and was active in the old crowd,
which swayed Kansas politics in the
days before the primary system
In 1888 Stanton was appointed su-
perintendent of construction for the
state. The appointment was made
by Governor Morrill, and Stanton held
the office until the retirement of
Morrill, from office in 1897, follow
ing the election of Governor Leedy.

Appointed State Architect.
When the Republicans returned to
power in 1898 with the election of
Governor Stanley, Stanton was APP
pointed state architect. Stanley
served as governor until 1903 and
Stanton stayed on the job during the
entire administration. He was re-
appointed architect in 1908 when Will

he held his position during the two
years of Bai1ey's rule and the four
succeeding years of the administra-
ton of Governor Hcch.
Not until January, 1909 when Wal
ter Roscoe Stubs was indicted INTO

ment, was Stanton separated from the
state pay roll. With the coming of
the Stubbs administration, most of the
appointees of the days of Hoch and
Bailey and the few who had remained
from the Stanley administration, were
removed. Stanton was removed with
them.
Following his retirement from pub
lie office, Stanton opened a private
office in Topeka and was recognized
as an architect of unusual ability.
During his term in the state house
Stanton drafted plans and specifica-
tons for the new state buildings and
many of the present structures on
state property were planned by him.
He also prepared plans for the Nc
