ANOTHER MASS CONVENTION.

The citizens mass convention held
thursday night was largely attended
and developments indicated that mat
ters coming up had received a con-
siderable amount of attention pre-
Vious to the time of assembling at
the court house.
! Jas. Clark was made chairman and
~. E. McMullen secretary. The chair
man announced the object of the
meeting as follows: To nominate. in
place Of E. R. Moses, Jr., who had
been nominated at a previous meet
ing as a candidate for the three-year
term in the capacity of Finance Com
missioner, and who had, since the
previous caucus, announced that he
could not, for business reason, accept
if elected, also that there would be
chosen one committeeman from each
of the four wards of the city.
Motion was made to declare the
candidate receiving the highest num-
Der of votes on the first ballot the
nominee of the convention. An
amendment was quickly offered to
make a majority vote necessary to
motion was then offered to nominate
by informal ballot which carried. The
informal ballot resulted as follows:
DR.. L. D. Lewis, 46, scattering %, to-
tai II, thus giving the nomination to
Lewis. Phe % scattering votes were
divided among ten candidates, none
of whom showed a strength of more
than four ballots.
Formal ballot to elect: Lewis 4S,
scattering 80, total rs. Lewis was de-
clared the nominee and accepted in
very neat speech, short and point
ed.
Committeeman were chosen in a
manner which amounted to a farce,
resulting as follows:
First Ward, Geo. Black; Second
Ward, Will Townsley; Third Ward,
Will Deal; Fourth Ward, Geo. Dun
can.
Indications were that this conven-
tion had been held at some prior
date, place of holding unknown, and
that the meeting in the court house
was merely to ratify, In city politics
is now the only place within our
state where the old miscarriage of
justice or decency known as the pub
lie convention is permitted to show
its disgusting countenance and We
believe some provision should be
made whereby this relic of the days
of gang rule could be done away
with entirely.

DISASTROUS PRAIRIE FIRES.

reports received from Finney, Gray
Ford, HOdgeman and Scott counties,
OF a series Of prairie fires which
swept parts Of those counties during
the high wind Sunday afternoon and
evening. indicate that there was
heavy loss.
Hundreds of square miles Of land
was devastated by the fires, feed and
forage, stacks of hay. barns and in
some instances houses were consum-
ed by the on-rushing flames, but so
far as can be learned, no lives were
lost.
Seven Different Fires.
There were at least seven different
prairie fires, all with disastrous ef.
fects, as follows:
One started in Finney county,
sweeping across the eastern end of
that county and into Hodgeman
county.
Another started in Gray county,
north Of ingalls,, and swept through
the country north of Cimarron, east
into Ford county.
Two other fires, each apparently
about five miles in length burned
through the northwestern part Of
Ford county, north of Dodge City,
reaching as far as the Sawlog coun-
try.
Two more broke out in the south
ern part Of Ford county.
Still another is reported to have
swept large part of Scott county.
at times thee flames flew before
the wind faster than the team the
fire fighters were driving could run.
The fire burned more slowly when it
was in the valleys, but each time it
reached hill it rushed over it in a
flash, the wind driving sparks, weeds
and grass ahead Of it for hundreds
Of yards.
1T was impossible to tell the ex-
tent of the fire during the daytime,
on account of the dust in the air.
THE whole sky was gray, and the
smoke and dust blended so thickly
the fire fighters could not see the
flames a half-mile away"
Santa Fe Track Burned.
The Finney county fire burned 2COO
feet of Santa Fe railway track, the
ties being charred, wooden bridges
burned out and telegraph poles
burned down near McCue. A Mexi-
can bunk house was consumed at
that station, but the occupants saved
their lives by fleeing to a gully.
Among the farm houses in Ford
county destroyed by the flames were
the homes on the forms of Mike
'Schoen and Will Thompson. At the
Thompson ranch all the buildings
were burned. ]. L. Wright lost
large amount Of property.
