Mr.. BURROWS BLUFF
Threatened to Withdraw from
Ticket If Not Elected.

There is considerable aftermath of the
| Republican state central committee
meeting floating about today There is
a considerable difference in the various
1 stories that are told of ME-. Burrows
statement to the candidates late In the
afternoon. One story is that he twice
threatened to withdraw from the ticket
unless he should be elected chairman,
| and from that the stories taper down to
denial that he said anything about
withdrawing.
1t is asserted in one story that Mr..
Burrow did not agree to accept even
Mr.. Stubs. One state officer who was
asked about the story says that Mr..
Burrow was misunderstood and that he
took it back anyway.
What he really meant" said this
state officer. was that if he wasn't
proper man for state chairman he ought
not to be on the ticket, or something
like that"
During the intermission in the com
mittee meeting last night when Mr..
Hoch and Mr.. Burrow were trying to
get together, it is asserted that Mr..
Burrow first offered to get out of the
way if either r. N. Allen, Clyde Miller
or T. A. McNeal could have the chair
manship, but after getting STUDIOS into
the race Mr.. Hoch refused to consider
anyone but Stubs. Seth Wells says
Hoch could have made r. N. Allen
at the afternoon meeting had he wished
to do so, but he says Hoch declared
Allen was not a canQ1QaIe.
The Burton people agreed to LAY
down" at the meeting of the commit
tee only after 1t became apparent that
Hoch would win what he wanted any
wav.
"Burrow wouldn't have been defeat
ed" said one of his friends on the
state ticket today, eff two members of
the committee in the Sixth district had
not gone back on him. We lacked just
two of having enough to elect him, and
we didn't quit until we knew we could
MT win in the committee. We would
have won anyway if the old machine
men hadn't lined UP with Hoeh and
Stubs. We had two majority of the
new members"
1t is said that the two Sixth district
members who would not stand by Bur-
row were Charles W. Hull. the mem
Der from his own judicial district. and
H. c. Simpson. of Lincoln.
Mr. Burrow himself is taking his de-
feat very good-na turedly today.
Il am well satisfied now with the
outcome he said There would have
been no difference of opinion except for
a misunderstanding. Most of the state
| officers took Mr.. Hoch at his word and
so lined up for me. If Mr. Hoch had
been more definite and said just wha
he wanted 1 don't think there would
have been any trouble. presume his
modesty kept him from declaring him
SELF and / don't blame him at all. The
Burton matter did not enter into the
case with me at all. There are lot of
people against Burton, while I don't
propose to condemn him until the
charges are proven against him. l
won't stab a man when he is down.
L think it was for the best interests
of the party to have the matter settled
as it was and 1 am glad I withdrew.
Even if l could have been elected with
the votes of rs per cent of the commit
tee. I would not have taken the place
without Mr.. Hoch's approval"

SOMETHING FOR TOPEKA
Paul Morton Intimates COnces-
sions Ia Freight Rates.

Paul Morton, second vice president of
the Santa Fe. went through Topeka this
afternoon en- route to California, and,
at his invitation, was met here by a
committee from the Topeka Commercial
club to discuss the matter of Topeka
freight rates. Mr. Morton wired the
club that he would be passing through
today and invited representatives to
either meet him at Lawrence and come
up to Topeka with him, or go west from
Topeka to discuss freight matters.
The transportation committee of the
Commercial club recently addressed a
letter to the traffic vice presidents of
each of the four roads entering Tope-
ka, Paul Morton of the Santa Fe, j.
G. Stubs of the Union Pacific, B. f.
Winchell of the Rock Island, and A.
Q. Bird of the Missouri Pacific Tne
letter requested that Topeka be given
the same rates in out as Missouri riv-
er points. Such an arrangement is in
force for Lincoln and Hastings, Neb.,
and the jobberS and manufacturers OF
Topeka want to put on an equal basis.
Mr. Morton told the Commercial club
committee that the situation here was
talked over by the tariff men at Chi
cago Yesterday. and he indicated that
something would be done for Topeka.
He made an appointment to stop in To-
peka on his return from California
next month and meet with the bust
ness men here to go over the matter.
Major Anderson, secretary of the
Commercial club. believes that Topeka
is now in a fair way to get fairer
freight rates.
Among II ose who met Mr.. Morton to-
day were the following:
w. W. Mills, president of the Com
mercial club.
T. ]. Anderson, its secretary.
William Connors of Crosby Bros.
J. B. Belts, nominee for state senator.
NJ. C. Holman, president of the
Western Wooden Mills.
Jos. Bromich- boiler manufacturer
r. L. Cofran, of the Western Foun-
dry.
j. S. Warner, of Warner & Potter.
w. H. Davis, of Parkhurst & Davis.
D. J. Greenwald, merchant.
w. F. Jensen, of the Continental
Creamery.
D. P. Paxton, of Kemper & Paxton.

thing happens to the first lot. This
means that four times as many ball
lots as voters must be printed. As
there is a school bond proposition to
be voted upon as well as the general
election, there must be two different
kinds of ballots printed throughout
City Clerk Squires has figured it out
that in the First ward, $3.50 ballots OF
each kind must be printed. and in the
Second ward, 1871 ballots of each
kind. He has not completed his esti-
mates on the other wards. but it is es-
timated that about 125,000 ballots Will
be printed for the city to comply with
the law, of which about 100000 Will
never De used or needed.
1t will also be necessary, under this
wonderful election law, for the judges
and clerks to keep two sets of poll
books, one for the general election,
and one for the bond election, and four
ballot boxes, a male and female box
for each kind of ballots.
