WICHITA, Kan, Aug, 3.-Victor Muir
dock, the insurgent leader in congress- sale
to the Associated Press today:
THE slgnificance OF the overwhelming
insurgent victory in Kansas is twofold.
FIRST, 1t IS a complete reputation OF Ootl
Cannon ard the system by which he ha
robbed the peo..le of free government IL
the house. Scott Miller and Reeder wer
chairmen of important house committees
while Calderhead was the ways ant
means committee All were beaten becaus
they subscribed to the Cannon system.
Second, the Kansas insurgents victory {
an effort by the republicans of Kansas t
say with emphasis TO the nation that In
republican party of Kansas stands for i'm
mediate and effective legislation framed t
drive speciai and selfish interests out o
control An American politics."
