There were 102 delegates, fifty-two

fifty for Colonel Roosevelt.
The chairman of the county cen

though an ardent Stubbs adherent
has made frequent professions of ad
herence to Taft and was elected on
the delegation from Greenleaf town
snip with that understanding. The
Greenleaf caucus voted .for Taft, 16
to 7, and the Republicans of Green
leaf expected their instructions would
be carried out. Mr. Longley was
therefore elected chairman of the
county, convention, no fight being
made on him by either side. A mo
tion was then made, that the chair
man of each delegation cast the vote
of the delegation. This was carried
and when Greenleaf' name was call
ed to the great surprise of the Taft
men, Mr. Longley cast three votes
for Roosevelt and five for Taft.
This reversed the majority and
the meeting adjourned under a storm
of protest. The Taft men probably
will elect a contesting set of dele
gates to .both district and state con

(( Theodore Roosevht
The "chango of life " h a most
critical iieriod in a Avoman's ex

women as it draws near is not
without reason.
When her system is in a de

gestion of some organ. At this
1 time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread of
impending evil, .timidity, sounds
in the cars, palpitation of the
hoart, sparks before the eyes,
irregularities, constipation, vari
able appetite, weakness'- and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly heeded by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in' life when'. Woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be heeded in time.

Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. It

"My friends and fellow citizens
what has happened here when you
contrast with what has been done In
Jackson county 'gives the measure
of difference in our attitude and the
attitude of our opponents. In Jack
son county the people on our side
arranged to send delegates without
an appeal to tbe people and that
was over-ruled by our own people
and primaries are to be held so that
tbe people shall have the right to
express their own choice. Where our
opponents have held a "snap" con
tention Is all because they think the
friends that law, tbat any laws, we
can devise will ever take the place
of individual character.
"You Kansans ars all of what you
are because you have had the right
kind j of type of average man and
average woman character. The in
dividual character must be the prime
factor In winning success. But in
addition to that you must have the
right kind of laws of government to
give that character fnll play. It Is
Just as it was In the Civil war, the
prime element in the soldier was the
stuff that was In him. If he didn't
have the right kind of stuff In him
you couldn't get It out of him. be

nevertheless you couldn't get the best
