count of hard times have been allow

Senator Howe of Dickinson county
today sent in a petition to the senate

The well known and mutilated al
cohol bill appeared in the senate again

Believing that the estimated crop
reports sent out by different sources
in Kansas are injurious to the farm
ers on account of their effect on the
fluctuation of prices, Senator McMil-
Ian of Ottawa has introduced a bill in

owners of all threshing outfits to re-
port their output In grain to the
county clerks of all the counties in
the state. The county clerks will re-
port it to the head of the agricultural
colleges, where a total report can be
made. The bill is a direct slap at
various estimates made in Kansas on
grain production.
If a bill by Senator Wolf of Frank
lin county passes the legislature, the

investigation will be reported to the
county commissioners

TO Judge William II King has fallen
the honor Of being the first Democrat in
Utah 10 be put forward as candidate
for the United States senate, to succeed
Reed Smoot The election. which viii be
by popular vote. is more than year in
the future. The election machinery OF
the state will have to be changed so as
to conform to the constitutional amend
ment before an election can take place.
II Is presumed. of course, that the gov
ernor Will call special session OF the
legislature to pass the necessary meas
ure. in ordor that votes may be cast for
senator at the next general election, or
that the legislature, which comes into
power I'm January 1915. Will amend the
election machinery and empower the gov
ernor TO call special election early in
that year for the selection OF a United
states senator. Nothing definite has
been decided upon.
Judge King. when asked concerning
his Intentions. yesterday said
1t is true that number OF my
friends have been urging me to be-
come candidate for the United
States senatorship. but I have taken
no action In the matter. In fact If
] had to give an answer at this time
/ would decline the honor. However,
the matter is more than a year in

course. the spirit that has prompted
my friends to urge me TO become a
candidate. but. as ] said before there
is abundant time In which to con-
slider the matter. and L will consider
It carefully before making an an
nouncement.
Judge King, after serving a term as
representative from Utah In the United
States congress, was n candidate for
United States senator in the memorable
contest Of 1899. when A. w. McCune led

iantly from the first ballot until tho last,
but the Legislature adjourned without

quest from Dr. 7. G. Palmer OF the

taken.
Mr.. Chambers recently returned from

him, there are many diseased birds In
