DO RIGHT--KNOW THAT YOU ARE RIGHT; FEAR NOMAN; BUT RENDER JUSTICE TO ALL. COUNTYCLERK WILSON. OF REPUBLIC COUNTY. SLATED for STATE AUDITOR D. Y. Wilson, present county clerk of Republic county was born in Mercer County, Ill., Feb. 4th 1862. His father was Captain W. A. Wilson of Company K, 102 Ill.. The captain was a veteran in of the Civil War, he gave valiant services. He enlisted as second lieutenant and was promoted on account of valiant services and was soon recognized as captain of the regiment his father was at the battle of Resaca and Atlanta Georgia. His son, D. Y. Wilson, the present aspirant for state auditor came to Kansas in 1883 and located in Republic county where he has resided since. He immediately on account of his health began out of door vocation such as farming and stock-raising. In the summer of 1892 Young Wilson began his first effort and career in politics; he continued to support friends and the respective nominee of his party and did not ask for anything. In 1897 he became a prominent candidate for county clerk although he had strong opposition he was however successful and triumphed over his strong opponent in November of that year. Thus began his first official career. In 1899 he was renominated by acclamation and re-elected in November of that year by a greatly increased majority over the same opponent he had formerly contested for honors. His first majority over his opponent was 246, and on his second term he lead the Republican ticket and defeated his opponent by 876 majority. In speaking of D. Y. Wilson we want to say that his fore-parents as well as himself has always been true and tried friends of the colored people. In asking for the support of the colored delegates as well Mr. Wilson goes into the convention as their friends and if nominated at Wichita May 28 by that honorable body it is needless to say that he is the right man for the people and in the right place. It has been many years if at all that Mr. Wilson's part of the state had a representative place in the state ticket and the state offices: hence it is the general demand from his end the state to give them the anditor-ship which position we believe is fast coming his way. The auditors office here-to-fore has always been conceded to the County Clerks of this state whose ambition and D. Y. WILSON, NEXT AUDITOR OF STATE calling in the line of experience ranks above personal objections or comment. In order to make a good state auditor, as the writer understands the applicant must in all respects be conversant with books and the duties of such an office; hence the same can be said of Mr. Wilson who has practically held the office for four years. D. Y. Wilson was graduated from the Commercial College of Davenport Iowa, and a'so the Lincoln Business College Lincoln, Neb... He is married and has a loving wife and four sweet children to bless his home. Mr. Wilson resides at Bellville the county site of Republic County and he is an especial favorite among the citizens of his home and state. He is making a tour of the state for the present and it is most certain with his ability and dignified appearance that is more than likely to land the coveted position he seeks. COUNCILMAN WEBER WINS W. F. Weber present member of the City Councilman was re-elected by a safe majority last Wednesday o ver the determined and combined opposition. The reason for this is readily explained; Mr. Weber was the choice of the majority of the people of his ward not withstanding what people and certain papers said of him. His "henchman," Mr. Fred Jewell is a good vote catcher and an excellent organizer, and while he was successful under dire opposition, yet the Ledger is not unmindful of the good work done by "Henchman" Jewell. It is hoped while his majority was small for nomination may it be increased at the election. CHAS. ROBINSONS FINE HACK STAND ROWLEYS' DRUG CO. --- One of the most deserving gentlemen in the hack business is Mr. Chas. Robinson who keeps a fine team and also takes great pleasure in grooming his fine 'steeds.' Mr. Robinson is a first class accommodating gentlemen, and parties desiring his service will do well to call on him when in need of his services. Chas. Robinson has lived here many years and Topeka must and will take care of its old highly respected citizens. Young men who spend money should call for hackman No. 6 at Rowley Snow's Drug Store. It is Not All Over Yet. The defeat of Mr. Snattinger by the women of Topeka goes with little grace an comes with little respect in pure republican politics had Mr. Snattinger known that such a move was on foot to defeat him for the place its certian their efforts would have been in vain, There'll come a time in the neat future when men will unite on one object as well as the 'fair sex' it is high time that we should forget such small jealousy and turn from evil and do good. Mr. Snattinger made a good faithful and capable member of that body and his defeat will react upon his "fair" enimies. The election is not over yet. We are going if possible to make this paper please some of you! You may if wise, know that we have put on a new "garb" hence we are ready for business.

But for the great majority of people who inhabit the State it has already been a record breaker, no one who came here either by birth or mover's wag on, since 1875, has seen a worse or longer cold snap. And It May be remarked in passing that no one who is here now cares to see another one just like it or anything near like it." How many men see things in exaggerated way? How many women look upon their sex with a contempt. How many men can't help showing the silly side of their nature. How many women are victims of other women's spite.

These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them "poison." The definition of "narcotic" is: "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convulsions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.

Weber Gas & Gas/Gas Engine Co., Box 153 Kansas City, Mo The average longevity of man and of woman varies considerably in different places and at different times. From statistics carefully compiled, it appears that in England, for instance, the average age for males was 35.9 and for females 41.85 between the years 1838 and 1854; while between 1871 and 1880 that of males was 41.35 and that of females 44.62. In Massachusetts statistics taken from 1883 to 1887 show an average of 39.72 for males and 42.04 for females. These must be taken as the average of white people; for, to mention but one instance, the average of the colored males in Baltimore is not higher than 21.

The Queen of Love It is not known who wrote the following sketch on "Mother," but whoever he is, he tells well a noble truth: "Honor the dear old mother. Time has scattered snowfakes on her brow, plowed deep furrows on her cheeks, but is she not sweet and beautiful now. The lips are thin and shrunken, but those are the lips which have kissed a hot tear from the childish cheeks and they are the sweetest lips in the world. The eye is dim, yet it glows with the soft radiance that can never fade. Aye, yes, she is a dear old mother. "The sands of life are nearly run out, but, feeble as she is, she will go further and reach down lower for you than any other person upon earth. You cannot enter a prison whose bars will keep her out. You can never mount a scaffold too high for her to reach, that she may kiss and bless you, in evidence of her deathless love.

People buy them for the home table, instead of, as is the practice in this country, eating them exclusively in restaurants. They make a most palatable broth for invalids and convalescents, but ordinarily the legs are prepared by removing the skin, rolling them in flour, adding salt, pepper and butter, with a pinch of parsley, and cooking them gently in a frying pan or on the griddle. By Parisians it is considered that the frog is the best in the fall of the year, when it is fattest and most delicate. However, large numbers of the batrachians are caught in the spring, when they are said to be more easily captured. Toast thin slices of stale bread and spread with butter.

During the civil war Miss Ollie George married an Illinois soldier, Eugene Bradfield, while the latter's regiment was stationed in Knoxville. Soon afterwards Bradfield's regiment moved away and the wife was left behind. Husband and wife corresponded for two years, then the letters ceased and Mrs. Bradfield mourned her husband for dead. She applied for a pension recently and the department las found her husband living in Illinois, where he married a second time since the war. An order aws made to divide the pension between them in the future. The law of Massachusetts requires that the same man cannot serve the state as treasurer longer than five years in succession, and a law is now proposed putting the same limitation on the incumbency of the office of town treasurer. The suggestion comes from the exposure of the shortcomings of the treasurer of the town of Wellesley. The theory is that a man becomes careless, if not dishonest, by an indefinite occupancy of an office of this character. Lutheran Minister Tell of His Core After Suffering six Years. I suffered for six years with a very bad rupture and during all of the time I wore different kinds of trusses day and night, with the hope of effecting a cure, but they all failed—they only held the rupture in place. Upon the advice of Rev. F. Heiffer, of Sedalia, Mo., I consulted Dr. Ernest Henderson, the rupture specialist, 103 W. Ninth Street, Kansas City, Mo., who cured me in a few weeks without subjecting me to a dangerous and painful operation. This cure was complete and since then I have dispensed with my trusses without inconvenience. Anyone desiring more information will please apply to me, personally or by letter. I am; Kansas City, Mo., June 3, 1900. My Dear Doctor: I suffered for two weeks. I had bad I could scarcely retain it with the aid of a truss.

I pad your fee with p pressure, and still feel that I owe you a debt of gratitude which I hope to pay by inducing others to go to you. I will gladly write to anyone about my case.

"The probability is that Australia will soon again head the list of the world's gold producers," says Consul General Bray, at Melbourne, Australia, in a report dated January 11, which was made public at the state department Tuesday. The official figures of the gold production of the commonwealth for 1901, submitted by the consul general, show a total of 4,333,651 ounces, as compared with 4,211,360 ounces for 1900. West Australia and New Zealand showed increased yields, bringing the total nearly up to that of 1899, which was the banner year for gold in Australia. The production of petroleum in British India is confined to Burmah and Assam. The output in 1900 amounted to 380,000,000 gallons, of which 37,000,000 gallons came from Burmah. Though the production has largely increased of late years, yet it is still insufficient to meet the requirements of the Indian markets, 72,000,000 gallons having still to be imported through the United States and Russia.

RICH GOLD STRIKE A rich strike of gold was recently made in Laura Lee mine on Mineral Hill, near Cripple Creek, Col., the gold being sprinkled through the rock. The strike is very rich, assaying as high as 2,000 ounces to the ton. The Laura Lee mine is on Mineral Hill, and near it, on the same hill, is the property of the Mineral Point Gold Mining Co., which is owned principally by Kansas City people. The new strike greatly helps the property of this company, and it shows it to be in the heart of a area rich in gold. The development of the property, which is going forward, has already brought to view paying ore in the Copperhead mine. Since the new strike mining property values on Mineral Hill have taken a sharp tendency upward. The Mineral Point people have contended all along that their property was in a rich district, and this latest strike shows that their faith in the future of Mineral Hill property has been fully justified. The Mineral Point Gold Mining Co. is represented in Kansas City, Mo., by C. B. Rhodes & Co., fourth floor of the Heist Building, Eighth and Main streets. This firm has been very successful in placing the stock of the company, the investors in which now have a prospect of soon realizing handsome profits. It is claimed that since Saturday afternoon, March 1, $5,000,000 worth of automobiles have been sold by the dealers who have the machines on exhibition at the automobile show, in Chicago.

The house committee on coinage, weights and measures is securing some very interesting testimony on the subject of the metric system of weights and measures, nearly all of which favors the adoption of the system by the United States. Senator McMillan, of Michigan, has introduced a bill making the use of the metric system by the government, except in the measurement of land, compulsory. Among those heard by the house committee on the subject was J. A. Brashear, of Pittsburg, a manufacturer of fine instruments of precision. While he was making an argument in favor of the metric system he was interrupted by Representative Cushman, of Washington state, who asked: "Can you whittle down the little end of nothing to a fine point enough to punch out the pits of a mouse hair and measure the cavity?" "Oh, that is coarse work!" And then followed a roar of laughter. Representative Hill moved that Mr. Cushman be authorized to examine the witness. "Excuse me, please," said Mr. Cushman, and everybody laughed again. Mr. Bashear said that his company had just received a $10,000 order from England for an instrument that would measure the 1,500,000 part of an inch. "That's about as far as human capacity can go," said the witness.—Philadelphia Press.

Serve very hot. Put on platter, butter well and garnish with parsley. The Value of Good Roads. Good roads, like good streets, make Labitation along them most desirable.

It begins its new career mentally weak, but loving care and attention will strengthen its brain, and in the future we may look forward to creatures grandly and beautifully made, of great size and intelligence, "the cat," says Mr. Wain, "will then have had given to it a power which man has not conceived possible—the power to reproduce its remarkable among the wild animals of its own kind and through them gradually into all savage animals.

Hugo Raussendorff, who owns one of the finest private art galleries in Berlin, celebrated his 70th birthday a few weeks ago, and took this occasion to place at the disposal of the Academy of Arts a sum of money, the interest on which—1,500 marks—is to be bestowed annually on some talented student. The Emporia Gazette says that the story printed that Will White is in a serious condition is a mistake. The silver coins of Hawaii are being retired as fast as they are received by the federal and territorial officials in the course of their public business. These coins were all minted in 1882. They amount to $1,000,000, of which sum about $900,000 is still in circulation. "Before we were married," she sobbed, "you told me you were well off." "So I was," he rejoined brutally, "only I didn't realize it." Then he dodged, and the smelling salts came to a pause amid the costly ornaments on the mantlepiece.—Judy. A machine has just been installed in the pension office at Washington that will "lick" and seal 25,000 official envelopes a day. Previously the work was done by hand. H. C. Pride, who lives at Durant, has been lodged in the federal jail at Atoka on a charge of shooting his wife. Pride and his wife separated a month ago after living together ten years. It is alleged that while intoxicated Wednesday morning he bought a pistol and vent to the home of his wife, called her to the door and began shooting at her. She is thought to be mortally wounded. When arrested, Pride was sober, but covered with blood. He wildly protested his innocence and shows signs of insanity. "Have you got anything that will cure rheumatism?" inquired the customer. "Why—er," said the druggist, limping along behind the counter toward the medicine shelves, "we have several—er—remedies that are highly—er—recommended for rheumatism"—Chicago Tribune. Queen Anne of England was so refaced from her love of brandy that her not too respectful subjects called her "Brandy Nan." Are you riding a free horse to death, without properly feeding and watering him? Ever notice how people ruo their hands when they haven't enough money to pay a bill? Prof. Thomas J. See, the astronomer in charge of the great equatorial of the United States naval observatory, has been elected to membership in the Deutsche Mathematiker-Vereinigung, and to the Societe Mathematique de France, two leading European societies of mathematics. Some people think they are entitled to a lot of praise for the things they don't do. The Lawyer—You say that you were walking behind the woman, could not distinguish her figure because of the cape she wore, saw nothing of her face, and yet knew that she was a very pretty woman. How do you account for that? The Witness—Well, I could see the faces of the men coming toward me—Life. Housekeeper—I will be very cheap next summer, won't it? Ice Man—Well, I don't know, mum. You see, we've got a good deal of dear ice left over from the year before, and we'll have to sell that first, because it might spoil, you know, and I'm afraid by the time the old stock is gone the cheap ice will all be melted.—N. Y. Weekly. The report of the secretary of the state board of health shows that there were 421 smallpox cases in the state during the month of February and not a single death from that disease. The cases by counties and cities follow: Anderson, 9; Beloit, 17; Chataquua, 52; Cherokee, 7; Crawford, 29; Cloud, 13; Coffeyville, 6; Decatur, 30; Dickinson, 20; Ellsworth, 6; Girard, 1; Harper, 5; Hanover, 8; Holton, 7; Iola, 14; Industry, 3; Kingman, 1; Mitchell, 5; McPherson, 2; Mitchell, 5; Osborne, 2; Osawatomle, 2; Phillips, 24; Rawins, 8; Roville, 18; Saline, 15; Salina, 2; Stafford, 5; Sumner, 26; Topeka, 8; Thomas, 2; Washington, 19; Wichita, 1; Winfield, 11. The residence of Henry Shopcott, postmaster at Riverdale, Kas., was broken into Thursday night and $75 worth of stamps which he kept there as a reserve supply were stolen. Prof. Wm. A. Henry, dean of the College of Agriculture and director of the United States agricultural station at the University of Wisconsin, where he holds the chair of agriculture, has accepted a position in the faculty of the university of California as a lecturer during the coming summer session. When we have a great deal to do we usually compromise by doing nothing. Prof. G. W. Woodward, of Knoxville, Tenn., has made discoveries that he claims will solve the problem confronting Marconi. He believes that messages can be sent through the earth by utilizing the electric strata already existing and attuning instruments to these resistances. Eleanor—Well, Edgar, perhaps you would be wiser not to try—Detroit Free Press.
