BELIEVES STRONGLY
IN THE COLONEL
J. w. Holt Just Returned from
, North Thinks Indications Very
Favorable for His Candidate.

James W. Holt, who returned yes
terday from a visit to Pittsburg, Pa,
and who Is interested in the pro-
gressive party's candidate for the
presidency, made little investiga-
tion into political matters while on
the trip. AS result, he is Of the
opinion that congress will finally
have to elect a president for the
people of the United States because
he does not believe that any one of
the three leading candidates can re-
ceive the necessary majority in the
electoral college.
Mr.. Holt found that there is a sur
prisingly large vote that is keeping
it's mouth shut and Saving wood"
How this vote will turn out remains
to be seen. He says that the people
of the north contrary to his expecta-
tions, are not at all excited about
the forthcoming election. They are
not parading and shouting for their
candidates as has been the custom in
former years. He found that the
people have learned a lot during the
present campaign about campaign
contributions, and they have decided
that they shall not be "bamboozled"
again.
On talking with labor representa-
tives whom he met in Pennsylvania,
he found that they generally would
support the progressive candidate,
or Washington party candidate,
as it is known in the state of Penn
sylvania. He also found that word
has been passed along in the labor
unions, and that the unions will
come out strong for the colonel.
He stated that a canvass under
taken by two or three northern
papers, among them the Cleveland
Leader, shows that Wilson will prob
ably come out first, Roosevelt second
and Taft third. Mr. Holt believes
that Colonel Roosevelt will carry
Illinois and Pennsylvania with little
difficulty.
While away Mr.. Holt visited the
Roosevelt headquarters and obtained
a great deal of information concern
ing the campaign. He brought back
with him several posters showing
Colonel Roosevelt and his running
mate, Governor Hiram Johnson of
California. He has put them up in
a conspicuous place in his Office.

high school has challenged the mem
bers of the teaching force to a game
of football. Several members of the
man on the force who at least has the
proper weight for an ideal gridiron

Many persons took advantage of the
offer of the K. u. Alumni association to
seats for the K U.-Missouri football
game on Saturday. The association pro-
cured a block of 200 seats near the
rooters' section, and had more than
enough for the membership of the local
organization.

hungry. The idea is to make the Provi-
dent association registration bureau.
