.
Under the deed in trust Stilson Hutch
ins had provided that his wife have a
monthly allowance OF $1,000, TIL, sum
was increased by Chief Justice Clabaugh
to $1,000 when the wife complained the
former sum was inadequate for her
household expenses.
The death Of stilson Hutcl1ins april
II last put an end to this court order
and since that time the widow has been
without allowance from the estate, except
for some life insurance payable to her.
In her petition. Mrs. Hutchins re-
iterates to the court that nos matter
whether the will Is sustained or not,
her share in the income from the real
estate exceeds $500 monthly and sne
claims she should be allowed this
amount by the court. Attorneys Git
tings and Chamberlin appear for the
widow.

E. D. Wheeler for representative

E. D. Wheeler VINO is asking for
the democratic nomination for rep
resentative for Trego county, was
born and raised on farm near Au-
burn, New York. Finished his
schooling in the high school of that
city. came to Osborn county, Kans.,
in 1873 His home has been upon a
farm nearly all his life, and during
the first few years in Kansas his time
was divided between hunting, farm
ing and stock-raising. A few years
later he moved to Ellis county, and
in 1885, to Trego county after an ex-
tended trip through western states
investigating irrigation methods, as
we'll as improved methods of agricul-
ture. In 1898 he was appointed COM
missioner of Forestry, by Governor
Lewelling, and four years later ap-
pointed Commissioner of Forestry and
Irrigation by Governor Leedy. His
successful administration of the office
is common knowledge over good
portion of the state, and the vigorous
protests made against change in
management made by the Forestry
Department at Washington, and in
our own state could only be silenced
by the confession that the place had
been promised beforehand, and must
be delivered. He returned to his farm
near Wax eeney where he has resid-
ed until four years ago, and still has
which is located across road from his
present residence. Two years ago at a
large farmers meeting held at The
Western Kansas Experience Station,
near Hays, Mr. Wheeler was elected
President of a farmers state organiZa-
tiOn for. the promotion of better
methods in agriculture, and to aid in
increasing the value and usefulness
of the experimental work of the stat
ion. He was reelected last year.
Soon after the Regents of the Agri-
cultural College first took charge of
the Hays station they invited Mr..
Wheeler to meet with them and give
his views as to the policy TO be pursu-
ed in its management. He advised in
view of the fact that the state had
several institutions that must be
supported by the taxpayers, that the
new station should be made self sup
porting as soon as possible, and that
large acreage of the bottom land
should be seeded to alfalfa in order to
secure an increase that could be
depended upon to support the expert
mental. work. and that no appropria-
tion should be asked for except for
necessary improvements and equip
ment; Though that policy was adopt
ed it has not been fully carried out,
though approaching it closer at the
present time than ever before, and
the prospects are bright for its early
realization; Some years the wheat
crop alone has more than paid out,
years like last year the alfalfa is more
dependable, and large acreage has
been seeded this year We feel safe
in saying if Mr.. Wheeler is nominat-
ed and elected his ability, experience
and acquaintance will add greatly to
his efficiency as a legislator. He is
not IN favor of unnecessary ap-
propriations, and if elected will be
glad to consult with the people re-
garding amendments to present law
and the enactment of new ones.

TO REPUBLICAN VOTERS

Much as / would like to do so, l
find it impossible to meet personally
all those voters whose support re-
spectfully solicit. / am therefore,
adopting this plan of presenting my
claims for the Republican nominat
ion as candidate for superintendent
of Trego county schools:
| wish to say first that L learned by
pioneer experience right here in
Trego county how hard it was for
the children of poor hOmeSteaderS to
get a competent education under all
the adverse circumstances surround
ing the early settlers who came here
in 1879 My first school days, and my
first teaching days were spent in a
sod school house. Later on, l taught
in several of the country schools of
the county, especially in COllYer
township, and also in Wal -keeney
schools, and have also had experience
in both common and High Schools in
other counties. In the last eight
wears nv friends have frequently ask
ed me to become a candidate Tor
superintendent of our county schools
and l as often declined because L
wished to complete more fully my
preparation before undertaking the
duties of such an important trust L
now hold diploma, life certihcate
from the State Normal School at
Emporia, and have a wider and more
varied experience as a teacher, all or
which is worthy of consideration In
the selection of a superintendent OF
public schools If my claims meet
with your approval / shall appreci-
ate your support, and if nominated
and elected | shall give undivided
and impartial care and attention to
all schools in all parts of the county.
