THE KANSAS EDITORS
The Brainy Children of the
Shears in Zion.
They VIII Attend the Tabernacle. Swim in the
Lake. Go to the Park. and Other
wise Enjoy Themselves.

The Kansas editor rules the entire roost
1t is not unusual to see the editor of the
country paper lay down his shears on Sat
urday and 60 into the pulpit on Sunday.
1t has been said with some humor and
much truth that Kansas is plastered with
newspapers and rooted with mortgages.
There are more newspapers per capita
than any state IN the union. So great
is the demand for information that Kan
sas man will mortgage his house to pay for
his newspaper.
In Utah man will pay for his paper il
the farm will grow the turnips to do it
with, but in Kansas the farmers when
their or Jps are swept by the grasshopper
plague will come to town smiling, put on
fresh mortgages and renew their subscrip-
tions.
Yesterday about fifty representatives of
the Northern KANSAS Editorial association
arrived in the city and they are good speci-
mems of the craft. They not only repre-
sent the press, but the pulpit and the poll
tics of the state. Many of the tall lean,
WhiteIaw Reid pen pushers find time to
edit their paper during the week days and
preach on Sunday. They have monopo-
LIKED the pulpit as we'll as the politics of the
state, are not satisfied to run the secular
to direct the current Of their consciences.
In other states the lawyer Is the central
figure in politics, but the Jsyhawkers
through the Alliance organs bsve driven
the lawyer to tend 10 his profession, while
the granger editor will guide the helm of
state.

est Of their profession. The party con-
