GOV. sruBBs, FREAK LETTER
Missouri Man Says There Must Be
No More Elections in Kansas.

No More Elections in Kansas.
Governor Stubs today received a
freak letter. from a man in Missouri
who issues therein an ultimatum that
there shall be no more elections in
the present state officials continued
in office until relieved by death. He
also asserts that his name was at one
time on the gold coins in the Phila-
delphia and San Francisco minis and
that when it was taken off (referring
doubtless to the elimination of the
motto "in God we trust'D that Phil
adelphia suffered from an electric
storm and Frisco an earthquake. He
declares that the governor will now
be able to test the sincerity of this
letter from the fact that thunder and
lightning will cause Topeka to tremble
at the time the letter is received here.
The following is the text and style
of this rather remarkable letter:
