How the Twenty-second and Twenty-first Kandas regiments came home from Camp Alger, and from Chattanooga, Tenn., during the fall of 1898 after the Spanish-American war was told at the National Hotel last night by Tom D. Smith, of Hiawatha. Said Smith: "In 1898 I enlisted, and left Kansas university and came to Topeka and was assigned to Co. K., of the Twenty-second Kansas. When the war had been over a month we were slated to go to Cuba, but were still in camp and Leedy was governor of Kansas. "The Populists and Democrats were anxious to do camp duty in Cuba on account of the big salaries, but the Kansas boys who were Republicans wanted to get back home and vote. "Our captain had died and I had received about eighty votes for one of the commissions in the company, but the assignment went to a first sergeant, who was a Democrat. With Petition to Washington. "I said nothing, but quietly got up a petition and had it signed by about 800 of the boys. This petition I took to Washington, D. C. On arriving at Washington, a 20-year-old boy, I was somewhat awed at first at the importance of my mission. The first thing I did was to clean up and get my clothes pressed. "I then went to the White House where I told the doorman, John Legge, that I wanted to get back to Kansas. The doorman told me o wal a moment and secured an interview for me with Secretary Porter. "I told Secretary Porter that I preferred to go to Fort Meyer rather than to Cuba. President and Mrs. William McKinley were standing near the door of Secretary Porter's office. "I bowed to the president, told him I was glad to see Mrs. McKinley looking so well and told him how the Twenty-second Kansas had taken the ```markdown ``` T. D.

"When I had finished I turned and saw a gruff-looking man standing alongside of me, who happened to be a major in the army. I thought that I was in for it. "The president said: 'Take this sergeant to the Army and Navy building and have a special order made out for the muster rolls and transportation of the Twenty-second and Twenty-first Kansas regiments to be made out at once and have the regiments sent to Leavenworth.' "I also was given my honorable discharge and $144 travel pay. The boys were sent out all over Kansas and we got back in time to beat the Democrats and Populists."

MASON) --- The American 'Negro' is not far enough removed from slavery and it's benevolent influence to tackle international questions. Garvey's program, the ever so good, will not get the support from the Negroes of this country, that it should. But one thing about the matter is, we must all concede, he has done more to arrest the attention of the Negro as to his real condition in this country than anything we know of. It is immaterial as to what section of the world he halls, he is an unadulterated Negro. There has ever been some 'scare-trow' to prevent the Negro from moving out of this sordid condition that enslaves him. The Illinois massacre is no more than an echo of the lynching which has been perpetrated on the defenseless Negro with impunity. The lynching institution has reached that point where it knows no color, section, sex or social status. America is caught in the cruel hands of immutable destruction. The finger of Fate points inerringly to the down fall of this Republic. The hand writing is on the wall and there is not a Daniel to read it Every conference, congress and international confess only speeds up the down fall. We are against the movies as presented to our young people, as a general rule, the pictures are often of such that they appeal to the passion of hate, immorality, thieveshiness, dissipation and all around letting down of the murals. We should now start preparing for the coming winter. The last few months should be sufficient to make the house strong at take heed. We have been the fool prodigy for all races. The time is at hand when we should slow in our spending of money. It is no longer sensible for the money to make big investments in the south. World he I have your in to out please have simple and desirable. Each day brings into realization, the fact that we are less in this country. The tools who are pleasing opportunities to our race, can not point in anything that justice the dream of hope. It is one of those lies so often told until the individual believes his own lie. Those who have anylized the matter, see nothing to feel proud about. The N A A C P could have used to an advantage the many thousands of dollars the race is giving the railroads, galvanizing all over the country to denominational meetings. The money spent at St Louis and New Orleans to off a church meeting would enable the society to make an effective gesture in believe of the American Negro. But the products must have their summer trips and comforts. The financial conditions of the secret orders are far from satisfaction. The waste of money creating movements to graft, delays in paying just Mr. Voiland is known by all the people in Topeka, and he would appreciate your support.

They are still going into Meycau with much numbers and continuation. That stuff about Obregon not wanting the Negro in Mexico was not only a lie but pernicious and dirty.

Men Who Are Seeking Political Preferment at the August Primary MORGAN FOR GOVERNOR Wilbur Hawk, Manager of the Morgan Governor Campaign says Morgan has won the race and only awaits the count. Here is what Ex-Congressman Charles Scott of the second district says of him: "Entirely aside from his position on the Industrial Court law the Register finds it easy to support Mr. Morgan, First of all there is the long time personal friendship running back to the old K. U. days when we were all so happy and so pore" and coming on down to the present without a break. And then there is the fact that a life time spent in Kansas and long and honorable connection with the public J. affairs of the state have ample qualified Mr. Morgan for the duties he will be required to perform as Governor. Nobody knows Kansas sentiment better than Mr. Morgan does, or is in more complete sympathy with its ambitions and aspirations, and few are more familiar with the manner in which its business affairs are conducted. As presiding officer of the Senate while lieutenant governor, he displayed tact and skill and leadership. As the editor of an influential newspaper his discussion of public questions has been marked by sound sense and a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of good government. He has an exceptionally wide personal acquaintance and is a pleasing, persuasive public speaker. He has made a success of his own business and that he would apply his native and acquired ability to the single purpose of making a success of the business of the State in carne of his election, of course, goes without saying. For all these reasons, therefore, but chiefly for the reason that he stands square-toed for the most important measure Kansas has placed upon is statute books for a generation, the Register is for W. Y. Morgan for Governor." In a Statement in the Atchison Daily Globe, Sunday, April 30th. W. J. Bailey, former governor of Kansas, came out yesterday with a hearty endorsement of W. Y. Morgan, of Hutchinson as candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. "I expect to support Mr. Morgan," said Governor Bailey, "because I consider him the best equipped of any one of the gentlemen spoken of who have any show to win. "His whole life has been spent in Kansas, and he has made a success of his life's work. He is a thorough student of public affairs and knows the needs of Kansas. "I believe he will make Kansas a conservative, yet a forward looking governor of all the people, as no particular class has any strings on him. "I predict that he will be nominated and elected and will reflect honor upon his state and his friends." He is meeting with success everywhere. He has stood for the principles of his party all of his life. His paper, The Hutchinson Evening News is one of the most loyal papers in Kansas and the west in upholding the principle of the Republican party, never bolted his party Nominees or the Platforms written in Conventions. We have watched his course for years. When you vote for him you for a true Republican. Signed by a Voter. BERT WALKER, STATE PRINTER. Bert Walker, State Printer is up for reelection without opposition. He is a staunch Kansan. He has done much fro the uplift of his party, to make it what it is. T. A. McNEAL, REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR. Lower Taxes Essential I do not wonder that the people who have to bear the burden of taxation often feel sore and seek relief. So far as I have been able to talk with taxpayers they do not seem to me to be radical and unreasonable. Of course there are radical and unreasonable people, but they are not in the majority. Now the important question is, how is relief to be found. The Mate spends a great deal of money but the total state taxes amount to less than 10 per cent of the total taxes paid by the average taxpayer. We can reduce the public burden of maintaining the higher educational institutions by 2 or 3 million dollars a year and at the same time make it possible for the poorest boy of fair ability, industry and character to get an education in one of these institutions. We can reduce the expense of the courts of the state by more than $100,000 a year and serve the people better than they are served now. We can consolidate boards and abolish offices effecting a saving of perhaps $50,000 to $60,0000 more. We could do away with the Industrial Court, making a further saving of perhaps $100,000 per year. We can revise our tax system so that intangible property will bear its proportion of the burden. We can establish a reasonable state income tax that will place a greater part of the burden on the shoulders of those best able to bear it and relieve those who have at present to bear an unjust proportion. We might revise our whole taxation system so that double taxation would be avoided and the necessary burdens equalized. These are great and perplexing problems. To solve them aright requires a great deal of careful thought and good judgement. Personally I am glad to see the taxpayers interested. They may make mistakes. It would be most remarkable if they do not, but they are not wild-eyed radicals or anarchists. They are just plain, really conservative men, who desire to do the right thing and get rid of some of the burden which is weighing too heavily on them. If nominated and elected governor I should expect to give my time the best I have in me to the service of the state. I do not say that I can solve these problems. I can only say I will try. T. A. MCNEAL. HON. D. W. MULYANE. [Image of a man in a suit with a tie and a hat, looking slightly to the right. The background is a plain, light-colored surface. There are no visible texts or markings.]] Hon D. W. Mulvane, Republican National Committee for the State of Kansas, says, the Republicans of Kansas have no right to feel alarmed, for the Republican administration at Washington is keeping all pledges made to the public. Mr. Mulvane is one of the staunch supporters of the Republican principles in the Harding administration. Since the resignation of Postmaster Generalll Hayes, as Chairman of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Mulvane has been called upon to assist in carrying on the work of National Committee, and has been in Washington the greater part of this administration. He is considered by his party as being one of the most far seeing and most diplomatic workers of the party. He can do more things, and bring more things to pass with more ease, than any other man in the work. He always measure the distance and counts the cost before he starts. He is one of the best informed men on the issues of today. He makes a commanding study of the problems necessary to make his party a success. J. B. Senator Capper, Friend of Humanity; and a Power in.the U. S. Senate. Hon. D. R. Anthony has announced his candidacy for congress for the First District. He has served a number of years, and has been nominated by his party without opposition. He is now serving on some of the most New York, July 1. Threading the traffic during Fifth avenue's most crowded hour, a woman was confused and stopped directly in the path of swifly moving automobiles. Crowds on the sidewalk looked on with horror or turned away from what appeared to be an inevitable fatality, but one man dashed thru the vehicles seized the woman by the arm and dragged her back to safety. Dazed by her sudden and unexpected delivery she failed to thank her rescur. A traffic policeman was more alert. He stopped the man after he had taken a dozen steps and asked his name. The stranger, who was a Negro, turned. "Are you going to arrest me?" he asked. "No," said the officer. That was a brave act, and I want to report it." "Just say a black man did it," he Hon. Arthur Capper is now serving his first term in the Senate, and is making one of the best in the Senate of the United States. He is a high class, Christian gentleman and a scholar. He stands four square for human rights. If one hundredth of J. the people of this country were like him in disposition there would be no strife anywhere. In him the colored people have an undying faith and respect for loyalty and fight for the right. He is standing for the farmer, the laboring man, and the business man, and wants all to have a square deal. He means for the colored people to be a part of these three propositions. If the black man had his rights, there would be no need of special agitation or legislation for his special benefit. But the American white man has drawn a line by which all races in the United States are recognized as citizens and have equal rights in the eyes of the law except the black man. We hope the time will soon come when the Supreme important committees in the House, and his friends and backers, say that he satisfies them, and they intend to send him back to Washington, to represent them. He is a loyal Republican. said and turned away. He was Dr. Robert Russa Minton, successor of Booker T. Washington as head of the Tuskegee institute, major in the American army during the war and one of the foremost figures of his race in America. TAXICABS Buicks and Fords PHONE 957 The Checker Cab & Baggage Co. 427-29 JACKSON STREET friend of Humanity; the U. S. Senate. court of the United States will be called upon to give a thorough test to the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution of the United States. No state has a right to draw line of discrimination on all races except one. Senator Capper is the only out spoken man in the State willing to give the colored man his rights along with other races. It is also one of the greatest newspaper men in the world and has succeeded in organizing all the farm journals in the world and conducting them under one management. In the conduct of his business Senator Capper has set down certain principles in the main visualized by the one word "service." This word visualizes the foundation and frame-work upon which he has built his success. Belief in service was the capital with which he started. Everybody in the plant at Topcha or in the several branch officers knows the main things that go to make up the Capper service creed. As to the details of carrying out these principles, Senator Capper is not particularly interested. He leaves these strictly up to the men and women themselves, and the result has been the development of initiative and an unusual amount of loyally among his employees, a loyalty that is spontaneous rather than forced. The employees constitute, not in name only, but in fact, a big "Capper Family." Here is his business slogan. He says: "My chief aim is to make a steadfast friend of every man, woman and child who subscribes for or advertises in my papers, or transacts business of any nature with my office; the underlying principle that has built up the Capper business is to treat everybody square and not knowingly have one dissatisfied patron." When it is considered that Senator Capper has about three and one-half million subscribers to his several publications the job of keeping "every man, woman and child a steadfast friend" might seem a little difficult. But that's the aim of the Capper organization and it is carried out to the letter. · County Commissioner (SOUTH DISTRICT) to fill the unexpired term of the late H. W. McAffeeb.

Beatrice Creamery Company Topeka, Kansas Meadow Gold Butter CHURNED FRESH DAILY Topeka, Kansas, May 24, 1922 Governor Pat Neff, My notice has been called to the lynching and burning of three colored men near Mexico, Texas, charged with murdering a woman. While the press dispatches claimed it was a white woman, it made no difference what race of people she was identified, the lynching was wrong. The sooner the white man learns to respect the rights of all the people, regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude, the better off everyone will be. It seems as tho they had selected the American colored man to be the goat for all crimes and outrages committed. Punishment is meeted out to him, while white men and those of other nationalities commit some of the most heinous crimes and the law is allowed to take its course. I have noticed for some time that the most heinous crimes committed in this country are committed by white men and yet the law takes its course. A colored man has only to be suspected, especially in the South, and he is speedily dealt with, with out judge or jury. I am at a loss to know how a man of your standing—chief executive of Texas—who takes an oath and swears to uphold the constitution of the U. E. and Texas, and is honor bound to maintain the dignity of the state by enforcing the law, does not take the necessary steps to protect all creatures alike. While most of the governors of the South take the same oath and obligation, none of them keep it. A state that will pass "Jim Crow" laws for one set of people and exempt all others, does not have decent respectable law making bodies and are not fit to be called honest men. Furthermore, it is criminal and disreputable for a person holding office to violate the oath of that office by allowing such crimes to be committed and making such a feeble attempt to apprehend the perpetrators of such crimes. I am sorry that you have failed in the wake of all southern governors in carrying out the sentiment of the disreputable class of whites who have no respect of conscience when it comes to dealing out justice to the black man. Of all the benign and offensive crimes in the annals of history, the worse are committed by the white man, and yet the southern white man has the cheek and gaud to herald to the world that the colored man is not only a criminal, but the worse criminal in this country, and you voice this by standing by and seeing them lynch and burn colored men at the stake for the more fact that he has been charged by a mob of ignorant, vicious white men who have no regard for law or man. As long as such men as you are elected as governors and other executives in office, men who claim to be leaders of law and order and virtue and followers of Christ, and yet continue to wink and countenance such crimes, this country will be continually looked upon as one which is unfit for decent, respectable people to live in, and soon all of the good people will be compelled to move from its borders to safer and saner continents, where people have respect for law and order. As soon as the South is awakened to a sense of duty and right then the world will prosper. The most diabolical deeds, benjous crimes and the meanest people on the globe come from Texas and the South. Russia and Japan, are a heaven besides Texas, Georgia and other Southern states that I might mention. I am writing you this letter in good faith and hope that God may yet direct you and those who are haters of the colored people to be like Saul of Tarsus, shown the light and before it is too late turn to those whom you have prosecuted and say that you are wrong; shake hands and make up and make Texas a better place to live in. I shall expect a reply, and remain. Editor Topeka Plaindealer President, Kansas Defense Society Negro Pilgrims Held Services at Lake Placid, N. Y. Homestead. From New York World. Negro pilgrims from all parts of Americagathered at Lake Placid, N. Y., recently to commemorate the one hundred and twenty-second anniversary of John Brown's birth. The visitors gathered at the historic homestead and with simple services honored the memory of the man whose corps in Osawatomi, Kansas ended Harper's Ferry, Va. gave great memorial to the movement which coordinated in the Civil War. The commemoration services were under the auspices of the National Association of the Advancement of Colored People. Although the anniversary was celebrated so quietly that scarcity in the village of Placid I take itself was aware of the function. It has made such a Addison-dack Country and the visitors, white persons and Negroes, from outside, that it has been determined the services shall be repaired and that all races and people interested in the principles of freedom for which John Brown died I should be invited to participate. Plans now under consideration make it probable that persons who believe in the principle of self-determination will go each year from all parts of the world to the remote mountain hamlet which started its career almost a century ago as a sanctuary for refugee slaves from the South. John Brown's body lies in Lake Placid in the front yard of the bleak little farmhouse he left unfinished when he went to his death at Harper's Ferry. His grave is marked by a huge boulder upon which he often rested at the end of an arduous day's struggle with the sterile mountain acres. Around his grave are buried the men who gave up their lives with him in the struggle at Harper's Fer MINNEAPELIS, MINN. (Dy A. C.

Republican Ticket [Image of a man in profile, wearing a dark suit and a hat, with a serious expression. The background is a blurred, dark area with no discernible features.] Hon. W. R. Stubbs, candidate for Governor, is stirring Kansas from arm to stern says his manager, J. H. Dollard. He says there is no doubt of his nomination. He is making a tour of the entire state. J. N. Dolley today gave out a statement telling why he is supporting W. R. Stubbs and why he believes Stubbs is the man the people want for governor. In his statement, Dolley, who has been prominent in business and Republican political circles for years, said: "I am supporting W. R. Stubbs for governor because I believe him to be the best qualified and best equipped man asking for the nomination at the August primary. "He served Kansas for six years as Governor and practically the unanimous opinion of the people was, and is, that he was one of the best Governors Kansas ever had. "Kansas voters are about to select a new chief executive, and at this time there are a great many important problems regarding the state's business, and its efficient, economic, and proper management, which are confronting the voters of Kansas. Stubbe knows the problems of the people and their wants. When Governor, he enforced the laws of Kansas as they had never been enforced before. He has demonstrated The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a person's face, but no discernible features or details can be seen. W. R. STUBBS beyond the denial of his enemies, that he has the courage to act in the interest of the people, and the laws that were put on the statute books during the period that he was in the legislature and governor before, are the greatest testimonials of his clear vision of the needs of Kansas. By their works, ye shall know them, is still true. "Stubbs has not made a fortune from sta'e offices with which to go out and make an extensive campaign for his nomination. Instead of this, he lost a large fortune raising grain, hogs and cattle on the urgent demand of the government to feed the American soldiers and sailors during the world war. In this he did as thousands of Kansas farmers and stockmen did, and he has gone through every financial difficulty* they have gone through. He knows how hard he been their struggle and what they and need from their state government. There is no man in Kansas of n experience and ability who knows the needs of the Kansas farmer better than toobs. And Kansas, if this great state is to continue great and prosperous and progressive must enforce all laws necessary to protect the rights and promote the welfare of the homes as well as the business interests of Kansas, must give labor a square deal, and give proper and just consideration to the needs, and rights, of the agricultural and live stock in interests of the state. "I am for Stubbs because I think he is the man the people want for Governor. But I would advise the women and men of Kansas to read the public record of W. R. Stubbs as their former governor and member of the legislature, and then decide whether they want to engage his services again. If they consistently review his record of ten years of public service, they will vote for Stubbs and Kansas. "I believe beyond question that Stubbs is the leading candidate for the nomination at this time. The sentiment that is so rapidly growing in his favor shows to me that the voters of Kansas are alive to their best interests and are for Stubbs. PLATFORM OF W. R. STUBBS Republican Candidate For Governor (Subject to August 1st Primaries) I am a candidate for. Governor of Kansas, subject to the Republican primaries, on the basis of my record during six years of service in the legislature and four years in the Governor's office. The public record of a candidate is the acid test, and is the best evidence of the value of his platform promises for future service. The best guarantee of what a public official will do in the future is what he has done in the past. I refer with pardonable pride to a long list of beneficial laws, tested and approved, in the making of which I had an active part. Also to an economical, efficient and strictly business-like administration during four years in the Governor's office. The Republican administration at Washington, and especially President Harding and Secretary Hughes, and our Kansas delegation of senators and congressmen, deserve high commendation for service rendered our own nation and the whole world. The Disarmament Conference will go down in history as one of the great efforts in behalf of humanity. Agriculture, the basic industry of our land, has received more consideration than was ever given it before. Efficiency and economy in our government is rapidly ```markdown ``` replacing indifference and extravagance. Our national administration has set a splendid example to the states by reducing expenses of the federal government millions of dollars, which reduces federal taxes to that extent. Kansas should adopt the same program of economy and retrenchment, including the General Dawes budget plan. STATE INSTITUTIONS I favor maintaining all state institutions on an efficient, economical, business like basis without the expenditure of one dollar that is not necessary for proper maintenance and natural growth and development. Some of the many laws that W. R. Stubbs fought for and helped to pass: Law Reducing Freight Rates Anti-Pass Law Two-Cent Passenger Fare Public Utilities Law Blue Sky Law Pork Guarantee Law Workmens Compensation Act Juvenile Court Law Child Welfare Law Woman Suffrage Amendment Strict Liquor Laws Law Abolishing State Printer's Pets. Board of Control Act Direct Primer Law Negotiable Instrument Law Game and Fish Law RACE MAN SPEAKS FOR STUBBG What Emnett Page of Eskridge, a graduate of the State Agricultural College of Manhattan, Kansas, and one of Wabaunsee's progressive young farmers says. He was clerk in the Bank Commissioner's office with Ion, J. N. Dolley under the Stubbs Administration and was never treated better. This is the only Republican State Administration of Kansas in the last twenty years that ever appointed a Colored man to a clerical position and none since. This is the reason I can for Stubbs. I am for the Republican who is fair to all. It is high time that the Colored Republicans should be reconciled. READ THE PLAINDEALER YOUR RACE PAPER $150 Per Year. The people of Kansas should be grateful to Governor Allen for the appointment of Mr. Bert P. Walker, to fill the unexpired term of the late Imrl Zumwalt. Mr. Walker has spaired no paints in putting the printing plant on a high scale and is saving the taxpayers from one hundred and seventy-five to two hundred thousand dollars a year. He is a member of the textbook commission and the law makes him chairman. He found Mr. McNeal performing that duty when he took charge, and is perfectly satisfied for him to continue in that place. He states that the plant is saving thousands of dollars in the pockets of the school patrons who are buying books now, far below the book trust prices. Mr. Walker was born in Wisconsin, in 1873, came to Kansas with his parents in 1877 and first settled in Pea- 11. Earl P. Walker. body, Marion county. His father was one of the Kansas pioneer printers and taught his son the newspaper profession, which he has followed from that time on. He moved to Osborne county in 1897. After purchasing the Osborne County Farmor, which he now owns and is one of the most influential journals in the west. Mr. Walker is a forceful writer and his editorials have gone the rounds of the most important papers of the country. He was for two years with the Daily Capital and can lay claim to helping it on to its present success. He is a staunch Republican and has stood on the firing line and fought the battles when they looked hopeless. He never that the party owed him anything for he has never sought office. Some years ago, he was appointed on the Irrigation Board and was afterwards elected and the legislature abolished the office, therefore the office of State Printer is the first real political office he has ever held. He is very popular with the people, is a fine, dignified, courageous gentleman who has no semblance of (Robert) and can be relied upon to do just what he says. The employees which number something over one hundred and forty, and all departments, are moving like clockwork, for he means business and treats all on the square. He has four colored employees, of which one is the most skilled shipping clerk and packer in this section. We hope some day to see colored printers employed and when the opportunity comes Mr. Walker will place them there because it is a public office. Mr. Walker is a great lodge man, a Mason with most of the degrees, a member of the Elk's and also a number of Civic organizations. He has a wife and two daughters, whose company he enjoys and whose home life is like the Scripture JOHN SOUTHERN, Jr. CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY COM MISSIONER S.

One of Kansas' and Topeka's native sons who has climbed every round of the ladder of progress until he is arrived at the top most ring where all citizens take their hats off to do him honor. And rightly does he do it. Just a short while ago he journeyed to California and while it is off place was active and on the alert looking after the interests of Topeka and Laramie if he had been in the city and state. His friends and fine work in connection with the Vicory Highway will worthy of commemoration. That in his nothing and never forget the state of Kansas will come to its share of the benefits of the benefits of the highway. The valuation of the 34th legislative district warrants a man to assist in making laws that would be beneficial to all. One who had no personal love to grind; one who would make an honest sacrifice to make others happy as well as himself one who is free from corporate or private interests, one whose hands would freely finish at the mere subjection of tainted money. This is the kind of man all Free people in her legislative halls. This is the caliber of man who G.O.W. Stansfield has proven to be. He is now president of the Chamber of Commerce, having received 87 percent of the votes cast and never sought the office. He is at the head of the Victory Highway which extends from New York to Frisco States Western University The location is id. near Kane City. The buildings are modern brick structures, stucco heated and electric lighted. The following courses are offered: ACADEMIC, NORMAL— FULL, FOUR YEARS COLLEGIATE, with degree.

JESSE PECK, President have complied with the requirements thru which this highway passes, all with the exception of poor old Missouri, who needs it more than any other. Mr. Stansfield has at his command more than $5000 to make this highway a success as far as Kansas is concerned. Without any noise or brass band ceremony, he is going right ahead in his quite and unassuming manner and is putting it over. The portion that is completed in Shawnee county has caused thousands of dollars to be spent in Topeka which would have gone elsewhere. The people of California gave him a great ovation for his masterpiece of work in this section and are raising over two hundred thousand dollars to push the work. His parents were among the first settlers of Topeka, having stopped on North side of the river. He attended the common schools, but did not have time nor money to finish college, so he applied himself to books and business and burned the midnight oil while most boys played and idled their time away. He associated with the Arnold drug company, at that time the leading drug store on the north side and in Topeka. He read and studied pharmacy and soon passed the State Board of Pharmacy, Twenty-eight years ago, he started in the drug business at the south side of the present location, 623 Kansas avenue. It is one of the finest drug stores in the West. He owns the building, employs seventeen people and enjoys a large and substantial trade. He is a member of the Masonic family and has about all of the degrees. He is also an influential Elk and a member of many other organizations, which are too numerous to mention. His real pleasure is the companionship of his wife and daughter who vie with each other to make home a heaven on earth. THOMAS M'NEAL Editor of the Mall and Breeze, announces himself candidate for governor, and is conducting a campaign from the editorial chair. He is one of Kansas earliest citizens. He has helped to make Kansas History and is now asking the people for the high honor of being their governor, and finish the half century of Kansas History. Kansas needs strong men like him. JUDGE SILAS PORTER Efficient and Qualified SERVICES OF GREAT VALUE Judge Silas Porter, a member of this court, is a candidate for re-election, and his services on the bench have been of great value to the state. We would like to see Judge Porter nominated and re-elected.-The Goodland Republic, May 4. Who "Lives in a House by the Side of the Road and is a Friend of Man" Justice Porter was first appointed to the Supreme Court by Governor Hoch to fill a vacancy. Although having seventeen years to his credit on the bench, Judge Porter is still a young and vigorous man, in the full strength of his mental and physical powers, and the state is fortunate in having so capable and experienced a servant willing to continue in its service.

William Allen White in Emporia Gazette: The Kansas Supreme Court never seems to have trouble following its conscience. It always finds a good law for good morals. When one considers the misgovernment of other states, and compares it to the uniform decency and honesty and general good sense of government in Kansas, during long stretches of years one wonders if the fundamental honesty and courage of our Kansas Supreme Court is not greatly responsible for our distinction. For governors come and go, parties rise and fall, political dynasties appear and fade away, but the Kansas Supreme Court being somewhat of a continuous body, prevails year after year, decade after decade, and in its study chief justice it stands—a great rock in a weary land—generation after generation.—Reprinted in Topeka Daily Capital, May 18.

Lambertson is announcing himself candidate for governor. He is making a state-wide tour of the state and below is a short sketch of his work. Kansas farmers are taking a serious look into the records, locations and business activities of the various governorship candidates. As the date for the state-wide primaries approaches, it is rapidly becoming more apparent that the people who are actively engaged in farm pursuits will demand a real dirt farmer for governor. Of the seven candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor, W. P. Lambertson of Fairview, is the only person actually engaged in farming. To be sure there are several "farmer" candidates. Yet not one of them has shocked an acre of wheat, pitched a load of hay or plowed a row of corn in thirty years. All of Lambertson's opponents live in first class cities. Lambertson has a real knowledge of State affairs and needs through his years of service as a member of the State Legislature and Speaker of the House. In 1917 he served on Gov- A. B. W. P. LAMBERTSON For Governorerner Capper's Efficiency and Economy Committee. There is no longer doubt but that a coalition exists to retain the present regime in control in the State House. Lambertson is the man the present administration is most anxious to defeat. It is know in the State House that he will fight for retrenchments and elimination of the present expensive system of useless boards and commissions. HON. TOM D. SMITH The Great American Orator—Candidate For Attorney General From the Crusader. We congratulate the Republicans of the State of Kansas in having such an accomplished lawyer as Tom D. Smith as their standard bearer in the primary contest for the Attorney General of the State of Kansas. Nowhere in the whole United States of America have our race of people a truer or better friend. He has been the unbridled champion of the colored people's rights for years. His candidacy for the nomination for this important office should strongly appeal to every colored voter in Kansas. It should also appeal to all the fair-minded white Republican voters who should give him unstinted support on the day of the primary election. He is one of the most accomplished speakers on the American stage today. While campaigning for President Harding in the 1920 Campaign in the State of Delaware, thousands of voters from Virginia, Pennsylvania and Maryland traveled many miles to hear this convincing and elquent orators. Tom D. Smith has dug down deep in the tranches of true Republicanism for many years. He has never yet subbed in his tent in carrying the gospel of Republicanism to the people of our State and his country. At theRepublican National Conventions of 1916 and 1920, Mr. Smith was the most popular statesman from the West, and his sound views were sought by those who lived in other sections of the country. All eyes are now turned on Kansas and if the Republicans do their duty and nominate their greatest statesman for Attorney General, there will be great rejoicing in many sections of the country over Mr. Smith's victory.
