Now that Govornor Dietrich of Ne
braska has Imjou elocted to tho United
States senate some Kansas City peoplo
who passed him up two months ago aro
wondering if this is not the time to sond
lilm a letter and explain things It was
tho occasion of tho visit of General 1
Fitzhugh Leo Tho gonerals party did
not arrive until lato In tho afternoon
and an oaily public diuner was planned
for him with a nomi stato street parado
saudwiched In all of which niado tho
local committee qnlto busy In and
about tho Baltimore hottl where tho
general was stopping there wore great
guns and popguns and genrrals and
judges and colonels galore with an oc
casional governor with Crit tendon as
tho loan The consequence of all this
was that whon a mild looking gentle
man with a f Hghtly German cast of
countonanco and a soldierly bearing re-
inarKod to a member of tho reception
committeo that he was anxious to get
au early word with General Leo adding
that ho waK Governor Dietrich no
further attention was jiaid to tho an
nouncement than toasMire tho gentlo
man tho interview would be arranged
And it was Governor Dietrich
stood about and occasionally took part
in bomo little anecdotal conversation re
garding tho expected visitor tho general
not having arrived aud while the recep
tion committeeman could remember he
had Fiuel ho was Govornor somebody
or othor ho could not recall tho namo
Therefore no tronblo was taken to iutro
dnco him tho inference being that ho
wore tho title in tho houornry way some
colonels and judges do
But by ginger said President C 1
Schmeizer yesterlay it was tho gov
ernor of Nebraska all right ouough i
saw him at tho Uitltimoio and had a
little talk with him but never did it
occur to mo that he was tho newly
elected governor of Nobraskn I know
all about Dockery aud Flory and Stan
ley and Broid nhul and I managed to
recall the namo of Earnes of Oklahoma
but Diotrich was tho now one to me
The man who brought him tome did not
lay any stress on the wed governor
so we all lot it go at that Hundreds if
not thousands of Kansas Cityans saw
him sitting in the lobby of tho Balti
more but not n man Missonrian Kan
sasan or Nebraskau could point him out
to us and he was so darned modest ho
did not give us a tip He might have
known the stnte motto We have to be
shown and let us in on his secret BuJ
thero ho sat n howling majority in his
pocket and a governors commiEPion at
homo and let us pass him up We did
not even invito him to dinner
Smoke but you could have knocked
mo down with a feather whon at the
presidents inaugural I next saw this
man Dietncn Tne name is not com
mon so I remembered it When I
looked on my program and saw tho next
person to pass wab Governor Dietrich
and that same face came along at the
head of tho Nebrask 1 contingent that
was the time I felt like bitting down and
drinking a glas of cool water There
to think of it in KnusiiH City we had
not a single man of us shaken hands
with him aud yet nrouud me were teiife
of thousands of people yelling their
throats hoarse calling his nnme He
sat on a magnificent horse bowed right
and left was as big a man as any of tho
western governors and looked the part
Did you yell for him
I did when I got my breath I yelled
like the very devil I gave a yell for
every blamed man on that reception
committee and two for tho chairman
We will have to get him down here for
a dinner before he goes to Washington
Maybe ho will help us get the army
headquarters here

club looked faint Kansas City Journal
