new C0BURN BOOM.
Indiana Paper Proposes Him as Can
didate for President.

Coburn for president of the United
States!
That is the very latest idea, and it
comes from Indiana. which state Is
supposed to have q candidate of its
own in the person of Charles Warren
Fairbanks.
The author of the Coburn for presi-
dent boom Is the Indiana Farmer, a
paper published at Indianapolis. In
the last issue of this paper appears the
following editorial.
why does not some one nominate
F. d. COburn of the Kansas state board
Of agriculture for the presidential can
didate in 1902 He doesn't want to be
United States senator, for he does not
like politics, and as senator he might
be called upon to do things that his
conscience would not endorse; besides,
he likes to work for the good of the
farming interest But as a presidential
candidate he need not SInirch him
self in the dirty political pool; he
would not be expected to electioneer
for himself; and if elected, as he most
likely would be. ne would be in posi-
ton to prevent the senators and con-
gressmen from doing what his con
science does not approve While ne
could do almost anything he pleased
to aid the farmers. those of his beloved
state of Kansas included
There are many men who will be
talked of as nominees that will be far
have all the agricultural papers to
help him. and all the farmer vote rs
sured, his prospects would be as hope
full as could be desired. If he should
say. as no doubt he would, that he does
not want any political office, not even
the highest. it would De one Of very
strongest reasons he could give why
the people should insist upon placing
him there. They would like, for once,
to force their highest honor upon a
man so competent and worthy. who
never dreamed of such a position nor
desired or much less sought it.
The Indiana Farmer has taken ad-
vantage of Mr.. Coburn's absence
upon his vacation trip TO get him into
the presidential race, and no doubt
Mr.. Coburn viii promptly squelch the
boom as soon as he hears of it, AT
present he is supposed to be goins
from St. Louis to Minneapolis in a
steamboa though when he left To-
peka, he did not indicate his destina-
ton.
Mr. Coburns health was one of the
things which led him to decline the
office of United States senator. and OF
course bad health would be one Of the
strongest reasons which could be adj
vanced why he would not consider
favorably the mention of his name as q
presidential possibility.
