DIVISION OF THE OFFICES Committees Have Mapped Out What Each Branch Shall Get. Topeka, Kan., March 4.—It took the democratic, populist and free silver republican state committee un- stil 2 o’elock this morning to agree upon an equitable bas for this year’s fusion. The conference com- Mittee’s report was not at once ac- ted by the populist and it was only aiter repeated that the opposition agreed to suspend ther resistanee. For an hour or two preceding the populist acquies- fence it appeared doubtful whether aM agreement would be reached. At last the populists yielded and har- mony was restored. Thesum total of the conference ~ ed summed up as follows: : populist, democratic and free silver republican state conventions Mill be held on the same date and at ey same place, at Fort Scott, July The democrats called their “early” fonvention, to choose delegates to e Kansas City convention, for Wichita, May 23. The populist set their Clay Center fonvention, to elect delegates to the ux Falls convention, for April 25. The democrats are allowed these Offices: Associate justice, secretary Sistate, treasurer, one judge of the tourt of visitation, ‘tout of visitation. _ The populist are to have: Gover- Ror, lieutenant governor, heral, state auditor, congressman- large, superintendent of public in- Struction and one judge of the court Visitation.

Lincoty, Inu... Marcu 3, 1900 Frank H. Crowe, Esq., BUTLE Dear Str:—Your letter proposition for building a new court house for Bates county carefully considered. As a general principle, Mr Scully is opposed to extravagance in public buildings, and especially when the} object is mereiy to replace an ample} old building with an architecturally | striking new But in Bates| county as we understand, the case is | different. You substan- . Mo. to as the has been | one. radically the present one is comdemned as un- safe. In acounty as large as Bates, | acourt house is a necessity, and | sooner or later it must be built.| Delay in such a case is dang that it leaves records, which be replaced, exposed to destruction or damage, which may effect not only the public of the conty, but individ- uals, whose titles or rights depend rous, in cannot upon the records of the county. As it is proposed to build the court by a direct levy of three years taxes: and not by the creation of bonded debt, it seems to us that the citizens and farmers of Bates county should look upon it as the best way of meet- ing an expense which is and really inevitable. Our judgment is that it would be false economy to put off incurring an outlay which must be met, and whieh delay may not only increase, but add irrepara- ble individual loss. These reasons induce us to recom- mend that you give the proposition your hearty support. Yours truly, KOEHNLE & Trapp, Financial Agts for Wm. Scully necessary | What’s Your Face Worth?
