Kansas Progressives Will Main
tain Faith in Colonel.
State Convention to Select Dele
gates in Topeka Tuesday.
NEARLY SIX HUNDRED TO COME
Representatives From Nearly
Every County in Kansas.
And All Resolutions VIII Total
200 Words, Says White.

Kansas Progressives are expected to
reaff1rm their allegiance and falth IN
Theodore Roosevelt when the tn1ro
party workers meet in Topeka Tues
day for the state convention The
purpose of the convention is the Sc
lection of 13 delegates and 1S alter
mates to the national convention.
Resolutions to be adopted by the con-
vention will probably endorse the
stand of Roosevelt on national poll
cies, the policies of the Progressive
party in it's former campaigns and may
urge the nomination of Roosevelt In
Chicago.
Nearly 500 Kansas Progressives are
expected to attend the state conven-
ton. Delegates have been selected
from almost every county in the state,
and leaders in the party believe that
a majority of these counties will be
represented in the convention Will
liam Allen White, Progressive national
committeeman for Kansas, will be one
of the prominent men in Tuesday
meeting White will come to Topeka
this evening as a guest of the Topeka
Press Club and will tomorrow direct
the affairs of the Kansas Bull Moose.
Many Are Coming.
U. S. Sartin, chairman of the state
committee; Sheffield ingalls, of Atchi-
son, o. w Dawson of Great Bend,
Mike Sutton of Dodge City; Helen
others active in the affairs of the Pro-
gressive party in 1914 are expected
Sartin will probably preside at the
meeting which will be held in the
auditorium. In addition to the selec-
ton of delegates to the national con-
vention, the convention will arrange
for the filing of names of candidates
for presidential electors and for the
placing of a congressional ticket in
the field.
Resolutions for the convention have
not been drafted, White stated today
over the long distance telephone. They
will, however, be very short

doubt, though, that the convention will
pass Teddy resolutions and reaffirn
| it's former action. But there will be
very little verbiage in the resolutions
almost a record of brevity, you NIGH
say. I really think the entire set OF
resolutions which will go before the
state convention will not exceed Isl
to 200 words"
| Many of the third party leaders viii
come to Topeka tonight. A number O.
women have been elected as delegates
to the convention, and it is probabl,
that the new voters will be both prom
inent and active in the convention 1
is also probable that the Progressive
will vote to send some one or TIVE
women to Chicago.

ROBBED BY A WOMAN
Indications That Wehe Home Was
Entered by Burglars.

Because of a handkerchief and a
footprint the police believe it was
woman who robbed the home of j. ].
Wehe at HOS Van Buren, street sun
cay night.
The house was entered while the
family was entertaining company. The
burglar used a box to get in at the
window, dropped a handkerchief in
one of the rooms and left a woman's
size footprint in the yard. A watch
and case taken from the house were
found near the front gate.
The Wehes know the box was not
under the window before the burglary,
they know the handkerchief does not
belong to any member of the family,
and that the footprint was not made
by any one of the household. The rob-
berry was not discovered until the fam
lily was ready to retire. Mr.. Wehe
believes the burglar was frightened
away when he went out to close the
garage door

Harper, adjoining on the west, has a

acre of about 1875 bushels, on the
100000 acres of growing wheat as
reported a month ago. 1t should be
borne in mind, however. that the
acreage figures are subject to revi-
sion later, when the official returns of
assessors are received.
According to this investigation there
has been marked depreciation in the
Kansas wheat prospect, as a whole, i'll
in the so-called wheat belt" of the
central third of the state, because of
Hessian fly and dry weather, and in
some of the western counties, espe-
cially in the southwest, through lack
of sufficient moisture. In the east
ern part the prospect has been pretty
well maintained. Recent rains, quite
general throughout the state, have re-
Heved moisture conditions, except in
the southwest portion, where rain is
still needed. The chinch bug is not
mentioned by single reporter, but
the green bug caused considerable
damage in several south central coun-
ties, notably in Cowley. Harper, Sedg-
wick and Sumner. There is consid-
cradle complaint in some of the more
prominent wheat producing counties
of the poor color of the wheat, and
uneven and spindly growth. This is
variously attributed to the Hessian
fly, poor seed beds, lack of vitality
in seed and winds and dry weather
Big Counties Suffer.
Important wheat producing counties
suffering the greatest injury, which is
reflected in the lower prospective
yields indicated, are Stafford, Pratt
Sumner, Mcpherson, Saline and OF
tawa, where not to exceed 10 bushels
to the acre is anticipated while Stat
ford looks for no more than bushels
The seven counties of Barton, Ford
Pawnee, Pratt, Reno, Stafford and
Sumner, having 10000 or more acres
or considerably more than one-fifth
of the states total, report a prospec-
tive acre yield of about IL bushels

As the season advances injury by
the Hessian fly is more and more
manifest. This pest appears to be
present in greater numbers in the
counties having the larger acreages in
wheat. 1t seems to be combining its
activities pretty exclusively to the
wheat fields of the central third of the
state, and has in many cases despoileo
