MURDOCH FOR WILSON
Former Bull Moose Casts His lot
With the Democrats.

After weeks of waveriEg, Victor
Murdoch of Wichita, is out for Wilson
for president, in an editorial publish
ed in his Wichita Eagle. Murdoch is
now in the Orient gathering material
for magazine articles and chautauqua
speeches. His announcement created
little discussion in political circles.
Murdoch, who was formerly con-
gresham from the Eighth Kansas
district and was Progressive nominee
for United States senator it 1911, was
the last of prominent Kansas Pro-
greSsives to announce his political al
lignment When William Allen White,

Progressives were back in the Repub-

Republican leaders in Topeka show

were inclined to declare any action by
the former Progressive leader came
too late to be effective. Democrats
were inclined to view the announce

victory.

RUN WOLVES IN AUTOS
No Firearms Allowed in Annual
Greeley County Wolf Drive.

Tribune. Kan, Oct 23-The Greeley
county annual wolf drive has been an
nounced by Col George Thyfault and
Col William Carter. The date is fixed
for Monday a. m, October 80. This
is an annual event for all of western
Kansas, and every automobile from
the two-cylinder chain drive to the
new eight, is being repaired and all the
automobile garages are working over
the cars, getting ready for this event
Greeley county is on the Missouri
Pacific at the extreme west part OF
the state, and it has more good,
smooth, level land unoccupied than
any other county in the state of Kan
sas. The county is divided exactly in
the middle, north and south by the
railroad, and there are probably not
more than forty farmers or ranch
men living in the south side of the
county, and everything is open, or in
large pastures. containing thousands
of acres.
The drive last year included some
fifty automobiles. They secured the
north of Hamilton county, which is
north of Syracuse.
There are no guns to be allowed, but
the wolves are to be chased down by
automobiles, it being considered dan
gerous to have firearms. Already 100
automobiles have been leased to take
part in this drive. The country is
perfectly level and the Fords are in
the majority for the drive. Arrange
ments are being made for the moving
picture photographer to accompany
the drive this year as he did last.

Saturday night telephoning to neigh
boring towns. a description of Ford
car. that had not been stolen. 1t was
all mistake and the chances are that
the telephone bills must be footed by
the man who made the mistake.
K T. Mccormick, an employe of the
Emahizer-Spielman Furniture COM
pany, was sent on an errand by his
employers. He hurried out to the
front of the store where a Ford be-
longing to the store was supposed to
stand, cranked up car and drove
away with it ]. ]. King, who has an
office upstairs, in that vicinity, came
down within a few minutes and his
car was gone. He reported to Sheriff
L. L. Kiene that it had been stolen and
the search started.
After attending to his errand Nc
Cormick returned and left the car
where he found it. 1t was learned
then that the car ordinarily used for
store errands had been taken to a
garage by someone else.
