THE INTERSTATE REUNION.

Every day brings new evidence OF
the fact, plain 10 ull, that the coming re-
union to be held ut Camp Logan, near
Baxter Springs, Aug. 29-Sepl. 3, will
surpass all previous gatherings in both
numbers and interest says Col. Weldy
in the Short Greek Republican. An
old soldier farmer covered the whole
ground when he said to us a few days
Since: I'VE have good crops, and are
in better condition to attend tho re-
union than ever before" We said in
our last issue we would have some
thing to say concerning the action OF
the objectionable features Of the past
reunions. They voted 10 exclude
dance pls.iorms altogether thereby
removing Que of the most obnoxious
features of any similar gathering.
They gave the commanding officer
full and absolute cOnrtOl of the camp,
clothing him with authority 10 make
arrests the same as ia delegated 10
other officers OF the law. This will
enable him to act upon complaints that
may be presented and will in a
measure make every attendant at the
reunion accountable for the manner in
which il is conducted. Under this
arrangement anyone who discovers
any violation OF law or the rules Ofthe
camp or in fact any irregularities
whatever may report the same TO the
commander who will at once investi-
gate the matter aud Sct in accordance
with the laws of the land and 0f the
association. This was rendered ne
cessary for several reasons, foremost
among which is the fact that these
annual reunions have reached such
magnitude as 10 make il necessary to
conduct :hem with some system in
order 10 successfully handle the thOus'
ands who assemble TO enjoy them.
Another is that the Association Ia now
q chartered institution organized un-
der the laws OF the state aud must be
conducted upon business principles.
And still another. In timea past par
ties have taken out license TO do certain
things In strict conformity 10 law and
under the shadow Of said license do
something entirely different. In such
Rcase, under the present system, any
vn' may report the matter to the COM

Far below the dark stream wound
In aud out amid forest that seemed
endless. In another direction was the
Devils Promenade" We walked
along his chosen pathway and found
his favOrite seat with it's overhan2ing
canopy where neither wind or storm
could trouble him. Surely II must
have required the eye and hand Of his
most cunning iinps TO have fashioned
such harmonious curves and lines.
Never before have We seen such
perfection of farming country. In
every direction there are knobs that
slope from all sides, each farm pos
scssing building spots that a wet sea-
son can not modest. Rhe natural
roads seem like driving park. There
Is no saneness in the landscape, but
diversity in every direction. Farm
houses nestled amid gardens aud
trees, a touch Of Indian life, that 10
the stranger at least Is a pleasing va
riety. The wild flowers grow every
where. Never shall we forget GER
tain field of them. II lay In a bea'iti-
ful hollow. There were pink and vel.
low sunflowers, "Brown-eyed Beetles"
fragrant verbenas, wild blossoms of
every shade of blue and rcd, pure
white aud deep orange. 1t being
moist strip OF land the tall grass was
of the palest green. The afternoon
breeze tossed it gently 10 and fro
like laughing waves, the sunlight
covered it with kisses, and the effect
was as if myriads OF bright hued
flowers lay on the bosom OF some
sparkling sea Of radient green.
Each day unfOlded some new thing,
and the journey home was PIANO.
rama of rich harvests. Thousands OF
acres of golden grain. II seemed as il
Russia cOuld afford another famine
and we be able 10 keep her from starv-

alone and she still be rich IN wheat.
Field after field far as the eye could
reach, the undulating landscape
deep gold close at hand, fading into u
pale golden mist IN the distance. The
dark, rich green of the fields Of corn,
standing in such beautiful contrast,
broken now aud then by peach and
apple orchards, streams, bit of wild
woodland, patches Of red clover, while
all along where the right OF way Of
our road lay the wild grass was dotted
thick with flowers and seemed like
fanciful fringe TO border the fields of
useful products.
We came home from Kansas wiser
than we went, Drowned by her sun.
and charmed by her wealth OF natural
soil and climate. The Kansas OF our
Imagination we have banished to the
desert of Sahara and in her stead
reigns state worthy Of the pride her
warmest admirers have ever claimed
for her.
