by j OShua Gro1c-
Name, Surface and Streams
The county was defined and named
after Letenant Trego, of Company
H Twelfth Kansas Infantry, by an act
Of the legislature in 1868. The gen
eraI surface is rolling, rough and
broken along the Saline river in the
northern portion Cedar Bluffs on the
Smoky Hill river in the southern por-
ton extend along the river for a dis
lance of one and a half miles. Round
Mound, a high elevation in the south
eastern portion is a conspicuous land
mark visible for many miles in all di-
rections.
There are no timber belts but a
few small groves appear along the Sa-
line river and other streams and some
cedar at Cedar Bluffs. The varieties of
natural timber found are white ash,
box elder, elm, cottonwood, blackberry
and cedar.
The Smoky Hill river enters the
county five miles north of the south
west corner and flows directly east.
| After running six miles from the
| west line it receives the blackberry
creek flowing from the northwest.
Wild Horse and Elm creek are tribu-
! taries from the south and Downer
creek from the north. Big Greek
| crosses the western boundary a little
north of the center and flows through
the county in south and east direc-
| ton K1nnie creek flows into it from
the south and Ogal1ah creek flows int
it from the north. The Saline river
enters at the northwest corner of the
I. county and flows north to east skirt
ing the northern boundry of the coun
ty. Trego, Springer and other small
creeks are tributaries from the south

DISCUSSING PRIMARY ELECTION
LAW

Since the recent primary, which re-
vealed the fact that Republican
ballots were called for by hundreds
and thousands of men who never vote
that ticket, either to help some friend
who was running on the Republican
ticket, to try to defeat some par
ticu1arIy strong candidate in the in
terest of their own party at the gem
eraI election, there has been a general
cry that the primary is a failure. Old
line politicians, who have always OPP
posed the primary, are especially bit
ter and declare the primary must go.
The primary, however, is here to stay.
That may as well be accepted by
friends and foes alike. The people
will never consent to go back to the
old convention methods. That is the
surest thing under the sun. Obvious
ly then, the thing to do is to try to
find the weaknesses of the primary
and cure the defects by remedial leg
| islation. One of the greatest troubles
| since the primary has been established
| is the fact that the majority party
! has been forced to follow the line
laid down by the law, while the minor
| ity parties have all ignored the spirit
as well as the letter of the lay. The
Republican party happens to be the
1
/ result always gets the worst of it.
| The Democrats would suffer the same
way if conditions were reversed
/ Osborne Farmer
There is general feeling that the
present primary law as it is, does
not meet the needs of the voters
Jack Harrison, of the BeIoit Gazette
had an editorial last week, proposing
that there be a registration day, and
that none be allowed to participate
in a primary who had not registered
speeding at the time of registering
to which party he was affiliated. We
believe the plan we suggested last
, week, that of having the voter name
5 his party, when calling for a ba1lo1
at the November election, thus regis
tering each year would be less ex
} pensive, and would also result in reg
istering all who would care to vote
while registration day would brins
out only the politicians. But Harr:

WHITEFIELD'S 15OTH
ANNIVERSARY TO-DAY
Many Churches TO Have Special Services
Next SundRy-Died i'm Newbury-
port, Mass, in 1870.

NEW YORK, Sept 3O.-Today is the
I5gth anniversary of the death of George
Nhteheld, the founder of the Calvinistic
Methodlsts and one of the most famous
eyangehsts since the Apostle Paul.
Many churches of the United States, not
only of the Methodist but of other de-
nominations as well, have arranged to
commemorate the anniversary, the most
OF them with special sermons to be
preached from their pulpits next Sunday.
George Whitefeld's name will be for
ever associated with the history Of re-
vivalism in England and America. Al
though not one of his sermons is read
able today, he moved men as probably
no other field preacher ever did
In all, Whitefield paid seven visits to
America. In the intervals between his
American labors he evangelical Scotland
and Wales. and everywhere his ministry
was attended by the same phenomenal
success. A feature of his work was the
innovation of, open-air preaching to au-
diences often in excess of 10000, by all
of whom his astonishingIy powerful and
musical voice could be heard 1t is said
that he delivered not less than $4,000
sermons.
In l74l he separated from the Wesleys
on doctrinal grounds and followed the
pure Calvinistic line to the end. He be
gan his last American tour in 1863 in
great feebleness. His last sermon was
delivered at Newburyport, Mass, Sept.
%. l770 That verv. night he died, chok
ing to death. He lies buried in the Pres
byterian church at Newhuryport, be
tween two pastors of the church, in the
vault underneath the pulpit.

NEW COMMANDER
yentiOn Refuses to Put the League
Into Politics

CLEVELAND. o., Sept. 30.-J. w
Galbraith, ir., of Cincinnati was unani-
mously elected national commander OF
the American legian here yesterday at
the closing session of its second annual
convention.
A passing of a resolution which puts
the American legion on record as being
in favor of the exclusion of Japanese as
immigrants, cancellation of the so-called
''gentlemen's agreement" with Japan,
the exclusion of picture brides" and the
decision OF the convention to continue
it's policy aE ''strict neutrality" in re-
gard to po'ftical questions were the pre-
dominating questions acted upon.
On recommendation of the American
izatiOn committee the convention voted
that the National Americanism commits
sion be adequately financed, that its ac-
tiyities be concentrated on a nationwide
educational, Americanization and pro-
American work and propaganda, ade-
quately financed and that it's Office be
moved from New York to legion head
quarters at Indianapolis.
Other outstanding features of the re-
port adopted by the convention were -
Urging a congressional study of la
Dor needs of Hawaii in view of the need
for adequate supply with japanese inn
migration cut off.
Commenting the work of the depart
ment of Hawaii in securing preference
for American citizens in employment and
demanding citizen labor on federal work.
Urging that colleges give entrance
credit for work in American history and
civil government and that these subjects
be taught in elementary and high schools
and required for graduation.
Favorins many Americanism activi-
ties including work for and among immi-
grants, for school children and among
aliens within the United States.
The fight during the afternoon came
on the question of political restriction.
When the committee on constitutional
amendments made it's report. it suggested
g few amendments to certain articles of
the constitution, the principal one be-
ing that no person shall be eligible for
reelection to the office of national COM
mander or national vice commander.
1T did not mention politics.
However, az explained by Chairman
Erie Fisher Wood. PENNSYLVANIA. be-
cause of the discussion on the question
OF political restrictions, it was decided
by the committee a whole that ma
Jority report and a minority report
should be presented. The report of the
majority, which concurred 80 to in
committee, recommended that the legion.
through its organization has the right
under it's charter and constitution to as
ttl TAIN loF the Information or Its MEM
bers the attitude of candidates for pub
=" office towards such policies and prin-
cples."
The minority report merely recon-
mended that ''the report of the majority
be defeated
The debate which followed was al
most as stormy as that which followed
the presentation of the Japanese reso-
luton. 4 motion for a roll call was
finally made and the vote stood 1853 vot-
ing against the majority report: 142
voting for it, three not voting As the
matter now stands, the legion will pur-
sue it's past attitude i'm regard To nolitico1
