Several Sixth district congressional
conventions have been held in Colby.
The most exciting one was the Repub

the state adopted the primary system
of voting. In that contest there were
three candidates, Webb McNall, Smith
county; Louis Hanback,, Osborne
county. and Z. ]. Turner, of Sheri-
dan county, who was seeking renomi-
nation. Whether right or wrong, one
of the candidates who had the pull
seemed to believe all was fair in poll

in, one from Mitchell county, and
another from Sherman county. Tur-

him a few weeks before the meeting
of the convention, so his opponents
started the contests. He said to your

meeting: Il can't do any thing more

was the regularly elected delegates,
three of them. from Sherman county.
The contest unseated them, and gave
AlcNall three more votes, and enough
to nominate him. The regular elected
chairman of the delegation arose from
his seat, and said: Gentlemen of the
convention: if we can't get justice
here We will at the polls" Then they

the Colby convention, when Sherman
county fell into line for the election
of VIM. Baker, the only Populist ever
elected to congress from the district.
Among Turner workers was Jim
Legate, a noted state politician.
The Sixth district was shy of news
papers in June, 1878. The following
editors attended the State Editorial

Twenty-Five Men Busy Arrang-

Standing like big open books on the
prairie, there is a large number OF inn
mense signs advertising United States
tires on a farm south of Topeka, on
the Topeka avenue road. One side of
the book contains the company's adj
vertisement. the other a brief history
of the town near which the sign is to
be placed.
A crew of more than twenty-five
men are busy erecting. painting and
arranging the signs for shipment. The
gang has been in Topeka for about
month. but bad weather has delayed
their work. They expect to finish the
work in June.
The noise of hammering. pounding.
and the grating of metal against metal
can be heard for long distance from
the scene of activity and makes one
curious as to what industrial work
could be going on out there in the
country.
Like Giants Schoolroom.
The signs are of metal. They are
made detachable. When cut and fit
ted together they are placed under
wooden shelter. where the painters
work, making up the ad. decorating
the signs, and painting in the history
of the town for which they are intend
ed. A sign labeled Emporia gives
some idea OF the radius the crew in
tend to cover about Topeka. They will
prepare signs for practically the en-
tire eastern half of the state. When
the signs are completed. the big books
are taken apart, numbers OF them are
then loaded on one of the company $
motor trucks and they are hauled
away to the place where they are to
be set up.
The big row of painted books set
up on the prairie to dry makes one
wonder what giants are doing little
studying among the COWS and chick
ems. But 1t is lust the plan of q big
firm to make it's wares better known.
A dozen or more of the signs are to
be located at advantageous places
about Topeka.

In the early spring there is no

hue and sweet fragrance as the Iris.
Well she deserves her name, 1.-The
Rainbow" fer nothing else can de-
scribe the many shades of color. In
the old Greek myth, Iris was the sis

storm, and was represented to NOR
tails by the rainbow. She was as swift
as the wind. and had beautiful wings
of radiant, shining gold When Juno
wanted to send some special, impor-

Iris. She carried messages for Juno
all over the world. unto the ends of
the earth. and even into the depths of
