William Allen White offers his views on recent events in Kansas politics. White finds the Republican party at present to be in better condition than at any time in a dozen or more years because it is now without factions or cliques. He credits the change to a “head-on collision” comprised of the mutually timed withdrawal of Governor Willis Joshua Bailey, “a good man,” and the indictment of Senator Joseph Ralph Burton, “a bad man.” He speculates on the future of the party, predicting a shift from the “House of Albaugh” to the “House of Hoch.”
