Succeeded MT. Morse.

.I accepted the presidency of the bank temporarily with reluctance at the urg- ent request of prominent fnanciers last October, at that time when MT. Charles w. Morse retired as vice president. Dur ing the panic the bank lost over $10,0o0, 900 In deposits. Its deposits now amount to a little over s3000.000.
 T had hoped to get back a large number of our depositors and so rehab- iitate the bank, but the state of our cash reserves and the difficulty on our part of lending money to those who might have returned 1t to us, put it out of our power to offer them sufficient reason for resuming banking relations with us.
 '.1n my opinion the bank is perfectly solvent and there is every indication that stockholders will receive par for the stock with careful llQuidation.'

MY CASTLE IN SPAIN-By Kate M. Cleary

There are castles grand in England's land
From whose portfolios cape the jaws of cannon
There ruins all wreathed in green,
By the Observation-Disclosures the Shannon.
In Venice dim old palaces grim
Speak of the Doge's power and passion,
And in Austrian air, light poised and fair,
Are temples reared in royal fashion.
There towers of pride by the Amos side,
And high where the of the Rhine are darkling
And in vine clad France the suns gold glance
On the spires of old chateaux is sparkling.
But fairer far than these castles are,
In beauty majestic and far splendid,
Is that build when the sky is filled
With sunset hues, and my toll is ended!
Oh, my castle in Spain! Again and again
Have ! seen your battlements, times seven,
Whitley rise in the rosy skies.
And your gates gold the gates of heaven!

The castles that stand Ger many land
Ring to martial music and lighter measures,
And gathered between their walls, ween,
Are great rich stores of wonderful treasures.
Wrought in thread,-by fingers dead
For many year,-hang broideries olden,
And blades that have dipped in blood and dripped
Glory and blood, and goblets golden,
And fagons of wine, and pictures fine
And shining statues in courtyards shady
And jewels bright to bind the white
Brow and throat of beauteous lady!
But fairer far than these treasures are
Those behold in my palace cleaning
There's sweet face there, and sunny hair.
And love that is dearer than death or dreaming.
Oh! my castle in Spain again and again
Has faded away in the twilight tender;
But my longing eyes see it ever arise
In reckoning beauty,-eternal splendor'

STUBS, soLIoouY.

A Great Politician is studying Other
politicians, big and little, are busy try
ing to learn, too. VIII he switch or
stay hitched? Will he stand for COVER
nor, or run for senator? The lady or
the tiger? Which?
To be or not to be- Whether to be
grand mogul of the state or a king in
the United States senate and over the
state; aye: there's the rub. He doesn't
like the governors job, but has been
drafted toward it. and seems to have
the lead well ahead of the hounds for
this goal. He is wild to be senator;
would like to beat Long, and stands a
pretty good show for beating him If
he enters the list. That's the way 1t
looks.
Stubbs is surely considering and do
ing whole lot Of thinking.
To the public he says '1 am candi-
date for governor" That does not
necessarily mean much.
Stubbs Is between two fires, even in
his own ranks. One flank wants him to
stay where he is; another wants him
to try for the higher place. The To-
peka Capital, the Stubbs organ, is evil
IDENTIFY crazy for Stubbs to switch to the
senatorship. Dolley and Bent are urg-
ing him on in this direction; other
friends oppose.
The general impression is that
Stubbs in the end will yield and run
for the senatorship. At this writing
it is not safe to say what he will do.
Mr.. Stubbs himself probably does not
know.
If he switches he runs the risk of
being classed as a demagogue, mere
officeseeker, reformer for revenue; Z;
that is. revenue in place and honor.
If he switches he will give his ma
chine a great jolt in going over the
rails to the other track. There will
be a lot of loose motion, the wheels
Stubbs may think he can take up the
loose motion and win what he wants
by strenuous campaign. Stubbs'
withdrawal as governor would help
Bailey. Leland would think it would
help him. With no convention. no
trading and no ddckering he would
whack Long and Bailey. 1t would
give Tom McNeal a show, which is the
other part of the game now on the
chess board.
If Stubbs stays where he Is it will
help Bristow as a candidate for the
United States senate.
These are some surmises and
opinions.
1t is uD to Stubbs.

The night was far spent and the

what they wanted to hear on poll
tics.
They wanted to hear Bailey and
there were loud cries for him. They
wanted to hear Stubbs. They wanted
to hear Bristow. They wanted to
hear Leland. The lateness of the hour
prevented all this. At the close Of
Hoch.s speech no orator could have
held any body. They were deter

All Of this leads up to the friendly
suggestion that it would be a fine
thing If the managers of the Kansas
Day club would put a time limit Of
say five or ten minuets on the formal
speeches: let the speakers, who have
ample weeks for preparation, boil
down their stuff. put it into epigrams;
make everything count and drive
things home to an audience wakeful
and eager to listen. Then give the
prominent candidates for governor
and other offices a chance to turn
loose and talk about the things the
politicians wish to hear.
It will add to the interest and to the
gaiety Of nations.
