Topeka, Kan, June 5.-George W.
Martin, secretary of the Kansas His.
orical society, has just completed 6
:oster of the territorial and state Off.
GERS of. Kansas. The roster begin:
territory and ends with the present
administration. In territorial days
Kansas had ten governors appointed
by the president. They were: Andrew
Fl. Reeder, Daniel Woodson, Wilson
Shannon, John W. Geary. Fred P. STAN
ton, Robert ]. Walker, James w. Den
yer. Hugh S. Walsh, Samuel Madary
and George M. Beebe. During that time
there were only five territorial secre-
tarfes, as follows: Daniel Woodson,
Fred P. Stanton, James W. Denver,
Hugh S. Walsh and George NJ. Beebe.
1t is a strange coincidence that every
one of the territorial secretaries were
promoted to governors. There were
only two auditors, John Donaldson and
H. ]. Stricken, and two treasurers,
Thomas ]. Cramer and Robert B.
Mitchell. The three attorney generals
were: Andrew J. Isaacs, William Wear
and A. G. Davis. The three superin-
tendents of schools were: James H.
Noteware, Samuel w. Greer and John
G. Douglas. Two chief justices reigned
during the territorial period--Samuel
D. Lecompte and John Petit. The six
territorial associate justices were: S.
W. Johnston, James M. Burrell,
Thomas Cunningham, Joseph Williams,
Rush Gilmore and Sterling G.. Cato.
Kansas had one delegate in congress
in territorial days John W. Whitfield
served part of the time and Marcus ].
Parrot the remainder. Gov. ReedeI
contested Whitfield's seat one term
with the result that the place was de-
clared vacant.
