"
1cinCh J. D. Botlin has on the election Is
already evident.
NortonvllIe News (Rep.): In Missouri
y the constitution prevents the reelection
4 Bof the Governor, but in Kansas the peo-
pie prevent 1t.
WgKeeney World (Rep): We have
scrved good apprenticeship In the
echoolroom and our Judgment Us that
the books [those selected by the text
\ book commissionl are very good.
Nlckerson Argosy (Rep.): Major Hood
I and John Seaton are about 65 years old.
They are good men but they are too old
to be Governor Of Kansas. We had
Granny Morrill, and we don't want any
more grann1es.
Kansas City Gazette (Rep): The
Democrats now claim that they elected
Morrill, because Lewelling did not d.
\ vide fairly with them. The Republicans
must have a ticket that they can elect
under some other circumstances than
this.
Burlington Courier (POp.): The Su-
preme court says railroads must be al
4 lowed to make a reasonable" profit on
their investment. Wonder why 1t does
not guarantee that natural born or nat
uraIized citizens shall have a reason
able profit in their business?
Yates Center Advocate (Pop.): With
talk OF running John ]. Ingalls, in the
+ First and John p. st. John in the Second
and any old Democrat in the Fourth Con-
\ gressional district, what In the name OF
y Port Arthur's the matter with the Popu-
\ lists this year. Such foolishness must
cease.
Hutchinson Herald (Rep.): The half
baked fellow who edits the Newton Re-
publican vies with the bunch Of conceit
3 whose name adOrns the heading Of the
y Kingman Leader in trying to out-lie each
4 other about the outrage" perpetrated on
: the negro, Wade Thomas, by the re-
A formatory management.
n Medicine Lodge Index (Pop): The
7 Metropolitan police system Of Kansas
y has been an eye-sore to every Governor
Kansas has ever had. The law should
have been repealed long ago. No Gov
4 eFnor can regulate the police forces Of
all cltiee satisfactorily. A city Is enti-
\ lied to the right to regulate its own af-
fairs.
Kiowa County Opinion: Some public
officials seem to think that their future
destiny hangs on some fool interview In
q newspaper, Their mouths go of 80
\ readily that their friends cannot find
n enough time to make excuses for half
/, their ill-timed, immature opinions. May
\ the time speedily come when some Of
them may know when to keep their
mouths shut.
Lawrence Jeffersonian (Pop); Say,
brother &. 0. p., suppose you call family
. convention, one Of these evenings and
talk the thing over with your wife and
y boys, and see IL you can find anything
\ wrong with the present State admins
n tration. We don't ask you to come out
and "fess up" publicly, but II the old
\ thing is running about right, isn't II your
duty as good citizen to indorse 1t with
. your vote this fall?
Hutchinson Herald (Rep.) Wyandotte
s county Republicans will put VIM. ]. Bu-
\ chan before the Congressional COnven-
y tiOn OF the Second district as candidate
4 for Representative. Mr.. Buchan has
\ served twenty-one years in the Kansas
Legislature, eighteen Of them In the
y Senate, He probably plays the best game
h o9 poker In the State, and is the only
statesman the State has ever produced
that could hold the late Senator Plumb
n 1avel In that lucrative game.
n Wichita Beacon (Dem): The Topeka
/, Advocate says that the insurance COM
N panles take out of Kansas every year
n millions Of dollars which does not come
Y back and spend here another million Of
Kapsan's money in commissions, etc.
"A eyste9n Of State or county insurance
f, will save this $4,000, 900 annually to the
y taxpayer and at the same time give him
\ better protection than he is now getting
and at much lower rates, is thoroughly
practical. II will be plank of the next
