Mr. Botkin was scheduled for other speeches in this county this week, but whether discouraged by the poor showing made at the two meetings he held or for the reason given out in the Democratic press, a business summons from Oklahoma, his other dates were cancelled. Mr.

Campbell ends his speaking tour In the county tonight with a speech at South Mound. A comparison of the speeches made by these two candidates shows a very striking difference. Mr. Botkin devotes about half his time to personal abuse and attack on Mr. Campbell, and most of the remainder of his time is a bid for Republican votes.

On the other hand. Mr. Campbell makes no personal reference whatever to his opponent, hut devotes his time to a discussion of the vital relation of Third district industrial and agricultural interests and Republican legislation, the necessity of Republicans Joining hands to maintain Republican supremacy, and giving an account of his stewardship as regards Third district affairs. The meeting at Earlton last evening was one of the most enthusiastic and best attended ever held In that frequent applause given Mr. Campbell indicated the accuracy of the Btat foment of one of the prominent Republicans of Canville township who war, in attendance, that the Republicans of the township, almost to a man, were united for the ticket and that primary differences had been laid aside.

President George Piister, wife and daughter, returned Saturday morning from Kansas City where they took in the American Royal live stock show fcr a coup? of days. "The American Royal is certainly a great thitisr," said ilr. Pfister this jnorninjr.

"The primary object of this wonderful exhibition of blooded stock is for the purpose of encouraging the breeding of thoroughbred stock of all kinds and it is the desired effect. I have attended the show for years and each year I can notice that more interest is beinr taken and that the exhibits are getting better and there are more of them. "The cattle exhibit was great. The four leading breeds of beef cattle fwer3 well represented. They are the Ilerefords or white face the Durham or short horn Aberdine Angus or short hair black, the Galloway or long hair black, and let nve tell you there were some beauties to be seen.

The horse, mule, hog and sheep exhibits represented the very t-rst cf breeding and attracted much interest. The machinery display was 'also cf great interest. All of the very latest of farming implements and devices were shown and their workings "demonstrated." Mr. Pfister states That the crowds were so great that many eople could not secure entrance to the show. He says that th-; American Royal is xio longer a society event, but instead a great school for those engaged in raising live stock.

Fight in Neosho County Last Week indicates tne 1 rena. 1 Chanute Tribune: Judging from the results of the Third district ccn gressional fight in Neosho county this week, where it has been waged with both Congressman Campbell and Candidate Botkin in the field, Mr.

Campbell's majority this fall will be lully as great if not greater than in any previous campaign. Mr. Botkin spoke at Chanute and Thayer. His Chanute meeting was attended by possibly three hundred people, which for a congressional candidate at this stage of the campaign is not a very flattering showing. At Thayer his meeting was one of the chilliest receptions ever accorded a candidate in this county, less than half a hundred turning out! Both Mr.

Campbell's meetings, for the communities in which they have been held, have been record-breakers. Both Mr. ar.d Charles Adams Given Surprise Sunday Evening. The fifteenth 'annivessary of the marriage cf Sir. and Mrs.

SETH WELL" IS A Former State ior Scouting About in Search of Politics. Seth Wells, publisher of the Erie (Kan.) Record, and former state auditor: was calling on friends in Coffeyville Friday.

When asked the object of his mission here he replied that he was trying to run across some politics. When told that things political were exceedingly quiet here he decided to cut his stay short and move on to some other section of the state. "I never saw a more quiet campaign, and apparent lack of enthusiasm," said Mr. Wells. "Even in my home county, where everybody is more or less of a politician, very little politics is being talked.

It seems so different from our old time political campaigns." When asked if many of the Erie Republicans were out of line, he said that the Republican ticket would poll practically the full party vote. "There is probably a half dozen off the reservation, as far as the head of the ticket is concerned, but I know of twice that many Democrats who say they are going to vote for Stubbs." EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD. Charles Paxson. Republican candidate for sheriff, was a guest of Coffeyville Wednesday. It is needless to say that the object of his mission was to drum up votes.

Presently, he thought he detected Arwleno conceal one of the watches in his right hand, and Cap-tan McCrum, who was sitting near, also thought he saw him put one in his left coat pocket. The latter then walked between the stranger and the door, and Mr. Dodd3 accused him of having taken one of the watches.

This he denied, but Captain McCrum nailed the fellow and he and Mr. Dodds and Raymond Andrews, who happened to walk in, sat on him until an officer arrived. As Captain McCrum thought, the watch was ifound in the fellow's left coat pocket. Before being searched, the fellow maintained that he had only put his handkerchief back into the pocket. The stranger had visited most all of the jewelry stores and endeavored to see the watches.

He did not meet with, much success at either Truby's Rhodes' or Pearson's, but at Lang's he succeeded in getting a small watch partially concealed in his hand. John S. Dang, who was showing the tickers, saw the stem of the watch, grabbed his hand, got the watch and told him to get out of the store. The fe'low bought a 50-cent pair of cutf buttons of Mr. Rhodes, but Mr.

Rhodes was suspicious and wouldn't have much to do with him. Mr. Pearson also was suspicious and showed but one watch at a time. At most of the places the stranger also asked to be shown some dirks. GAS SUPPLYJSJURNED OH ntchen Brothers Now Furnishing Light and Heat in South Town.
