Governor Stubbs Succinctly Points Out
The Reasons for Supporting Roosevelt

The following message OF Governor
W. II. Stubbs Of Kansas to the Repub-
licans OF North Dakota. outlines his
reasons for urging them to support
Theodore Roosevelt.
very deeply regret that 1t was i'm
possible for me to fill my engagements
to address your citizens in the inter-
ests OF the nomination and election Of
Theodore Roosevelt to the Office Of
president Of the United States.
Kansas like Dakota is a thoroughly
progressive state. The management
OF our state government is sound,
business like and up to date.
The people Of Kansas want to see
business laws and efficient business
management in the interest Of all the
people applied to the affairs of our ma.
tional government.
have been asked by the Roosevelt
committee to tell the people of North
Dakota why Kansas is for Roosevelt
for president. In 1904, Roosevelt car
ried our state by 10000 majority and
the state ticket was elected by from
10000 to 10000.
Practically every state in the union

White House. His policies were pro-
gressive and sound. the achievements
Of his administration II properly sum-
marked would read more like the
work of the century, that history Of

Greatest Since lincoln.
The powerful political organization
headed IN the house by Joseph g..
Cannon and in the senate by Nelson
Aldrich, had failed utterly in their ef-
forts to prevent the enactment Of pro-
gressive legislation advocated by the
greatest president who has been in the
White House since Lincoln.
The Dolliver-Hepburn railroad act
was the first step in the direction Of
actual and bonafide control Of rail-
roads. The national irrigation act will
eventually bring under cultivation
millions Of acres of our public domain
and provide homes for millions Of
people. The employees liability act,
the safety appliance act, regulation Of
the hours Of labor Of railroad em-
ployes and the settlement of the great
anthracite coal strike represent only
a part Of the important work. which

When the bill was considered in the
house serious opposition to this pro-
vision resulted and it was struck out.
MllitarS experts pointed out at the

QUITMAN WILL ASK
SPECIFIC TAX REPEAL

QUITMAN, Ca, Jan. 24.-It seems GER
tain that a strong demand will be made
by citizens here that the city council
repeal the specific tax ordinance levied
by it nearly two years ago. This specific
tax has never been popular, not that
the citizens objected so much to paying
additional taxes but they said the tax
as levied was unequal. A drayman whose
horse and dray represented an invest
ment of $50, paid a special tax OF $40,
while a bank with an investment of
$25O,OOO paid $50 One firm was so con-
WINGED the tax was wrong that 1T is
fighting the payment in the courts.
Members of council freely admitted
the justice of those concentrations and
made no defense of the tax except to say
the town was in debt and needed the
money. Last week a statement of the
towns financial condition revealed the
fact that it is entirely out of debt, its
net assets now being S111,3S2.76. The opin-
ion is expressed that the tax should
be removed now that the original eX-
cuse for it has disappeared.

CENTRAL COTTON BUREAU
HANGS IN THE BALANCE

NEW YORK, Jan. 24-After a trip
through the south in an effort to over
come objections to the central bureau
recently established here for the regis
tration of cotton bills of lading, H.
Kern, chairman of the European bank
ers conference committee, and ]. H.
Simpson, manager of the bank Of Liv-
erpool, returned to New York today.
They will remain here a few days be-
fore returning to England. Reports
that the English visitors had been con-
WINGED that the bureau must be aban-
doned on account of opposition among
the shippers. in the south and bank
ers IN the north were denied by Charles
S. Haight, counsel for the European
committee. Hr. Haight spoke for
Messrs. Kern and Simpson.
Nothing will be decided upon for a
few days." said Mr.. Haight. THE Wis
it of the English representatives to
this country has resulted in a better
understanding on the part of everybody.
AT the Memphis conference one or two
points were suggested in regard to al
formations which might help things
along. We hope that it will be possible
to avoid past grounds of friction"
Mr.. Haight said that some definite
announcement as to the future of the
central bureau would soon be made.
