Declares He Would Not Accept
Amy Political Office.
.DOOLITTLE SHOULD WORRY
Fourth District Congressman
Has Host of Opponents.
But They All Are of Opposite
Political Faith.

Mayor Green of Kansas City, Kan.
will not be candidate for the Demo-
cratic gubernatorial nomination in
1915. That was Green's positive state
ment while in Topeka this week to
attend the flood congress. He declares
he has had enough political experience
and wouldn't run for a place on the
school board
In the minds of many Kansas Dem
ocrats, Mayor Green was regarded as
the logical candidate for governor.
The Kansas Bourbons could harmon
than under the leadership of any other
suggested candidate. Both L. NJ. Pen
well of Topeka and John r.. Wagner
of Larned have been mentioned and
both have shown a tendency to take
the matter seriously. Each of these
men however, would enter the fight
with a certain handicap and would
be forced to Salve the wounds or a
more or less positive opposition with
in the party. For that reason Green
was looked upon as a natural leader
in the next gubernatorial contest.
Now Green asserts he Will not run.
He is making his farewell appearance
in office, the Kansas City mayor as
serts, and he refuses to be tempted.
Il positively wouldn't run for any
thing Green declared when asked
regarding his gubernatorial boom.
Make it clear. I do not want Of
flee and positively won't run for any
thing. 1 wouldn't SO much as accept
place on the school board. 1 am
not in any sense candidate for Of
flee and do not expect to be-"
In the recent Kansas City, Kan,
election probe, Mayor Green was drag
ged into the controversy with consid-
cradle freedom. The probe which was
launched to prove to the world that
''Terre Haute is a Sunday school town
by comparison simmered down to a
controversy as to whether Mayor
Green was interested in the manage
ment of a grocery store which sold
supplies to the city. In the recent
city campaign, Green was elected may
or by majority of nearly 10000.
Dudley Doolittle, congressman from
the Fourth Kansas district, will permit
the Republicans to worry about the
congressional situation in his district
at least until after the August, 1916,
primaries. Some ten or twelve Re
publican candidates may enter the
fight for the congressional nomination
in the Fourth district and Doolittle,
who sees no trouble in his own party
at this time, enjoys good sleep and a
restful summer at his home in the
Flint Hills of Chase county.
II don't know why 1 should worry
about the matter at this time" said
Doolittle, who was in Topeka Friday
night on his way to Kansas City.
Judging the situation from the num-
Der or republican candidates VINO
want to go to congress from the
Fourth district, I think 1 should re-
linquish to them the right to worry
at least until after the next primaries.
Then if there is occasion to worry, I
can better stand the loss of a little

London, Dec. IA dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph Company from
Amsterdam says: Reports from vi
emma say that the AmericaI- note con-
cerning the sinking of the Italian
steamer Ancona has caused intense
anger in the Austrian government and
diplomatic rupture is considered
probable. The question before Baron
Burian, the Austro-Hungarian foreign
minister, is only whether "a rupture
with the United States would not
force Berlin to a like step.
Count TisZa, the Hungarian pre-
mier, has been summoned to Vienna
to discuss the situation with the gov.
eminent"
Contrasting the tone of the note
sent to the Austrian government by
the United States with the note sent
to Germany after the Lusltania disas-
ter, the Daily Express concludes that
"the note would have been more i'm.
pressive if it had been addressed to
the power capable of injuring the
United States instead of to it's ally,
from which the United States has
nothing to- fear"
London-The British and French
troops have successfully carried out
their retiremen: from Serbia across
the Greek frontier, and by an arrange,
ment with the Greek government a

an exaggeration.

orderly manner and without heavy
losses.

Queer Dinner Bell.

I had finished my toilet and was
lettering with Frank Bracebridge in
the library, when we heard distinct
thwacking sound, which he informed
me was a signal for the serving up Of
the dinner. The squire kept up old
customs in kitchen as we'll as hall;
and the rolling-pin, struck upon the
dresser by the cook, summoned the
servants to carry in the meats and
fixings.
The dinner was served up in the
great hall, where the squire always
held this Christmas banquet. blaz-
ing, cracking fire of logs had been
heaped on, to warm the spacious
apartment, and the fame went spark
ling and wreathing up the wide
mouthed chimney. On the sideboard
was a display of plate that might
have We'd lat least in variety with
Belshazzar's parade Of the vessels of
the temple: "Flagons, cans, cups, beak-
ers, goblets, basins, and ewers;" the
gorgeous utensils of good compan.
ionship that had gradually accumulated
through many generations of jovial
housekeepers. Before these stood
the two Yule candles, beaming like
two stars Of the first magnitude; 9TH
er lights were distributed in branches,
and the whole array glistened like a
armament of silver.
We were ushered into this banquet
ing scene with the sound of MINIS
trelsy, the old harper being seated on
a stool beside the fireplace. and
twanging his instrument with vast
deal more power than melody. Never
did Christmas board display more
goodly and gracious assemblage Of
countenances; those who were not
handsome were, at least, happy; and
happiness is a rare improver OF your
hard-favored visage.
