A Few Words About the Candidates

John w. Leedy of lie Roy, our nomi-
nee for Governor, is AZ years old, was
born at Belleville, Richiand county
Ohio, and came to Kansas and settled
in Coffey county i'm 1881. He is aot Il
politician, never having taken an
active interest until 1892. when he
was elected to the Senate from the
Coffey- Franklin district. This is the
first and only Office he ever held. He
was Democrat prior to the time
when lie allied himself with the Pop
ulists. He is not college graduate,
but has absorbed "a good solid. com
mon-sense education. and his life has
| been such that he is in close touch
with common people. He has lived
on farm during his entire residence
| in the State. Nh Leedy has wife and
thee children. His career in the
Senate was creditable one. His
voice and vote were always heard on
the side of the Populist principles.
His greatest effort was put forth in
the fight for maximum freight bill,
and it was he who led the fight which
resulted in the Board of Railroad
Commissioners prJmulgating a consld-
erably reduced schedual of rates. He
is a safe man III whom to intrust the
interests of the people.
| Frank Doster, the nominee for Chief
Justice, reeds little Introduction to
Advocate readers. He is a broadmind-
ed, able, polished lawer ana gentle
man. AS Popuhst his record is of
the best. That he is friend of the
common people is shown by the man
nes i'm which he has been persistently
abused by corporation press. Judge
Dester IS thorough Kansan, has
held a JUDICIAL position before and
has made Il record of which he NAV
we'll he proud. lie is an old soldier,
having epteaed the army at the early
age of fourteen and a half years.
jeremiah D. Botkin. the nominee
for Congressman aLlarge, is one of the
most able. earnest and devoted
Populists i'm Kansas. He was former
ly Methodist minister, and while in
charge of a congregation at yelling
ton became converted to Populism.
Some dissensiOn arose aid he resigned.
In 1894 he moved to Neodesha, and
was nominated by the Populists for
Congress against Kirkpatrick. He
was defeated and has spent his time
since in political missionary work.
This work has been done without sec
uring sufficient income to afford a
living, but he has kept it up antiring-
1ly aud nnceaslngly. He ia able and
| earnest, and will honestly represent
his constituents.

that the down trodden labor of your
