Gov. Rogers has given II out that he IL
candidate for denomination. In making
this declaration the governor took oeca-
sion TO remark that nothing would be done
by him In an Official way TO aid In secur-
Ing the nomination. Gov. Rogers work as
chief executive of this state has been open
and above board and his every act in the
administration OF state affairs bears evil
dence Of cool and deliberate conadera-
ton IT'S true he failed to please every
body. and even some of the fine-haired
chaps in the combination which elected
him find grains OF comfort in opposing him
now. and for no other reason than that he
gave them to understand at the outset
that he was governor and intended to act
In that capacity. Whether John r.. Rog-
ers Is renorninated or not, he will have
the satisfaction OF knowing that he per-
formed his duties well and faithfully. In
him the taxpaying populace of this COM

Santa Fe Official Changes.

The Santa Fe has abolished the office
of general claim agent, the work OF this
official being referred to the general
claim attorney. In the settlement OF
two-thirds of the claims made against
a railroad the matter has to be referred
to an attorney for an opinion before
definite action is taken. Instead OF Mr.
Ryfus referring to Mr.. ]. D. M. Hamll-
ton for opinion, the claims will now
come to Mr.. Hamilton direct, and there
| will be no second handling.
james Dun, chief engineer of the
| Santa Fe, has been promoted to a posi-
ton known as consulting engineer Of
the Santa Fe system, and will hereaft'
er make his headquarters in Chicago
W. B. Story, Jr., who has been named al
| chief engineer of the Santa Fe proper
has been chief engineer and general su'
p%erintendent of the San Francisco &
San Joaquin Valley line for the pas
two years. Arrangements were mad
for his removal to Topeka when Pres
ident Ripley and Vice President Bar
were in California ten days ago. G. D
Purdon, who has been assistant chic
engineer for several years, would hav
been the natural successor of MI. Dul
as head Of the engineering department
at Topeka.
