county in Kansas gave him. kansas
City Times.
Seemingly Shawnee county and the
state of Kansas profit little thru the
public funds used for the purpose of
keeping Fred Trigg in close communi-
cation with public affairs in this state.
This week the Missouri newspaper
uses a half column of editorial space
to mislead Kansans as to political con-
ditions in their own state.
From the half column the lonesome
grain of truth is quoted. Shawnee
county did give Snow his biggest vote.
But the Missouri newspa per-continu-
ing the national committeeman fight
settled in Chicago in June-proceeds
to misrepresent Shawnee county and
Kansas Republicans on the basis of its
lonesome fact.
Official returns from the statewide
primary are now available. They were
available when the Missouri paper
printed its editorial. Other facts were
available-but not printed.
Biggest Vote to Allen, Also.
Shawnee county did give Snow his
biggest vote. 1t also gave Governor
Allen his biggest vote. But that
wasn't mentioned. The Shawnee coun-
ty Republicans gave Governor Allen
3,463 more votes than did SedgwicK
county, the governors home That
wasn't mentioned. Governor Aliens
majority in Shawnee was 3.945 and in
Sedgwick it was 1.1S5. That wasn't
mentioned. The governors majority
in Shawnee was $3.50 more than in
his home county-and this is Shows
home, too. But that wasn't men
toned. Governor Allen received. Sc
per cent of the votes cast in the Re
publican primaries in Shawnee. He
received only 81 per cent of the votes
in party primary at home. That
wasn't mentioned.
Right at the press room door of
We're 9T5 fewer votes cast for Cover
nor Allen than in Shawnee county In
spite of the money spent by the state
that some of her officials may COM
munication frequently with Mr.. Trigg,
that fact was overlooked.
Once a person begins to overlook
details, the habit becomes almost a
disease. There are all manner of in
teresting things about the guberna-
toriaI primary-since the Missouri
paper really seeks to discuss them.
Many of them have been overlooked,
Figures Tell Story.
For instance:
Shawnee county with 1851 Re
publican votes in the primary, gave
Governor Allen S,27S. It gavel Snow
4,333, or a majority of 3,945 for the
governor SedgWick county, with a
heavier registration and larger voting
population, gave the governor 4,s15
votes and cast $3.50 for Snow. This
made the governors home majority
1,1S5. Wyandotte, with the largest
population in the state, gave Allen but
1903 votes or 975 fewer than Shaw
nee.
Looking at it from congressional
districts. The First district gave Allen
20, $50 votes, as against 8, 321 for Snow.
The Eighth district, the governors s
home. gave the governor 1890 votes
and cast 5,235 for Snow. The First
