Burton's New Plan to Suppress Sena-
torial Fight

Kansas Republicans have grown weary
of the contest for United States senator
and many of them have expressed the
the background until after the election.
The Burton forces have adopted a new
plan, which is exemplifed by the utter
nominated for representative in Logan
county. Giessler said this to the conven-
ton:
''Since 1t has been rumored or reported
that I favor certain man for United
States senator, I want to say that / am
not directly or Indirectly pledged on that
proposition, but since Senator Baker and
]. r. Burton are the only avowed candi-
claims to the people before the legisla-
ture is chosen, think one of them ought
to be elected In casting my vote for SEN
ator shall be controlled by the wishes of
a majority of the Republicans of Logan
county"
