The Seventh Answers

Under the heading "PubliC
Service or Spoils Politics" the
Kansas City Star on November
A, the Saturday before the cleo
tion, paid the following compli.
ment to the congressman from
the Big Seventh District and ad,
vocated his reelection:
"It would be a serious misfor-
tune indeed for the Seventh
Kansas District to permit blind
partisanship to rob it of the SER
vices of Jouett Shouse in con-
gress. Few members of Con-
gress command a place in Wash
ington. Newspaper men who
stay in Washington and report
congressional sessions know the
great value to any district that
has the rare good fortune of
electing man capable of MAX
ing a place for himself in either
House of Congress, and particu-
larly in the Lower House.
"Jouett Shouse made such a
place for himself and the Sew
enth District in his first term.
Every newspaper correspondent
knows it, and wonders if the
Seventh Kansas District intends
to throw away this coveted posi-
tion in Washington.
'"The business men of the 'Big
Seventh ought to be interested
in the election of Jouett Shouse
for this reason. They must un-
derstand the Importance of hav-
ing such a man in Congress, and
they must understand, at this
late day, the absurdity of bar
tering away efficiency in the
public service for spoils politics.
"Next Tuesday will tell the
story of the estimate southwest
Kansas places upon it's represen-
tation in Congress-"
The Seventh District answered
the question of it's estimate upon
its representation in Congress
in most decisive fashion. 1t has
returned Congressman Jouett
Shouse by plurality of sixty
five hundred, the largest plurali-
ty ever given congressman of
any party from this district.
Such an answer is the best pos
sible evidence of the approval of
the course of Congressman
Shouse as a public servant and
the esteem in which he is held
by the people of the district

RYE FOR SECOND TERM.

Governor Rye will be renominated
without serious opposition, as he
should be. There has been a strenu-
Gus effort on the part of small CO
terie of mal-contents to find some
available man willing to go W
against him for the nomination; but
so far the uncertain honor has
found no takers.
The chief grievance seems to be
that he has kept his platform pledges
of law enforcement. This naturally
causes opposition in some quarters
but it goes well with the party al
large; and the anti.Rye movement
has met a cold reception. Governor
Rye has made an efficient and con-
scientieus executive and has earned
the customary second term. The
Washington County democracy will
instruct solidly for him on Saturday.

KNOxyTLLE's FIRST TRADE TRIP

The Knoxville Board of Commerce
is receiving enthusiastic letters daily
from the different Boards of Com
merce OF the towns and cities to be
visited on their First Trade Trip, as
surfing them of their hearty cooper
alton in making this trip the decided
success the Knoxville organization
desires it to be. While this is to be
the first trip that Knoxville has ever
made of this kind, neither pains nor
expense are being spared to make ii
a success in every way.
The purpose of the trip is not al
together for business purposes, OF
for selling goods, but rather to meet
the people of the various towns from
whom they buy goods and to who
they sell goods, and to bring them
into a closer relationship with each
other.
In several Of the larger towns and
cities where the Special" is to stop
for some length of time, preparations
are being made to entertain the visit
ors i'm many ways; while in the small
or towns where the length of stay
will not permit of extensive enter
tainment, other forms will be pro-
vided.
The special will consist of eight
all-steel Pullman cars, including two
dining cars and one combination
baggage and refreshment car.
The train will carry over 100 of
KnoXville's leading business and pro-
fessional men and manufacturers on
board. Besides these, there will be
large brass band to help make merry
when the visitors arrive in the varl-
Gus towns and cities.
Each member of the party will
wear white hat and carry a striped
umbrella in addition to wearing the
regular badge.
