If it goes through Senator Thompson will be the big boss of Democratic politics in Kansas. Beside him the state machine, in the event that Governor Jlodges is re-elected, will be small change. Thompson's ambition is to be an overlord in politics and the plan is in line with his ambition. That fact alone lends credence to the charges that there is a Thompson-Neeley combination, and there is plenty of additional evidence to support them.

Small wonder the Democrats outside the combination are hot under their Jacksonian collars. There are two flaws in the Thomp-son-Neeley plan, either of which is likely to beat it. One is that the Seventh district gentlemen got their machine in working order too late. Treasurer Menno Seaman, Bloom- der their respective parties. REPUBLICAN PARTY.
