TALK Of NELSON.
FusiOnists Would Nominate Him
For Superintendent.
Says He Was Beaten For OPP
posing Book Trust.
G. w. HANNA FAVORS IT.
Clay County Ex-senator Says
He Is Very Strong.
VIII White Explains Adoption
Of Republican Platform.

A movement has been started among
the Populists of the state to offer the
fusion nomination for state superintend-
ent Of public instruction TO Superin-
tendent Frank Nelson.
A good many Populists believe that
Nelson was turned down for renomina-
ton by the Republican state convention
largely through the influence of the
American Book company. Nelson
fought Ne American Book company IN
the recent awarding of contracts for
readers for the Kansas schools for the
next five years, and the Populists be-
heYe the American Book company re-
taliated by pulling all the wires it could
against Nelson's denomination.
It can not be disputed that Nelson has
made a good record as state superin-
tendent and this fact has made him
many friends among Populists who do
not believe that politics ought to enter
into school matters. This class says
that Nelson is their kind Of a man,
even If he is a Republican,
There is a good deal of talk about
nominating Nelson among the Popuiists
of Clay county" said George w. Hanna
of Clay Center today. Nelson is strong
among the voters of the state regard
less Of politics because of the good rec
ord he has made as state superintend-
ent and because of his fight against
the American Book company. If he
would take the nomination from the
fusionists he would poll not only the
fusion vote of Clay county, but a lot of
Republican votes as well. The Repub-
lican clerk of the district court in our
county announced himself some time
ago for nomination for a third term.
but when Nelson was turned down he
withdrew He said If Nelson couldn't
make a third term with his record.
there was no use for anybody else to
try"
superintendent Nelson has been in
Iowa the past week attending the com
mencement exercises of his alma. mater,
Iowa university, and visiting friends in
that state. He knows nothing about the
fusion boom that has been started for
him.
It is not likely that he would ac-
cept nomination on the fusion ticket.
as he has always been one of the most
pronounced Republicans in the state.
although he believes the Office of sup
erintendent of public instruction ought
to be removed from politics.

The Emporia Gazette gives the follow
ing as the inside history of the building
of the Republican state platform at the
recent Wichita convention:
1.-THE resolutions committee was
cinched SO tightly against Burton that
it couldn't grunt. In some way Albert
H Horton got on. Leland heard the
I guess I'll go on myself He went on
Congressman Long stood up before the
committee and read a resolution which
he said was written by Senator Burton;
then he said he had another covering the
same ground written by Congressman
Scott. Leland scratched his chin and
said that to him some way it seemed
that the Scott resolution was more
nearly to the point and moved it's adop-
ed the motion. It carried. Long read
another resolution written by Scott and
q paraphrase written by Burton. John
Gilmore sQuinted his eye and said some
way or other the wording of the Scott
resolution seemed better to him than the
Burton resolution and moved the adop-
ton of the Scott resolution Leland sec
pair of resolutions written by Scott and
Burton Leland was caught by phrase
olOgy of the Scott resolution and moved
its adoption; Gilmore seconded it; it
was adopted. And so the platform was
made plank by plank. 1t was a strange
coincidence that the Burton resolutions
were all lacking in that fine literary
favor which appeals to the keen artistic
sense Of Mr.. Leland, but so it was Mr..
literature and never slips a cog as a
critic. By the way, there's nothing the
matter with that platform; but isn't it
a daisyi"
