ty delegation will not be for Bailey on
the first ballot, but he made the reser-
walton that the bet is not to stand in
case Bailey is nominated by acclama-
ton. If Mr.. Grimes did not believe
there is danger of such an event TAX
ing place he would probably not have
made such a reservation And Mr..
Grimes heads the Wichita county dele
that he can prevent a nomination by
acclamation if he desires.
The Kansas City Journal tells the
following story of the bet this morn
'!The contest for the nomination for
governor has reached a stage where 1t
has aroused the blood of those two old
sports, State Treasurer Frank E.
Grimes and State Printer w. Y. Nor
gan. Today they grew so excited that
they laid wager on what Dickinson
county, the home of Senator Burton,
would do on the first ballot at the state
convention.
1.-The affair started by Morgan asking
Grimes, How does Dickinson county
Stand?'
Grimes replied, Tt stands all right
Bailey will not get vote out of it,
Bailey will get several votes out of
it, replied Morgan. In fact. he will
get a majority of the delegates. on the
first ballot. too
I'm bet you a hat that he don't
said Grimes.
T never bet hats said Morgan, but
I'll bet you the eQuivalent-$5 in cash
that he does
Grimes said he would take the bet
with one provision, namely, that the
bet would not stand if Bailey were
nominated by acclamation. Morgan
accepted the proviso, and then this
written agreement was gotten up and
placed with the stakeholder along with
the funds wagered:
Morgan bets Grimes $5 that Bailey
will have majority of the Dickinson
county delegation on the first ballot
Morgan comedies to Grimes that if the
candidates against Bailey withdraw
before the convention and Bailey is
nominated without opposition the bet

election boards and will be at the mercy

election boards and will be at the mercy
of the Republicans and Democrats.
The election law provides that the ma
jority of the board in the precincts and
the party next in numbers shall have
the majority. The Populists have been
counting that this meant the majority
party in each precinct, and that the
precinct should be the unit on which
the majority and minority should be
based. To make sure of it Secretary
Curran asked Attorney General GODDARD
for an opinion. Mr.. GODDARD gave it
orally and his opinion was that the law
meant the majority party in the state.
According to the figures compiled by
Secretary of State Clark this will give
the Republicans two judges and clerk
on the election boards and the Demo-
Gratis one judge and one clerk, leaving
the Populists out entirely
There are approximately 2,400 pre-
cincts in the state. The Republicans
are in control in 400, the Democrats in
&C., and the Popullists in only 400. This
is because the Populists, many of them,
voted for the Democratic electors two
years ago and were therefore counted
as Democrats.
Secretary Curran is afraid the Popu-
lists are entirely shut out of recogni-
tion on the election boards, but he is
hoping that the Populist trustees in the
four hundred PopuliSt precincts may be
able to give the Populists the best of it
