Past political affiliations were forgotten when the resolution was passed. In the legisla- ture were some who had belonged to the party which was organized to re- tire him from public life. They Joined his old friends and supporters in pre- serving his stately and imposing figure in the capitol of the nation and today Kansas will be gratified to know what while the voice of John J.
