1T is UP TO PATRONS
If l.. & t. Friends Want Railroad They
Must Get Busy, Says Pollock.

If patrons of the Leavenworth &
Topeka railway, running between
Leavenworth and Meriden, decided
that continued operation of the road
is worth $50, 900 to them the property
will rot be junked. Tuesday, in the
federal court at Kansas City, Judge
John c. Pollock of the federal court
issued AN order which provides that
the line may be sold for an operating
line in thirty days for the specified
amount.
Under Judge Pollock's order patrons
of the line have first chance at the
purchase. Immediately after the
ruling tie fifty representatives of the
territory served by the line who were
at the hearing called a meeting for
Saturday at Oskaloosa- Whether or
not the patrons will try to buy the
road or get some other line to pur-
chase it is a problem. Leavenworth
shippers are DESTROYS of forming a
company and taking it over. Topeka
shippers. it is said. are not so
optimistic.
F. L. Wells, president of the COM
pany which owns the line at present,
testified in court that the road is
losing $1,000 a month. He asserts it
can be sold for junk for 100000 to
100000.
The Leavenworth & Topeka con-
troversy has simmered down to an all
most parallel case to that of the
'tjitney'' line in western Kansas. Pa
irons must operate it or it will be
junked The purchase of the line
must be made in thirty days or moth
ing will stand in the way of its being
discontinued.

Plans Friday To Take Up Mort
Albaugh's Reins.
Meeting of Supporters With w.
A. White at EmpOria.
WILL NAME THE new LEADER
Man Who Knew Albaugh CAM
paign Coming to Topeka.
Headquarters To Be Opened Up
Here Very Soon.

William Allen White announced to-
day he had called a number of the
warm personal friends of the late
Morton Albaugh of Topeka to En-
poria for a conference Friday. The
meeting will be held to arrange for
the opening of Henry J. Allen head
quarters and to direct the opening of
number of Albaugh's close friends and
political associates will attend the
meeting.
All members of the executive COM
mittee in charge of the Allen cam
paign will meet in Emporia and today
receive announcement from White as
to the purpose of the meeting. 1t is
probable that an agreement will be
reached as to the man who will direct
the campaign organization work from
the Topeka headquarters. Fred E.
Stanley of Wichita, Republican ma
tional committeeman; Willis ]. Bailey
of Atchison, former governor; and a
number of other prominent Kansans
have been urged. White stated over
the long distance telephone today that
he had received letters from several
hundred friends of Albaugh suggest
ing a successor in the campaign work.
To Be Friend of AIbaugh.
II know we won't get anyone who
can carry on the work as Mort had

ever is named will be a man who was
familiar with Albaugh's plan of organ
ization and who was his personal
friend. 1t will not. however, be a man
who is identified with the organization

any other office"
The Allen meeting will be held in
Emporia at noon Friday. Governor
Bailey of Atchison is slated to sue
coed Morton Albaugh as a member OF
the executive committee from the
First district He is also boosted as
chairman of the state organization.
Allen headquarters will probably be
opened in Topeka as soon as desirable
quarters can be secured. Quarters in
several office buildings are being con-
sidered, and it is probable plans will
be worked out at the Emporia meet
ing which will permit the opening OF
Allen for governor offices here

Why Chilly Weather
Brings Rheumatism
Says skin pores are closed and
uric acid remains
in blood.

rheumatism is no respecter of age,
sex color or rank. If not the most
dangerous of human Affections, it is
one of the most painful. Those sub
ject to rheumatism should eat less
meat dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and, above
all. drink lots of pure water
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weather the skin pores are
closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do
double work. they become weak and
sluggish and fail to eliminate this
uric acid, which keeps accumulating
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles. causing stiffness. soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in a glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This Is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, com bined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism Here you have a pleas
ant, effervescent lithia- water drink
which overcomes uric acid and is ben
eficial to your kidneys as wen--Adv.
