To Run Special to SaIina

The Abilene high school will run
a special train to Salina Thanks
giving day for the Abilene Salinn
football game. BY having this spec
ial it will enable many of the stu
dents and business people of abb
lene who do not have cars and wish
to see the game to go TO Salina.
Two years ago Abilene high ran
a special to Salina for the game. A
large majority of the students and
many business men went to Salina
for the game and the school easily
paid the guarantee which it had
promised the railroad .
At the game two years ago Abb
lene had nearly as large a crowd as
Salina. The Boys band accompan-
led the roOters and made big hit.
Mr.. Olney. principal Of the high
school, intends to have the band
make the trip again this year. The
school would appreciate the support
Of the business men SO they may
come out financially.

Topeka, Nov. S-Headaches, cam

features. The story Of the voting Is
told by the telegraph. 1t is only In.
cidental. In a few days there VIII

Ing the landlord and the stenograph-
er ladies' and getting back to nor
NAL working conditions.
Apparently both the Republicans
and Democrats have finished the
campaign with considerable deficit.
It isn't an unusual situation FOR
either party, although two years ago
the Republicans closed headquarters
with assnug balance Of several thou
sand dollars in the treasury. This
year 1t locks like search for some
angel who will erase the red ink
entries. As for the Democrats 1t has
been .something of a hand to mouth
season. They bought postage stamps
and printing when the ravens came
and about all the reserve stock OF
ourbon Faith in ravens vanished be-
fore the election.
Tons of literature went into the
mails during the last week OF the
campaign. Consequently if the de-
fcits at headquarters are large 1T
looks like a hard winter for several
Topeka printers.
There was IA fine loyalty on the
part of workers ON the firing line.
This rule applied to the women as
we'll as the man. In numerous cases
volunteers worked nights and Sun
days in an effcrt to yut III final
knock cut blow before the election.
Tired, worn and weary-some OF
them with ambitions beaten down
by the results-the headquarters
crews will probably not get back to
the regular routine OF life before the
end or the week. The fight was the
most strenuous campaign battle in
Kansas in ten years.
Republicans were not lucky in the
final breaks Of campaign luck. The
little twists and turns during the
final week Of a campaign always ,
shatter the already tired nerves of
the men at headquarters. This year
there were a half dozen incidents
that made the G. O. P. leaders do
more than the average bit Of wor-
rying. 1t was only an abiding faith
in the party's normal majority of
10000 that gave the Republican
hope and courage in the
final hours.
Harvey Motter, internal revenue
collector and former state chairman,
gave the Republican leaders their
first chill Motter's haste to aid
Bird in the Eighth dis
