TOPEKA, Kas., Aug. 3.-The visit of
Speaker Cannon of the house of rep
resentatives to Kansas during the re-
cent primary campaign utterly failed
to stem the insurgent tide, if complete
returns on todays primary election
bear out returns received up to /
o'clock this morning.
The indications are that Kansas will
have six insurgent congressman in the
next congress instead of two, as in the
last session.
There seems to be no doubt of the
nomination of r. r. Rees, insurgent,
in the fifth district. This means the
defeat of W. A. Calderhead, called by
Speaker Cannon "the dean of the KAN
sas delegation"
The other regular whose defeat is
considered sure is J. M. Miller of the
Fourth district, who has apparently
lost to his insurgent opponent, Fred
Jackson, by a big majority.
r. A. McNeal is claiming victory in
the First district over d. r. Anthony,
and the insurgents assert they have
elected A. C. Mitchell in the Second
district over C. f. Scott.
CAMPBELL RENOAIINATED

J. N. Dolley, chairman of the Repub-

claims Stubs nomination by 10000 J.
ID. Cramer, assistant manager of the
Wagstaff campaign. has dropped his
claim of majority from 5000 to 2500.

TOPEKA, Kas., Aug. AT midnight
indications pointed to a decided insur-
gent gain in Kansas. The nomination
of Governor w. r. Stubs, who linked
his fortunes with those of the insur-
gent candidates for congress, is prac-
tically assured. Running close to him
is r. ]. Hopkins, insurgent candidate
for lieutenant governor.
The outcome in the First congress
sional district fight is still in doubt,
with the friends of both DR.. Anthony,
stand-patter, incumbent, and of T. A.
McNeal, insurgent, claiming a ma
jority.
Practically no returns have come in
from the Second district, the meager
reports placing c. A. Mitchell, insur-
gent, in the lead.
In the Third district P. P. Campbell,
incumbent, is running ahead of Arthur
Cranston, insurgent, and the indica-
tions are that he will be renominated.
In the Fourth the insurgents have
scored decided victory by electing
Fred Jackson and defeating j. M. Mil
Ter, stand-patter.
In the Fifth claims are made on very
meager returns that r. r. Rees insur-
gent, has defeated w. A. Calderhead,
stand-patter, incumbent. The outcome
in his district is still in doubt.
In the sixth the result is in doubt
In the seventh e. II. Madison. in
surgent, is nominated WITHOUT opposi-
ton, and in the eighth Victor Murdoch
is nominated, also without opposition
from the standpatters.
C.. H: Sesson was nominated for state
treasurer without opposition, as was
John S. Dawson for attorney general.
Great interest was manifested
throughout the country in the result
of the primary, which was the first
real test between the insurgent con-
gressmen and the standpatters. The
regulars were attacked all along the
line by Govern,r Stubbs, Senator Bris-
tow Senator Cummins and Congress-
man Murdock The fighting practical
Iy has been all on the Republican side,
the issues being the tariff, the rubber
schedule of that law and Speaker Cam
