A superhuman effort is being made
to get newspaper in Linton that
can be controlled and handled by
the Lynn gang" Messrs. Warner.
at Eureka; Owens, at Mcintosh:
SLENDER, at Aberdeen; and others
have been unsuccessfulIy approached
with the proposition. And here is
one of the latest efforts:
Some time ago the writer re-
ceived a letter from Mayville, N.
D.. party asking for sample copy
of the Record 1t was not written
on the usual business letter head
but upon blank sheet of paper
such as is carried in stock in news
paper offices. Our curiosity was
aroused by the requ est and we at
once wrote to Mayville to determine
who and what the writer Of that
letter might be. The answer was
that he was in the printing business.
This, by the way, comes from the
former home Of ey-County Superin-
tendent Hanson.
Well, the second newspaper pro-
position has not as yet been made to
go, but as much time as possible was
desired for pushing the thing.
Hence. the effort on the part Of
some interested persons to delay the
designation of papers until such a
possible venture could he made to
succeed.
Our readers will at once ask why
the delay when officials papers are

is another dream of the former
states attorney: If some paper that
is down and out in some other coun
ty can be purchased for a song i.

position to apply for the county le'

of our readers we will say that there

The game is getting stronger.
No wonder George w. Lynn has the
name of being a dangerous man to
oppose.
Last summer, Immediately after
he was defeated in his pet ambition
to go to the state senate. he tried to
"sting" the writer for 500.
Later. by misrepresentation to the
board of county commissioners and
likewise to the attorney general. he
succeeded in getting the commits.
sioners to reject the bill of.;he news
papers for publishing the abstract
of votes of the primary. He used
his official position tn whip the com.
missioners into line to punish his
personal enemy. Then he conceived
the idea of shortening up the pro-
ceedings by running in" all bills.
ETC.. until they could hardly be un-
derstood by the reading public and
Immediately the county auditor hur-

fact that the Lynn outfit can de-
pend upon Volk and Klein. Per-
haps it is easy to see the bee in
Volk's bonnet. At former time.
when Volk was chairman. he hoped
onto the noon train al the conclusion
of meeting and left numbers of
county warrants unsigned. The
Record was one of those who was
forced to wait until the later adj
journed meeting before the war.
rants were signed and could be
cashed. Volk's memory is good and
he is only too glad to take a crack
at the writer whenever the oppor-
tunity offers. Why. when we at
tempted to appear before the board
ut former meeting when the pri-
mary abstract bill was up, he cour-
teously turned his back on us and
looked out the window while we
were talking. We tried to get him
to use his own head for once instead
of George W. Lynn's and tried to
get him to read passage of the
primary law. He refused to look at
the book. Messrs. Brant and Nc
Conville deserve the everlasting
gratitude of the people of this coun-
ty for heading Volk off from the
commanding position on the county
board. What can he the matter

The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1915-08-26

The meeting was called by Super
intendent r. j. Parker, mainly for the
purpose of getting ready for the semi
annual loss and damage meeting of
the system lines at Wichita the last
week in September. The Santa FEES
campaign for removing the causes of
freight loss and damage was started
in Topeka five years ago, and the
work has progressed satisfactorily ever
since.
The conference today is free-for-
all discussion of methods for Grating,
slowing md otherwise taking care of
freight shipments. Everybody IN the
meeting who has view is expected
to express it. A stenographic record
is 20 be kept of the proceedings. Many
suggestions offered at the district
meetings, after being tried out with
good results. are incorporated into the
companys rules for handling freight.

PURPOSE IN HAITI
e. $. Fears German Supremacy
i'm the West Indies.
Control of Black Republic a
Precautionary Step.

Washington, Aug. 26.-Fear that
Germany intends after the war to en-
trench herself strongly in the West
Indies is largely responsible for the
present activity of the United States in
attempting to establish a virtual pro-
tectorate over Haiti.
This is the plain inference from an
outline of the international sig
nificance of the developments in
Haiti, obtained from high admin
iStration official.
It was stated that it is not the in
tention of this government for the
present to seek a naval base on the
island of Haiti Nevertheless the
United States, unable to foresee the
ran1ifications of the results of the
European war, does not desire that
any other nation should establish
naval base in the West Indies. Two
years ago the United States was Of
fered a naval base at Mole st. Nicho-
las by the Haitien government. Ger
many for some time had been deslrouS
of establishing a coaling station at
that point. The United States then
indicated that while It had no need OF
such a base, inasmuch as it had one
across the Straits or Guantanamo, it
was unwilling that any other nation
should get it.
For several years it is learned also
this government has proposed to step
in and put the finances or Ha1u on a
In each instance the suggestion of
the United States has had the hearty
approval of the French government
and each time Germany has voiced
an objection.
Nothing came of these offers from
the United States. Now that Ameri-
can forces are on the island and con-
ditions have gone from bad to worse,
the administration has determined to
act.
Germany's solicitude concerning
her supremacy in the West Indies
led officials to believe that her oppo-
sition to American control of Haitfs
finances was predicated upon the
fear that the commercial interests of
this country in the West Indies would
be materially advanced by such an
Governments have risen and fallen
with such rapidity in Haiti that this
government has come to the .conclu-
sion that a resourcefuI power might
find it comparatively easy to acquire
the desired concession almost under
the, nose of the United States.

80 YEARS
George Nj. Eagle Oldest Clothing
Man in Topeka.

Announcement of the partnership
between Harry Snyder and George M
Eagle has brought to light Mr.. Eagles
record as the oldest clothing sales
man in point of service in the city.
Mr.. Eagle began selling clothing on
Kansas avenue in 1876.
Since he sold his first suit of
clothes on the avenue in '76, Mr.
Eagle has made few changes. Com
petition between various clothing
houses for his services made it advis-
able for him to move about a bit,
but since coming here no move has
been made by him to leave Topeka's
main street. For six years prior to
forming the partnership with Mr..
Snyder, Mr.. Eagle was with the Pal
ace Clothing company
Mr.. Eagle broke into the clothing
business in Coffeyville, Kan, in 1873.
Later he engaged in the same bust
ness in Hutchinson.
Harry Snyder IS we'll known in the
city, having been born and raised
here. For the past four years he has
been engaged in custom tailoring at
730 Kansas avenue, the home of the
new firm.
