In my open at that time I showed documents that the article was untrue, and 1 further stated that it had been charged that you did not not write ‘What Is the Matter With Kansas?' " In his “‘comeback” at White, Senator Willlam Allen printed untrue few years ago, had to admit letter to you by different same one Curtis also made long list of other charges against the Emporian, among them one to the effect that White was sent to Washington to use his influ- ence in behalf of a candidate for Post- master, and that within forty-eight hours after his arrival in the National capital he went to Senator Curtis and urged the Senator to use his influence to get himself appointed to the place. We would have liked Senator Curtis's letter better if he had not referred to the editor’s being caned by an old soldier and horsewhipped by a woman and having belittled McKinley. It is not important that an editor was caned by an old soldier and horsewhipped by a woman. Any man would cane him or a woman horsewhip him if that is what they wanted have to let an old soldier {to do. It might be important to know why the caning and horsewhipping, but it is fair to as- sume that if there had been disgraceful conduct behind it the Senator would have mentioned it It may be that there were just differences of opinions. That, also, could account for “belit- tling the great McKinley. Senator Curtis weak- ened his case by trying to make it too strong. It is not likely that Gov. Lindbergh seeks the of private residences when he makes a town for the sake of economy.

John Roach William Allen White had attacked other the worst of it before saying mean thing: Gov. Smith and then retracting them bec didn't want to hurt the feelings of the Governor, “likes immensely” and for whom he has .“high' regard.” The Emporia editor had a run- in with Senator Curtis, now Republican Vice- A Presidential nominee, few years ago, and was rather severely, if not altogether logically, handled by the Topeka political leader who now running on the ticket that must be sup- ported if Gov. Smith is defeated. A recent New York Worll contains the following dispatch from Topeka, Kunsas: With William editor, amusing by making attac Straton, and got about use he whom he a is Allen White, Emporia himself in New York m the record of Gov. Smith when he was an Assemblyman, Carl J. Peterson, former Kan ate Bank Commissioner, digging up rec- ords in the files of the Kansas His- torical Society, which show how White formerly amused himselg by making sim- ilar attacks on Senator Charles Curtis, Republican Vice-Presidential candidate, and how Curtis “chewed up” Mr. White in a more vicious manner than Gov. 3 Smith has attempted to do, Peterson publishing this week in his newspaper, the Kansas State News, a full account of the tilt White and Curtis had in 1912, when White attacked the Congressinal record of Curtis, and when Curtis replied with a personal attack which he compelled Mr. White o to publish in his own newspaper. In an article carrying the heading of “The Strange Case of Curtis,” the files in the State Historical Society show that Mr. White accused the present Vice-Presidential candidate of having misrepresented the people of the State by voting in Congress with Aldrich, Lorimer, Guggenheim and Smoot. July 17, 1912, White torial in the Emporia “So we find Cur progress that Kansas made a bound boy at the husking; bound by the chains that welded his nomination to the great interests he served in the Senate.

In his reply Senator Curtis said of White: “If the people of Kansas knew you as the people of Lyon County know you, or if they knew you as I do, I would pay no attention to your false and mis- leading letter. Before 1 dissect your letter it is my purpose to let the people know something about you “I am informed you are the William A. White of Emporia who was caned by an old seldier in the streets of Emporia. It is said the job was so well done and 8o pleasing to the people of Emporia that they bought the brave old soldier a gold-headed cane to take the place of the ope he used on you.

That epigrammatic declartion is questioned by no one informed in the history of business and commercial development. It is a statement of fact, obvious and indisputable.

Advertising brings buyers and quality; service and advantageous prices keep them.
