the presidency Two days later Ma
dero and his vice president. Jose Pine
Suarez, were shot to death while being
conveyed from the national palace to
prison. Huerta and his followers at
once disclaimed any participation in
the assassinations.
Huerta's rule was not to b peac e
full long. He tried in vain to secure
recognition at the hands of the Unit

to recognize the government that he
set up Henry Lane Wilson, ambas-

recalled and later rendered his resig-

In the month Of October relations
between Mexico and this country
became more strained. Provisional
President Huerta Of Mexico assumed
the powers of dictator and dissolved
congress. Foreign ENJOYS in Mexico
asked their governments to send war
ships to guard their legations. Presi-

sign and was met by fat refusal.
Vera Cruz viewed with concern the
assembling Of warships in her harbor.
Near the border were massed thou

Huerta was beset by enemies in bis

victories. and =here seemed to be foun-

expect no further financial support A
story to the effect that powerful Eng
lish interests were helping Huerta was
met by prompt denials. Apparently 1t
was the purpose Of the administration
at Washington to let the rebels and

cAPPER FOR GOVERNOR

The writer of this article has
known Arthur Capper for many
years and remembers him well
as a young man who came up
from Garnett to Topeka to cast
his fortunes with the newspaper
boys when the writer was work
ing on the Capital in the SOS.
We were nc ore or less associated
with Mr.. Capper and since those
days have watched his success
with pleasure. 1t is not fulsome
praise to say he is one of the
best men in the state of Kansas
today and is in every way worthy
of the Office to which he aspires.
He built up an immense news
paper business through strict
honesty, sobriety and industry,
and has in his employ today hun
dreds of people old and young,
and he not only possesses their
esteem and respect but has their
affection as well. These are
things that bespeak the caliber
of a man, and his transformations
philantrophies to the poor have
won him a host of warm friends
among the unfortunate in Tope-
ka. Mr.. Capper does not sound
a trumpet of his good deeds
and clean cody life but if any
one investigates they will find
that he delivers the goods every
time. He is a Kansas man, a
self made man and man of al
uncommonly clean record, and
the writer takes more than ordi
nary pleasure in doing all he car
to help elect him to the Cover
norship of the state this fall
Republicans in Kansas boost fol
Capper and help put the RICH
man in the right place at thu
right time.

CaPper is Coming

Arthur Capper is steadily gaining in
his race for governor of Kansas. Peo-
pie are growing tired of men who run
for Office just to defeat somebody else.
Neither Henry Allen norJ. B. Billiard
is running for the governorship with
the slightest notion of being elected.
Neither is trying to point moral or
adorn a tale. Each is trying to beat
another candidate. Allen is trying to
beat Capper by electing Hodges,
Billiard is trying TO beat Hodges.
though he cared nothing for Capper.
If justice were done, Allen and Bill
lard would be excluded from the race
Then Capper would win a hundred
thousand votes. AS it is, Allen will
pull from Capper and Billiard from
Hodges in about equal proportions
and Capper will win by handsome
plurality,
This outcome is as it should be-
There are some who know more law
than Capper and some with more eX-
perience in legislation and statecraft,
but none who has had more to do
with the growth and development
and improvement of X ansas. He is
as clean as whistle and as straight
as string and he will make Kansas
an honorable, dignified and efficient
governor. Kansas City Journal.

CANT SUPPORT II. F. KLINE FOR
REPRESENTATIVE AND OUR
REASONS WHY

For the first time in the history OF
our newspaper experience we are
called upon to take an attitude to-
ward one of the candidates on the
ticket that we have always supported
that may be surprise to some of our
readers. We believe the reasons
which we will furnish will fully just
ify the position which we assume
First, HI. f. Kline is running a
Democratic paper and supporting the
Democratic ticket, as shown on the
second page of his paper where the
Democratic ticket appears in full.
From his first association with the
Reporter he has at no time publicly
a matter that has caused considera-
BILE conjecture and comment There
was a reason for this and it is easy to
be seen that he has been trying to
carry water on both shoulders, some
thing that will always lead to the de-
feat of any man that tries it in any
walks of life.
Since owning the paper never one
good word has been spoken in it's
but column after column devoted to
the Democrats and their Interests,
therefore, we emphatically say that
Kline should look to the Democrats
for his support and not to the Repub-
licans.
One of our strongest reasons for
not supporting this candidate is
when r. f. Stofer of Garden City
came to Wa-Keeney and ''bought in
TO the Reporter tplease keep in mind
Kline still owned the paper he went
out before the primary and worked
tooth and toe nail for certain Demo
Gratis on the Democrat ticket and
Kline smilingly permitted it anC
still asked the Republicans to sup
1 port him. Such a system of double
dealing should not be permitted il
any political party and no candidate
can use such methods and be sup
ported by the World. Kline ha'
owned the paper for the last eigh
years dating from the time tina
Samuel WasSam of New York Cit,
| was associated with it and during al
this time he has never given the Re
publican party one good word or il
any manner helped its. interest
along but has been lavish in givin,
space to all Democratic interests
Now, what we want to know of on
Republican voters is do you thinl
that this man is worthy of the vote
of a party that he has never helpet
by act, word or deed. Let every Re
publican voter in Trego county thinl
over this matter seriously befor
voting for this candidate who ask
for the highest office within the gif
of the people.
