STUBS TO SCOTT.
Says He Has No Right to Decide Who
Will Stay With Party.

Under the heading, THE Case of Mr..
Stubbs.'' the lola Register, published
by Charles F. Scott, has the following
editorial:
Governor Stubs is quoted in the
morning papers as declaring himself
for Roosevelt for president and claim
ing that Roosevelt is entitled to nine
OF the Kansas electors, the two at large
and the seven in the districts carried
by Roosevelt in the primary.
When asked if he would file for
United States Senator as a Republican
candidate he replied with a laugh that
he certainly wouldn't file any other
way
Which last statement taken in con-
nection with the first one. can only
mean if he is an honest and honorable
man. that he will not file at all.
The governor says that he advised
against a bolt, and yet he acknowledges
that he has bolted when he declares
that he is for Roosevelt and not for the
candidate of the Republican party.
Col. Roosevelt himself has finally
done the square and manly thing. He
has declared that he will organize a
new party from the ground up. He
has abandoned the dishonest and dis
honorable StubbS idea of trying to be
a Republican in one state and an In
dependent Progressive in another, and
will set himself to build a new party
in all the states. Those who propose
to follow him, therefore, must follow
him into that new party.
mo man can be for Roosevelt and
remain in the Republican party
IF Mr.. Stubs is for Roosevelt for
president, according to Roosevelt him
self he cannot be a Republican. And
if he is not a Republican he cannot
honOrably place his name on the Re
publican ticket as candidate for SEN
ator, any more than Judge Thompson
could or Hugh Farrelly. 1t is the part
ing of the ways for Mr.. Stubbs''
When Governor Stubs was shown
this editorial today he said: 'tMr. Scott
takes a good deal on himself, doesn't
he? He abrogates to himself the pow
ers of a court of last resort. Where
does he get the authority to decide
who shall and who shall not stay in
the party or constitute that party? I
take the position that Taft is not the
regular nominee of the Republican
party, but that Roosevelt is the real
nominee of that party. Taft was nomi-
mated with fraud. He did not have
the legal votes in the convention and
he did not have the votes of the peo-
pie. Roosevelt has a clear, legal ma
jority in the convention and he had
the votes of the people behind him.
Kansas Republicans declared for
Roosevelt by a great majority. They
were misrepresented on the national
committee and by that means Taft
was given a fraudulent majority on
roll call. Roosevelt is the real nomi-
nee, not Taft

New Plan to Increase Animal
Collection.
Business Men Asked to Con-
tribute Specimens.
AND HODGINS LEAD
One Gives AIIigatOrs and Mon
keys-Other Kangaroo.
Effort to Make Zoo Best in the
West.

Led off by r. F. Hodgfns and O.. T.
Walker a movement has been started
in Topeka to supply the Gage park zoo
with the largest collection of animals,
birds, reptiles, etc, in the west. 1t is
planned that each man shall donaNe
some animal or some rare bird or rep
tile to the zoo. o. E. Walker has con-
tributed two alligators and with the
assistance of others twenty-five mon
Keys. r. j. Hodgins seconds the motion
with a kangaroo.
Now what is next.
Any of the city commissioners, pre-
ferably e. b. Stotts, head of the park
department, will act as receiver in
this contest for the zoo donations The
proposition has been worked out at the
city hall and ii is hoped that before the
end of this summer it will be necessary
for the city to spend many thousand
dollars building permanent buildings
and pens and cages for the ZOO
At this time Gage park is well sup
piled with buffalo. deer, alligators
monkeys and geese. But there are a
hundred other things that will be a.
cepted with pleasure. For instance
not lion roars at Gage park-and
what is a zoo without a lion or tiger
Then the park is not supplied with a
collection of snakes. Snakes are a
touchy proposition to show certain
clans and creeds but the city will not
make it violation of the ordinances
to pass them by.
Already the Gage and Central park
lakes are filled with many varieties OF
fish. Some enterprising admirer Of
the Gage zoo could build a monster
aquarium where the fish could be
seen in their lairs by spectators An
aviary with birds from every locality
would be a welcome gift. say the city
officials.
Next to a monkey cage. squirrels
are as interesting to the average park
visitor as any other live feature.
Any kind of animal that can be kept
in captivity-that is what the city
wants for the Gage park zoo. The
donators of the animals will have the
right to name them-and if they re-
fuse to do so the city will name the
animals after Them.
The contest has started.

Entertainment of Business Men
Beats "Trade Tour" Idea.

The first move in the direction CT
a Merchants week entertainment for
1912 was made today at the CONNER
cial club. when a committee was APP
POINTED by Charles F. Adams, pre>i-
dent of the Topeka Jobbers and Mn
ufGcturers' association, to handle the
financing of the project. The event WI
probably take place next October.
For a period of several weeks tne
trade extension committee of the cue
tour in August or September. 1t was
found that such an excursion would
ne an expensive proposition, and there
was some doubt expressed today as tC
the advisability of undertaking it.
Enthusiasm for the entertainment of
the merchants of Kansas was started
by Samuel E. Lux, who expressed HIM
self as believing that this form of ao-
vertising would be more profitable than
that which could be derived through
touring the state.
Merchants week is the biggest thing
we have ever had" said Mr.. Lux. Il
have been receiving letters from mei-
chants all over the state asking wher
we were going to have our annual en-
te,tainment.
1t so happens that several members
of the trade extension committee are
also members of the Jobbers and Man
ufa cturcrs' association, and that is the
reason that action favoring the hold
ing of the fifth annual Merchants
week entertainment was taken.
1t is customary to hold the event IN
June, but owing to depressing business
conditions the country over and tee
fact that the members of the associd-
ton were busy forming the Topeka
traffic bureau it was decided to wait
until 1913 before holding another en-
tertainment. Last June 800 merchants
enjoyed the hospitality of the Tope.
Eans.
It is probable that the Merchants
Association will be willing to bea1 a
portion of the expense of the enter
ment next fall. The holding of the
week of fun now hinges solely upon the
Gbility of the finance committee to raise
the money. The members of the conf
n1ittee appointed to perform this duly
