The WAGSTAFF TOUR.
His Managers Well Pleased With Last
Weeks Work.

Following is the report of the Wag-
staff tour last week given out at his
headquarters in Topeka:
tom Wagstaff last week made
speeches in four cities that had been
visited by Governor Stubs only few
days previously, Washington, Marys-
vile, Hiawatha and Troy. That Wag-
staff made much the better impression
at each place is verified by the fact that
after his meetings he was in each of
the four towns congratulated by men
who had been inclined to support Gov
ernor Stubs but had either been driv-
en- away by the governors own speech
or won by that of his opponent.
Both candidates talked to large
crowds at each of the four towns, but
at each Wagstaff addressed the larger
number of Republican voters At each
place Wagstaff waded straight into
the tax controversy, giving the voters
facts and figures uncovering the ex-
travagance of the Stubs adminiStra-
ton. Wagstaff's speech is not an ora
torical effort at all. 1t is just COM
mon sense discussion of business af-
fairs of the state and he goes into the
details of the governors extravaganza
in the handling of the expenses of his
own office, the penitentiary, and other
departments that are under the con-
troll of his close political friends.
AT Washington, Marysville, Hia-
watha and Troy, he made direct reply
to Governor Stubs challenge that he
be specific and definite in his charges
of extravaganza, not only as to what
Governor Stubs has done, but what

NO p. A.Y. E. AT CHURCH
The Pope Abolishes the Custom OF
Collecting at the Door.

New York, June 13.-The latest re-
form document of Pope Plus x as in
terpreted in the Ecclesiastical Review,
tfe official organ of the clergy in this
country, will do away with the practice
of collecting a fee at church doors at
services, which now prevails in this
and other countries. The custom has
been condemned from time to time by
the laity of America, but has not been
abolished because it was realized that
in many parishes there were persons
who shirked their part of the respon-
sibiliFty for the support OF their
churches.
In his latest document, the pope says
this collection Savors too much of the
demanding of money at place of
amusement and therefore is not becom-
dng of the church. The papal document
also requires of the bishops state
rnent of the exact use made Of the mon
ey so collected.
The bulletin also makes it obligatory
Upon the bishop to make full reports of
the conditions OF things, both temporal
ard spiritual in their diOceSes. They
must define gcogra phically and nation
ally their jurisdictions. In addition,
they must make reports of the conduct
OF every priest of his sources of in
come and the use he makes of per-
o1isites. The bisflop must answer this
question concerning the priests of the
diocese:
Are there any methods which give
rise to complaints on account of exorb-
liant fees demanded at funerals and
MARRIAGES, or or account of the rigor
with which such fees are exacted''
The pope, through the Sacred congre-
cation, has demanded a full report of
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1910-06-13

he proposes to do. And at each place
voters told Wagstaff after he had fin
ished speaking that he had thrown
light on matters that the governor
had failed to explain and that they
proposed to support him.
"At Washington the chairman of
the Wagstaft meeting was a Repub-
lican who had been turned by Stubs
own speech. At Marysville Hold Lath-
rop of Blue Rapids. said that he was
inclined to support Stubs until he
heard him speak. Since I have heard
Wagstaff, he added, there is no doubt
in my mind what the result of this
campaign is to be. Wagstaff makes
his case against Stubbs.'
AT Barnes in Washington coun-
ty Wagstaff addressed one of the most
enthusiastic meetings of the week. all
though not the largest In Barnes it
is said that there are only four Re-
publicans who are for Stubs. In Lit
tie Blue township, just adjoining
Barnes the Republicans are unani-
nous for Wagstaff.
"Wagstaff's visit to Troy on Satur-
have figured that Stubs has a, big fol-
lowing in Doniphan county. Stubs
spoke there to a crowd entirely made
up of residents of Troy. Wagstaff's
tire county, there being delegations
present from Severance, Denton and
Highland as we'll as farmers from all
parts of the county. The crowd filled
the Leland opera house to it's capacity
and overlooked into the hall 1t was
an enthusiastic Wagstaf crowd too
and it was largely composed of earnest
friends of Cyrus Leland who propose
to be found opposing Stubs regard
less of Mr.. Leland's position.
For instance, J. J. Barker, who has
been one of Lelands closest political
friends for more than 80 years, called
the meeting to order. Ed Henry of
Severance, another staunch Republican
who has for years fought the Doni-
phan county independents who COM
pose the nucleus of Stubs following
in the county, was selected as chair
man of the meeting.
1T was noticeable that practically
every Republican in the county who
has been active in politics is outspoken
for Wagstaff. D. Winsdor, a farmer
living south of Troy, reported that
Stubs sent his petitions for that coun-
ty to a Democrat who was unable to
secure the required number of signers.
A dozen or more old soldiers, and Doni-
phan county is a strong old soldier
county, expressed themselves as uu-
able to support Governor Stubs afte-
hearing his speech which they did not
regard as Republican in tone or spirit.
No less than so men who have hereto
fore worked with Leland politically
stated emphatically that Stubs has
absolutely no chance to carry Doni-
phan county"
