AT HOME TO STAY
Ex-senator John Martin Re-
turns 10 Topeka.

a Year.

81 like the south. It is a charming
country to visit.
Is it as good a country as Kansas?
I am constantly being asked. No. I
answer; there is no country en- earth
quite SO good as Kansas"
The temperance this week upon the
streets of Topeka OF former United
States Senator John Martin, after an
absence of more than a year, spent
amid the scenes of his boyhood and in
visiting points of historic interest south
of Mason and Dixon's line, was accom-
panied by the rumor that he contem-
plated removing his residence back to
the Sunf1ower state. His stay had been
so prolonged that the impression quite
generally obtained that he had trans
ferred his allegiance to the sunny
southland, the region of his nativity
and the home of his daughter and of
relatives and friends whose name is
legion. This Is emphatically denied by
the senator.
