Carnett Man Sure to Be Democratic Nominee for Congress in Second District...Gossip About Business, and Politics.
The manager of the Topeka Plain-dealer has just closed a thorough trip over the entire Second cohorsional district of Kansas. He visited every county seat in the district, practically all of the other cities and towns and covered in an auto most of the rural portions of the district. He has been in the political game for many years, has attended many county, state and national conventions, and meetings of the party council, and is to some degree a safe judge of conditions.
We found in all parts of the district, that Hon. N. L. Bowman has a splendid following and that this following is growing each day. The other candidates who started out early, strong are losing ground and the strength of all going to Mr. Bowman. Not a day passes without some additional supporter John of the Bowman ranks, while all who are for them are staying steadfastly with the ship and rejoicing at the increase
1930
is the number of passengers who are taking passage with Mr. Bowman in the BOWMAN FOR CONGRESS SHIP. There are competent sailors and seamen in charge, while the Captain is safe, competent and sound and the ship with all on board will arrive safely on the 4th day of August and Noah L. Bowman will be the Democratic nominee, for Congress in the Second district. The great majority of the people practically all of them believe that Mr. Bowman it to be their next congressman.
Everywhere we were we heard only words of praise for him as a man and citizen. He surely has during his residence there endured himself to the hearts of the people. His life, public and private has been ideal. No scandal ever connected with his name. In every walk of life as a man, citizen, business man, in his profession, as an officer and husband and father he is the best of the best; truth and moral in thought and action, and we are pleased to find people his opponents in politics, his competitors in business as well as those who are supporting him all concede him to be the highest type of man. Citizen, lawyer and officer while all who know agree that his home life is ideal.
There remains two weeks and two arose for damn good from the next day in primary day. If the report of the opposition continues in trouble during that time in prosecution to the manner in which it has melted away in the past two weeks, the vote that the opposition will be a mere normal vote and the majority of Mr. Bowman over the entire field simply will be marginal. The people of the Second district are intelligent, they have given the claims of the various candidates careful consideration, have invested valuable records in whatever positions and public trust they have served. They have cautiously scrutinized Mr. Bowman's record in the legislature. His administration as county attorney Anderson county, his services as municipal officer and ability as a civil engineer, together with his ability, standing and success as a lawyer. The verdict, of the people is that examination of his record, after having taken Ex-Rave photos of even the most remote places of it, that he is the candidate, all candidates, the citizen of cities among those aspiring to the state to be given the nomination. He Democrat that can win in Indiana. If the voters of the district do not let this chance they improve this opportunity. If Bowman will be the supporter from that district he and what a grand Democrat and representative of the
state of Kansas and her people he will be.
Why not have a grand man like him as representative from Gloriosa Old Kansas? Is not Kansas one of the greatest states in the entire statehood of states, is not Kansas worthy of a great man to represent her in the halls of the National Congress, are not the people of the state, and the Second district proud of Kansas, and have you state and civic pride, do you want a mash as your representative who corresponds and ranks up with the state, whose soul is wrapped up in Kansas and her people and who would rather live in Kansas than anywhere else on earth. Such a man is Mr. Bowman. Kansas is a great state, the Second district is a great district and Bowman is a great man, a stateman and jurist, worthy of the support and confidence of the people is any community in the state. If the Second district sends him to Washington they will be represented and not misrepresented. Mr. Bowman is a man to whom they can talk or write to any time and receive his careful attention and consideration. He will represent the people and be as was Abraham Lincoln, a man of the people and for the people.
PAOLA MIAMA COUNTY
Hon Alphus Land is a candidate for judge of the district court—Tenth judicial district, comprising Miami and Johnson counties.
Mr. Lane came to Kansas in 1757 and located in Maysland county, where he has resided ever since. He was guarded on a farm in that county and knew the hardships that farmers of that portion of the West endured in those days. He has been engaged in the practice of law in that section for over twenty-five years. When his father came to Kansas the subject of this sketch was just holding at his hands, to say the language in a recent speech. In those days corn was planted with a heavy hoe; cultivators and riding plows were not known and the old fashioned plows had not yet made their appearance in that section of the country. Farming then was indeed hard work, prices low and compensation meagre, but this boy with the good, rich, blood, that was in his arteries was all right, he was equal to the work which came, and he bravely met every condition and difficulty and conquered.
As a lawyer for a quarter of a century in glorious Kansas he displays the same industry, the same ability to work and accomplish things as he did in the days of his youth. His success has been good. He is a fine lawyer, a safe counselor and a great speaker and orator. The representative of The Plaindealer has visited that part of he state recently, has just returned from there and was there for the purpose of viewing the political situation.
PETER H.
HON. ALPHEUS LANE
Like all sections of Kansas, politics are at fever heat and the nearer the eventual day--August 4 the hotter the situation will grow. In the excitement and the heat of the battle we find Mr. Lane looming up as the most likely nominee, for judge.
Under the new law politics does not now enter the contest, politics by the non-partisan judicial election law enacted by the legislature of Kansas at its last session has been, as it should be, eliminated and the candidates are running on their standing as citizens and their ability as lawyers. Mr. Lane is right above these living a good citizen, good neighbor, industrious and enterprising and a cannibal and honest lawyer. He's a sane, safe man for the judiciary.
ANDERSON COUNTY.
Garnett, Kansas.
The National Bank of Commerce
In Garnett, Kansas, the county seat
TOPEKA, KANSAS. FRIDAY. MORNING JULY 17, 1914.
of Anderson county, and one of the modern and prosperous cities of the southeast part of the state, there are many fine institutions of a financial and a commercial nature. Among these is the National Bank of Commerce. This is the only national bank in Anderson county. This is a growing section of the state and Anderson county has lately been making big gains in a commercial way as well as in population. This bank has kept pace with the growth of the community and is now one of the biggest banks in the state.
Mr. George W. Hunley is the cochair of this institution and it is largely under his management that the bank has grown to its present popularity and standing. He is, a very shrewd business man, a great financier and one of the big bankers, of the country. Everyone down in that section of the state know. George Hunley and all who know him, like him and have confidence in him as a man and in his ability as a financier and business man. The people, there are willing to trust their money in an institution with a man of his caliber as its cashier.
This bank does not have any city or county money on deposit and is not a United States depository. It does not have to depend on "pull" to get deposits of this kind to keep it self-up, but its deposits are from individuals, the many farmers in that locality and industrial and manufacturing concerns. The fact that it can make such a showing of deposits, and they all from the people, certainly is a great compliment for Mr. Hunley. He must be well thought of or this bank could not prepare out its deposits, being packed by money from the country stable or nation. A bank like this is the place for the people having money to bank to do their barking business.
J. C. Moone for Register of Deeds.
Mr. J. C. Moon of Garnett, Anderson county, Kansas, is a candidate for re-election as Register of Deeds on the Democratic ticket.
Mr. Moon is now serving his first term in the office and has made good. He attends strictly to the duties of the office, is careful and competent. The affairs of the office are conducted in the most up-to-date business way and with as much speed as is consistent with accuracy. Everything in that office must be correct-chemical errors there, cannot be tolerated and the incumbent of the office and his employees must be competent and careful.
Mr. Moon realizes all these facts and has given his constituents an accurate administration of the affairs of the office, the kind of work all coming to the office and runs the office in the most economical manner.
Mr. Moon was elected in 1912 by a nice vote, and in the coming primary, as he has been making new friends each day and retaining his old ones, he stands a good show of again being nominated. He and his friends feel that the custom to give to a man a second term when he has made good in the first should be carried out in the case of Moon. This courtesy should be shown. If he had done well in the first term he should have the usual second term given to him as a worthy officer.
Mr. Moon has always been a good Democrat, loyal to the party and its candidate and has given largely of his time, ability and money toafds its success.
The State Board of Control appointed by Governor Hodges and the superintendent of the institution, Dr. Carmichael, have accomplished great things at the State Hospital in Osawatomie.
During the administration of the present Board of Control, composed of Hon. W. E. Brooks, Fort Scott, chairman; Hon. Stance Mewers, Leavenworth, treasurer; H. C. Bowman, Newton and Senator Howe, secretary. They have accomplished much as may be seen by a glance at the following facts:
The building of a large dam, 8x170 along the Marias du Cygne river, at cost of $150.
A commissary and cold storage building 45x175- two stories, and beyond all doubt, it is the finest plant in the state and cost about $25,000. Remodeled the dairy barn and installed modern equipment. Tiled and remodeled the administration building; main, kitchen and employee's dining rooms. Made extensive improvements on the grounds.
Eastocked the farm with work animals.
Renovated and replanted old orchards and vineyards, and put out 6000 small fruit trees.
Some extensive repertory.
This is an immense amount of work to be accomplished in so short a time and speaks volumes for Gov. Geo. H. Hedges, the Board of Control and the superintendent, Dr. Carmichael. The latter named gentleman is bored of the whole works and is about the busiest man in all Kansas seven days a week, and besides burns an enormous amount of midnight oil in his efforts to keep the abode of the state's performers on a high plane of efficiency and make it the model of all institutions of its kind. He is artist of all times; works with brain and heads and is a man who is not excelsed in any place you put him. Dr. Carmichael for this important position is thanked to Dr. Carmichael and his trumaine and successful medical treatment.
It is interesting to note that this institution and those in charge of it is
but end of the many of the Kansas State institutions now flourishing as never before, and why is this? The answer is that the state house. (Gov. Goe- H/ Hodge, the present Governor of Kansas, is the answer. He was inaugurated Governor of this state in January 1913, and has therefore been the executive one year and six months. He stated in his inaugural address and in his various memoranda to the legislature of 1913 that the charitable and penal institutions of the state must be run and conducted; and under his administration must be, according to business principles, must be free from scandal and graft, all persons appointed to manage them and those appointed as assistants and attendants and all other capacities must be chosen for their service for the place and the services to be rendered and the labor performed and must be retained only so long as they were competent and faithful to their trust and meet satisfactory service in their setting to select men and women as the controlling force behind these institutions who would, as he believed, out and put in force throughout the entire state in all its conditions this high ideal. The condition of the State Hospital at Osawatomie is a sample and is evidence that the ambition or the Governor has been attained. He now, after a year and a half of his term, sees these institutions all economically and ably managed. He is a great visitor and has made many visits to each of said institutions, he has appeared when expected and when not expected, has personally inspected them, has made careful inquiry and research to ascertain the exact conditions and to see if in all departments, things were running as in such institutions they should. When he has observed anything in which improvement could be accomplished he has had the improvements made and has looked especially at things from the humane point of view. He will not tolerate brutal treatment of any of the inmates of any of these institutions, nor will he tolerate extravagance or graft, nor laxiness or incompetence.
Taking every feature into consideration the management of the charitable and penal institutions is now at the highest point of efficiency from a business - financial and humanitarian standpoint which has ever been reached, in Kansas by any administration. All praise to Governor Hughes, his Board of Control and able-Superintendents and their assistants.
The George R. Smith College, Sedalia, Mo., has recently added to its faculty., Prof. Jacob E. Jones, of Washington, D. C., who is a B. S., of the State College of Deleware and an A. B., of Howard University, and a teacher of some experience. Prof. Jones will have charge of the Normal Department of the institution, for which position he is specially fitted. The new principal of the Grammar Department is Miss Alda M. Johnson of Springfield, Mo., a graduate of the Normal department of Atlanta University. Miss Johnson has taught in Straight University, New Orleans and at Atlanta University, where she has also taken post graduate work along special lanes.

IS THIS RIGHT?
Sunday, July 6, 1915, was a memorable day in the history of Quindaro, Kansas. The occasion was the corner stone laying of one of the buildings of Western University, which had been destroyed by fire a few months previously. This building was known as Ward Hall, and it belonged to the great A. M. E. church and was named after one of its bishops. The news of its destruction brought sorrow to thousands of loyal Methodists and to the friends of the church and when a few months later a call was made from the big dignatories of the church to attend the corner stone laying of the new structure, thousands of Negroes responded. All the secret societies were present, numbers of other denominations also attended. Governor Hodges graced the occasion with his presence and made the noted remark in substance, that he had been in the midst of acres of wheat, acres of corn, but it was the first time he had been in acres of colored people. Speeches were made, prayers were offered, songs were sung and when financial aid was asked, hundreds upon hundreds of dollars were given which combined with the money that was obtained from all over the Methodist connection and the friends of education swelled the sum to thousands of dollars.
In process of time Ward Hall was rebuilt and Saturday, July 4, 1914 was set for its dedication. On that occasion more speeches were made, more prayers offered, more songs sung, more money given but there is a little history connected with the rebuilding that was not discussed. Of all the thousands of dollars donated by groves, not much, if any was paid to Negro mechanics. Not a Negro carpenter, masson, painter or decorator was permitted to work on the building. The writer being a man of some experience knows that there is more than one point of view to a subject and it may be that under the contract which the church committee agreed to, Negro mechanics were not allowed to earn their own money. If as it is said there are not sufficient Negro mechanics to build a building or that they are not competent, then there is a strong argument for industrial schools to turn out efficient workmen. Anyway it seems to be wrong.
The fact is that the big dignitaries of the great A. M. E. church, at least those in the middle west do not in evening. Wednesday he went out riding with his father. When asked if he was riding easily, answered, "sea" and leaved over in his father's arms and died.

THOUSANDS HEAR TUCKER
The Enemy of "John B." Addressed an Audience Which Overrooved the Airdome Last Night—Told of Oil Trust Power in the Politics of the Country.
From The Atchison Champion.
Henry H. Tucker, of Kansas City, Kansas, president of the Uncle Sam Oil Co., and Republican candidate for the nomination as United States senator, addressed an audience in the Airdome last night which completely taxed the capacity of the place. All seating space was taken and probably a hundred were compelled to stand and probably another hundred were turned away.
Mr. Tucker's appearance on the platform was greeted with applause which lasted for fully a minute. The sum and substance of his address was: "The People vs. the Standard Oil Company." Before him hung a large map showing the various oil interests of Kansas and Oklahoma and he proceeded to show by this what the Uncle Sam Oil company has done to protect the people against the powerful corporation. Mr. Tucker said it was his motto that the people should rule and he sincerely believed in every word of the motto. Mr. Tucker cold at the beginning of his speech that he made no presentation of being an orator, but proved by what he said that he was no sleeper. He spoke: "Is all except straightforward manner and judged by the applause he received a large majority of the audience was with him. W. B. Hare Provided."
W. P. Ham presided at the meeting last night. He introduced Representative Beckman, of Arkansas City, who paid a growing salary to the young foe of the oil trust. He said he was in, the fight for Tucker because he wanted to see the good old Republican party in Kansas placed where it used to be. He dwelt at length on the candidacy of Charles Curtis and declared that Curtis was backed in his candidacy by the Standard Oil company. He said that every representative of the Standard Oil company in Kansas was supporting the former senator. "How can we expect to win with Curtis as our candidate?" Beckman asked. When Stubbs defeated Curtis for the Republican nomination two years ago Curtis and his friends organised against the victor and by doing so brought about the election of Thompson, a Democrat. Can you believe that Mr. Stubbs and his friends will support Curtis if he wins the nomination this year? I was one of the darn fools who joined the opposition to Stubbs two years ago, but I have seen the error of my way and now I want to do what I can to rectify that wrong." Beckman's speech was of the real spell binding variety.
Arrived at 7:35.
Mr. Tucker did not arrive in Atchison until 7:35 o'clock last night. He was met at the depot by a number of prominent Republicans who escorted him to the Byram hotel, where thirty-minutes later he was greeted by the Atchison band. In a hack occupied by himself, Judge Gundy, W. P. Ham and Representative Beekman, he was escorted to the Airdome. The band led the way from the Byram to the place of meeting.
Many Women Present.
The audience which created Mr. Tucker last night was probably the most representative seen at a political gathering in Atchison in years. At least half of those present were women. All of the local candidates including Sheffield Insall, Progressive candidate for Congress, were there, and a reporter counted a number of ministers in the audience. It was an audience of at least 1,500 persons.
After the meeting at the Airdome
Mr. Tucker attended the regular
meeting of Earles at Eagle hall and
delivered an address which was well
received.

MAJORS' OXFORD HAIR OILS.
Every woman knows the tremendous difference in hair oil—differences in quality, in purity, in fineness—in the way they adhere to the scalp and in appearance on the hair. Your hair oil has always been a real problem. You will find the nearest approach to your idea of a perfect oil in Majora' Hair Oil.
Heretofore you have had difficulty in finding an oil of sufficient fineness that would adhere to your scalp. Have you not been obliged to sacrifice one advantage for the other?
Now, in Majora' Oxford Hair Oils, you have both a product of remarkable fineness, and at the same time one which adheres perfectly. Some oils, to gain adherent properties, contain injurious substances. OXFORD HAIR OIL is pure as the driven snow. It comes in paste and liquid. OXFORD HAIR OIL is boiled time after time to a degree of fineness that is most unusual. It is practically invisible on your hair, gives the true, natural glossy effect of real beauty. THE FINEST MATERIALS ARE USED, the greater proportion of which are imported. If leaving for the summer wouldn't you like a complexion cream with

Obituary.
Walter Joseph Ellington, son of Mr. and Mrs. Tyler Ellington, was born in Everest, Kansas 18 years ago. The history of his life must be brief.
Sunday evening he called his mother to the bed and told her to read the Bible for him; called his father in and said listen while she reads. After his mother read the Bible, he asked his father to pray, then said, "You wonder why I do this, I will tell you the truth about it. I want to go to church, but cannot, and something told me that I could have church right here. Now I will do the rest. All day Wednesday he hummed a song and patted his foot and seemed so happy.

WE STAND·CORRECTED.
Mr. Hugh T. Fisher, Popular Candidate for Judge Court of Topeka Sets us Right.
Regarding an article that appeared in our last week's issue, the scribe got his wires crossed on a few points and Mr. Hugh T. Fisher sets us right in the following letter:
"Editor Plaindealer! Your write-up in last week's paper was highly complimentary but misleading in some of its statements. I expect to be elected and want the people to vote for me but I would not want to get votes through misleading statements. "You stated that I was a graduate of Washburn. I never attended Washburn but am a graduate of the State University. During my last year I edited the 'Kansas Lawyer.' I am also a member of the Phi Delta Phi, an honorary legal fraternity which has chapters in most of the noted universities of the East and a few chapters in the best schools of the West.
"You also stated that my father served during the Civil War. My grandfather, Rev. H. D. Fisher, was chaplain of the Fifth Kansas, but my father at that time was not old enough to enlist.
"If you will kindly make these corrections I will appreciate it very much. As I stated before I do not want anything printed or anything said in regard to my candidacy that is misleadig, for I want my campaign for Judge of the Court of Topeka to be made strictly in accordance with the facts and I also want people to vote for me because thy believe I am qualified, competent and entitled to the place.
Very truly yours,
HUGH T. FISHER."
SHAWNEE COUNTY POLITICS
CHAS. W. BOWER.
Mr. Charles W. Bower, present Clerk of the Shawnee County District Court, is, as was expected, a candidate for re-nomination and re-election on the Republican ticket, subject to the primaries, August 4th.
Mr. Bower has been clerk of the District Court of Shawnee county for two years, having been nominated for the present and first term at the August primaries of 1912, and was elected in November following. Preceding his election he had been court reporter for the first division of the District Court for several years and as such was a deputy clerk of the court. This experience made him familiar with the workings of the court, with the procedure and with the duties of the clerk. He has no opposition for the nomination and will practically have none at the election, such persons as may be the nominees on other tickets merely running to keep up their party machinery and have candidates for the various positions.
The volume of business transacted in the District Court of this county, with its two divisions, all passes through the office of the clerk, and Mr. Bower is clerk for both divisions. The business is not only great as to the number of cases and other proceedings instituted, but great in importance. The duties of the clerk require careful and competent men. Mr. Bower, by reason of his experience, is the man for the place for the coming two years. He does not nor will not ask for a third term. He thinks two terms is enough, but thinks that if the people believe he has given satisfaction and as his employers (as the people are) are satisfied with his work they should favor him with the customary second term. He will thank them for such an honor and will ever be grateful for honors already conferred, and if re-elected will give them the same service in the future as in the part, striving at all times to improve.
We call attention of the voters to the fact that Mr. Bower is fair with the women and keeps several denies in his office. They are courteous to all and veryone having business there receives fair and kind treatment. We see no reason why he should not be re-elected by a big vote. We rather expect to see him lead the ticket.

Mr. O. K. Swayze candidate for county clerk or county clerk is too well known for The Plaindealer to attempt to give brief detail as to who and what he has served the taxpayers faithfully

LAWRENCE, KANSAS.
"On the Hike," a Two Act Comedy Drama Setting of Scenes, Between Kansas City and Topeka—Time, June 25, 1914, A. D.—Author, Anon.
ACT I.
Mesara Leo Walker, Richard Elliot, Alive Davis, Ernest Anderson and William Wright deciding on a pleasure trip caught a front door Pollman and arrived in Toneka in time to see the last performance of Sella-Flotos' wonderful circus. After seeing the circus and enjoying a lovely evening in the city, the five gentlemen departed about 2:00 on the show train, the guests of a Santa Fe brakeman. But the brakeman after leaving the city decided to collect a small fee from the said guests as a keep-sake.
So starting out with his lantern, he proceeded to round up his guests. This he found very hard to do owing to their persistence in eluding their hosts. But finally he managed to locate Elliot and Anderson under the monkey wagon, and Elliot being dressed in palm beach pants, shoes, tango tie and socks and panama hat soon became a mark for the greedy eved brakeman. After collecting his fee from these two, the brakeman then proceeded to try and solve a puzzle; that of finding the mysterious Alex Davis. But Mr. Davis with his ready brain had made friends with a lion and his cage and thus escaped owing to the brakeman's dread of the king of the forest.
The high salaried brakeman real
his match in trying to locate this
fading Walker and elusive Wright.
These gentilmen played, pet over
and get under with the said brakeman.
Using one of Silla-Flota's
problem wrews as their shield, fini-
cally qualifying positions as drivers of
this weapon; which happened to be
one under which Andersoan and Elliott had sought refuge. AOTH. At the Santa Fe depot, Laumermie Kabana. Sally Fletcher, train of wonderful and mysterious things is killed to promote Lawrence, so whirled through the city with a road and a cloud of dusts and smoke. Out of this cloud across the reeling Elliot, who had repelled the much famed act, "the loop the loop," on the depot platform. (He was the guest of Dr. Kenner and W. C. Brown of the Lawrence Pantatorium the next morning.) Wright, Walker and Davit being experts, who rivaled the brakeman for his job found it easy to depart from the luring circus train.
But Mr. Anderson owing to the speed of the train suddenly remembered that he had not seen his lady friend in Kansas City since school had closed (In Lawrence.) Therefore he had no trouble in performing the daring feat of keeping aboard the whirling circus train. Disasters of the two act comedy were:—Mr. Anderson's favorite lady friend has given him the cold shoulder. Why?
Mr. Elliot just left the pantatorium with a pair of neatly mended palm beach pants.' Not, carrying them on his arm though. From the actions of Mr. Anderson and said lady there bids fair to be another act.
