WHO SPILLED BEANS?
Correspondent Says Capper Agricul-
tural Publications Did 1t.

The State Journal received this
morning an interesting communica-
ton that looks at the political situa-
ton from a somewhat new angle.
This correspondent lives in Sedgwick
county, and under the heading who
Spilled the Beans?" writes:
1.-The unusual agility of Kansas in
jumping from the Republican to the
Democratic column, altho the Repub-
lican candidate for governor is elected
by an unprecedented majority, has
caused a great deal of speculation as
to underlying causes.
There is really not much of a mys-
terry connected with it. The women
did not do it. They voted largely
along the same lines as did the men,
whether married or unmarried. There
is no fine-spun idealistic trend to the
matter.
THE writer has lived among farm
ers all his life. He has rubbed elbows
with them every day in a long ex-
perience in a country town. He has
heard their views as they were being
moulded and crystallized by the news
papers and periodicals they read.
Governor Capper covers agricul-
tural Kansas with his Mail and Breeze
and Capper's Weekly with a complete
ness of which few publications boast.
Nearly every week since the great war
began these two periodicals have ham,
mered away on the Ford-Bryan the
cries of pacifism and non-prepared-
ness. The readers have been pro-
foundly impressed. The writings of
Tom McNeal are accepted almost as
gospel by a vast number of Kansas
people He is a telling and clever
writer, and his entire trend along ma
