The ST. Louis Republics prediction
that Botlxin will run ahead of Bryan in
Kansas will probably be questioned by
many good judges Of political condi-
lions.
Until recently, the Republican lead
ers have believed that Stubs would
run considerably ahead of Taft. The
Republicans think, however, that Taft
has gained much in Kansas since his
visit here, and that the probability is
now that Taft and Stubs will run very
close together. 1t does not seem likely
that in the general returns, Stubs will
be much behind Taft, though in To-
peka, Wichita and some of the larger
cities he may fall in the rear because
of the prejudice against him which has
been stirred up among the wet"
voters.

Roy Crawford, manager of the
Grand theater in this city. says that
the election of Bryan would be bad
thing for the show business.
IF Bryan should win," said Mr..
Crawford today, I'VE would have to
close up two of the theaters on the
Crawford circuit The depression in
business which would follow the de-
feat of Taft would make it impossible
to do a successful theatrical business"

Edwin s. Waterbury of Emporia
has called meeting of the candidates
on his independent ticket which he
nominated by means of petition
signed by $500 voters. to be held at
Emporia. October 20.
It is expected that the purpose of
this meeting is to pledge the president
tial electors to vote for Hisgen and
graves, the Hearst candidates for
president and vice president.
Up to the present time the Water
bury movement has been entirely an
independent" movement; now the
plan is to deliver over this movement
candidates and all. to the Indenen,
dence party. The following is the call
issued by Mr.. Waterbury:
''To the Independent State Candi-
dates:
1.-THE Independent ticket. which viii
be in the last printed column at rieht
hand of the official ballot. will stand
in this election for independent poll
tics uncontrolled by any political mar
ty whatever; and any voter who
wishes to make his vote a protest
against the party system and domin-
alton by any party will be able this
year for the first time to put his pro-
test in the ballot box.
"A moments reflection will shou,
that whenever, either at this or anv
future election, the number of indie.
pendent voters shall be enough n
constitute the balance of power be-
tween the two dominant parties. that
balance of power will be able to take
control of the political interests of the
state, and all other votes will he
practically thrown away.
'"These Independent candidates are
all good men. fairly representative OF
the average citizenship of the state
II 1t were not SO the partisan press
would have been swift to decry them
They stand, OF course, for the pro-
testing principles which ali respect
Nhls new parties. not revolutionary

have stood for in the last fifty years
and the fact of such ticket is IN
itself an antiparty platform without
any other platform, convention or
PRONUNCIATION of their principles.
1.-The public has naturally ana
properly understood that these can
didates stand for the principles OF the
Independence party, that being the
newest of the new parties, and en-
bodyilg all these well understood re-
form principles; and should this cleo
toral ticket carry the state 1t goes
without saying that the electors would
cast their votes for Hisgen and
Graves. 1 have received a formal
written agreement signed by several
of these independent candidates TO
this effect and more of them have ex-
plicitly stated the same to me.
"a prediction meeting of. these
candidates and formal PRONUNCIATION
of these principles would seem TO De
most called for in case of the strong
probability of their election, and L
hereby extend to them an invitation to
meet at Emporia, Kan, All CONNER

October %, to take such action, If
any. as they may deem necessary.
