RYAN SAYS LINE UP.
Tells Democratic Legislators Not to
Vote for Republican Senator.

II the Democratic members Of the
legislature are inclined to follow the
wishes and opinions of w H Ryan,
chairman OF the Democratic state cen
trail committee. Col. W. A. Harris. the
Democratic candidate for governor at
the recent election, will be the caucus
nominee of the Democrats for United
States senator. Mr.. Ryan believes that
the Democratic legislators will vote as
q unit for a Democrat for the United
States senatorship. although the vote
Will be in the nature of a compliment
tary one. He does not see any reason
why any Democrat or any number OF
them should turn their votes over to
any of the Republican candidates and
he thinks that their votes should be
given to Col Harris
Mr. Ryan is in the city today for the
purpose Of making arrangements to
keep the headquarters of the Demo-
cratic State Central committee at the
Hotel Throop open during the session
of the legislature as a meeting place
for the Democrats of that body He
had a conference with W. II. Kemper,
the treasurer of the committee, on this
subject this morning and it was decid-
ed by them to have comm odious head
quarters open at the Throop during the
session He also talked over with sew
eral OF the Democrats in town the pre-
liminary arrangements for the banquet
of the Kansas Democratic club which
will be held here some time in Feb
ruary.
1T seems to me-" said Mr. Ryan,
that it would be courteous appre-
citation of his efforts for the Democrat
ic cause in this state for the Democrat
ic members Of the legislature to ten
der Col Harris their vote for United
States senator. I have talked with
none of them about the matter. 1t is
just my idea that this is the proper
thing for them to do. 1 know of no
reason why any of the Democrats
should vote for a Republican and any
honor that the Democrats could be-
stow on Col. Harris is due him. have
heard nothing of an effort being ma de
by Col. William F Sapp to become the
caucus nominee Of the Democrats for
the United States senatorship."
