TO the Brothers and Sisters IN Kansas;
Owing to some misunderstanding 1t is
not generally understood that our adver-
tlsed meetings are open to anyone who
desires to attend. Education and CO.
operation is the universal tendency of
public sentiment. If there is any reason
for this great uprising among the COM
mon people we should be able to explain
1t to others. Labor In its various forms
has been conceded the high honor Of be-
ing the creator and preserver Of all free
institutions. We therefore should grant
to all men honesty Of purpose, whatever
their occupations In life may be, remem-
bering that under similar circumstances
we should have thought and acted as
they. You have right to your opinion
and we have q right to ours, WRtH zoe are
pr0Ues to be a0rOng.
Come everyone, let us reason together.
Ladies' and merchants especially invited.
The brethren will please let this be

IngerSoll ON California.

In a recent magazine article, Mr.. En-
nest Ingersoll, the noted writer, says:
The climate of southern California in
winter closely resembles that of Egypt. It's
equability is constant, and it's dryness is
proverbial. The only complaint made is,
that it is too nearly perfect. Residents bred
in the.eastern states confess now and then
that rousing storm would give them a
grateful sensation. But this sentiment
meets with no favor from the man who has
just fed from superAuity of wetness and
chilling gales. To him perpetual summer
seems perpetual paradise, and to the invalid
dreading the advance Of disease the still
and arid atmosphere is as the breath of life.
The most comfortable way to reach the
Pacific coast Is vie Santa Fe Route.
