Badly Ratified.
DON'T TAKE THE BET
Never in History of Politics
Was Such a Gang DOwned

Many laughs have turned up in the
present campaign, but nothing as funny
as the stampede IN the Toler camp yes
terday.
Yesterday a Leavenworth Times reach
ed Wichita with full account Of STAN
teys speech there Wednesday night. In
speaking of home rule, Mr.. Stanley said:
II am opposed to a restoration of the
metropolitan police system
Some one of the Toler crowd caught
sight Of il, and then the panic began. 1t
was the funniest thing IN the world.
The Leedy crowd turned white when
they heard Of it. They thought OF the
wager over in the bank, the $1,000 wager
that they might have taken, in an I'M
guarded moment, though none Of them
ever believed that Stanley would appoint
q commission.
But the whisper started:

Mr.. Stanley will talk upon the home in

The speeches of other candidates who

in the history of Kansas.

DON'T TAKE THE BET

The assertion by the Leedy crowd that
Stanley would appoint a police commits
sion has been positive. He favored
commission" they said He has his
men already picked" they said. Perhaps
they had really imposed on some one.
Perhaps some one had believed them!
The crowd shuddered. Some poor limo
cent might be robbed of his money. And
so the whisper grew into roar:

EXCELLENT POSTAL RECORD

Mr.. Ralph Smith Of this city, who Is a

He got the magnificent mark Of 100. the
greatest possible. His examination was
on postoftices SIS to counties. He was
given 1,665 cards, representing the differ

"DON'T TAKE THE BET"

Stanley was one Of the first men in the
state to come out against the Ubiquitous
system He had sense enough to know
that S. 500 a month under Ross is better
than $50 a month under Leedy. Any
body can see that. The Leedy crowd can
see ii. They always knew that Stanley
would not appoint a police commission.
But somebody might have been fooled
by their false assertions and unguarded-
iy lose a thousand dollars So the whis-
per spread into a yell:
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1898-11-05
"DON'T TAKE THE BET"

Every man in the Leedy crowd shiv-
ered when he heard what Stanley had
said at Leavenworth. Every man knew
that ne had confldenually assured per-
sonal friends that Stanley would appoint
& police commission. What If some one
OF those friends should rush over to the
bank and pour his money into a rat-hole?
1t would be a terrible thing. a terrible re-
suit of a falsehOod. And so the cry
spread, louder and louder:

Not one Of the crowd had ever believed
that Stanley would appoint a police COM

assertion so often that some poor, trust
Ing Leedyite might drop his good money
on their falsehood. No one must be Grip

should be dropped in the campaign to
