ALLEN NO COTTONTAu.

sional race, on the ground that Scott
has already been made a rabbit by
his congressional experience, and that
Henry Allen is too good a man to spoil
by sending him to congress.
With this as a text the Kansas City
Star speculates on what Mr. Allen
might have done had he been in con-
gress when the Standard Oil fight came
up, for instance. It says.
Whatever else Henry Allen may be.
he is no cottontail Hasn't he stood I'D
against Cy Leland and Burton and Tom
Kelly, and anybody else that didn't suit
him? Did he change front when the
stampede from Bailey began? Did any
body see any cotton at the base OF his
spine at the Wichita convention last
year2
Besides, Henry Allen is keen to rec
ognize and embrace opportunities. He
is smart-'smart as heaven'-as a Kan
sas man once said of Ingalls,. Does any

that if he were elected to congress he
would throw away his chances by Join
