PHIL CAMPBELL's VIEW

"The result of the Kansas sena-

this will be a Republican year." said
Representative Campbell Of Kansas
when asked what he thought OF the
vote. "It is particularly good evil

Republican. know that in my state
Of Kansas those who voted 1oi
Roosevelt in 1912 did SO. not be-
cause they had left the Republican
party, but as a protest against wna'
happened in the Chicago convention
"There will be a slump from tne
Progressive to the Republican party
this fall and in 1915, not because
those who voted the Progressive
ticket in 1912 are not Just as pro
rressive as ever, but because theS
will have no protest to make ana car

THIS SUIT FILLED
WITH COMPLICATIONS

Suit was filed in district court to-
day by Myrtle Elliott of Valentine,
Neb., VS.. Walter J. Elliott, Mabel
Elliott, A. H. Brightbill, Alice M.
Parent, Viola Elliott and Dora Eli
liott. In her petition the plaintiff
alleges that she holds promissory
note executed in her favor by Wall
ter j. and Mabel Elliot, which ex-
pired March 1, 1918, and which was
secured by a mortgage on quarter
section of Dickinson land. The quar-
ter section has an encumbrance of q
$4,000 mortgage which has been as
signed to Alice M. Parent, and for
this reason the last named person
was made party to the suit. Walter
and Mabel Elliott, the petition fur
Their alleges, gave their promissory
notes to Viola and Dora Elliott, and
these notes, which were for $1,000
each, were secured by the same quar-
ter section of land, so that these per-
sons are also made parties to the
suit. By some arrangement, A. H.
Brightbill is in possession Of the
land, and so he is brought into the
suit. The plaintiff asks that the
mortgage be forclosed.
Viola Elliott of Elmo, one Of the
defendants, at the same time filed
an answer and cross petition, in
which she says that Walter ]. and
Mabel Elliott have not redeemed her
$1,000 note, which is past due, and
she also asks that her note be fore
closed. C. Z. Rugh is attorney for
the plaintiff and for Viola Elliott.

REPUBIICANs AND THE
ELECTION IN NOVEMBER

Editor Reflector: Now that the
primaries are past the political SKY
beSins 10 clear and we can again
have some idea Of coming events.
Az Republicans we can look into the
coming election with some degree OF
certainty. The fate Of some men 30
far as the coming election goes Is
already settled. Whether as RepuO-
Iicans we were for or against MT
pr,atow. he Is now out OF the race,
40 far as human foresight can Judge.
The same Is true OF Victor Murdoch
and Henry Allen. Murdoch by ms
own act eliminated himself from
possible election 40 congressman
from the Eighth district, and the
showing made by the Progressive
marty makes his election as senator
n practical impossibility, and now
as Republicans whether Of the STAND
pat or progressive variety or simply
Republicans without any prefixes or
mffixes this condition faces u.s. ana
the same condition IL true OF Henry
Aliens candidacy for governor:
whom do we prefer. Curtis or Nee
lev for senator or Capper or Hodges
for governor? II the primary re-
turns had indicated any possiDlnty
for the election of either MurdocA
or Allen, there might be some rea-
son for keeping up the fight. / know
there will be talk about standing up
for principle and all that, which is
all right when principles are at
stake. In a contest where Repupil-
can principles are concerned winch
would be the most likely to vote the
Republican view, Curtis or Neeiey
Remember we will settle the status
NJ Kansas in the senate at the COM
ing election. II we vote for NeeleY
or Murdoch we are putting Kansas
nm the side Of the free trade reac-
tionary democracy. I include MUIR
dock with Neeley. because there is
no possibility Of his election IN NO
vember. The same Is true OF our
state officers. If we prefer the pres
ant promising but nonfulfilling COVER
nor to Mr.. Capper, then vote for him
or Allen. Allen with Murdoch has nc
nossible chance of election and q
vote for him is only assisting to
keep the present incumbent in OIL
flee. It is no exaggeration to say
THAT nine out Of every ten who are
lpow active in the Progressive party
voted for Mr.. Capper two years ago
Tn what way has Mr.. Capper repud
lated any principle he advocated
then? Is It not fact that the onl!
reason the Progressives have 10
; opposing him is that he did no
favor a new party? After the NO
vember election the Progressive par
ty will probably have the followin'
achievements to congratulate them
, selves for accomplishing: First as IN
dicated above, the retirement OF Bris
tow and Murdoch from the senat
and house; second, the promotion o
7 Neeley to the senate should ne D
i. successful, and the reelection o
Q Hodges If that calamity should har
pen. If they derive any comfort fror
3 such a prospect as old Republican
Q they must be easily satisfied. Curt
