An Open Letter..

To the people of Cherokee

would like to, on account of my
school work, as a candidate for
county superintendent / take this
method of reaching you.
was born in this county thirty
years ago and have made it my
home since that time. / hold a
professional certificate and have
credit for one hundred and twen-
ty weeks work in the Pittsburg
Normal. l was raised on farm
and have taught in the rural, vii
lage and city schools this being
my ninth year as teacher and
third year as principal in the Ga
lena schools. Educational affairs
should be divorced from politics
and if elected superintendent l
shall conduct the affairs of that
Office without partisauship or fa-
voritism. Most of us realize that
with our schools classified and
graded as they now are the pupil
is able to work to a better adj
vantage and with less waste of
time than under the old system,
where he was required to do the
same work over and over; but we
also realize that some of the
schools do not have all OF the
grades, that the enrolment varies
from fifteen to fifty and that the
local conditions are such that no
one program can be made that
will fit the needs of all the schools
of the county. / believe that the
teacher who has education judg-
ment enough to teach and govern
a school is capable of making a
program and should at least have
the privilege of adopting the pro-
gram to the school in which it is
to be used. Very few of the city
schools, which are more closely
supervised than the district
schools can be, use a uniform
program and why should it be:
done in the district schools?
The schools are maintained for
the boys and girls and should be
adapted to their needs.
Asking the voters to consider
the fitness of the respective can
didates and vote for the best in :
terests of the county.
l am yours respectfully,
E. E. SToNEcIPHER.

ST. John for Hodges

Governor Stubs and the Re-
publican State Committee of Kan
sas, in uncovering the old buga-
boo that the brewers and inter-
ests" were seeking to overthrow
prohibition, stirred up the liveli-
est prohibition wire in the West,
in the person of former Governor
John p. st. John, of Olathe.
Governor st. John who stands as
the leading exponent of prOhibi-
ton In Kansas and the nation,
was twice elected Governor and
was once candidate for President
on the prohibition ticket, and a
third of a century ago iuaugur-
ated the movement that crystal
lized that question into the stat
utes and the constitution of the
State, Governor St. John does not
say that while the people of Kan
sas were fighting the rum power
and crystalizing prohibition into
law, that Governor Stubs, then
Ia railroad contractor was per-
hitting saloons to be run in con-
uection with his grading camps,
but there are hundreds of other
Kansans who do so declare, and
who have promised the proof if
Stubs denies the charge.
Yes, ! have read Governor
Stubs speech at the Christian
church convention at Topeka, re.
Gently, in which he appeals to all
Christian men to combine to pre-
vent the overthrow of prohibition
in Kansas" Governor St. John
said today. Il have noted also
his speeches made in Colorado,
Illinois and Missouri, in all of
which there was more politics
than religious fervor, and much
more buncombe and personal poll
itical desire, than prohibition
zeal.
Governor Stubs has frequent
ly declared within the past year
that the liquor traffic in Kansas
is dead. And now he shows the
white feather by shaking the
dry bones of its skeleton in the
faces of the people, with the pur-
pose of soaring them into voting
for him. This same old scare
crow has been used atevery State
election in Kansas for the past
dozen years. When the Govern
or said within the last year that
the liquor traffic in Kansas was
dead, he told the truth. But now
when he faces defeat, he tries to
impress the people that his de-
feat would mean the overthrow
of prohibition.
This is a good time for the
sane, sensible, temperance men of
Kansas to take an accounting of
history. Where was Governor
Stubs and what was he doing
when you were crystalizing pro-
hibition into the laws and con-
Stitution of the state? During
the past thirty years fight for
prohibition in Kansas / never
heard of Governor Stubs taking
any part in the matter, until very
recently when he thought this
old scarecrow might save him
from defeat, even to the extent
of voting for the constitutional
amendment, although he was a
citizen and a legal voter at that
time. The truth is, there is no
more chance of going back to the
old dram shop system in Kansas
than there is for a restoration of
African slavery in Missouri. Pro-
hibition sentiment is becoming
more unanimous every day. If
the question of the old license
system or prohibition were sub
mitted to the people. prohibition
would be sustained by a majority
of 200, OOO."
Olathe is the home of Senator
