London, July 26.-J. Pierpont Morgan

shipping combine and King Edward S

Morgan and Premier Balfour were both
particularly animated. A feeling OF
uneasiness pervaded the diners with
regard to King Edwards condition.

should be unable to fulfill his duties IN
the coronation ceremony. This was
due, to no little extent, to the state
ment of the doctors that the king IS
not yet allowed to walk. and to the
somewhat natural apprehension that
the severe strain of fortnight hence

never received from these papers a word
of condemnation. They affect to believe
that everything is right so long as Topeka
and few would be political bosses
there do it, and everything wrong if any
body else mansfests disposition to take
a hand.
1.-The lines OF political battle in Kansas
for this year were laid down last spring
at Wichita. Mr.. Curtis was one SIDE
On the other side were the friends of
Governor elect Bailey, Governor Stanley
and Congressman Long. The latter
won. They won in the face of the strong
est combination and strongest field of
candidates that were ever put up in Kan
sas. They did it fairly-they did it
openly and aboveboard- Governor Bal
ley was nominated and one with
thimbleful of sense, no, not even these
Topeka papers, ever supposed for mo-
rnent that after having won in this con-
test. after the untiring efforts that had
been put forth for his success by his
friends and the equally unrelenting eff
forts by his enemies for his defeat, MIR.
Bailey, having himself succeeded, would
lay down and give up the struggle when
it was but half over.
THAT convention at Wichita announced
Just as clearly that it did not desire Con-
gresham Curtis for senator as it did that
IL did desire w. j. Bailey for governor.
The contest for members of the Iegisla-
ture that followed in the different coun-
ties refiected the sentiment of that con-
vention, and legislature has bee n chosen
that is much more strongly opposed TO
Mr.. Curtis for senator than was the Wich-
tia convention Mr.. Curtis and his
trends have tried and are trying today to
juggle this verdict. Whether they will
Il T.
do it will not be by reason of a lay-down
upon the part of Governor Bailey and
his friends in whose remembrance sinks
deep the phraseology of the Horton
agreement and unrelenting opposition of
Curtis and his friends TO Mr.. Bailey when
he was a candidate for governor at

The Globe-republican., 1902-12-04
PRINoLE FOR SPEAKER.

Mr.. j. T. Pringle who is a candidate
for speaker of the Kansas house of repre-
sen:atives has shown unusual strength
from the time that his name first
mentioned IN connection with the speak
erahip. The few who have opposed his
candidacy have been compelled to admit
that Mr.. Pringle is an excellent man for
the place. The crowd that is waging war
against air. Pringle would favor him on
the same terms that they would favor any
other MANN consideration OF a promise
to use his office to further the interests of
Mr.. Curtiss, and to embarrass in every
way possible the administration of Gov
ernor- Elect Bailey. The Topeka papers
have been filed with abuse of MIR. Bailey
simply because when approached upon
the subject of Mr. Pringle's candidacy, he
stated that Mr.. PringIe as speaker would
be very satisfactory to him. Mr.. Stanley
was SO imprudent, too, to admit that
he believed Dir. Pringle, if elected speak,
er, would not consider that the whole
duty of the house was to elect Mr.. Curtis
to congress, and thus Mr.. Stanley became
objection to Mr.. PringIe. although Mr..
Pring1e was first mentioned by a Stanley
man and was instructed for MIR. Curtis,
and here was another criminal offense to
report in the Topeka papers. Mr.. Al
baugh who has done such splendid work
for the party as state chairman, believes
that Mir. Pringle would be a wise choice,
Consequently Mr. Albaugh is considered
thug by Mr.. Curtiss' friends and the To-
peka papers. Henry Allen, poor devil,
was so unfortunate as to be the first man
to mention Mr.. Pringle for speaker, and
should MIR. Curtiss' friends win ont, hang
ing is about the best that Henry could
hope for. In spite of all the bluff and
buster of the Topeka papers, however.
the big end of the sentiment over Kansas
is for Pringle for speaker and the mem
beers of the house no doubt will reflect
this sentiment when they come to make
choice; further than that, the people of
Kansas still have the same hearty respect.
and the complete confidence in w. j.
Bailey that they had a few weeks ago
when they rolled up the biggest vote for
him that any governor has had in many
years Kansas.
