former Kansans eXiled in New York
voiced their approval of Governor AL
lens candidacy.
Representative Homer Hoch from
the Fourth district, discussing the new
industrial court law, said that Kansas

first constructive piece of legislation
to come out of the war to solve the
national problems pressing for atten-
ton.
other speeches were made by the
Rev. c. Wallace Pity, formerly of To-
peka. and now pastor of the Mount
Morris Baptist church, and Jay E.

PRICE OF THE PRAIRIE

s'In the life of an author there are
many thrills" said Margaret Hill Nc
Carter when she responded to the call
for the author at the performance of
1.-THE Price of the Prairie" yesterday
afternoon. There is the thrill every
day when the last chapter is read
aloud; the thrill when the publishing
house accepts the manuscript. later
when the finished book is in its
makers hand for the first time, and
finally the Thrill which came to me
yesterday, when I heard the words
which l had written, spoken by living
people acting the situations l had
created"
Much of the story had to be omitted,
as Prof. e. D. Schoenberger. who
dramatized the novel, said. Still,s the
main thread of the tale was preserved
and the important elements of the
story were given to the audience
Charles Calvert as the elder Baron
cite did good work and looked the
part as much as any of the characters.
Martin Potter, altho a bit too amiable
for the despicable Judson, was con-
sistant and interesting. Tom Spring

WHITE ON BIG ~"
Emporia Editor Doped To Go TIC
Chicago Is Firm Belief.

William Allen White will go to the
Republican national convention as
delegate from the Fourth district, ac-
cording to the latest dope sheet of
Republican leaders who made Kansas
Day plans in the hotel Hobbies. White
and Will Dalton of Pottawatomie are
apparently slated for district dele
-gates and elimination of factional
troubles in the district seems certain.
Much of the trouble over selection
of delegates from the Fourth was re-
moved when J. H. (Dick) Lee of Har-
veyville advised his friends, he would
not be a candidate for place. Lee
was elected president of the Kansas
Day club at its annual business meet
ing in Topeka Thursday. He won tho
office by reclamation. This honor,
Lee told his friends, should not be
coupled with a place on the national
convention delegation, and he with
drew from the contest.
The Fourth district convention will
be held in Usage City March "a. AT
this time it is apparent that the Kan
sas- Day club workers will take home
the plan of organization as worked
: out in Topeka. This plan will put
White and Dalton on the delegation.
| Out in the Sixth district. the con-
vention will be held a month later
than previously announced. The date
has been fixed for April 21-three
weeks after the Republican state con-
vention in Salina. The Sixth Is the
only congressional district which
voted to hold it's convention after dele
gates at large to the national conven-
ton have been chosen.
