William Allen White writes about the competition in the Republican primary in Emporia, Kansas. There was no real opposition to James M. Miller for Congress, just a small anti-Miller faction. White believes that if Miller appoints a good postmaster – and he has many good candidates from which to choose – the people will be satisfied. He also praises the work that President Roosevelt has done and predicts that Roosevelt will carry Kansas in 1904 if he runs.
