offered to A. J. Wyatt, a Wichita At
torney-Henry Allen Next
Choice

Wichita, Dec. 2O.-It is known that ex-
Probate Judge A. J. Wyatt, an attorney of
this city, has ben rendered the position of
private secretary to Governor Stanley.
Mr.. Wyatt has not as yet either accepted
or declined the place. If he does not ac-
cept it, the position, in all likelihood, will
be rendered to Henry Allen of the Ottawa
Herald. The Herald is Third Assistant
Joe Bristows paper and Mr.. Allen is it's
managing editor in the absence of Mr.
Bristow. Joe Bristow according to the
statement of a prominent Sumner county
politician. has great influence with Mr.
Stanley.
Mr. Myatt is Mr.. StanIey's personal
choice, and as stated, he will be the gov
ernor 5 private secretary if he will take it.
Mr.. Wyatt has not a wide political ac-
quaintance, but he is a shrewd fellow. He
is a good, loyal fellow to his political
friends and is a good adviser. That, I'M
doubtedly, is the chief feature in his per-
sonalfty that has recommended him to
StanleV.
