Friday morning she was taken to the

wheat. The heaviest snow came In
the southwest counties, which needed

inches from Dodge City south and

Wheat in the western half OF the

was more favorable and it began to

WHEAT CROP LOOKING UP
Snow Blanket In Kansas Gives

.The Kansas wheat crop has .
new lease on life" says the latest
report of the weather bureau, "as Z
result Of the recent precipitations OF
rain and snow. In the eastern ana
southcentral counties 1t already was
greening up in fine shape when the
snow fell, and high hopes for It's re-
covery were entertained In the
northcentral and western countess
To what extent it will be able to re-
cover from the effects OF the long

not be determined until warmer
weather comes"
The blanket Of snow over the en-

covering for wheat, preventing II
from undergoing alternate freezing

ing why someone doesn't invent
an automatic fire alarm system for
use in notifying motorcycle riders

He would even carry can of

Abandoning the machine, he ran

'OLCOTT AT A
DISADVANTAGE
(From the Oregon Voter.

(From the Oregon Voter.)
If the recount in the Hall -Olcott
contest is confined to those pre-
eincts which gave OIcott heavy
majority, there is every REASONABLE
probability that Hall will win the
nomination. The reason is obvi-
Gus. There are some Irregularities
n nearly all precincts, but on the
average, each candidate gains OF
.oses about the SAME, as the ir-
regularities are not due to fraud
out simply to errors of election
Ind counting boards. Irregulari-
LES In precinct returning q
aeayy majority. for one candidate
would reduce that candidates ma
Jority. If the recount is applied
simply to those precincts where
one candidate had a heavy major
ty, that candidate would suffer q
considerable aggregate loss in his
vote. This loss, uue to the newt
4ble discovery of Irregularities,
would not have TO be a large loss
20 deprive Olcott of the nomina-
lion and give 1T to Hall.
However, If a recount were
made Of precincts which gave Hall
/ heavy majority, une irreguIari-
lies discovered there would tend
70 reduce the Hall vote. These
losses to Hall in all probability
would offset the losses to Olcotl
n the heavy Olcott precincts, SO
he result of an all-inclusive re
;ount probably would be to sus
lain the Olcott nomination.
Hall has a heavy advantage as
contestant, as he is amply provid
ID with Ku Klux Klan funds, ade-
Iuate to finance the costs Of re
counting just those precincts upon
which he has been adroit enough
20 base his contest, the heavy Hal
precincts. Oleott, as contestee, is
entirely at a disadvantage, as ii
lie wants the heavy Hall precincts
reeounted, he must finance the
costs, and there IS no organization
behind him with a lot OF money, as
the Ku Klux Khan is behind Hall
4unless a fund just started in Sa-
EN- for the purpose is heavily sup
ported). The net result Of par
tial recount, with the advantage
all to the contesting candidate
who is backed financially by a |
large organization, may be to
wrest from Olcott nomination to
which a complete recount would |
sntit1e him.
