being made, The Champion gives no
evidence Of its truth though,
The worst job of imitation Of public
speeches which has ever been perpe-
trated in Kansas is that Matched up by
the Hutchinson News as extracts from
Jerry Simpsons navy speech. After
omissions are supplied the meaning is
entirely changed.
The American who says the govern
ment can't run railroads must have
great confidence in the governments
ability, He ought to b Q proud of a
country that cant do what the mon
arches OF Euro 'e and the revolution
torn republics OF South America sue
cessfully perform. Under government
ownership the same men will work on
railroads that IRE now employed there
on. They are not all going to quit
Just because the roads are owned by
the public, They wouldn't lose their
ability TO handle trains and keep up
tracks just because the whole nation
became the owner OF the transporta-
ton lines. The present owners may
tell you that such state Of affairs
would come TO pass, but don't believe
II. The same managers that privately
owned railways now employ would
manage the property just as cheerfully
for the United States as they now do
for the stockholders Believe Inc, dear
reader, the government wont have to
club the railroad managers and en-
ployes into its service when it owns

THE KANSAS CAMPAIGN.
POPULIST'S CLAIMS ON THE
VOTES OF THE PEOPLE.
Tho Republicans Have Adopted Decep-
tlon and Isrepresentatlon for Their
Campaign, While the Opposition De-
ponds on Facts and tho Truth.

@, A. Bailey, Topeka insurance
man, who is general agent for the
Phoenix Insurance Company, has dis
covered that he must not playfully
make unnecessary aflidavits nor disre-
gard the instructions OF the insurance
department. Some time ago he signed
and swore to an affidavit that he was
still using the Garrison rate sheet. AS
soon us the matter was brought to the
attention Of superintendent McNall
he promptly issued an order revolving
Mr., Bailey's license He also wrote
the general officers of the company no.
tifying them that Mr.. Bailey was vio-
lating the agreement which they made
not to use the GARRISON rate sheet and
saying to them that II such action was
taken by Mr.. Bailey with their knowl-
edge and consent that he would re-
yoke the license of the company to do
business in Kansas. Republican papers
have charged that the old Clarkson
rate was being used continually in
Kansas and that McNall was taking
no step to prevent it. His action
when possessed Of evidence that the
rete was being used indicates that Mr..
McNall still enjoys good health and
has his eye on those who are disposed
to lay unnecessary burdens on those
who carry insurance.
Jerry Simpson is being pcrsistently
attacked for his vote ON war measures
by the republican papers of his district.
Nearly every one of these papers will
fully misrepresent the record and sew
eral openly charged that he voted
against every war measure which was
proposed. Some Of them had sense
enough to keep still though as the re-
cord shows that the house resolution
was supported at every stage of the
discussion by Mr., Simpson In the house
and by Senator Baker in the senate.
If Mr. Simpsons votes were not the
votes Of patriot then neither were
Mr.. Bakers. In this connection the
public will be interested in knowing
that the record Of all officers, not re-
publicans, is being persistently mis-.
represented by these republican papers
and that every flaw in the record Of
republicans is being carefully covered
up by Justification and evasion. There
is not feature Of the popullst portion
OF the record which cannot be pointed
to with pride and campaign falsehoods
cannot keep the facts from the peo-
pie.
The Travellers Insurance Company,
which Webb McNall has shut out Of
Kansas, has been trying to get the
government to waive the war revenue
stamp tax in its case and let it make
monthly reports and turn the money
IN in bulk. The internal revenue Off
GERS say between the lines in their re-
ply that they admire the company's
gall but that it cannot be done.
AT the national encampment Of the
G, A. r. Corporal Tanner vigorously
assailed Pension Commissioner Evans
for his rulings detrimental to the well
fare of the veteran. He said that no
man who had heard the sound OF cam
non or who had slept out doors would
make such ruling and that he was
not therefore surprised when he found
that Evans war record consisted Of

The republican papers still continue
their gleeful announcements that the
Norton Champion has gone back TO
the republican party this year. The
Champion still carries the populist
state ticket and supports it. If its pe-
sition is correctly reported by republi'
can papers it is the only republican
