deadly in IT'S effect on partici-
pants and innocent by-standers.
In a street duel stray bullet
sometimes strikes passer-by, but
in this case several hundred thou
sand officeholders-not to speak
of an army of aspirants-have
had their hopes riddled and their
bread and butter filled with frag-
ments of exploded shells.
In specializing as to the out
come of the convention one must
have considerable latitude. At
the present, it looks like two con-
ventions, if Mr.. Taft's supporters
have the courage to do all that is
in their power.
The refusal of the committee
to honor Mr.. Roosevelt's request
for $50 tickets indicates they have
the animus to fight, but have they
the courage to carry the fight to
the last ditch? They had the law
on their side, the law of prece-
dent-when they gave $50 tickets
to the president and refused the
er-president, but the law is never
invoked between friends. Men
are at outs when they go to law.
Mr.. Taft has control of the ma
tional committee. The commit
tee can seat enough of the Taft
delegates to give him a majority
of the convention-and there will
be about as much to be said in
favor of the Taft delegates from
the south as can be said for Mr..
Pooeevetf's deieoo+ec fran that

them correctly can foreteH the re-
suit at Chicago. First: viii
President Taft dare to use the
machinery which he controls? If
he does-and the machine doesn't
break-he can take his southern
delegations and with a minority
of the delegates from the north,
nominate himself.
Does he want that kind of a
nomination? And will he risk
what Mr.. Roosevelt may then do?
Of the ex-president would an
nounce in advance that he would
abide by the decision of the con-
vention, he would not have much
chance to secure a nomination; he
might as we'll go to Africa.)
The second question is: What
will Mr.. Roosevelt do if his con-
testing delegates are denied
seats? Will he take a majority
of the delegates. from the north,
repair to another hall, seat his
contesting delegates from the
south and then proceed to nomin-
ate himself?
That would seem to be his pur-
pose, if indications and threats
amount to anything. If the COM
batants are left to themselves it is
safe to guess that Mrs. Roosevelt
will be a candidate-either the
nominee of the regular conven-
ton or the nominee of a boiling
convention.
But there is third course. The
Republican national committee is
composed of men who, whatever
their attachments to particular

State of Kansas, will be held at
the schoolhouse of the District
Friday, April II, A. D. 1912 at
2 o'clock p. m.
Notice is hereby given that a
proposition will be submitted at
the annual school meeting to in
crease the amount of money that

es for the ensuing year for said
school district from. three and
one half mills on the dollar to
severn mills on the dollar, or
such less number of mills as will
produce the sum of money voted.
EXPLANATIoN-(1) If it is very
probable that not more than
three and one half mills be re-
CURED, the above proposition
need not be voted on. CD If
more than three and one half
mills may be required, this prop
osition must be voted on, and it
requires three-fourths of the
votes cast. (3) IF more thar;
seven mills may be required, ink
sert the required number in the
above notice instead of "seven."
(4) AS the number of mills
voted above Is not the number to
be levied by the county commits
sioners, it should be made high
enough to permit them to levy
the amount of money voted.

1912.

Ten Things to do This Month.

1. Find out what your years
work has pro6ted you; take an In
ventory and find out what you ore
worth, and if your farming has paid.
2. Get ready for next years
work; lay out the crops; find out
what you need in the way Of tools,
stock, fertilizers, etc, and arrange
to farm on a business basis.
8. Take at least one day off and
visit your school and encourage the
teacher and pupils little; help the
children with their studies and keep
them enthused.
4. Make that splitlog drag and
put it to work now while you have
time; fix up the farm roads and the
walks about the house.
S. Look about fences: clean up
stumps; dig bitches; fill gullies;
drain wet lands.
6. Set out fruit trees, shade
trees, shrubs and perennial vines.
z. Haul out the manure as made
and spread it on the fields; be sure
to give the garden a good coat.
s. Plow CLAW lands and those
wanted for early crops, taking spec
ial care to guard against winter
washing; SOW rye on plowed lands,
if practicable.
9. Kill the hogs as soon as con-
dition and weather will permit; keep
close watch on all stock and abop
the poultry houses,
10. Make the winter evenings
pleasant; provide splenty Of fuel,
good lights, good books and papers
and some games and music. Pro
gressive Farmer.
