That County Wants Chance at
State Offices.
Mr.. Fitzgerald, Who Put Away

RYANOF LEAVENWORTH

1t has been generally assumed by
the politicians that T. A. McNeal, of
Topeka, the present state printer, has
practically a sure thing in his chance
of denomination for a second term
The indications are, however, that Nc
Neal will be forced to make a fight for
the control of the Shawnee county del
egation, without which ne would not
have the united support Of the First
district.
McNeal viii in all probability have
to fight it out with Albert Newman,
6hawnee's excellent county clerk, who
wants to be state printer, though there
IS a disposition not to charge Mr..
McNeal up to Shawnee, on the theory
that he is entitled to a second term
and was elected by the legislature for
the first
What will happen TO Judge j. S.
West remains to be seen. West is not
doing any talking about his candidacy
Aor attorney general and the prOba-
bllity is that he is figuring on getting
into the game at the state convention
as the especial candidate of no par
ticular district. Judge West lived at
Fort Scott and Kansas City a long time
before coming to Topeka, and he fig
ures on getting lot of Second district
support. The First district is also
likely to support him, but it is hard
to figure out a way by which he can
get the official endorsement of the dis
b trict.
Leavenworth county will probably
insist upon naming one of the candi-
dates for First district support, and it
VIII have to choose between w. r.
Ryan who wants to be secretary of
state, and H. NJ. Cory, the Leaven-
worth aspirant for the job OF railroad
commissioner.
So far as heard from up to this time
there are no candidates from other
parts of the district II there are
there will have to be some more iron
ing out, for it viii be hard for the dis
trict to do much for more than two
candidates, with the exception Of
Judge West who as has been stated
seems to be figuring on coming into
the game as sort of a compromise can
didate, endorsed by no particular dis
trict. If West concludes to ask for the
unqualified support of Shawnee coun.
ty, it would make a triangular fight be.

TURN OF THE SCREW.
Packers Are Forcing Up the Price of
Shoes and Leather.

Chicago, oct. 21.-As a result of the
present condition of the leather mar
ket buyers of shoes will be forced to
pay the retailers from so cents to 81
more for each pair of shoes than the
usual prices, according to the state
ments Of shoe men who keep in touch
with the market. The unreserved
statement is made that hides used in
boot and shoe making are bringing
higher prices now than ever before in
the Industrial history of the country.
Various causes are named as respon-
sible for the condition Of affairs, but
all agree that the desire for larger
profits on the part of the packers, who
control the leather market, furnishes
the only reasonable excuse nor the adj
vance.

governor who can beat AnseI r.
Clark. the recognized candidate of the
Stubbs-Hoch element.
w. J. Fitzgerald of Dodge City is
one of the people who is being urged
to make the race against Clark. Fred
Dumont Smith was commissioned am
bassador to carry the glad udings to
Mr.. Fitzgerald. He took Mr.. Bitz-
gerald up into a high mountain, and
showed him all the glories of the
landscape; the possibilities Of Hoch's
election to the United States senate,
and the opening for the lieutenant
governor to step into his place. He
was told that it was of the utm lost
importance that the Burton crowd
should retain control Of the senate. by
which house legislation might be
blocked, if desired. The necessity of
having the right man as presiding Of
ncer, to name the committees, was
explained to him.
And after it was all over, the report
is that Fitzgerald told the tempter to
get hence. He didn't want any lieu
tenant governor business in his.
So the selection of a man to fight
Clark for the nomination has been
again hung up. But it is only tenn
porary delay Some one will be
brought out. and it will be a man who
win be strong enough to get sub
stantial support.
incidentally, Fred Dumont Smith is
taking a little sideways shot at Judge
CIarks candidacy in the following
statement:
TT doesn't matter much to me be-
cause I am not d candidate for semi
tor. But those who are should dag
nose the case. If Stubs controls the
house, and Judge Clark controls the
senate, how easy it would be to swing
things in Stubbs' interest for senator.
Clark would appoint all the commit
tees in the senate. That would en-
able him to bring all interests into the
Stubs senatorial camp. Clark is a
good man, but If I were running for
senator I would look with suspicion
upon his candidacy for lieutenant
dates for senator will take that view.
If they do, there may be another cam
didate for lieutenant governor in the
field before long"
