Route A..
(By Raw Hand.)

Another hard rain Saturday.
Local rains are falling and ere
long we may get but little or nc
rain. Most of the corn is well
advanced and has had fair Guilt
walton. Some crops, we are told,
have had no work, not even a
furrow toward cultivation. Such
crops can not amount to much
now. Wheat is about all in the
shock, but the continued wet
weather may cause much of it to
damage before it reaches the gar
ner.
F. 0. Goodeagle will soon have
the ferry going at the Village
ford, The people have been han
dicapped for sometime in getting
across Spring river and the new
ferry will be a welcome visitor.
The price for crossing will be
much reduced from former rates.
Well, we just staged into the
News Office last week-had a
shake-found both Smiths busy
manufacturing ideas and guess
inc at the weather. Smith took
Z me to tell us about that fifty by
fifty garden-what he had raised,
what he would raise, and what
Il would have cost if he had gone
TO the stores for it. He figured
Il out that he Had raised SIS
worth of vegetables from that
oue-sixteenth of an acre. Now
multiply SIS by 16 and you can
see what an acre would bring,
Smith farms that garden on the
intensified plan--a plan too few
follow in this section.
Then Smith showed us a bath
inc outft-a real beauty, cheap
and durable. VIII one gallon OF
water Smith said one could
thoroughly cleanse himself, it
made no difference how dirty.
Smith said he could stand ON the
caroet, take a refreshing bath
Ind not get one drop of water on
the carpet, When you 60 into

the News Office ask Smith to
show you his bath apparatus,
and you'll order one sure.
The political pulse has COM
menced to beat like a niger
maulin wood. By November the
pulsations will be highest or the
fever forever cooled never to boil
again. The Chicago fuss is over
and ere this reaches the waste
basket the Baltimore game will
be called and the two will turn
heads and, start thru the presi-
Dental pasture for the bars to the
barn.
One more week and all candi-
dates will be full pledged and
flying high. By November (cen-
teri a gang of sore heads will
start up Salt river never to re-
turn, and should go so far that
it cost ST. for one of them to
sent a postal home. We hope
the two conventions will be the
last in the history of the nation.
Let the people say.
While the market has been a
strained one all week the buyers
were able to hold down bids to
somewhat lower levels than pre-
vailed the week previous. The
range of bids was S54 to $3.50
but with much more ore selling
below $50 than above it for first

Brady for Congress.

Francis NJ. Brady, of Oswego,
is an active candidate for Con-
gress in this district, he having
filed his nominal papers with
the Secretary of State, June 10,
1912, thus being the first candi-
date for that Office to file. He is
in the race at the urgent request
of friends from every county in
the district. His petitions we're
filled out and returned from
every county with surprising
promptness with many times
more signers than were necessary.
Mr.. Brady was a candidate for
this Office six years ago and made
a great race running far ahead
of his ticket. He has always
worked hard and faithful for the
Democratic party and its priuci-
pies whether he was a candidate
or not, or whether there was a
chance to win or not. He is a
true Democrat with clean rec
ord and if nominated will make
a thorough, active vote-getting
campaign. He was twice elected
county attorney OF Labette coun-
ty and ran ahead of his ticket
each time, defeating E. C. Clark,
present district Judge, the last
time.
Francis M. Brady was born in
Chenoa, Mclean county, Illinois,
coming to this county as a child
with his parents 80 years ago,
and has lived here ever since.
Brady was born and reared on
the farm, taught school and for
the last twelve years or more has
been practicing law at which he
has had remarkable success. He
is one of the best orators in the
state and as a ready impromptu
DICTATOR, jury lawyer and public
speaker, he has few equals in the
country. He is a graduate of the
Kansas State University law de-
partment and a graduate of elo-
cution and oratory. He was the
winner of first Interstate debate
between Kansas and Nebraska
Universities.
He was a presidential elector
for Bryan in 1900 and has al
ways been an enthusiastic and
ardent progressive democrat of
the strongest type.
He is by far the strongest cam
didate mentioned by either party
for the place and will make a
strong campaign, and if nomin-
ated will be elected.
Frank M. Brady is now in the
Congressional race to win and no
doubt will receive more votes
than all his competitors for the
nomination. This district will
be represented in the next house
by a stand-pat congressman or
progressive democrat, and as
progressive Mr.. Brady appeals to
the voters of the district. His
election will add honor and fame
to the district and place a man
in Congress who will work for
the interest of his constituents
