OLATHE ELECTION SUIT.
1t Has Been Appealed to the Supreme
Court.

In the supreme court the city Of
dcials of Olathe who were given GER
tificates of election in the last election,
have filed their answers to the quo
warranto suits brought by their IN
successful opponents. The answers
are decidedly sensational, and charge
that the defeated candidates used
money to buy the election.
There are three suits pending, and
an answer Of similar nature was filed
in each. F. r. Ogg is trying to dis
place J. J. Glover as mayor; c. r
PettyjOhn and o. J. Scott are fighting
for the job Of city treasurer and E. G.
owen and ]. H. Milhoan are in the
contest for police judge.
The defendants in the quo warranto
suit make all sorts of sensational
charges of bribery and corruption.
Among other things they say that it
was to be arranged SO that the city of
Olathe would pay over $1,000 to the
plaintiffs in the form of a contested
judgment, and that the $1,000 should
be divided up among the alleged

appear and millions of people are cor.
1espondingly happy. The output prom.
ises to present as great a variety as
usual, and soon the calendar fiend will
start on the quest In dead earnest. The
women folk win pass around and get
as. many as 1t is possible for them 10
find without having to ask for them
outright. Then the small boy or girl
will call for calendar for mamma, at
her request OF course, and finally the
man Of the house will so to various
places and inquire If they have any
calendars left, saying his wife would
like very much to have one. We're
speaking now of the general run of
calendars as they go. There will no
doubt be the usual list Of the vulgar
and Indecent kind which the men, be 1t
said to their shame, will hunt for aid
gIoat over and even insist on hanging
up in their offices, or II their wives
will allow 1t, at home. Along with the
bunch will be few of the really mer.
itorious kind. The West Virg!nian
yesterday received one Of that SOFT
worthy Of mention. 1t was presented
by Mr. Francis E. Nichols, the popular
FIRE Insurance man. Tile calendar has
a complete map and profile Of the up

location of the locks, the length of the
pools, the low water line Of the river

The reelection of Mayor Mcclellan
by such slender plurality complete.
ly foiled a very neat scheme of Tam.
many Hall to break into national poll
tics. The current issue of the North
American Review Of Reviews has the
following interesting editorial on the
subject:
1.-THE Tammany organization. domi-
mated by Mr., Murphy, had arranged
an ambitious programme for It's gen.
tlemanly protege, Mayor Mcclellan.
1t was expected that he would be
elected by a large majority. and that
next year he would become the Demo.
cratic candidate for governor Of the
State OF New York, with a view to
making him a Presidential candidate
in 1908. But Mr.. McClellans politi.
cal future would seem to lie behind
him, to quote a current political
phrase He has made the fatal mis-.
take all his life Of following the line
of least resistance. He has been a
recipient of iavors OF the hands of
Tammany bosses, and has never
fought his own square fight in public
life. He possesses ability and lntellI-
gence of no mean order, and in this
lies his condemnation. Men Of his
parts cannot serve to give 1ammany
an air of responsibility without a full
perception OF the role they are play,
ing, and when for long and unbroken
series of years they have rendered
themselves incapable Of a really In
dependent and self-directed public Ca.
reer. There Is a great deal to be said
for certain class OF men prominent
In the Tammany organization, The
district leaders, for example, are men
who fought their way up from the
ranks, and hold their own among their
fellows, as a general rule, through
sheer manly strength and largeness
Of heart, and born gifts of leadership
and command. Their political ethics
may not be refined, but they are men
Of strong characters, and they must
stand or fall upon their own merits
when judged by certain established
standards. But this sort of praise
cannot be meteI out to a group of
"gilded youths" VINO have allowed
themselves to be used as stool pig.
cons by the Tammany organization,
who have never lifted their fingers
in the real struggle of politics, who
have never for a day fought openly
for their convictions in the presence
Of the community and who have been
willing to help clothe Tammany with
an air Of responsibility in return for
Offices and emoluments. This sort is
not the sort of stuff out of which
Presidents of the United States are
made. Mr.. Jerome could have moved
as smoothly as Mr.. Mcclellan along
that well.lubrlcated political track,
but he is Of different fiber, and ne
would not sell his independence of
speech and action for any sort of pub.
lie job. 1t is barely possible that Mr.
Jerome's extreme independence may
prevent his filling high offices in the
future. But he has already. made his
name household word from Maine
to California, and he has made the
quality Of his political thought and
action an inspiration to thousands of
young men destined to fill important
places in the nation. Thus, If Mr.. Je,
rome never serves in any public posi-.
ton but the New York district attor-
ncvship, he is, nevertheless, a mark
ed man before the nation"
