would not even agree to speak at all
unless Governor Hoch stayed away
from the meeting while he, Harris,
made his speech.
Governor Hoch arrived shortly after
noon. He was met by committee at
the depot and escorted to a hotel. Col
onel Harris had arrived earlier and
notified the Democratic committee
that he would not participate in de-
bate under any circumstances. He said
that he and Hoch would make non
political speeches. When told that it
had been extensively advertised that
politics were to be discussed, he said
some arrangement would have to be
made to eliminate the debate feature,
or he would take the first train out
of town without making any speech at
all. The Democratic committee car
ried the message to the Republican
committee. When Governor Hoch
reached the hall the situation was ex-
planned to him.

said the Governor, land l am here to

The Republican committee carried
the Governors message to the Demo-
cratic committee. Colonel Harris was
implored by his Democratic friends
to face the music, but he would not
do it. He was finally prevailed upon
to divide time with the Governor,
eliminating the debate feature.

W. A. Harris, the e1-rebel colonel,

Ing Editorial Advising Support Of

William Allen White of the Emporia
Gazette has given some mighty good
advice to Republicans. He advises
Republicans to vote the straight Re
publican ticket in the following strong
editorial printed in his paper:
THAT looks fine on paper 1t works out
beautifully as theory. There is not a
flaw in the scheme. But the hard I'M
comfortable facts are that when the DEM
state or in the nation, it does not enforce
the laws; it does not give the people pur-
er politics, and instead Of these things It
gives them confusion, pickering and
trouble. The Democratic party in Kan

gins to quarrel A Democratic admins
tration in Kansas would set the state
clock back dozen years. Harris might
well-but he would have to fight the
hungry horde of office seekers who would
want to turn the state upside down to get
at the crib. He would be able to do little
or nothing. The Democratic party as a
party offers little hope for Kansas and
while here and there a Democratic candi-

just such a bill as the railroad companies

Die them to escape a reimbursement of
rates which the state legislature ought to
force them to make in the interests of the
people of Kansas. There is no proof that
corrupt methods were used to force the
bill through the legislature. and yet IT is
difficult to attribute its passage to pure
stupidity, for Senator Harris is far from
being a duh man"
In 1897 the Star was against anti
pass legislation, as the following edi-
torial in that paper on January 16, of
that year shows:

ceptance and using of railroad passes

companies could have no earthly objection
to relief from the gratuitous labor of
legislative officials. their wives. children,
relatives friends and acquaintance.
When legislator introduces a bill to
control any power which the "power''
might ardently pray for there is a strong
presumption that the measure is a make
believe and a humbug. a conscientious
ODJeCtlOn 10 the use or passes would most
naturally display itself in a refusal to ac-
cept them, which none of these corpora
ton reforming statesmen have done up
to date. The discontinuance of passes is
not expected. The passage and enforce

Off the passes would probably be followed
by the introduction Of another at the next

"The only time that Senator Harris
has ever had the opportunity to make
a railroad record so far as state af-
fairs are concerned was. in that SEES
sion of 1897 and the Stars editorials
quoted above show where he stood.
The people of Kansas will no doubt
take the Stars utterances against Har

to its utterances concerning his prom

then, wouldn't he be. apt to do it
