There are two different stories as to
the action of the secretary of state in
regard to the democratic nomination of
Judge Mckay. Secretary Bush says
that he deemed the nomination paper
insufficient and did not file it, and ap-
piled the same rule to the protest. His
stenographer, however, says that the
nomination was filed September q
and the protest was filed September 80;
that Secretary Bush sustained the pro-
test without notifying and hearing the
interested parties as provided by law,
and that the papers so filed were not
open to public inspection. In either
event the secretary assumed authority
he did not have. The law provides
that when nominations are made in ap-
parent conformity with the statute the
secretary of state shall file tn EN-. and
In the event of a protest having been
made within three days after such fill
ing, he shall notify the interested par
ties and decision shall be rendered
by Board consisting of the secretary
OF state, attorney general and auditor.
after having heard the evidence pro
and con. Mr.. Bush did not conn ply
with the law in any respect and it is
due the voters of this district that be
explain his unusual proceeding.

The Anthony Republican man clear
lY misrepresents facts when he saws:

"Judge Mckay is given some prominence
as an advocate OF the rigid Interpretation and
enforcement of temperance laws. In Janu-
airy. 1897, a young man from Harper was
brought before him charged with the illegal
sale of liquor. He was found guilty as charg-
ed. He was not sentenced at that term of
court. He has not been sentenced at any
term of court since that time. He is not out
on bail. He is not in the custody of the sher-
iii. Judge Mckay could probably tell that he
is engaged in the illegal sale of liquor in Har-
per at this time, but he win not give away his
friends. The unsentenced man has Mckay
vote. There are four or five other votes in this
| family that will be cast for Mckay and his
able, very able. assistant in this line of tenn
perance work, Finch, and Mckay tells the
people of the Twenty-fourth judicial district
| that he Is In favor of the enforcement of the
| prohibitoly law
The truth of the matter is, the young
| man referred to had no money to pay a
fine or costs, but his sister who works
for her living, agreed to pay the costs
II time was given. Judge Mckay sus-
pended the sentence for this reason,
and upon the further promise of the
young man that he would not further
violate the law. The sister has kept
her word and the costs are nearly all
| paid. If the young man had been con
fined in jail the taxpayers would have
had to shoulder the burden and no
costs would haYe ever been paid.
If the editor or of the Republican
knows of any yiolators of the law he
ought to file complaint.-Kiowa Re-

f. M. SHELL is man who has no
favorites in school matters. No mat
ter what your political convictions may
be, no matter what church you attend,
no matter what your religious Views
may be, you will always get fair treat
ment at his hands. His record as
county superintendent fully substanti-
ates us in saying that every man, wom-
an and child in Barber county will be
treated right in school matters as long
Mr.. Shell is in that responsible office.
No criticism of his administration has
ever been offered and 1t would be folly
to exchange him for one who has
scarcely gained a residence in the
county.

LONG & NOBLE have a very unique
arrangement so far as the. county at
torneyship is concerned = provided the
voters of Barber county concur. Their
student is the candidate for county at
torney on the republican ticket and, if
elected, they would, of course, con-
duct the prosecution of all criminal
cases. This would be a strong induce
ment for those who are prosecuted to
employ the firm of Long 81 Noble to
conduct the defense. With Long &
Noble prosecuting and Long s. No
bic defending, that firm would have
monopoly on the law practice in Bar
Der county and there would probably
be one conviction in a thousand. A
nice thing for Chester Long and AL.
Noble but rather severe on the taxpay-

Advocate and Newsl

II would not vote for any man, Pop
| ulist, republican or democrat, who talks
about Kansas as Stanley does,' said
John Breidenthal. the other day.
at his meeting at Topeka Saturday
night Mr.. Stanley said: when that
splendid citizen, John Breidenthal,
gets into the voting booth, and there
| alone with his conscience and his pencil
he will vote the republican ticket"
This statement of Mr.. Stanley has
aroused the INDIGNATION of Mr.. Breid-
enthal. II haYe no use for any man."
continued Mr.. Breidenthal, "who will
saythat the Populists of Kansas are re-
sponsible for the evil reputation of the
state. l want to say to you, and if l
see Mr.. Stanley will tell it to him, that
it is not the Popullst party that has
given the state bad reputation. but
the people that are lying about thePop-
ulist party. l know why the republi-
| cans have lied about the Populists.
| When tie Populists won and took the
government of the state for two years
they stood off their creditors on propo-
sltion that they couldn't pay their debts
until what Stanley calls the blight of
POpulism had been removed from the
state. They simply took advantage of
| these two years so that their debts
| would be Outlawed. / want to say to
Mr. Stanley that when he insults the
| Populists of this state he is insulting the
| 6ahf no u N n r,Qnnla Of hn or IN
Ing his own county and city, and prove
to him that majority of the uebt pay
ers are Populists or men who are in
sympathy with the Populist idea Of
bringing about those reforms that will
enable Them to remove the burden of
debt. Mr.. Stanley says that Populism
had its birth in short crops
| He does not know what he Is talk.
Ing about. The Populists' first success
was in 1892, when Kansas had the larg.
est wheat crop IN the history ofthe state.
He says that POpullsm was the product
of bad times. when dlscOntentment aud
| distress prevailed. want to tell him
that Populism was born under the ad-
ministration of Benjamin Harrison, and
the republicans told us in 1896 that the
administration of Harrison was one of
the most prosperous in modern times.
These are things that are in our minds
If republican politicians would quit ~
ing about Populism l do not believe
that Kansas would haye the bad repu-
tation that it has. But lies wont de-
ceiye the people of the United States
much longer about Kansas. Kansas is
contradicting those lies in way that is
effective and convincing. The people
of the United States realize that with
Populism controlling the state the peo-
pie are paying off more of their debts
than at any time in the history of the
state. l have no patience with any
candidate that insults the people who
raise the crops, dig the mines, raise the
stock and produce the wealth that pays
the debt and redeems the credit and
honor of Kansas"
