here Mr.. Hopkins gave out the follow
ing interview on the political situation
from a western viewpoint:
1T is highly interesting to observe
the attack of the machine politicians
upon Gov. Stubs. In their frantic efforts
to befog the minds of the people they
charge him with most everything I'M
der the sun. By the most glazing mis-
representations in regard to state taxes
they are trying to divert the attention
of the people from the real question at
issue They are making tremendous
noise and kicking up a big dust at one
end of the pavilion with the hope Of
being able to get away with the swag
at the other end.
tom Wagstaff, in my opinion, is rot
a candidate for governor in good faith.
1t is trick of the politicians lined up
with certain interests to make a fight
upon Governor Stubs under the cover
of which they hope to be able to elect u
legislature antagonistic to the governor
and the interests of the people of Kan
sas and to return to Washington GER

German Stage Slaves.

In parliamentary session at Berlin
the actresses of Germany have re-
solved that they are slaves. They ask
a paternal government to set them free
by means of laws directed at the man

Griefs peculiar perhaps to German
players are that actresses must fur

cost exceeding their income and that
they are discharged if they marry Be

estates than are the, music hall maids
of Britain, and having no resources, al

generation. the second of these condi-
tons acts frequently as a sentence to

ELLIS DOWN AND OUT
Kansas Negro in Liberia Gives Way to
Ohio Man.

Washington. May 12.-George W. Ell
lis, colored, of Lawrence. Kan, who
has held the office of secretary of the
United States legation at Monrovia,
Liberia, for the past eight years, has
lost his job, and viii shortly return to
Kansas.
Mr. Ellis was appointed 10 the posi-
ton by President Roosevelt in 1902 upon
the recommendation of Senator ]. Ralph
Burton and Congressman Justin D.
Bowersock. HIS salary was $1,000 a
year.
The secretaryship of the Liberian le-
cation was recently filed by an Ohio
negro. The only reason given for Ell
lis resignation is that he was thought
to have held the office long enough, and
that the honor should be passed to an
other, one to whom the present admin
istration was under obligation.
There was no effort on the part Of
the Kansas delegation in congress to
continue Mr.. Ellis in the office, nor
was there any effort made on his part
to remain.
Bills have passed both houses of con-
gress granting increased pensions 20
five old soldiers of Kansas who served
III the civil war and who are totally
incapacitated for the performance of
manual labor. They are: Francis NJ.
Richards of Seneca, who will hereafter
receive the sum of $50 a month; Will
lam Anderson of Quenemo, $24; Alex
andder Morrow of Ottawa, $50; Henry
A. James of ElDorado, $24; and Thos.
Mcdonald, $50.
A rule for the consideration of bill
introduced by Congressman Charles F.
Scott of Kansas, forbidding dealings in
futures on the cotton exchanges. may
be reported out of the house commit
tee on rules tomorrow.
A bill has been favorably reported in
the senate for the purchase of a site
and erection of a federal building at
Chanute, Kan.
