Governor stubbs For Roosevelt.

Il am In favor OF the nomination
and election of Theodore Roosevelt
for president" said Governor w. X.
Stubbs. OF Kansas, progressive repub-
lican. recently.
First" continued Governor Stubbs.
because the imperative need Of
our country for the next four years
Is a president who believes In his
heart In the policies advocated by
Lincoln and who has the courage of
his convictions.
Second, because Colonel Roosevelt.
more than any other man, is respon-
sible for the nationwide forward
movement In the direction OF gov
ernment administered honestly and
vigorously. without fear or favor. for
rich. poor, high. low. black and white.
Colonel Roosevelt is not only the
logical candidate for president at this
time, but he Is the only one who Is
sure to win. He can carry the New
England states, New York. Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio. and his majority
through the Middle West and Paci-
fic Coast would be overwhelming re
gardless of who IL nominated against
, him. In Kansas he would not only
carry the full republican vote II nom
mated, but he would receive = large
share Of the progressive democratic
votes.
Personally. l am very fond OF Sen
ator La Toilette and ! regard him as
a great constructive statesman. but l
have not encouraged any general
movement for him In Kansas. because
am fully convinced that Colonel
Roosevelt is the man who can be
absolutely depended upon to win. and
thereby save the country from four
years OF uncertain political expert
mcnts. which may involve the wreck
and ruin OF those for the national
policies associated with his name.

 AS a result of a steady rain which has fallen in southeastern Kansas and northeastern Oklahoma, all streams within a radius of 30 miles of Parsons, Kan, are overfowing their banks. La bette creek, in the east part of the city, is overfowing its banks for the second time this year, causing a con- siderable amount of damage to prop erty. More than 30 families have been forced to leave their homes in boats, which are manned by men employed by the city, and volunteer helpers.

Vigorous Appeal to Congress to Re- move Import Duty on Sugar
 Fight Trust.

New York, June 19.-Once again the great houses of Havemeyer and Ar buckle have lined for battle over su- gar. The Arbuckles are the aggressors as they were fifteen years ago, when each invaded the others monopoly.
 The Arbuckles plan to let their cus- toners know they are paying too much for their sugar and that they should get it cheaper than the people of any country. Then through various sources they will make vigorous fight before Congress to have the import duties on sugar removed. If sugar can come in free, the Arbuckles will then open the fight against the sugar trust The trust is standing pat, satisfied that 1t can carry the day. Although they think the duty on sugar will not be taken off the Arbuckles are said to be planning for the erection of several large refineries.
