TURNER WILL BE FIRED
Leedy Gang After the Secretary OF Oh
Railroad Commissioners.

Leedy Gang After the Secretary OF the
Railroad Commissioners.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. 1S.-Some addi-
tional informa ton from the inside crept
out today concerning the fight on R.
W. Turner, secretary Of the state board
OF railroad commissioners, which con-
firms the belief that Turner may soon
tOe removed Last week there was a hull
in the fight, and the friends of Turner
claimed that Secretary Of State Busch,
who was conducting the fight. had laid
down and that Governor Leedy was
afraid to act However, 1t appears that
the administration is simly waiting to
hear from some outside parties.
1t developed today that Leedy is very
sore at Turner. Just at the time when
the governor had the pins set for a~spe-
cial session OF the legislature, Turner
interferred by writing a communication
to George Campbell, senator Of Labette
county, declaring that the present rail-
road law was sufficient. In it he point
ed out some provisions that had been
ton was printed in the Journal at the
time. Campbell had arranged to have
thousands Of copies Of the letter scat
tered over the state, bupt Leedy check
ed it. A few months ago Turner got
UP another communication on the aril-
road question in which he took the same
position. His intention was TO have il
printed at state expense as bulletin
from the railroad commissioners, and
scattered broadcast. He took the manu-
script 10 the secretary OF state and ask
ed for requsition on The state printer
to print il in pamphlet form. Governor
L.aedy got wind OF this, and had Commits
sioner Campbell withdraw Il. The mem
bers OF the state textbook board are also
after Turner. claiming that ne loboied
last winter for the book trust to defeat
school legislation. All of these things
had accumulated. and when Turner got
out during the last campaign and sup
ported the Republican candidate for
Judge. il gave the administration crowd
an opening to go after his scalp. While
the last offsnsa furnished the excuse. ii
was not the real caure Of the trouble.
The action of Turner in defeating the
plans OF the administration to make
raid on the railroads brought on the
fight.
M action will be taken in the matter
until ire text book commissioners have
time to get signatures 10 petitions ask
ing FOR Turner's remlval This is be-
ing done The petitions are expected 10
arrive next week Then the executive
council viii act. The administration ex-
poets Lewelling and Campbell to vote
10 remove. II does not expect Dillard to
vote that way. as he and Turner are
roOmrnateE and cnums.
