THE WICHITA SEARCHLIGHT
Part of the Next Officers of Sedgwick County.
They Can't Be Beat Vote for Them And You're Safe.
JAMES H. STEWART
State Senetor
The Reynblican County Con-
titution of Sedgwick County ma-
wises selection when it placed
the name of James H. Stewart
fore the people as candidate for
State Senator.
For twelve years a resident of
county, he has built up a na-
ces an energetic' progressive
business citizen.
His almost unerring foresight capability in municipal matters has drawn to him the confidence of the business circle of our city and its citizens. This year the people of Sedek county are interests in the upper adjustments of freight as—and it is very important—that the successful candidate could be a man who is not only informed on that subject the should like wise be a man is with the people in this latter and capable to push their interests in this direction in the处 Senator.
in the selection of Mr. Stewart
Republicans secured a mae
is well informed on this sub-
and one who has since 1901,
ug before he ever thought of
ing a candidat for any office)
is a prominent part iy every
put forth to give Wichita
er and petter freight rates.
Mr. Steward has a host of
ends and will be elected to the
state Senate py a large and ap-
pative majority.
No long talk is necessary to produce Mr. John W. Adams to the people of Sedgwick county. For more than nineteen years he has been a resident of our county and no man in the county is utter and more favorably known can he. During all this time he has been surely engaged in the practice law which has kept him promptly before the people. In selecting Mr. Adams for these tive the republican pasty to be congratulated in securingable a man for this place.
Mr. Adams is no stranger in the legislative halls of Kansas where he has successfully served two terms and has the distinction of securing the passage of every measure which he championed—which shows his popularity in the representative hall. His good work in the interest of his county has endeared him to the voters and he will be elector a large majority.
A. C. HUSEY
In 1977, Adolph C Husey came to Wichita from Leavenworth, an area where he had resided since 1857, and ever since 1877 he has been one of our most pro-operative citizens—and by strict
M. B.
Hon, John W Adams application to business he has built up a large business interests which have krpt pace with the growth of our city. In pushing his own interests, Mr. Husey has always found time and has always been willing to lend's helping hand to his neighbors ann fellow townmen and by his generousness has become near his constituency. As a member of the last legislature he acquitted himself in a most credible manner and will be re-elected this year by a very hondsome majority.
The Man Behind The Gun
County Chairman Boone
Judge of the District Court Among all the nominations mode by the republicans this year and which are to be submitted to the voters of this county on Nov. 3th, next, none is more appropriately and fittingly made than the unanimous selection of Judge Thomas C Wilson for the office of Judge of the District court.
Endowed with a thorough legal train, unprejudiced and fair minded, the republican party may well congratulate itself in chosing so imminently fitted candidate this office and the voters may well consider it an honor to cast their ballot for so honorable a man as Thomas C. Wilson. Born in New Jersey in 1861, he received his preparatory education at Pennington Seminary.
WICHITA, KANSAS, OCT 29 1904
New Jersey, where he was validictorian in the class of 1879. He graduated in the classical course of Wesleyan university, Conn. in the class of 1883, and on graduating was elected an honorary member of the inter-collegiate Phi Beta Kappa society. From there he went to the university of Penn sylvanio, graduating from the law department of that university in 1886, and winning the honor of being the Meredith prize man. In June 1886, Mr. Wi son was admitted to the bar in Philadelphia.
Judge Wilson came to Wichita in 1887, and formed a partnership with Geo. W. Clement, jr., Under Mayor Clement's administration, he was city attorney. He was elected probate judge in 1900 by a majority of 670, being the only man elected on the cou

W. R. Kessler
ty Republican tichet at that time His administration of the office of probate judge was so satisfactory to the people that in 1902 he was re-elected for the second term to the office of probate judge by a majority of 2,542, which majority was unprecedented ed in the history of Sedgwick county politics--Mr. Wilson carried the city of Wichita by a majority of 2,007.
January last he resigned the position of probate judge for the purpose of accepting an appointment by Governor Bailey as judge of the district court to succeed Judge Dale, whose term had expired at that time. While the public had full confidence in the ability and integrity of Judge Wilson to fill the office of judge of the district court, it is nn exaggeration to say that Judge Wilson has more than satisfied the highest expectations of his warmest friends and at the same time won the respect and admiration of those who for political reasons opposed him.
HENRY SCHAD For Sberiff
Henry Tchad, who has been sheriff of Sedgwick county for the past two years, has made a oecord that any officer in a similar position might well be proun Mr. Schad is a candidate for reelection on the Republican ticket and his strongest endorsement is the record the office has made for promptness and the despatch with which the various duties connected with it have been carried out.
Mr Schad has also collected more personal tax since he has been sheriff than any of his predecessors in recent years. The leading attorneys of the city, irrespective of party, heartily endorse the manner in the office has been conducted.
Henry Schad was born in Richmond, V, in 1846, and at the age of 16 he left the South and joined the army, becoming a member of the First New Jersey calvary. Since the age of 16 he has made his own way in the world He moved to Wichita 17 years ago and established a harness and saddlery business in the city, which he gave up when he qualified for the position which he now holds, Mr Schad did not enter the office as a novice, as he had experience in the position as city marshal, which in a measure already fitted him for the office.
GEQ. A. CLARK
Clerk of the District Court During the past two years Mr, Geo A Clask has had charge of the office of clerk of the district court and during that time he has given complete satisfaction to judge, attorneys and every one who has had business dealing in that office No man needs a better recommendation for re-election than that he has faithfully performed the puty already entrusted him He has had competent assistants and the work of the office has been kept up with accuracy and system
Mr Clark has resided in Sedgwick county since 1887, coming here from New York, where he was born in Schobarie county August 15, 1864. He is essentially a self made man, having worked his own way since the age of 13. Hepaid for his education by working on a farm and teaching

school In this way he was enabled to take a partion of four yhar's course in the Univerrity of N Y. Wheu oe come to Sedgwick county he settled in Valley Center He taught in the county school at that place and has been principal rf the school in Mt. Hope and Valley Center. For 5 years he held the position of Postmaster at Valley Center and gave up that office for the pres-one That duaing the past 2 years the office of clerk of the distfiot has been conducted in a manner
Good Men
that has elicited no unfavorable criticism is a record of which any man might be proud, and also a record that deserves the support of all in the coming election
W. L Sbalding who has been register of deeds foa the last two years and who is a candidate for re-election on the Republican ticket, has been a resident of Sedgwick county for the past twenty-three years, having come to Minneha township from La Selle county, Illinois, in the early spring of 1881
Universsl satisfaction with the manner in which his office has been conducted during the past two years is expressed by every one having any business relation wite the office or being in a position to judge. Mr. Appling may be justly proud of the redomendations that are accorded him on every side.
He was born in Kentucky in 1884, and while a young man entered the U. S. army in which he served for four year and seven months. During this time he was in twenty three hard fought battles as a member og Co. A. 11th Missouri Infautry. He was wounded in Farmimgton Mississippi.
After coming to Kansas Mr. Appling served as township trustee for d number of years and also as justice of the peace. From Minneba township he moved to Wichita township, where he has been a prominent figure, having beeu on the school board for the past ten years and also a justice of the peace. He is president of the Old Soldier's Republican club and has been an active Republican for many years.
E. Webb,candidate for county treasurer, was a resident of Seedwick Co. before grasshopper year, and since that time his interests and the county's interests have been governed by the same influences. He is a West Virginia by birth, moving in Gypsum township in 1871, thirty-three years ago.
As farmer and stockman he proved himself successful and his neighbors elected him county commissioner in 1894-96. His popularity as an official may be judged from the fact that he was the only republican ever elected in the district as then constituted. The vote prior to that time had always been in favor of the oposition, being 350 in the election before Mr. Webb changed it to 150 republican.
He has always been close to the people being one of them and his respect for his fellowman has been developed in twenty years of lodge work
W. L. Appling.
A. C. RICHARDS.
For County Clerk
One of the most important offices in Sedgwick county is that of county clerk and for that office the republicans have named a young man who has all the qualifications to all it with credit.
A. C. Richards, the candidate of the republican party is a young man, just past his thirtieth birthday—he is a graduate of Tillford Academy, of Venton, Iowa, and also has received a thorough business course.
He will make a good county clerk and one whom the people of our county will feel proud.
E. WEBB.
For County Treasurer.
NO 26
as an Odd Fellow, ten years as one of the Knights of Pythias and as many as a member of the Anti-Horsethief association. Mr. Webb is an old timer, a thorough business man of good habits, and the voters of Sedgwick county can make no mistake in electing him to this important office.
E. PHILLIPS.
For Coroner.
E. Phillips, the candidate for coroner on the republican ticket, is one of the early settlers of Sedgwick county, having come to Wichita township from Calumet county, Wisconsin, in 1876. Mr. Phillips has voted the republican ticket since 1854. Mr. Phillips was born in New York in 1831, and re-received his educatio nin the Theresa high school of that state. At the age of twenty-one he moved from his old home in New York to Wisconsin, where he took up farming as a menas of livelihood. He collected in the 1852 Wisconsin infantry and served with his company for three years. He was in a number of battles, and was wounded at Altoon Pass, Georgia.
Since coming to Wichita Mr. Phillips served three years as justice of the peace and has been a notary public for twelve years. He, with his son, engaged in the grain business at Greenwich investing their entire capital and in the hard times from 86 to 1900, they were forced to the wall, losing all they had invested.
Mr. Phillips has always been a worker in the party and well deserves every person's support in the coming election.
S. B. KERNAN.
For Commissioner
A resident of the county for more than twenty years, during which time the taxpayers have shown an appreciation of his administrative ability by trusting their matters in his hands time and again. S. B. Kernan is again the chosen candidate of the republicans as the man suited to the peojle's idea of their executive in county matters.
His past record assures the party of the wisdom of their choice. Mr. Kernan was first chosen to represent the people of his ward in 1893, when he was elected member of the board of education. After serving a year his faithfulness to his work and his power to get things done convinced the board that it would honor itself by conferring the honor of president upon him. His co-workers did not err in their supposition, for during the school years of 1894 and 1895, the schools of the city were run within the income of the board with a surplus at the end of the year.
In 1897 the people chose Mr. Kernan as the person most worthy of their trust in financial affairs, as city treasurer. In 1899 the party decided upon him for chairman of the republican county central committee. Again his executive ability was proven by the success with which he handled the political forces and brought victory to his side.
Three years ago and again last year Mr. Kernan was elected to the city council from the first ward. In this position he served the city unwaveringly and next to the municipality, his ward, as his re-election to a second term is ample evidence.
Nothing succeeds like success, and so it is with S. B. Kernan. He has built up a fine business of his own, and as county commissioner will manage the county's affairs with the same conservativeness as he has run his own mercantile business.
W. R. KESSLER.
County Survever
W. R. Kessler was born in Fairfield county, Ohio, in the year 1843. He enlisted at Sidney, Shelby county, Ohio, in the 99th Ohio in 1862. On the 20th day of September, 1863, he was taken

fa. The heavens have interposed to
put a stop to blood shed. Rain, im-
passable roads and exhausted armies
‘@re factors sufficient in themselves to
explain the cessation of hostilities,and
‘these conditions are aggravated by a
dense fog overspreading the whole
of the theater of war. Behind this
pall either side .weuld be able to
change the disposition of the whole
forces in absolute secrecy, but the
‘abscurity renders absolutely danger-
‘ous any attempt at a forward move-
ment. When the curtain of mist is
lifted ‘the fighting may be resumed
under totally changed conditions.
Associated Press correspondents at
the Russian front record a successful
reptilse of night attack on Russian
outposts in the early hours of Octo-
ber 10. The Russians pursued the Jap-
anese and captured a gun, which un-
der the cover of the fog they were
able to remove.

The wild flight of rumors continue
in St. Petersburg, the rout or capture
of Japanese divisions or battalions and
scores of guns alternating with alarm-
ist stories of General Kuropatkin’s re-
treat on Mukden, all equally untrue.
War office declares there have been
no serious developments since cap-
ture of Lone Tree hiil last Sunday, and
authorizes the Associated Press to de-
ny the reports that a Russian battal-
jon had been annihilated in trying to
reeross the Taitse river. A prominent
general said.
“It is absurd to propose that a bat-
talion was still in the other side of
the Taitse river when the whole of
‘the eastern flank had withdrawn 16
miles northeast of the river. As to
the stories of General Kuropatkin’s
retreat, it is sufficient to refer to the
energetic scouting behind the Japan-
ese lines to show that the Russian
commander is determined to mix with
the forces of General Oku.”
‘The Associated Press is informed
on+good authority that the sixteenth
army corps will be the next to start
for the front. ‘Tnis corps is stationed
at Vitebek and belongs to the mili-
tary district of Vilna, which, as al-
ready announced by the Associated
Press is going out as a part of the
second Manchurian army, under the
former chief of the Vilna district,
General Grippenberg. The corps will
probably leave Vilna on November 8
direct for Harbin.
SAKHAROFF SENDS REPORT.
Japanese Battery Opens Fire and
Was Silenced.
+ St. Petersburg, Oct. 24—The gener-
al staff received the following dispatch
from General Sukharoft:
“The Russian troops, October 19th
made a reconnoissance in force
against the enemy south of the vil-
lage of Sindiapu. The enemy's out-
posts were driven back. A Japanese
battery which opened fire was silenc
ed and compelled to retire. There
was no fighting Octo’r 20. This
morning a Russian voly»teer sharp-
shooters under cover of the fos closed
up on the enemy and browt ia anoth-
er gun aad limber, whicn was left
from Poutiloff hill(for erly Lone Tree
Hill). ‘The Japanese opcned a heavy
fire, but the fire was silenced and
they were compelled to retire.”
Diplomats Fear to Meet.
Washington, Oct. 25—Count Cassini,
the “Russian ambassador, and Mr.
‘Takahira, the Japanese minister, have
agreed to a treaty of peace, but it im~
plies only to themselves in their of.
ficial positions. Under the rules of
diplomacy it would be a gross breach
of etiquette for either to recognize
the other while their countries are at
war. oe ‘

lengendered by privations, exposure,
fith and vermin. All this he suffered,
land was mustered out of service May
30th, 1865.
Returning to Shelby county, Ohio,he
entered upon his present avocation of
til February, 1865, It seems enough
that men should sacrifice their youth
the prime of manhood, their business
land propertty, leave friends and fami-
ly, and place themselves before the
cannon mouth to die, if need be for
their country’s cause; but would not
that death have been sweet, and even
desirous compared with the suffering
Istarving, slow death process of those
prison pens; where unsheltered from
drenching rain, the torrid sun and
chilling night dews, surrounded by ab-
ject wretches dying rapidly of disease
‘civil engineering and surveying. Af.
iter all the roads of that county had
been transformed into free turnpikes
he began to look to the west for a new
opening, luckily coming to Wichita,
arriving here in the latter part of 1884.
| Thirty-seven years of practical ex-
perience certainly has made him pro-
ficient in the practice of his profes:
sion. There is absolutely no question
about his competency. The county's
interests will be honestly and conscten-
tiously looked after with him i the
surveyor's office.
| The framers of the state constitu-
tion in their wisdom limited two of
the county's offices to two terms, and
it is an unwritten law in state and
nation that two terms are the limit,
and yet the opposing candidate has
been nominated for a fourth term.
It is quite certain that the people
will be ready this fall to elect Mr,
Kessler to his second term.
There is absolutely no reason why
he should not be elected by a splendid
majority.
CANDIDATE KISSED 500 BABIES.
Made a Big Record and is Confident
of Re-Election.
New York, Oct. 22.—Henry W. Gold-
fogle, candidate for congress in the
Ninth congressional district, spent
a day in the pleasant occupation of
going through his district kissing ba-
bies. He made the proud record of
kissing 500 babies and is now confi-
dent of re-election. There are more
than 800 tenements in Goldfogle’s
congressional district. Goldfogle is
a bachelor, handsome and worth over
$200,000, He was accompanied on his
trip by “Big Florrie” Sullivan. At the
end of the day Goldfogle was a sight.
The babies had daubed candy over
his face and shirt front and many
had spilled the contents or nursing
bottles on his clothing. But Goldfogle
was happy.
TROOPS AT POLLS
Military Will Be at Hand During the
Election,
Rome, Oct. 21—The war office has
issued instructions to military com:
manders for the distribution of troops
during the pending electoral cam:
paign, Under these _ instructions
should a request for soldiers be made
by the authorities at any time of the
smaller places in the kingdom, based
on the assumption that public order
is endangered, the report must be ac
complished within a day.
RUSSIAN SPIES PERHAPS.
They Visited the Railroad Yards and
Made Inquiries.
Spokane, Was., Oct. 24.—Advices to
the Chronicle from Hiylard state that
men believed to be Russian spies have
visited the Great Northern Railway
yards at this place apparently seeking
to trace the shipment of Japanese tor-
pedo boats enroute to the coast. Early
in the evening a party of rough look-
ing strangers, believed to be Russians
appeared at the yards making inquit-
ies for these cars. The yard men re-
fused to tell them, but they learned
<lsewhere that the boats would arrive
later. When the boats arrived the
men reappeared, looked at cars, took
the car numbers and disappeared
again. The boats were shipped west
the same night. They are on flat cars
covered with canvas and billed as ma-
chinery .
Russians Make Advance.
St. Petersburg, Oct. 21.—Lieutenant
General Sakharoff reports as follows:
“The Japanese are concentrating on
our center near Tin Shipu. Captain
Demdufiski, while reconnoitering cap-
tured two Japanese guns, sustaining
no loss to himself. Our left has made a
slight advance.”
Gaitueed San atalon.
St. Petersburg, Oct. 21.—A dispatch
to the bourse Gazette from Mukden
dated October 19, says that on the
18th, a detachment of the Russian van-
guard on the west front surrounded a
Japanese battalion and compelled it
to lay down its arms.
No Change at Front.
London,Oct. 25.—Field Marshal Oya-
ma reports this. “There is no change
in the situation at the front. The
guns eaptured by our left army total
forty-three. Twenty-seven of these
were taken by our left column.”
Shot Full of Holes.
Hull, England, Oct. 25.—The steam-
er-trawlers Moulmein and Mino ar-
rived at Hull seriously damaged by
shots, the latter having sixteen holes
in her hull. It is feared that other dam-
age was done to trawlers and that at
least one more was lost with all hands.

‘There may be better workers than

they set about the work at hand, seek-
ing neither praise nor criticism as
they solve their problems. Possibly
they have their petty jealousies like
other women, and their differences to
adjust, but these are not in evidence,
and no machine could run so smooth-
ly ff not well ofled.
‘Their wisdom and foresight in large
and small matters are as remarkable
‘as the nation’s preparedness for war,
and it 1s the more wonderful when
you consider that many of them have
‘been reared in luxurious ease and
most of them in close seclusion.
A few have gone out into the world
with their husbands since the Restor-

in official life at home, but the major-
