EX-GOVERNOR Stubs
Of KANSAS HERE
IN INTERVIEW WITH THE LEADER
ENDORSES JUSTICE HUGHES
FOR PRESIDENT.
Says Senator La Toilette Is Political
Power, But As a Presidential
Candidate Is Weak.

Possibly the most interesting visitor
at the stock sale was Ex-Governor
Stubs of Kansas.
Mr. Stubs is not interesting only
because of the fact that he is a poll
tician, and a good one, but also from
the fact that he is a practical dairy
man, and is in Watertown to attend
the cattle sale at the fair grounds.
THE LEADER had the pleasure of a
personal interview with Mr. Stubs.
and naturally the subject was politics.
The governor is a man who talks
cautiously, but none the less frank
ly In the interview he unqualifidely
Endorsed the candidacy of Justice
Hughes, for the republican nomination
for president, and intimated that the
supreme court judge is the only pres
ent-day possibility who can hope to
retire President Wilson to that small,
but exclusive, American Society of ex-
Presidents.
He says that the delegates from
Kansas to the national convention are
iAiOStiy OUISpOh6u hughes Ll6H, UuI III
his state they do not have primaries,
under which circumstances delegates
are not instructed. He thinks it not
at all improbable that the Kansas vote
will be solidly for Hughes, if the
Judge will accept the nomination
Dropping into Wisconsin politics
the governor says he has always been
an enthusiastic admirer of Senator La
Toilette, but he does not believe the
senator will be a factor in the conven-
ton
Mr. Stubs can not comprehend how
anyone but the president can be the
choice of the ST Louis convention
Mr.. Bryan Notwithstanding
He says that Wilson can not carry
Kansas against Hughes, for the far
mers are particularly bitter against
the presidents tariff program.
The governor is not slow to answer
questions which appeal to him, and
when asked what he had been doing
most of the time since vacating the
executive Office he quickly replied:
Trying to make a living" From ap-
pearances he would appear to have
| been successful.

Y. P. S. PRESENTS
FOR OLD Ell
A COMEDY IN FOUR ACTS PRE-
SENTING YALE LIFE AS 1T is
AY-SEVENTEEN IN CAST.
Each Member Was a Star i'm the Part
Which He Presented Played
To a Opacity House.

Before capacity house Friday even
ing the Congregational Y. P. S. pre-
sented a play entitled For Old Eli'' in
the church hall
The play was a comedy in four acts
OF Yale life as it is today. 1t is a
good, clean, wholesome play, which
is built about members of the Yale
track team
Dick Carson, roommate of the track
team captain, became intoxicated the
evening before the big track meet of
| the season and disgraced the team,
and being looked upon with scorn by
his friends, both male and female.
| On the day of the race, however
Captain Charley Walker had the mis-
fortune of stepping in one of the
starting holes and spraining his
ankle. This accident left the team in
quite sad state of affairs, as Walker
was the one person who was looked up
to, to win this particular race.
The question then arose, who will
run in Walkers place? For some
time no one answered, and then Dick
Carson, who had just furnished run
ming a previous race, stepped forward
and volunteered to run in his place.
To the surprise of all Carson won
the race, and restored glory to old Eli.
Not only to old Eli did he restore glory
! but also to himself, as his conduct of
the previous evening was fully for
given and his former friends looked
which one could draw the conclusion
that he lived happily ever after.
1t would be doing an injustice to the
cast if any single person were to be
praised for his work, as the entire
company acted their parts to advan-
| tage.
The cast was under the direction of
Mrs. N. c. Daniel and Miss Georgia
Lutkemeyer, and the music was fur
nished by the "Junsen" orchestra
which will give concert in the High
school auditorium in the near future.

hoped that this appeal will meet with
a generous response
