Kansas City Times: Secretary OF
State Bush went to HOlton the other
| day, and while waiting for the editor
of the SunhOwer to show up, he went to
the case and set up column editorial
out Of his own head. The printers
thought he was tempest-t0ssed crafts
man and all Of them half way guyed
him. When the editor turned up and
introduced him as the Secretary Of State
they looked very sheepish."
At the University at Lawrence the
authorities have succeeded for years in
keeping women out OF any but positions
in which the duties are merely drudgery.
They are employed as assistants to the
professors, and as such do most of the
work. and they must of necessity be
as ably qualified for the work as the
professor himself The management has
succeeded so far in keeping any woman
from getting any better place
Ex-Governor Humphrey recently met
Mike Sutton while the latter was on his
way to LeavenwOrth, and he said to him:
Tell Senator Baker for me that he has
the opportunity of lifetime If he can
turn down the gang of political bosses
that is trying to run Kansas he will do /
the State a favor. He can't afford to
let them ride over him. If he stands by
his own selections and fights to finish
he will have the lasting gratitude of
his people"
The Santa Fe Monitor says it was
only a pint and a half of liquor that
General Buckner sent to the Palmer
and Buckner Democrats of Dudley town
ship, Haskell county after the recent
election. The Monitor seems to be a
prejudiced witness, however, as it seeks
to defend the Republican candidate for
County Clerk who was mixed up in the
affair in some way, and it Is to his in
terest to make it appear that mighty
little liquor was received.
Professor Georgeson's last bulletin
sent out from the Agricultural College
Experiment Station was printed after
the change in management and the
names of his successor and other new
members of the faculty appear in 1t.
On the copy received by the Advocate
sent with the compliments of Professor
Georgeson, the names of the new officers
are marked out with pencil. This Is 4.
in keeping with the very small disposi-
tiOn exhibited by several Of the retir-
ing members Of the old faculty.
Representative Lester Perry, Of Wal
lace county, resigned little more than
a month ago, leaving just time for the
Governor to call special election at
the time of the regular election. Moth
ing was then said about the matter, but
the Republicans quietly named candi-
date and filed his papers at the last
minute. The POpulists, knowing moth
ing of the resignation, did not name a
candidate. But Governor Leedy was
away when the resignation was received
and did not accept it, so no election was
held.
Ex-Governor Geo. T. Anthony always
refused to provide photograph from
which a picture might be made to be
placed with those of other eX-Governors
on the walls of the Governors office.
He never of late years had but one pho
tograph taken, and that was in New
| York, at the urgent request Of his wife.
He ordered that but one copy be made
and that the negative be destroyed. His
wife has consented to have picture
prepared from it and placed in the col
lection Of Governors pictures in the
Governors Office.
Kansas City Tribune Rep.): TON
McNeal last week INDUCED in vision
of judgment in which he gave George
NJ. Pullman harp because the old man
had been kind to his mother. That's
all very pretty, and that kindness should
cover multitude of sins, but some way
we can't help wondering ii Saint Peter
