Western Kansas cattlemen, re-
CARELESS of political affiliations, feel
mighty friendly to Gov. Stubbs.
When he entered Office a large sect
ion of western Kansas was under
quarantine for the cattle mango. He
directed his live stock commissions r
to take steps Immediately to clean
up the mango there and lift the
quarantine. The work was pushed
with great energy and as a result
nearly all that country is out OF
quarantine. This means much in
dollars and cents to the cattlemen
out there, as their cattle now com :
mand higher prices.
