They treat you very nicely and want your trade. DANIEL E. BOONE. Daniel E. Boone, whose picture is presented with this article, and who for two years has held the responsible position of treasurer of this great county, is a descendant of the Boones of Kentucky. His people were of that sturdy race that blazed through the forests and marked out the paths across the plains— [Name] Hon. Dan E. Boone, Sedgwick County's Treasurer the advance agents of civilization. True to the instincts of his forefathers, in his early manhood he set out for the frontier in quest of the place that should meet his ideal as a proper spot for a home. At that time—twenty-eight years ago—there was plenty of land in the great west to choose from, but young Boone turned his eyes toward Kansas, and the selection of a horse stead of fine soil near what is now the town of Colwich was only another evidence of good judgement. He is still the owner of that quarter, showing that he possesses the desirable element of stability. With it as nucleus, he has gathered together many broad acres of fine Kansas land, and is regarded as a success ful farmer. In starting life for himself Mr. Boone had one business aim and ambition, and that was to be a successful farmer. To gain that end he bent every energy of his youth. He toiled early and late, encountering all, the hardships and difficulties known to the Kansas farmer, but successfully overcoming them all, until now in early middle age, with a faint tinge of gray working into the edges of the hair, and his own boy working the farm, Mr. Boone has a right to the title he coveted, earned, and of which he is now justly proud—one of Kansas' most successful farmers. Three years ago his neighbors and acquaintances put him forward as the man to make the county a proper treasurer. He was not a politician, an office seeker or a place hunter, but merely a successful farmer and a good fellow. He was elected. He brought to the office the same careful, prudent, executive ability that gave him success in his private life, and he has made the county one of the best treasurers it has ever had. Not only is the county's funds, down to the very last nickel, safe in his hands, but every man in the county knows they are safe. He has surrounded himself with a trust worthy and competent force of assistants, but none of them get to the office earlier in the morning, stay later at night or attend to business more regularly than does Mr. Boone himself. It has long been the custom in this county when an officer has been satisfactory in the discharge of his duty, to give him a second term. To deny Mr. Boone a re election would be to say he was not satisfactory, which would be placing the county in a false position, and it is not likely that such a condition will arise at this time, for Mr. Boone will without question be re-elected. In the discharge of his duties he has treated all patrons of the office alike, regardless of politics, race or color in the kindest manner and will continue to do so. He is a man who is personally financially responsible for an amount sufficiently large to recommend him as county treasurer. All these points should be taken into consideration this fall. JEW AND NEGRO. The New York Sun prints the following dispatch: ROME, Sept. 23.—The Tribune prints a letter from the Roumanian Prince Ghika on Secretary Hay's note to the powers in regard to the treatment of Jews in that country, Prince Ghika says, "Supposing that Europe accepts Mr. Hay's interference and consents to act in behalf oo the Roumanian Jews, what will Mr. Hay say if Roumania requests the Powers to intervene and stop the persecution of Negroes in the United States and demand explanations in regard to the treatment of Filipino prisoners?" What could Secretary Hay say? Nothing. He can ask the Powers to interfere in behalf of the persecuted Jews of Roumania but he dare not protest again the persecution of Afro-Americans. HENRY SCHAD It was in the historic old town of Richmond, Virginia, that Henry Schad, Republican nominee for sheriff, first saw the light. While all about them were the hosts of rebeldom, his parents clung tenaciously to the Union, and Henry was early taught love for the flag and at the age of 16 years made his escape through the rebel lines and enlisted in Fox's 300, First New Jersey Cavalry, and was in every battle from the time Grant took command of the army of the Potomac until the close of the war. His regiment was under Sheridan where the fighting was good and plenty, and the riding good and rough. No man but would be proud of such a record. He came to Wichita in 1886 and opened up in the harness business, his fortune, like Wichita's, varying. At one time he enjoyed a very large trade, employing much skilled labor, and any workman will tell you that he always paid the highest wages of any man in town. The men who have worked for Henry Schad are all his friends. He continued in the harness business business until 1899 when he was elected marshal of the city court. That office requires the same abilities as the office of sheriff. The duties are largely similar. Mr. Schad performed his duties so well that two years la- WICHITA, KANSAS, OCT 11, 1902. ter he was re-elected by a largely increased majority. There is abso- M. B. Hon. Henry Sshad Sedgwick County's Next Sheriff lutely no complaint coming from the way he discharged his duties as marshal. There is no good reason to believe that he will not make equally as efficient a sheriff. No man is better prepared for the office than he.. It requires a man of peculiar qualifications to fill this place. It will be a serious thing for the people to make a mistake in the matter of sheriff. It will be better to take a man that has been tried than for to take any chances. Mr. Schad was once before a candidate for sheriff. At the time of the "Tiger Bill" war, when the Republican party was badly demoralized, and wlth 900 majority to overcome, he was the Republican nominee, as against Rufus Cone, one of the shrewdest politicians, strongest men and best officers ever elected to office by the opposition in this county, and Henry was defeated by only forty votes. This gives a general idea of his ability to hustle, and of the friends he must have among the people of Sedgwick county irrespective of party. He took his defeat gracefully and won many friends thereby. His honesty and integrity, his experience and qualifications of fitness, all have added to his strength, and his friends this year are more anxious than ever before to see Henry elected sheriff, and there is little question but what he will be one of the leaders of the Republican ticket when the voters are counted this fall. REGISTER TO-DAY!! A HEROIC DEED. The following clipping taken from a daily paper (white) of Pittsburg, Pa., demonstrates what we have so often claimed through the columns of the Reformer, in that the Negro, if given a show, can compete with other races in the business world. On this eventful day we are informed that there were two white companies two squares away from the fire yet this colored company was the first to arrive at the fire and commend itself in such a heroic manner as to merit the plaudits of the entire city. Says the exchange; "When the formation of a colcred fire company was first talked about in this city, all sorts of dire predictions were made as to the fitness and ability of colored men to become efficient fire fighters. Objection was also made to the locat on of the company in a number of places, but all that is now ancient history, for in the comparatively few years that Chemichal company number 1 has been composed of colored men, the gentlemanly deportment of the men, the efficiency they have displayed and the good results they have achieved have established them in confidence and respect not only of the city officials, but the general public as well. On a number of occasions individual members of the company have displayed great courage in the discharge of their duty. At the recent fire at the number 144 Sixth street Acting Leutenant Lanzle O. Phillips rescued the wife and servant of Mr. R. E.Osthof, at imminent peril of his own life, and in recognition of his brave act has received from that gentleman a letter of thanks and a very substantial token of his esteem. There is just as much sand in a colored man, other things being equal, as there is in anyone, but there is not the same appreciation of it by the public; but some day that, too, will be ancient history"—From the Richmond Reformer. Have you Registered in 1902? O. G. Eckstein, Republican nominee for county attorney, was born in Hanover, Germany, May 12, '64, and came to this country with his parents in 1869. When but fourteen years of age his father died, leaving him the oldest of six children. He was given a position under Carl Schurz, the Secretary of Interior, and was the main support of the family. He went to night school and by hard work soon obtained a promotion to a first class clerkship when he was but seventeen years of age, he being the youngest clerk in the United States employ at that time. He attended law lectures at night and was graduated with first honors from the Columbian University law school and afterwards graduated from the law department of Georgetown, University at Washington, D. C. While in the pension Bureau at Washington he espoused the cause of the old soldiers and wrote a work on pensions, published by Johnson & Co., of Philadelphia, when he was but twenty years of age. He supported the theory that a pension is an obligation under contract and not a gratuity, as held by the government. He resigned his position in 1887 to come to Wichita, where he has continued to practice his profession. He has served as treasurer for the city of Wichita, and was elected to the legislature of 1895, where he made a gallant fight for the location of a state normal school at Wichita, and came within a few votes of securing it. He was the author and successful advocate of the law known as the Eckstein bribery law, aimed against corrupt officials and legislators. He is one of the best and most popular lawyers in the county; a man of ability not only as a lawyer but as an orator. He has a splendid legal practice and stands high in his profession. He has always been honorable and reliable as a public and will make the county an honest and fearless prosecutor. Mr. Eckstein is also a leading worker in the literary field and is one of Wichita's most enthusiastic Chautauqua workers. He with his charming wife, who was for many years one of the leading teachers of Wichita and was principal of the Kellogg school, belonging to the Alma Circle. He has written many papers and delivered many able addresses in this field on various sub- M. H. Hon. O. G. Eckstien, Will Be Elected County Attorney On Nov. 4th. 1902 jects, and last year was on the Win field Chataququa Assembly program. He has a commanding voice and a magnificent presence, and is a forcible speaker, his. Shakespearian lecture and reading being probably his best. He affiliates with the Lutheran church. Mr. Eckstein made a noble race two years age against Mr. Conly, and was defeated by only eighty votes. There is no question about his election this year, and we prophesy that he wil make as able a prosecuting attorney as Sedgwick county ever had. JOHN M. CHAIN. The office of county cierk is the most complicated and at the same time important of any county office. It is in a large measure a check on the other offices and it is able through good management to save the tax payers more money, or through mis-management cost them more than any other office in the county and a large majority of the people have no conception of the detailed work, as it requires a year to once complete the rotine work It has been Sikgwick county's good fortune to have had a number of exceptionally good county Sclerks but none have better, more careful of the tax payers' interest, or more painstaking in the discharge of the duties of the office than has the present incumbent, John M. Chain John M. Chain has held several important clerical positions in this county, and his reputation for hom- esty, hard work and close application to his duties were such that he was offered a position as deputy in the couney clerk's office and three years ago the people elected him cyunty clerk by a handsom HON. John M. Chain, Sedgwick County's Competent County Clerk. HON. John M. Chain, Sedgwick County's Competent County Clerk. majority. He has proven to them time and again that they made no mistake in doing so. His watchful care and experience has saved the tax payers many dollars. His know ledge has saved many costly mis takes. In the matter of state tax alone he has saved Sedgwick county more than twice the amount of his salary. The proof of this saving can be seen by any one by going to the county clerk's office. In the discharge of his duty he has known no politics. No matter whether rich or poor, whether Populist, Republican or Democrat all have received the same treatment at I is hands he has been in the official life as he is in hism peonal life, whole souled. No night was ever too dark or road too long for John Ceain when a friend needed a favor. No matter whether that friend was white or black or any color, or political faith, and that is the reason he numbers his friends by hundreds among all parties, and just so sure as election day rolls round John M. Chain will be reeled by a splendid majority. W. L. APPLING. W. L. Appling, the old soldier candidate for Register of Deeds was born and raised in Logan county, Kentucky. He has been a resident of Sedgwick county since 1884, residing first in Minneha township, the moving to Wicbita township where he has farmed for a number of years. He has held several township offices, but never aspired to any other county office than that of register of deeds, which has long been regarded in this county as the old soldier's office, and which Mr. Appling is perfectly competent to fill from the old soldier as well as from another standpoint. When it was suggested that the five old soldier candidates for register of deeds leave the matter to the endorsement of the Old Soldiers' Republican club, Mr. Appling made a canvas of the county and proved his hustling qualities as well as his standing with his old comrades, by getting a majority of all the votes cast on the first ballot, although some of his opponents were among the best known men in the county. With this endorsement Mr. Applin went into the country again and secured enough delegates to give the Republican nomination over strong opposition. He is ow engaged in making a third canvas—this time before the people—and na THE SEARCHLIGHT. W. N. MILLER, Editor. Entered at the Post Office at Wiehita, Kansas, as Second-Class Mail Matter.

There are some people who do not think the old soldier is entitled to any special privileges in politics or elsewhere, but that kind of people are not numerous in this country. While boys of his age were at school and at colleges preparing to push themselves along to personal success in this country, Appling M. B. HON. W. L. Appling, Our Next Register of Deeds and his comrades were in the field enduring every hardship and privation fighting that these men have a country left in which to succeed. When a mere boy W. L. Appling cressed from Kentucky into Missouri and enlisted in Co. A, 11th Missouri Infantry, and for four years and nearly eight months he followed the old flag and helped to keep it flying. He got into the fighting in the beginning of the war, and had plenty of it all the way through. He was at the battles of Frederickstown, Island No. 10, New Madrid, Fort Pillow, in both battles of Corinth, at Iuka and Tupelo. In the fight at Farmington, Mississippi, he was slightly wounded. He was in the Vicksburg campaign from beginning to end, at Raymond, at Jackson, and in the 44 days' siege of Vicksburg. In one assault here one-half of his company was killed. He was in the battle of Nashville the siege of Old Spanish Fort, and many other battles and skirmishes. Wherever the 11th Missouri went, he went, never lagging behind, ever doing his duty- He fought a good fight. He voted for Abraham Lincoln and has kept his faith. Why, then, should not he enter into his reward? We believe that this people enjoying the privildges and prosperity of this great county, will take this old veteran, against whom the only charge we have ever heard uttered is that he is poor, and will even up with him for those four years of his boyhood so generously given that the life of this nation might be preserved, by giving him a term in the office of register of deeds.

Whereas the Almighty has seen fit to call from our midst one of our beloved sisters and whereas as we realize it is a bitter and sad ordeal for the anes who are left behind, yet we realize that God knoweth best, we should feel that God giveth and God taketh and blessed be the name of the Lord. Therefore be it resolved that the Household of Ruth No. 612 of G. U. O. of O. F, in the death of sister Martha Helm, extends to the bereaved family its concolence and impresses them to leave it all with Jesus, He knoweth best.
