BOOST FOR SCOTT.
PIeasanton Paper Thinks That He
Should Be Governor.

During the lull between the election
and the beginning of the session OF the
legislature the politicians and news
papers were busy naming candidates
for governor to succeed the present
executive when his second term of Of
flee should expire. J. n. Dolley, A.
NJ Harvey and Congressman Murdoch
and Madison were talked of by the
insurgents and j. NJ. Nation and {. Il.
Denton by the regulars. Congressman
Scott was also mentioned and Charhe
Barnes started boom for the Usage
Miller. Now comes a country paper
the Pleasanton Observer. printed IN
Mr.. SCOTS district, and in the 1ol-
lowing tribute offers him tn, guberna-
torial nomination:
lone of the best speeches in con-
gress last week on the pension bill was
delivered by Congressman Charles F.
Scott 1t was to the point and strong
in reasoning and patriotism Scott Is
one of the leading men in the national
congress and his counsel and ability
and wisdom will be missed when he
retires on March 4. However, Charlie
Scott is too able and valuable man
to remain retired and 1T will not be
long before the people of Kansas Will
be asking him to again assume some
important responsibility in the man
agement of state or national affairs.
There is not man in Kansas who
would make a better governor than
Charlie Scott.
And when one gives the matter due
consideration he is especially fitted for
the place. The Observer does not
know whether he ever thought of such
a thing or whether the Republicans
would be willing to give him that re-
sponsibility. but if he should ever be
placed in charge of the state of Kan
sas as governor we would have an ex-
ecutive who would measure up to the
highest standard of governors of any
state He has made a speciality of ag-
riculture for several years and is prob
ably the best posted man on this sub
iect in the state. unless it be Coburn,
and even the latter would probably not
be as we'll acquainted with legislation
concerning the subject. Being COLI
lege man he would also be we'll fitted
to be in sympathy with all the educa-
tional institutions. Having Travelled
far and wide and made numerous in
vestigations of other countries in agri-
cultural anC business affairs, he would
he especially equipped to recommend
the best in all departm ents.
PERSONALLY, Scott is a fine specimen
of the best class of public men, clean.
able strong and fully qualified in
every way. 1t would be hard to find
a better nan for governor of Kansas

 In her estimation only William wrote the plays he is given credit for and the fact that he coined five thousand new words into the English language was a clnch To one Of her strong argu- ments as to whether he or Bacon wrote certain master pieces.
 After the lecture which was greatly appreciated by all Shakespeare loving students pesent, the ladies in turn in vited the men to view a number of photos of eminent men hung up here and there about the hall The men were invited to tell their fair compan- ions what they knew and didn't know about the men whose pictures were on display and the one receiving the greater number of votes as the one who proved the most entertaining received a copy. or set, Of volumes of Shakes peare Complete Works.
 William McManus walked or with the prize. and whether he really knew about the people he was talking about is still an open question, for the fair companions were handicapped in that respect, but they nil were convinced he was good story teller.
