Congressman Fred S. Jackson, Embodiment of “Kansas Spirit”

CONGRESSMAN FRED 8. JACKSON of Kansas typifies the state. He - represents the best that Kansas has produced. He is the embodiment Of the “Kansas spirit” He is the man who hushed forever the insinuation, “You can get anything you want in Kansas.” He made the laws of that state mean just what they say, and, tn a sense, that justifies the use of the term. It is universally conceded now that Kansas is “dry.** Fred Jackson believes in bls state, In her people, in law and the order that law is Intended to promote everywhere. There are thousands of people in the Sun-

flower State who are looking toward the day when Jackson will be their governor, because not all the work that requires strong, red blooded men has been completed in that famous western state. On the afternoon of the sixth day of the Lincoln Chautauquas he will discuss the, subject “You, 1 and Uncle Sam,” which is merely another way of saying ‘government by the people.” In the evening he will answer the widely asked question, “What Is the Kansas Spirit?" Both events are exceptionally Important because In each case a man of unusual qualifications and spirit is to discute a subject that Involves the happiness and success of every person under the stars and stripes. But, withal, Mr. Jackson’s remarks will not be made in the spirit of the politician nor yet in the cold manner of the philosopher. He is a gripping, interesting, delightful speaker who makes his subject as live as the people who hear him. An hour Is but a moment in length when Jackson Is on the platform In the Chautauqua tent.
