All organized living things, whether be-

of death and decay.

within the human system through iihpef-
feet digestion of food, producing various
poisons which scientists have denoniinateu

The Candidacy of c. F. Scott.

When the Kansas Republicans In
state convention assembled nominated
Charles T.. Scott for congressman- at
large, they did "A fitting thing almost
unanimously. 1t was clearly the sense
OF the meeting that Scott was the man
for the place; because whether they
felt IL consciously on not, the delegates
at the convention saw that Scott Is
more nearly representative OF Kansas
at her bes than any other man who
has been before the people on any tick
eft for many years. Now that isn't
saying he is the smartest man or the
honestest man or tile hardest working
man, though he is distinctly intelli-
gent, honest and nard wOrklng-lt is
saving he is more like Kansas. lie Is
like Kansas because he is young aud
strong, because he has made his own
way through adversely, because he has
clear, vigorous, well trained mind,
because his hearts, clean and his hands
unstained, because he Is generally
right and always sincere and earnest.
| Kansas is all OF these things. Scott is
a part and product OF Kansas, and Kan
sas-at least the Kansas Of this closing
decades part and product of Scott.
For nearly twenty years lie hae been
editing the Lola Register" Until
very recently it has been weekly news
papcr--yet its influence on the politics
of Kansas has been as wide as any
daily In the West-bocause the" Regis
ter" has been, first Of all, a fair paper,
a just paper, a decent paper a kindly
written, cOnscientiously edited paper.
The force Of character, not the force
of rhetoric, has made the "Register,"
and Scott's character is in the Greg
ister' files as plainly as fathers feat
ures are upon his child. Republi cans
have found in the "Register" a safe
text book, and the Populsts have
found it a permanent injunction
against their plans. When he went
to the state senate he made his char
acter a matter of public record. His
vote was cast On the side of common
sense. lie never stopped 10 demagog-
uey. He was elIicent. Tue things he
started to Go he did and did thorough
ly. His short public career was hon
orable and full of praiseworty results.
i In his private life Scott has had the
average successful American career.
His parents gave him good educa-
ton and when he was graduated from
the State University his father gave
him S10. That was his start IN Ire
! After that he worked with his hands
hand worked with head and saved MS
money and kept out OF debt and got
married and his children now growing
up around him Will all have about the
start their father had, which is the
best heritage in the world. Scott
is the young mans candidate and in
Kansas all men are young. For the
state is full of courage and hope and
ambition. 1t is fitting that Scott
should represent Kansas-all of Kan
sas-in congress. Emporia Gazette.
