A LOSING GAME.
Senator Harris Says He Lost
$4,000 a Year In Politics.

In a letter to John Caldwell, the
Democratic state senator from Bour-
bon county, Senator William A. Har-
ris puts a final quietus on all talk of
running him for governor of Kansas
on the Democratic ticket.
1t has been known to his friends that
Senator Harris has not made anything
financially while in politics, but the
senator makes the statement that his
expenses have been more than 50, 900 a
year more than his salary while he has
been in politics, and that he has been
compelled to sacrifice practically all his
property, SO that now he is compelled
to go into something which will yield
him living.
This is, of course, an easy matter
for a man of Senator Harris abilities
but he makes it clear that this pre-
cludes his having anything more to do
with politics for the present. 1t is
understood that his new position with
the Shorthorn Breeders association
pays him a salary of $4,000 a year and
expenses. 1t will necessftate his re-
moval to Chicago, for time at least.
Senator Caldwell wrote Senator Har-
ris recently asking him to be a candi-
date for the Democratic nomination for
governor, and in his reply Senator Har-
ris said:
friends most sincerely for the good wishes
expressed and for the compliIn paid
me in regard to the matter of candidacy
for governor. To be entirely frank with
you. however, it is absolutely impossible
for me to re-enter politics. My expert
ence in public life, while exceedingly
gratifying in it's results so far as good
feeling and appreciation of the people gem
orally is concerned, has been very disas-
trous from financial point of view. My
expenses every year have been from at
least s., 200 to $500 more than my salary,
and as I had very little means. nothing
but a farm with a mortgage on it, have
practically been compelled to sacrifice ev-
erything, and 1 must now go to work, if
I can find some steady employment that
will make me a living.
II have had very flattering offer from
the Southern Breeders association which
has headquarters in Chicago to take up
some necessary work for them which
my familiarity with the breed of cattle
concerned, as well as with general legis-
lative matters, enables to do, and L
probably shall make headquarters in Chi
cago for some months, giving up my res
idence in Kansas.
''Of course the matter of appointment
on the commission is still pending. While
the president talks very kindly and with
high appreciation of my testimonials and
fitness. yet 1 think that I probably shah
be left out"

JAPAN AS A NAVAL POWER.
She Draws Her Seamen from Fish
ing Foundation of Two Million.

-
In 1858 Queen Victoria presented a
Japan, detailing some British bluejaek-
cts to the duty of instructing the Jap
anese in the management of that class
of vessel. The Japanese undertook to
handle the craft before they had thor
oughly learend their lesson, and on the
first voyage, when they wanted to
stop, they discovered that they had for
gotten how this operation was per-
formed They therefore steamed round
and round the gulf of Yeddo until the
fires died down, and then the yacht was
tugged home.
Since then Japan has risen to the po-
sition Of one of the great naval powers
and her progress of recent years has
been nothing short of marvellous. At
the time of her war with China her
whole fleet displaced about sc, 900 tons;
today the aggregate displacement is
over 100000 TONS japan has a fishing
population of about 100000 men, and
from this section of the community she
draws her seamen. Hitherto she has
been depending upon other countries for
the construction of her vessels, but the
time is near at hand when she will be
able to throw off the assistance of the
western world. Her arsenalS are already
capable of building protected cruisers
and torpedo craft, and a gun factory
and armor plate fctory are now being
established which will soon be ready
to begin work.
Her Seamen are men of intelligence,
resource and sea lore, and capable of
quickly acquiring sufficient mechanical
skill to enable them to control the COM
pick mechanism of their modern men
of-war with complete success. They
desire no pampering and they can live
on the simplest food and sleep any
where; but in their new ships they
have more air and, in some respects,
greater comforts than are to be found
on many, if not most, British men-of-
war.
These sailors of the far east take
things very much as they find them.
with a stoical calm. They face danger
with much the same spirit with which
they take their pleasure, and in spite
of the rapid strides which civilization
has made in their country their lux
uries are few and they are contented
and happy. They are devoted to simple
sports to fencing and to acting; no
one con ever forget the dramatic en-
tertainmentS on board Japanese men
of war who has been privileged to wit
ness them. Nor does the memory soon
become dim of one of these ships when

there be any danger of his getting
that and the affairs of the New Jeru-
salem mixed up? There are great pos
slbilities in the contemplation of a
mixture of this kind.
Mr.. Stubbs was in Kansas City We'd
nesday and denied that he is a candi-
date for state chairman.
Il am not a candidate for chairman
OF the Republican state central COM
mfttee, and have no ambition in that
direction" he is quoted as saying.
1t is suspected that Mr.. Stubs has
an ambition now to try his hand at
running against Governor Bailey. He
urges that the fight on Governor Bailey
be kept up. In a long letter to Bent
Murdoch he continues to assert that
Bailey is not entitled to a reelection
brought out against him. Accordingly
Colonel Murdoch dominates Mr.. Stubs
as the successor of E. w. Hoch as a
candidate for the anti-machine forces
to rally around. Commenting on this
suggestion the Emporia Gazette says:
by all means let US have Stubs of
Lawrence, for governor. He is the
successor of our sanity Burton in the
Jerusalem scheme, and what he would
do to a graft If it came to the COVER
nor's office with a. Burton sugar-coat-
ing on it, make one turn pale even to
think of it. All hail Stubbs-thane of
Cawdor, he shall be king hereafter-say
in the New Jerusalem. Stubs is a
name to conjure with; it rhymes with
clubs, tubs, rubs, cubs and scrubs; and
also and especially with dubs. And
damned be he who first says-hold,
enoughr"
The Lawrence Journal publishes the
following rather paradoxical statement
concerning Mr.. Stubs gubernatorial
boom:
Ross Stubs is being doomed for
every office from governor down just
now. There is but one office he will
take. and that is representative from
the district he now represents Of
course if an emergency should arise
that demanded a sacrifice from him, he
would not hesitate to do his duty as
he saw it, but at the present time his
ambition in a political way is limited
to the hope of seeing the state re-
deemed from machine rule
