A Man WITH A MILLION

the matter. The New York CONNER

Stories, wilder even than those Of

COOKE MAKES REPLY.
Ellinwood Editor Discusses Incon-
sistency of State Printer Figures.

J. w. A Cooke, editor of the Ellin-
wood Leader. and a Long supporter,
said today:
THE claim made by this mornings
paper that the alleged machine was
responsible for Hoch's defeat for state
printer is not borne out by the facts.
Taking the papers own figures and
lists we find eight members of its Cur
tbs list of January II who, according
to its lists this morning, voted for
Clark They are Senators Chaney.
Hurrel. Buschow and Peterson and
Representatives Brown of Brown, Sims
Francis and Pollock. If HOch was real
" scrucified7 one-fOurth of the members
claimed by Curtis helped to drive the
nails Any one of these eight Curtis
votes would have tied the state printer
contest and any two of them voting
for HOch would have elected him. The
Curtis members are as much response
bic for Hoch's defeat as the machine
In addition to the eight members just
mentioned the paper this mornlng z

not been for that action Mr.. Hoch would
have had everything his own way, Cy-
rus Leland would nave been for hiin
He would have had little opposition
from any quarter As II was II gave
an excuse for the friends Of Mr.. Clark
to suppor- him Notwithstanding Hoch's
years of unrewarded services to the
party.
But still Hoch would have been elect
ed had it not been for the action Of some
of the Curtis supporters during the past
three or four days. They were positive
of Hoch's election and they were accord
ingly anxious that it should appear as
a victory for Curtis 1t was giVen out
that Hoch was Curtis man and the re
port was circulated that Mr. Curtis him
self was appealing for votes for Hoch
ia order to give himself an appearance
of greater strength. This Immediately
put the supporters of the other senator
ial candidates upon the defensive. Clark
and his friends were quick to take ad-
vantage Of it, The result was that they
found enough anti-Curtis men who were
really afraid the election of HOch would
give Curtis little prestige that they
voted for Clark as matter OF poltics
against their own personal convictions
Yet Notwithstanding this 4lr-Hoch came
within two of an election Had the
caucus been held last week before the
Curtis ueople became SO active in Mr..
Hoch's behalf, Mr. Clark would not
have been elected
When the caucus was called to order
last night. Senator Morrow, of Wash
ington county was made chairman OF
the ioint caucus on motion of Represen-
tative Leland.
Mr.. Leland also moved that the friends
of each of the two candidates name a
secretary and teller. The Hoch side
named J. NJ Nation for secretary and
/ o. C. Billings for teller The Clark side
/ named George Hayden for secretary
and w. NJ. Kinnison for teller.

At promptly u o'clock, after re-
cess of three-quarters of an hour,
Speaker Pringle reassembled the house.
Immediately afterward Sergeant-at-
Arms Cave announced:
"The senate with it's officers waits
without"
1t is supposed he got the expression
from some lodge ritual.
The senator's marched in preceded by
Lieutenant Governor Hanna and Sec
retary Sheldon. Governor Hanna took
the speakers chair, while the members
of the senate occupied chairs provided
for them in front of the main body Of
the house.
The lobby was soon crowded with
spectators and the report spread that
. few of the senate employees had come
along to witness the proceedings. The
balance were compelled TO stay out in
the corridors.
The hour having arrived as fixed by
Joint resolution for joint convention
OF the two houses for the election of a
state printer, the convention viii now
be in order" announced Lieutenant
Governor Hanna.
The roll call showed 3S senators and
I15 representatives present
Senator Allen of DOniphan nominated
George A Clark of Junction City as
the Republican nominee, and Represen-
A4LANE baLAdlu III Ltd civ IA AlA III sf'HAAA
ed the name of Grant w Harrington
of Hlawatha as the fusion nominee.
The roll call was simply matter OF
form. The call of the senate gave 81
votes for Clark and for Harrington
The two absentees were Senators Full
Hngton of clay and Mcknight of Geary
The house vote gave Clark 81, Harrlng
ton 20. Total, Clark 123. Harrington 55
The Joint convention then immediate
1y adjourned, and this was followed by
the adjournment of the house until il
o'clock tomorrow.
George A. Clark will be state printe
for the term of two years begiunius
with July j. 1903 He was elected q
that Office at noon today by the join
session of the house and senate.
The matter was settled in the join
Republican caucus last night when MI
Clark defeated E. w. Hoch of Mariol
for the Republican nomination by Vot
of 65 to g. 1t was so close that
change of one vote would have made
tie A change of two votes would hav
elected Hoch.
The defeat of Nfr Hoch was due t
two thin=s. his action at the Wichit
convention, and the eagerness of som
of the Curtis element to claim his elat
tiou as a Curtis victory. With til
country press of the state almost solid
for him, and the sentiment of the ran
and file of the Republican party largel
in his favor Mr.. HOch say almost eel
tain victory melt away into defeat.
The latter of the TWO reasons give
was the one which finally made II
election of Ar. Clark possible. 4 wee
ago there seemed to be little doubt hl
HOch would have an easy victor
