P. WRIGHT, Agent. Another Issue Injected. It is regarded as certain that ex-Senator Harris will make a campaign issue out of Gov. Koch's willingness to lend the name of the state of Kansas to a Missouri, Kansas Texas railway company land grab.

The issue is a thoroughly legitimate one and the contrast, between Harris as a United States senator saving the government millions of dollars on the Union Pacific refunding bill and Hoch now lending the name of the state for the exclusive use and benefit of another railway company in an equally important proceeding is one for the people of the state to consider. The entire Kansas delegation in congress has opposed for more than two years this proceeding which Hoch is now backing. Senator Long has made not less than three speeches in congres while Indian legislation was pending in which he insisted that the M. K. T.

railway company had no claim whatever against the government. Congressman Curtis is reported to have told an attorney for the company who appeared before the house committee to urge legislation that, "that is exactly what we do not propose to do." It is an old proposition. It had twice been turned down by his predecessor, Gov. Bailey. And the fact that there was a political deal publicly connecting Hoch's name with this railroad must have fully informed the governor of the unusual character of his action.

We are inclined to think very favorable of Congressman Campbell, but we can't stand for the steel trust argument that he produced before the recent Republican state convention. We believe in the principle of a protective tariff but not to the extent of allowing the steel or any trust to be so favored that they may amass huge and menacing fortunes. The steel trust has outgrown any claim for absolute protection. If congress does nothing more with the tariff at present, it should amend the steel trust tariff schedules. The Leavenworth Times is opposing Harris for governor on the theory that he will enforce the liquor laws, while Hoch will not.

In the prohibition strongholds the plea is made that the law-enforcement plank in the Democratic platform is insincere, and that Hoch is the only simon-pure temperance candidate. And now Gov. Hoch is quoted as saying with quite a severe case of rheu matism this week. Wm. Smith of Wichita, was here Sunday visiting relatives and many friends.

Jennie Schadock and Genevieve Roger drove to Langdon last baturday evening. Mrs. G. R. Hutcheson of the county seat, spent a day in the city the later part of last week.

James and Andy Hickey mar keted a car load ot fat this week. They brought a good price. Judge Hamlin and R. C. Voran were among the number who attended the Goering-Krehbiel wedding.

Prof. P. D. Young and wife of Wichita, were the guests of rela tives in Pretty Prairie the first of the week. F.

C. Field and J. M. Bush attended the Democratic congres sional convention at Dodge City last Wednesday. E.

D. Clithers, manager of the Provident Savings life insurance society, has been here this week looking after business interests. A. B. Francisco, the New Church missionary, is visiting friends in this vicinity.

He will make several addresses during his stay. Dr. B. B. Buhler is having his residence property, on East Main street, filled in and levelled, pre paratory to the installing of a blue grass lawn.

D. M. Hynes of Loda. was in town Monday taking the sights. He says everything in the crop line is looking fine in his part of the country.

Dr. H. G. Welsh and familv of Hutchinson, were the guests of Mr. and Mrs.

S. G. Demoret over Sunday. The doctor is the pos sessor ot a new 14-horse power automobile. Mrs.

Mary Collingwood and Mrs. S. G. Demoret left last Monday for Gueda Springs, Kansas, where they will remain for some time on account of the ill health of Mrs. Collingwood.
