MAJOR BROWN.
Major Brown, of Kingman County, a
Candidate for the Democratic
Nomination for the United
States Senate.
Major Brown is one of the old residents of Kansas and has resided most of the time in Kingman county. He is one of the common people, being a thorough farmer and up to date agriculturist and stock raiser. Like most of the people who as pioneers located in Western Kansas, he has endured many hardships, suffered many inconveniences and done without the luxuries and sometimes without some of the necessities of life, but through all these trying times of droughts, floods, grasshoppers, chinch bugs and other trying times he has remained an agriculturist and always a loyal Kansan.
He is a life long Democrat and whether in office or out has always consistently stood for democratic principles and candidates. He has served in the Kansas Legislature and has been honored by the lower house of that body by election to the office of speaker, the highest legislative office within the gift of the people of the state. As a member of the house, he was a leader, was so recognized by those of the opposite political faith as well as by those of his own party and by a republican speaker as well as by his own party was highly honored and at all times recognized and respected as a man of many fire parts, a man thoroughly posted on the affairs of the day, a splendid debater and politician, well versed in the rules of parliamentary law and in all things a man well
THE
MISSING
MAN
Major W. L. (Iron Jaw) Brown. qualified to represent the people of Kansas in the state legislature. Major Brown, while not a lawyer, is yet a shrewd public speaker and is always able to defend his position in an able and interesting manner. An speaker of the house he was a fine preceding officer, treating all with great courtesy, and with the utmost fairness. His committee assignments to the opposite party were especially fair and generous and in fact the entire service as speaker were of so high an order for ability, and fairness that all were agreed that he was an ideal presiding officer.
Major Brown is one who has many personal friends of the variety that stand by a friend through thick and thin. These many friends throughout the entire state of Kansas are now working as a unit for him for Senator from Kansas. They believe he will ably and creditably represent Kansas in the congress of the United States, in the upper house thereof, the most honorable legislative body in the world and in this belief they are supported by many who though not so intimately acquainted with him know of his record in the legislature, of his ability as a business man, farmer and stock raiser and of his hardships endured on the plains of Western Kansas, where a portion of the time he resided in a sod house.
These are Democratic times. Major Brown is a typical Democrat, has dominates in success and in defeat and has been loyal to the party and his caucus going up on down with the party has remained the same true Democrat and as such is entitled to and seems to be the logical man at this time to receive the nomination of his party and as the democratic nominee go before the people next fall and ask for their summer. He is a strong and leading candidate, making a whirl wind campaign his friends, everywhere we are working hard for him and his election at this time seems probable.
NORTHWEST MILLING CO.
KANSAS CITY KANSAS
Writing business at the mouth of the law.
Kenton City, Kansas is the home of many large and growing musea, facturing and industrial institutions
and among these is the South Western Milling Company. This company has a large and in every way modern milling plant.
They manufacture a number of of brands of high grade flour chief among these is the celebrated ARISTOS flour.
Their capacity though large is scarcely sufficient to supply the demand upon them. They have large elevator facilities, have on hand an abundance of the best grades of wheat and the products which they place upon the market a standard grade of flour and ranks with the best made, by the best machinery, by the most capable millers and from the best wheat. Mr. A. K. Dillon the representative of this institution is a thorough miller acquainted with the trade, a fine salesman and knows what the people want and how to sell it to them. He says he finds the people like the best and when you have the best or a standard article, ranking with the best on the market, equal to any other than salesmanship is easy. He says he has no trouble in selling the products of the South Western Milling Company.
This is the largest hard winter wheat mill in this country. They have an emense warehouse, which stores 20,000 barrels of flour. The mill is fifty-four by one hundred and forty feet and the warehouse is fifty by two hundred and the flour from this mill will be sifted through 1,100 silk cloths haneed by automatic packers and sewing machinery. Everything in connection with this mill is absolutely sanitary with the maximum amount of windows, and metal spouting and elevators and entirely fire proof. This as can be seen is a great institution the only one of its kind in Kashas and the largest of its kind in the entire country.
To erect and install such an institution is a mamoth job and one which none but the most capable business men and millers would attempt. It is also a fine thing for Kansas and Kansas City that they located it in our state, which places them as they are right at Kansas City the great railroad center of the west where they are in a position to get the best service from the railroads both in purchase and selling their flour. Their large storage capacity enables them to have on hand at all times an abundance of wheat and flour to supply the trade in an emergency and to guard against any wheat shortage or famine.
Kansas is fast becoming a manufacturing state as well as a framing country and such plants as this help to bring other manufacturing institutions to us. We need such plants as this and more of them and badly need more of the kind of men who are managing this great enterprise. Flour made from Red Turkey Wheat is the best. The flour made by this milling company is all made from the highest grade of Red Turkey wheat. Insist on having the best. Tell your dealer you want flour manufactured by the Southwest Milling Company. Their flour is the best on the market.
GREAT BEND
Mr. W. E. Stokes, of the firm of Stokes & Stokes, in the green house business in Great Bend is a candidate for postmaster. He is the secretary-treasurer of the Democratic Congressional Committee of the Seventh district. Mr. Stokes is a staunch Democrat, always loyal to his patty, great in defeat as well as in victory. He is an admirer of Congressman Neely and ably support him in his campaign for congress. Representative Neely should make this appointment as Mr. Stokes is deserving and Great Bend citizens, regardless of political affiliation want him to have the place. His Democracy is of the purest and best—never falters, and now that the party is in control in state and nation, such Democrats should receive the plums. The Great Bend post office would be well cared for if placed in his hands.
Mr. C. F. Younkin, the present clerk of Barton county is a candidate for renomination for that office. He is a representative Democrat and as such as well as a business man is popular and well liked by his fellow citizens. He has a strong personal following in his county and will receive a hadsome vote as he did when previously before the people as a candidate for preference at their hands. Mr. Younkin is a capable officer and giving a fine administration of the office which he fills and is liked by all those with whom he comes in contact and is especially satisfactory county clerk to those who have business with him. He has a strong personal following in the party and also among members of other parties. He will be renominated and elected

TOPEKA,KANSAS. FRIDAY MORNING JUNE 26. 1914.
Democratic voters of the county. Judge Hall is at this time one of the best officers of these courts the county ever had. The offices of probate judge and juvenile judge are among the most important in the state. Through the probate court every so often all of the real estate of the county passes and is administered, widows and orphans, many helpless have to come before him and have business in that court. People sue others many times from choice, but few people, except when they want a marriage liscence have business in the probate court in the first instance from choice, they go there because that is the place they have to go to protect their rights and conserve their property interests.
The creation of the juvenile court was a humane legislative act and the designation of the probate judge to be judge of that court also was very highly appropriate. Judge Hall looks out for the interests of all who have business before him and protects all with commendable vigilence. He is a fine man, a good judge and deserving of the support of the people of Barton county.
ARKANSAS CITY
Akansas City, one of the thriving cities of Southern Kansas is usually at the front in all things, religious, political, educational and commercially. Of one of her commercial institutions we wish to call the attention of our many readers to is the New Era Milling Co, which has a fine plant, officered and managed by very popular and capable business men and millers. The plant has a capacity of about one thousand barrels of flour per day and the product they turn out is all standard goods and makes the finest of bread, pies and cakes. Their leading brands are the "Polar Bear," "X. T. C." and the "Noxall."
Mr. A. J. Hunt is the president and R. C. Sowden is secretary and treasurer. These men are in the front rank as financiers, business men and millers. The plant runs night and day throughout most of the year and the business is constantly increasing, which fact is a glowing tribute to the quality of the product which the mill produces and to the ability, courtesy and personal following in the business world of the president and secretary. We would like to see them grow to such a extent that they would have to enlarge the plant and we predict that the popularity of their fine brands of flour and the management of the business will soon make an addition necessary. The people managing and interested in this establishment are all fine people, deserving of success, and have our best wishes for a continued and increased prosperity.
EMPORIA, KANSAS.
O. A. Horabaugh Dry Goods Co.
The O. A. Horabaugh Dry Goods Co. is one of the largest dry goods and general merchandise establishments in the state. It is under the management of Mr. V. R. Paxton. He is a great man and a merchant. The volume of the business is enormous. They carry a large line of all grades of goods, the finest of silks and fabrics and the cheaper cotton goods.
Emporia is a thriving city and commercially taps a vast area of country.
Mr. Paxton stands well with the other merchants of the locality and with the patrons of the store.
This store has a large floor space and the value of the stock on hands at all times is immense. They have a small army of clerks, all competent and agreeable, and all well liked by their manager and he is liked by them as well.
These is no city anywhere the size of Emporia which can boast of an establishment superior to this. We are personally acquainted with Mr. Paxton and have been for years, and from our acquaintance with him as a man, a financier and merchant, we can readily understand the eminent success of a business under his management. Failure with such as he at the head would be out of the question. Any person wishing anything in their line should not pass this store by. They should visit this gigantic store before making a purchase elsewhere, and try, if possible, to meet and become personally acquainted with Mr. Paxton.
HUTCHINSON, KANSAS.
Beno. County.
Hon. Franklin P. Hettlinger of the "Salt City," Hutchinson, is making a great race for the Democratic nomination for Congressman in the Seventh district. He is a candidate to succeed Hon. Geo. A. Neely, who is his year a candidate for the United States Senate. We have just finished a careful canvass of the entire Seventh district and find that Mr. Hettlinger is the strongest candidate in the race. He is popular with all classes, is a thorough gentleman, an able business man and the man of the hour in the congressional canvass in this district. He is now in the prime of life, is one of the great lawyers of the state, being recognized as such throughout the state and district. He is a strong advocate of democratic principles and is a leader of his party in Kansas.
He is in every way the logical man to represent this district in congress because a man of many fine parts, magnetic, able and energetic. He
has lived in Kansas many years, has always been active in the business, social and political affairs of the state particularly in the seventh district and Hutchinson, his neighbors all respect and honor him and all concede him to be congressional timber, and congressional size. They know that in him they have a candidate before them who is competent to fill the place and that if he is elected they will not be misrepresented.
He has a fine and well appointed office and all his surroundings indicate the man of ability and one well poised and balanced, well suited for a seat in the hall of congress. He is popular in his county and in all the other parts of the district, having strong and influential friends in large numbers where ever he is known, as he is one who to know him is to admire him.
He stands by the national administration and is pledged if elected to do what he can to sustain and further the policies of President Wilson and his administration. His democracy is pure, he long has been an active worker for democratic principles and for all that pure democracy stands and represents. He thinks as do many people of his district that it is folly to elect persons to congress who are out of harmony with the party, the administration and the people as many candidates are. Mr. Hettinger is not subject to this objection as he is in entire harmony with the people, the times, the party and the administration and with President Wilson personally.
In the past he has stood for all in nation, state and city that was best for the country, the party, the state and the people and all that was giband and best in Civil affairs and he will continue in the future as in the past to take his stand for right and as congressman from this state he can and he will be a representative of whom all can be proud whether living in the seventh or some other district of the state. (The great consensus of opinion is as we find that he is the best qualified man for the place and taking all conditions into consideration the logical man for congress from the Seventh Kansas Congressional district.
We know him well, he is a fine man, to know him is to like him when you once meet him you want to meet him again and each time you meet him you admire him more than ever. He has our personal good wishes and we assure the voters of this district that they will not make a mistake when they vote for him.
Mr. S. P. Rowland is a candidate to succeed himself as county superintendent of schools of Reno, Kansas. He is a candidate subject to the will of the democrats of the county. He is a very fine man an educator of the highest type a splendid educator and has given universal satisfaction.
He has the endorsement of all of the teachers and principals of the graded schools of the county.
During our recent visit to Hutchison and in Reno county, we was pleased to note that Mr. Rowland has no opposition from any sources. We are pleased to see the people disposed to keep this great office out of politics. Politics should not enter into educational matters any more than in the judiciary.
Mr. Rowland has resided in Reno county many years, has during many years been closely identified with the people in an educational way and many of the people there have in the past been pupils of his, he has been welcome to their homes and is intimately acquainted with them. He is perhaps the best known man in the county, and we did not find a man or woman or child that knew him that did not like him.
It is no wonder that he has no position. He ought not to have any. When a man is so nearly unanimously the choice of all the people of a county for a position he should have the position as a matter of general public consent and acclaim. The schools of Kansas are among the most efficient anywhere in the nation and it is not hard to tell the reason when the Kansas schools have such me as Mr. Rowland at their head.

Mr. Hickman is engaged in the real estate business, is a good man, and is well qualified to perform the duties of the office for which he is a candidate.

here ever since that time. He is a fine lawyer, well liked by the officers with whom he comes in contact, respected by bench and bar and a favorite among them.

He is now asking for the first time that the people of the Eighth district elect him to represent them and the people of the state in the Legislature. If nominated he will be a strong candidate in November and if elected an able representative.

WICHITA—SEDGWICK COUNTY.
Politics in Sedgwick county are always interesting and very warm and exciting and this year it is even more so than usual if there be any difference between the contests in this campaign and past years. There are the usual number of aspirants for the various offices. (The sheriff's office is one of the big offices in this state the emolument connected with it is in the more thickly settled counties very good, the duties are exacting and the occupant of the office must be a man with a fair education a man with a cool head and possessing much courage both moral and physical. Also he should be a good business man and should be one who has been a success in life and who has prospered in his own business and finally one in whom the people who know him and have neighbored with and transacted business with him have respect and confidence both as to ability and courage and in his honesty of purpose in life and his morality. This being a day and age when the people justly and wisely look into the private life of those coming before them for their support at the polls for political preferment, and many a candidate has been relegated to the political scrap heap because he had led and the time of his candidacy was lending an immoral life—a Doctor Jackyl and Mr. Hyde—also they look into the question of whether a man, if married, is a kind and loyal husband and father, and this is as it should be. This year the women of Kansas for the first time in her history have the full exercise of suffrage equal to that which the men have enjoyed and while they are an unknown quantity as to how they will vote, to what extent they will allign themselves with the various political organizations, not they are an unknown quantity on the questions of the day and any candidate who can not pass muster and inspection before them is wasting his time being a candidate for any political office in Kansas.
The Business Manager of The Topeka Plaindealer has been in Wichita many times in the past ten or fifteen years and has been there several times during the present year. He is well and favorably acquainted with Mr. Gus Suhm, who is one of the long time residents of Wichita, having resided there since 1889, now more than twenty years. He has been in business there continuously during this time. He is a sharp business man, a man of fine appearance, a pleasing personality and at the age of life where he is absolutely dependable in any activity in which he may engage.
He is a life-long Democrat and though he has not before been a candidate for office has always taken an interest in politics and worked and contributed in a financial way to the success of the morv and have been a Democrat in defeat as well as in success.
People who know him best like him beat. They say he is morally and physically clean as well as notically. He is a man of great ability, a man of good education, has a fine and interesting family in which he is greatly devoted and was think, that he is the best man in the world. He is morally and physically conscious and in every way merits the vote of the people of Sweetuck county. We found many who thought he would succeed at the primary in August as he deserves to do.

practical experience with the duties of this office for two terms as first deputy, during Mr. McGill's incumbency, has thoroughly equipped him for that important position for which the voters of Salfwick county will elect him.
His familiarity with every function of the office and its every detail economical to the tax-payers make him a logical applicant for the position of county attorney.
NEWTON, HARVEY COUNTY,
KANARA
Mr. N. G. Perryman, a candidate for representative from the 65th Kansas Representative District.
Mr. Perryman, the present member of the lower house of the Kansas legislature is again a candidate. He thinks he is entitled to succeed himself and has arrived at that conclusion after many of the best people of the district requested him to be a candidate to succeed himself. The people pointed out to him his second, which they approved, he served the people of his district and state well and faithfully and they intend to not the stamp of "well done good and faithful servant" on "him when they took in August and in November.
He was on many of the important committees and chairman of some. At all times he was alert in the interest of the people; was a constant and regular daily attendant at all the committee meetings; was on several joint committees and conferences committees and in the committee room and on the floor of the house always working and fighting for the people and the interests of the state as well as of his own district. The roll call of the house shows that his vote was recorded on the right side of the important measures and that he was a faithful and competent representative. These facts are known by the people and they intend that he shall again represent them on the floor of the house when the legislature again meets in Topeka. This is as it should be. Men in office, when the record shows them competent and honest should be retained for a second term. It has been the custom for years with all parties to renominate those in office for a second term whose record justifies such action and as the record of Mr. Perrume is right it is no surprise that the people here in this district went after him, and drafted, him as their candidates for this cominik term. It is the handsome endorsement of his record and we congratulate him.

the past when there existed no chance
of Democratic success, and now that
the party is in power in the Nation
should be rewarded as one of the
faithful.

Mrs. Minnie Williams Dowser wishes you would help find her lost brother, mother and father, separated in Chicago, Ill., in 1891, taking the two youngest, Minnie and Charles and leaving them with a colored lady in Mendon, Michigan. She let a Mrs. Ruth Hyatt take Minnie, but was very unkind to her. Mrs. Fredrick Simmons of Vicksburg, Mich., had her one year and a half, but only left Mrs. R. Hyatt for worse and not for better. White people took the matter in hand and Minnie was adopted by law by a rich farmer, Mr. W. F. Frakes and was there until married to Mr. W. H.

it, and now it has made several of
the; stockholders wealthy. He was
one ‘of the organizers of this Surety
Company and gleaning from the as-
sets and liabilities, it can be seen

This was the largest gathering
since the organization of the Feder-

repreeentative body of colored women
that ever assembled under one roof
in the Sunflower Metropolis. They
are earnest and sincere in thelr work

It was an exhibition of the handi-
craft of Kansas’ fairest and best wo-

inatructora as to the best way to
care for the kiddies and stimulate an
interest in the things higher up.
They have builded wisely and well,
