NCoY ttnred from Pagr One1
ties the question of law enforcement
had more or less to do with the votes
| cast against me. 1 made speaking
campaign of less than one week
against Senator Curtis in the primary
and did not spend one dollar on cleo
ton day to get out votes, or for any
purpose whatsoever. A most bitter
and relentless fight was made against
me before the primary by the Stand
ard Oil attorneys and managers the
big corporations, the bootleggers and
brewers, the Kansas City Journal
which is managed and controlled by
the stockholders and officers of the
Santa Fe railroad, and the Bell Tele-
phine company, together with an army
of men who a few years ago enjoyed
special privileges at the expense of the
state and who are now just private
citizens
Thompson Lacks Popular Majority.
Mr.. Taft lacked nearly two million
votes of receiving a popular majority
over Roosevelt in the primary, lacked
fifty votes of having a majority of the
honestly elected delegates in the Chi
cago convention and lacked nearly
forty thousand votes of having re-
ceived a popular majority in Kansas,
and yet Mr.. Curtis insists that Taft is
the regular Republican nominee. Also
Senator Curtis seems to have forgot
ten that Mr.. Thompson, my Demo-
cratic opponent, whom he is trying to
help elect to the senate, did not even
receive a popular plurality vote, hav-
ing received less than one-third of the
Democratic votes cast and less than
one-third of the number of votes cast
for me.
About Personal Taxes.
Senator Curtis charges about my
personal taxes in Douglas county in
the year 1903 are nothing more nor
less than a deliberate attempt to de-
ceive the public. At that time / was
engaged in the contracting business.
and had construction and other con-
tracing work scattered all over the
middle west and Pacific coast states, |
and the property used in this business
was taxed in the states where it was |
located. I did not have any business
interest in Douglas county that repre-
scented personal property except bank |
stock where the bank paid the taxes. |
1 lived in Wakarusa township outside |
the city and returned $2,5SO worth of |
property, consisting principally of |
household furniture. horses carriages, |
cows and personal effects. The asses
sor returned one-third of the total |
valuation, which was $3.50. After /
had become active in public life very |
soon discovered that I could not serve |
two masters, as some other people |
seem to think they can do, and 1 felt |
compelled to either quit the service of |
the railroads or the service of the peo-
pie chose to quit the former and |
sold out my railroad contracting bust |
ness. The proceeds invested in |
Douglas county, as we'll as in other |
parts Of Kansas and adjoining states. J

ARREsTlNG FLIGHT OF TIME

moving superfluous hair, being an eA-

says he had an old nurse who used
to eat egg shells and crunch them JOY
fully between the teeth that happened
to meet, and she said she ate the
shells because they Shaved the hair
off inside of the throat" The discov-

When the masque ball at the Southern club has passed into history. the time for fasting and prayer" will have be- gun, and the social season may be pro- nounced closed, according to precedent
 The masquerade occurs this evening and will be largely attended.
