REMOVE JE.NNISON'S BODY.
Early Day Freighter of Kansas Will
Lie Beside Remains of Wife.

Leavenworth, Kan, May 1.-THE
grave of one of the fighters who help
ed make Kansas history in the early
days and whose name was known
throughout the country, who was laid
to rest at Mount Muncie cemetery,
has been opened and the remains
have been disinterred and made ready
for shipment to California.
1t was the grave of Col Charles
R. Jennison, leader of an early day
band of raiders who engaged in the
warfare in the Missouri valley prior
to the Civil war and who later led
two regiments of volunteers as
colonel and was active in the stirring
frontier times. He was one of the
most prominent men buried at Mount
Muncie cemetery.
Recently his wife, Mrs. Mary Jen-
nison, died in California. She was
buried at Mountain View cemetery at
Oakland and the remains of the fire
eating Kansan who played such a big
part in the making of the Jayhawker
state will be placed in an adjoining
grave.

TRAVIS FOR 7. R.
Representative From Allen
County Out for the Colonel.
Was Strong Standpatter Four
Years Ago.
BELIEVES C0UNTRY'S HOPE
Lies in Election of the Man
From Oyster Bay.
The One Man Who Can Beat
Wilson, He Says.

Frank L. Travis, state representa-
tive from Allen county, is out for
Roosevelt-strong. Travis who has
carried the stand pat banner in every
campaign in Kansas in twenty years.
is in Topeka today and declared that
he wants Roosevelt and none other as
the nominee of the Republican ma
uonal convention in Chicago.
In the campaign of four years ago,
Travis was among the first state wide
leaders to declare war on the Roose-
welt crowd He carried trouble to
Roosevelt and everyone who supported
Roosevelt in the 1912 campaign. He
refused to support Stubs or Capper
or any of the candidates on the Re-
publican ticket who showed ten
denotes of going to T. r. He was
loud in his charges that the support
of Roosevelt was an attempt to steal
the Republican party in this state.
Two years ago Travis made the
fight for the legislature in Allen
county. Again he refused to yield an
inch He fought the Progressives in
his county and district and won. In
the house he was chosen administra-
ton whip and with his experience of
four years in the state senate, Travis
drove the Republicans to party align
ments on almost every occasion when
a party rally was necessary to save
a pet bill.
Out for the Colonel.
Now, after all his record for true
and loyal fighting in the ranks of the
stand-patters, Travis is out for the
colonel. He has broken with Charles
F. Scott, editor of the lola Register,
and one of the delegates-at-large to
the national convention. Travis has
also stood out against other members
of the old crowd. But he is sincere
and firm in his conviction that Colonel
Roosevelt is the man to meet the
present situation and that his nominal
ton will insure Republican success in
November. Roosevelt is the one man,
Travis believes, who can untangle the
present international middle and pre-
serve the dignity and standing of the
nation.
Il am for Roosevelt because he is
an American through and through"
declared Travis today. Second I am
for him because he is the man who
can beat Woodrow Wilson. True, down
in my district there is a bunch of
the old stand pat gang threatening
to balk in such an eventuality, but /
believe they will line up all right ff
Roosevelt is the nominee in the Chi
cago convention"
Travis is in Topeka for the first
time in several months. He is re-
covering from an injury which he
sustained last winter when he fell on
an Icy pavement. Some time ago
Travis announced his intentions of
making the fight for reelection to the
legislature from his district It is
probable that he will also be a can
d1date for the speakership.

MIXUP AT JEWELL CITY. ~
Town Would Build High School and
Community House.

Jewell City, Kan, May 11.-Browns
Creek township is considering CONSOLE
dation of district schools and a high
school. At a public meeting held at
MAYHEM the majority sentiment was
strong for the move. Opposition was
from town because Browns Creek
township lies SO near and a portion of
it is wanted in the proposed central
high school district, to be located
here.
A proposition to establish a COM
munity house is also on foot in con-
nection with the Central high school.
Residents of the town are working
within a radius of five miles of Jewell
to get a bond election for $4,000
community house and $50, 900 school
building. An interesting contest be-
tween town and rural communities is
promised. The majority of wealth is
in the country. Some of the people
favor the high school and not the
community house.
