Fight Would Be Necessary.
While Kendall puts his declination
on the ground OF i'll health there was
disposition In many quarters here to
ascribe it to political reasons rather
than reasons Of i'll health and take the
view that Mr.. Kendall either feared de-
feat at the polls or knew II he won It
would be at the expense Of the hardest
kind Of a fight. The opinion. however.
was expressed by some Of the members
of the delegation that Mr.. Kendall
would have won had he remained in
the race. One factor in the situation
Is that some Of the standpatters in the
Sixth district recently have been
stirred up because Mr.. Kendall did
not attend the notification at the
White House for President Taft a
short time ago.
1t was learned that Mr.. Kendalrs
decision not to run did not come az a
surprise to his colleagues Of the Iowa
delegation. He has talked to some Of
them about 1t recently and has said he
would not make the race. One of the
plans he has in mind for the future Is
to go to Des Moines and enter the law
business there.

William Frank March, the Lawrence

nearly every student who has attended
Kansas university during the past
twenty years, is also a we'll known
lodge man. He Is grand commander
Of the Knights Templars Of Kansas
and holds several other titles, present
and past, in the Masonic order. He
was helping a reporter get a list Of
the officers and other details Of the
meeting of the grand commandery in
Kansas City, Kan, and laughed when
the reporter quizzed why every lodge
officers title was preceded by the word
"grand."
"You make me think of my wife,"
he said. II left home one night to at

The clubwomen of Wyoming are
elated at the election of Mrs. Wissler
as mayor of Dayton.
ut is time Wyoming began doing
more for the women in the way of
electing them to Office" said a Chey-
enne club leader. although this state
was the first to adopt woman suffrage.
1t has elected few women to office. 1t
was not until the last session of the
legislature that we had a woman rep
resentative. Colorado has had more
than a dozen women in the legislature
all told in recent years. Idaho has had
more women in Office than Wyoming.
We have a oma as superintendent
Of public instruction. but that is an ap-
| pointive office and is woman's work
anyway.
"What we want is more representa-
| ton among the elective offices Of the
state, and WI are going to get them.
More Wyoming towns are going to fol
low the example Of Dayton and elect
women mayors. We don't have to de-
pend on the woman vote to get the
Offices. as Mrs. Wissler's election
shows. Wyoming men are the most
gallant and fair minded in the world.
and they are going to help the cause
along when they see how much good
it is going to do some Of these rough
towns to have a woman at the head of
affairs"
Mrs. Wissler has two grown chill
dren. and says that politics has been a
pleasant field of work for her ever
since her home duties ceased. Dayton,
with it's population of only 200 or 800,
does not appear like a big field.
"There's more devilment here than in
most cities many times the size,' said
one of the new mayors boomers. IF
Aunt Susan car hold down the job
here she wouldn't have any trouble
bossing New York or Chicago. We're
going to give her lots Of elbow room
and plenty Of help, and we believe that
1t amt going to hurt things a bit to
have a crackerjack housekeeper and
business woman in charge of Dayton
for awhile"
Miss Anna Agnes Maley, the Social
list candidate for governor Of the state
Of Washington, was born in Minnesota
in 1873. She was reared on a farm
and was the eighth Of a family of
eleven children. At thirteen she went
to Minneapolis, where she worked for
her board' and attended school until
she had completed three years in high
school. She taught in country schools
until she was twenty-five, when she
took up st%enography.
Later she returned to school, doing
special work at the University OF

Minnesota and in the Rand School of
Social Science in New York. From
1909 to 1911 she was a special organ
izer of women for the National Social
list party. For a year past she has
been connected with a Socialist paper
published in Everett, Wash.
Miss Maley made no canvas for the
nomination, as in her state Socialist
nominations are made by referendum.
The state Office issues a call to the
locals and each local sends its nomi-
nation. All who receive more than
five nominations either accept or de.
cline. The names of those who accept
are sent back for final vote. Only
Judge Richard Winsor and Miss Maley
accepted, and Miss Maley won by 800
votes.
She is already in the field campaign
ing. She Is regarded as likely to run
second among the candidates for gov.
ernor, and her election is not impos-
slble If the old parti,s remain split.
