hours speech 1t Is estimated that he can

Farmer Funston has the next best dis
placement record.
Abilene Reflector (Rep.) Ingalls, Will
be safe as correspondent at the 'front.'
The SDaniards can't hit him and II they
capture him he will be taken for re-
concentrate and allowed to go.
La Crosse Chleftain (POp.): w. Eugene
Stanley says no man can read QUO
Vadls" and preserve his purity. A man
whose purity is so weak that "QuO Vads"
can destroy 1t has no business running
for Governor.
Eureka Union (POp): Kansas people
who want insurance will certainly have
more confidence In the companies that
report their business satisfactorily TO
the Slate department Of insurance than
In those who refuse TO so report.
Sedgwick Paragraph (Rep): We be-
lleve that Bank Commissioner Breiden-
thai was right in suggesting that build
ing and. loan associations In this State
should be under State supervision the
same as the banks and the deposition
should have as good guarantee OF solV-
ency as he does with the banks.
Clay Center Dispatch (POp): Are not
the Democrats OF Kansas as we'll pleased
with the records OF the present State
officers as are the PopulIsts? II not,
against which one have they kick COM
ing? Is there any Democrat, who Is not
himself a possible candidate, who OBJ
jects to the denomination OF every one
Of them?
Lawrence World (Rep): The World
trusts that the rumOrs about the Ma
tiOnal Guard are untrue and that they
will take their chances by enllsting, II
after all that has been said they are not
patriots enough to take what comes to a
soldier then Governor Leedy was right
In the first place and will so be looked
upon.
Philllpsburg Herald (POp.): Too many
Republican editors expect the Peoples
party press to uphold Mr., Mckinley In
all his war program, but they seem called
on to abuse Governor Leedy for all his
uCJ1 OA LLiG bttAAS llAAGs A4OCAy 10
rs much an official Of the people as Is
Mckinley, and both should be upheld
by the press.
Hutchinson Gazette (Pop): We desire
to express our opinion that for shelving
any of the men [Bush, Stryker or Hefe-
bOwerl above mentioned, the ticket
would lose ten Populist votes for every
Democratic vote gained by the change.
Il 10 still our belief that the rank and
1le Of Democratic voters are not asking
any such swap, and we are sure those
In this part Of the State are not.
Manhattan Republic (Pop.): The Re-
public Is, and will be, firmly opposed to
the turning down Of any present member
Of the State government, or any Populist
member Of the Congressional delegation,
whether II be to serve the ends Of "fu-
sion, absorption or individuality" The
principles Of POpulism are great moral
factors, not for bargain and sale, and the
party stands loyal to the leaders who
have proven true when tried.
Emporia Gazette (Rep.): Ex-senator
ingalls, strldent voice Is raised in lamen-
tati0n over the passing of John Sherman
Mr. 1nBdlS SHOULD remember LnaC Wnen
John Sherman retired he did not stand
up and renOuRce the principles OF a life
time in the vain hope OF gaining a new
lease of life. John Sherman may have
been stoned to death like Stephen but
he didn't go hang himself like Judas;
and John ingalls, can put that in his pipe
and smoke 1t,
Lawrence World (Rep): Every mem
Der OF the militia that could pass an ex-
animation In this city enlisted as a sol
der. All the complaint about injustice
has died out. Governor Leedy was right
in saying that while the National Guard
should come first 1t should not shut out

organization Of the company. In this city
all the old officers were reelected and the
