Bowersock of Lawrence is opposed to the movement to draft Theodore Roosevelt for a third term and refuses to get involved with the group promoting that development. He says his first presidential vote was for Abe Lincoln, his last for Roosevelt, but he adds he is not in favor of another term for Roosevelt. : Cy Leland and Charles Curtis have control of who will be named to fill Curtis’ term in the U.S. House.

The choice for his House successor will be interesting. :The earthquake disaster in Jamaica grows and the toll of death is now past 1,200.
