A very pretty home wedding oc-
Cured at the home of Mr.. and Mrs

$50 o'clock, when their daughter,
Miss Regina B., was united in mar

Harris, J. M. Baker and family, of
White City, and Rev. and Mrs. z.
Moore. A wedding supper was
served after the ceremony.
The bride is one of the most
popular young ladies of HoiSing-
ton, who, by her quiet, unaSSum-
ing ways, has made unnumbered
friends in this community. She
is a skilled pianist and for several
years has taught music, both here
and at Claflin, her services as
teacher being constantly in de-
mand. She was attired in a beau

Arthur Capper is entitled to the
belt as the champion wobbler in
Kansas politics. When the Pro-
gressiveS met at independence al
fer the 1912 election to organize
the Progressive party in the state
Arthur was there and made a
speech. 1t is charged that Arthur
then cut loose from his Republi-
can mooringS, sang Onward,
Christian Soldier" as loud as any
body and assured the assembled
ProgreSSiveS that they could no
more turn back now than could
Patrick Henry in the days just
before the Revolutionary war.
When the charge was made Ar
thur might have refused to answer
on advice of counsel or he might
, have plead emotional insanity and
got away with it. He chose, how
ever, to deny the allegation and
challenge the alligator to the
proof. There was where he made
his mistake. A cloud of witness
es appeared at once to give teSti-
mony but insisted in having it
written into the record that Ar
thurs reputation for truth and
veracity was bad. They proved
the case by preponderance of
the evidence.
As a result of this little perfOr-
nance Arthur has lost the respect
of the progressive element in the
state.
On the other hand, Arthur has
MT. the confidence of the stand
party. They don't trust him. They
know that a conference was held
after the primary in which the
question of getting Henry Allen
.Out of the race for governor of
Capper would support Murdock
was discussed. That nothing
came of the conference doesn't
satisfy. They want to know why
Capper even consented to discuss
the proposition.
The Standpatter also is asking
why the Capper publications are
not whooping it up for Curtis for
writing up the Republican meet
ingS over the state occasionally
carries the statement that Mr..
Curtis also spoke but up to date
there hasn't been a single line in
the Capper publications urging the

time he has held the position as,

evening for a two weeks honey
moon trip to Denver and upon

"The Danish paper National

that Great Britain had promised

"The German press praises the

Curtis are asking why.
What is true of Curtis is also
true of Canderhead, Anthony,
Campbell and the rest of the stand
pat congressional nominees, and
their friends are asking whether
Capper is afraid to support the
ticket for fear he might lose a few
votes for Capper for governor.
Then there is Joe Dolly, The
bankers of the state remember
the time when Dolly was bank
commissioner and they are all
contrasting the present honest,
administration ofthe
banking department of the old
days when Dolly was in charge.
They are asking Mr.. Capper if
DoIIey will be bank commissioner
again if he is elected governor but
can get no satisfactory answer
from him. They remember that
the Independent Harvester COM

long after the correspondence in

showed that Dolley knew the char

are asking if Dolley has Stran-

him from answering the question.

Mr.. and Mrs. Louis Cook came
up from Kiowa, Kansas, the first
of the week for a visit with rela-

ton county friends. Mr.. Cook re-
ports that crops were very spot
ted in his part of the country,
some of the wheat yielding as
high as 81 bushels per acre and
some fields as low as 8 bushels.
The corn crop was practically a
total failure, while part of the
feed crops are good and part will
hardly pay to put up. They
have had some good rains lately,
however, and the wheat has gone
into the ground in fine shape and
gives promise of an abundance
of fall and winter pasture, which
will help out on the feed queS-
tion to a great extent.
