TOPEKA, Kan, May 2-The Kansas
state republican convention today nomi-
mated the above ticket.
The so-caled machine slate, supported
by the present state administration, was
successful over the reform faction led by
w. r. Stubbs.
The Resolutions.
The resolutions reaffirm the partys pride
''in the history and achievements of the
principles" They continue:
The wisdom of It's financial policy so
fiercely antagonized Is now universally con-
ceded while it's protective policy provokes
controversy only between reviSionists ana
stand-patters. Under the magic OF these
wise principles the country has valuted to
the front rank among the nations IN
finance, in manufactures. in material & &de-
velopment and IN general prosperity, while
its wage-earners find remuneration twice
as great as under any other nag. The Wig.
orous, able and wise administration OF
President Roosevelt commands our enthusi-
astic approved as II has wone the plaudits
OF our countrymen regardless OF party.
We especially approve his demands for the
regula tion of railroad rates and commend
our senator and representatives in congress
for their support of this policy.
The resolutions demand the abolshment
| of free railway passes except to regular
employees
The platform continues:
We believe that platform promises are as
| sacred as business contracts and should be
! as faithfully fulfilled, and we point with
| pardonable pride to the redemption OF the
numerous promises made in our last state
| platform. Among the many wise enact.
ments of the last legislature we call special
| attention to the adoption Of the various en-
| actments in the interests of the oil pro
ducers which have already made possible
| the erection of eight independent refineries
laws which the being copied in other states
thus widening the benefit OF this beneticen'
policy and making certain the ultimate res
! toration of legitimate competition in the
| oil business; to the enactment of rail
| road law which has no equal on the statute
| books of any state and which is in advenct
! of anything congress Is being asked to en-
| act and to the enactment OF twelve ad
ditional and supplemental laws affectinl
4 the interests of passengers and shippers
making the most complete list OF laws OF
the railroad subject ever enacted by an!
/ one legislature.
We pledge ourselves to such amendment,
! to these enactments as time and expert
ence may demonstrate to be wise.
