suit Of Presidency.

speaf ia his pusui d tie presidency
ae average Of $i5,apa a day. TINS
statement WAS made in Nv YoIh=l4=t
Week by a man Wao Is N position to
know What Ec is talking about. as tc
is we'll inf qmed rs 10 what is going
on in MIR Hears 8 newspaper office
and political shop. Fftecn thousand
dollars day for about a hundred
days amounts to a round million and
half dollars, not counting the large
sums spent bfore the first Of the year
This is pretty heavy investment Ill
the fad of a ycMng man who has been
accustomed ITO buy whatever he want
ed in this world, and there may be
some truth in the rumOrs flying about
New York City that Mr.. Hearst is
pretty near the end Of his rope, so far
as ready money is concerned. For all
this enormous outlay the self-made
candidate has to show, up to date
just thirty-tWo delegates to the ma
tional Democratic convention. He
may be able to possibly bag hun
dred more, though that would appear
to be about the limit of his possbili-
ties. Give him total of $50 dele
gates and reckon his expenditures at
cnly tn million and half dollars
which his people say he has spent
since the first of the year, and it will
be seen that when he gets to st. Louis
and looks over his array of followers
in the convention he will find that
they will have cost him $4,000 apiece.
Considering that these delegates will
number only about one-seventh CT the
entire voting strength of the conven.
ton, it may be doubted if even Mr..
Hearst will conclude that they are
worth the money. True, he has Oh
tanned lare amount of advertising,
such as it is, but he has made very
small progress toward the goal of his
hopes, the presidency Of the United
States Another bad feature of tie
case is that after they have "del.v.
cred the goods by voting fer Hearst
on the first ballot, most cf these dele
gates, following the usual bent of
such, will refuse to stay bought and
make haste to get on some other can
ddate's band wagon, leaving Willie
suspended in the air.

ALBAUGH HAS QUIT
Does Moi Desire to Remain
Chairman of the Committee
FOR THREE CAMPAIGNS
He Has Led His Party to
Famous Victories.

Topeka, Kan, Feb. Morton Albaugh
will not be candidate for the chair
manship of the Republican state central
committee again, even though majority
of the state committee should be for
him. a formal statement to this effect
is made today. Mr.. Albaugh has been
chairman of the committee through three
capaigns.
Governor Bailey having withdrawn
from the race for governor" he says, Il
neither expect nor desire to remain at
the head of the state committee.
Asked if he would accept the place if
a majority of the members of the COM
mittee should wish him to do so he said:
Most emphatically no. The nominee for
governor must lead in the campaign and
the head of the state committee should
be of his own choosing"
Kansas City, Feb. Nv. r. Stubs.
who arrived here last night, said today
to a reporter for the Star:
Mr. Hoch, if he becomes governor and
he doubtless will, will be absolutely
without hindrance of any kind He will
be governor, ne alone. Nobody is figur-
ing on riding into office on his coattails
because of any promises made by him.
This movement is to make a governor
for Kansas who will be governor him
self"
Mr.. Stubs said that he believed that
all the present state officials aside from
governor would be renominated Steak
ing of Governor Baileys withdrawal, he
said:
Governor Bailey was up against GER
tain defeat. Perhaps it might have been
better for him to have fought it out, but
he never would have won
