kicked the industrial court law down

Slack Wire Work in Politics

COMBINE TO BEAT CAMPBELL
If John d. burlington Wins Is

Primary Systems Weakness Is
Shown in Election.
COMBINE TO BEAT CAMPBELL
By A. L. SHULTZ.

For the first time in the history of
the state, Kansas faces the prospect
of a red card Socialist representing
one of her congressional districts in
Washington. John D. Huntington,
Democrat nominee in the Third dis
trict, is not only not Democrat. but
Socialist and a Socialist of the real
radical type.
Turkington's nomination as a Dem
ocrat is a living testimonial of the fact
that the days of slack wire work in
politics didn't disappear from the
world when the primary came to cure
political ills. The story which comes
out of the Third district recites the
scheme of the Democrats and the So
cialists to combine on radical in or
der to win Congressman Phil p. Camp
BELLS seat in Washington. 1t wasn't
Just exactly an open session agree
menr, either. 1t was one OF those Pc
culiarIy fixed" things which the re-
formers insisted smelled like burning
India rubber when it happened in
party convention.
But of course this deal to divide the
loaves and the fishes was in primary.
And a primary can't help but be above
suspicion. 1t is a little deal wherein
the Democrat party in the Third dis
wins-whle Huntington gets the salary
and the radical element in Socialist
ranks gets the vote and the prestige.
Under Democratic Banner.
On occasion the Socialist party has
been known to roll up 1900 votes in
the Third district. 1t is the home Of
Alexander Howat and the radical labor
elements. If there is a real melting
pot in Kansas it is in Crawford county
-Turkington's home.
Yet the Socialist vote isn't strong
enough to elect a congressman. Once
in the political upheaval of 1872
the Socialists elected a full county
ticket in Crawford county. That was
the year Huntington came into power.
Since then, the Socialists have been
slipping away. Now the move is to
herd them together under the Demo-
cratic banner-that the com bination
may win an election.
1t was wonderfully ingenious
scheme put together by burlington,
'Bnr' Ryan and Uncle Jimmie Cassin

FREE TRIPS TO HUNLAND.
Army Now Has Two Hundred
Vacancies on the Rhine.

Recruiting for the Army of Occu-
patton now on duty in Germany will
be resumed on November 1. For the
infantry 200 men are needed, of whom
IL must be clerks, but only recruits
of a high type, who can be quickly
trained, will be accepted. When 80
infantry vacancies were thrown open
on October l they were filled up SO
quickly that these enlistments for
Germany had to be closed on Octo-
Der 6.
In the old army recruits had no
choice in the selection of regiment
and could not name any particular
station. In the new peace-time army
a man may either pick his own regi-
ment or designate the part of the
world to which he wishes to be sent.
