j. N. Dolley, chairman of the Stubbs
campaign, said today. speaking of the
victory: 1T was a victory for clean
politics. The governor stands for what
is fair and right and decent in public
life and he has been endorsed by his
people. The other fellows cannot ex-
pect to win by the old methods. They
cannot seem to learn that the old order
changeth. 1t was a great triumph and
am more pleased with the outcome
than l can tell. My estimate of $4,000
for Stubbs was too conservative, but
had rather be conservative. No living
man can tell about politics until the
votes are counted. I always made my
claims low and then raise them the
morning after. 1t is a safe and salts
factory plan.''
1T looks to me like a landslide for
Stubbs,'' said Joe Kramer, secretary OF
the WaEstaff committee this morning.

the county clerks office was thronged
with eager inquirers the bulk of whom

been cleared away, barring the uncer-

candidate for the legislature in the
city district where James Gibbon had
a 200 majority over A A. Graham on
partial return of the vote. Three
precincts of the Third ward yet re-

Last evening it appeared that Wag-
staff would carry the county, as he
obtained a strong lead in the city dur
ng the earlier counting. This morning
upset that and showed a majority for
Stubbs. Interest in the McNeal-An-

came manifest that McNeal's home

jority.

Attorney.
1t was a tired looking lot of men who
sat in th, county clerks office this
afternoon, waiting for the last of the
returns to come in. County Clerk Zim-
norman, happy over the securing of a
denomination for which he had made a
hard campaign, sat at his desk with
dropping eyelids for he had been up all
night after a days hard work during
TIE primaries. Frank Wells and Gull
lom Magill two of his deputies. were
equally as tired. but just as happy,
while Winner and Campbell. the two
remaining members of the force, had
sought much needed rest in bed.
None of the candidates who had
hard fights went to bed and Matt
Weightman and John Wright, who
had opposed each other for county
treasurer sat side by side waiting for
more returns, until the last doubt had
been cleared away. Weightman went
home then for some sleep while
Wright. after a breif rest, went back
to his duties as deputy county treas

nomination of Judge E. r. Simon

on the strength cf the votes counted up
10 z o'clock this morning.
AS the day wore on the reports
from over the state increased the
StuoDs totals. 1t looks now as though
tne governor would have over $4,000
majority. Incomplete returns from
rlfty-five counties give Stubbs a ma
Jority over Wagstaff of 10000 with the
strong Stubs counties in the west vet
to hear from. Chairman Dolley
thought at noon that Stubbs would
have over 10000. They are not
through counting in many of the coun-
tles and the returns come in slowly.
The further they go the more they
favor Stubs.

Stubs has likely carried Mont
gomery county and Labette and has a
all supposedly Wagstaff strongholds in
the Third district. The governor has
carried every district in the state ex-
cept the First, and it is very close here
with a chance for it to slip into the
Stubbs column. On the face of the
returns so far received Wagstaff is
sure of only four counties in the state,

Doniphan. the latter by very small
majority. In the face of a harder fight
than he had two years ago, with his
first term behind him as a record,
the governor is stronger in Kansas to-
day than ever before.
Kansas will have six out of eight
congressman on the insurSent side of
the next house instead of two out of
eight, as in the past. One United
States senator will be insurgent and
one will stand pat.
The campaign just closed was re-
markable. Eight speakers of ability
stumped the state against Stubbs and

The public should not hastily that Secretary

side but backened the other the committee standing

administration did not dare to do it.
