WHO FOR ASSESSOR?
1t Looks as Though the SUN
Kissed JohnStone Were
Slated.
A Little Deal for Harry Franklin
That Dropped
Out

The rumor that Harry Franklin, who
represents the Sixth ward in the board
of aldermen, is to be selected as city
and county assessor, has caused consid-
erable talk among those not posted as to
the situation. The ground for the rumor
dates back to the time when the pres
ent reform aggregation OF city fathers
took charge of city affairs in June last.
At that time there was considerable
strife as to who should be elected as
president of the joint bodies. Aid.
Copeland and AsSemblyman Lightner
were the candidates, and the contest
for the position was warm one. In
order to secure the vote Of Aid. Frank
lin it was necessary to do something for
the Sixth ward refOrmer. Friends of Mr..
Lightner consulted with Aid. Franklin'S
friends and promised If he would vote
for Lightner for president of the two
bodies the favor would be reciprOcated
later, and MIR. Lightner would vote for
Franklin for assessor when the time
came. Whether this caused Aid. Franklin
to vote for I1ightner is not positively
known, but one thing is certain, Light
ner secured his vote and was elected.
The last time All assessor was elected
the law read that the mayor. as chair
man of the board of county commits
sioners, the auditor and president of
the council were the trio who named
the official. This was in 1891, just be-
fore the Bell charter went into effect.
At the time the arrangements were
made. and, in fact, up to short time
ago. the friends of Aid. Franklin and
Mr.. Lghtner supposed the deal would
be carried out according to agreement.
Recently it was discovered that by sec
ton l of the Bell charter certain of
the legisIatives duties formerly per-
formed by the president of the common
council were imposed upon the presi-
dent of the assembly. This settled the
scheme. as Assemblyman Wolterstorff,
being president of the assembly, to-
gether with the mayor and county au-
ditor. will select the assessor. 1t is un
derstood the mayor will cast his vote
when the proper time arrives for E. r.
Johnstone, at present his private secre-
tary, as assessor. Assemblyman WOlter-
storff is also credited With being in
favor of Johnstone for the position.
County Auditor Burns has not said
word as yet, but, as Mayor Wright and
President Wolterstorff have two of the
three votes, it is safe to say JOhnStOne
will be the next assessor.

social and Personal Gossip
Of a Day in the
City.

The revolution of the ecclesiastical
year brings again the shadow OF the
passion and death of the Savior to cloud
the brightness of the social world. To
day is Ash Wednesday, the beginning
of Lent. The annual time for the OBJ
servance Of this season turns OH the day
of the year on which Easter falls. There
was great difference Of opinion among
the early Christians about when this
feast should occur. but the council of
Nice in A. D. 325 finally decided the
time, and now the rule for finding
Easter day, the day on which the other
movable church feaStS depend, is al
ways the first Sunday after the full moon,
which happens on or next after the 2lst
day OF March, the vernal equinox. Count
backward to Low Sunday, that was last
Sunday, and there are seventy days. In
many European countries, notably in
Italy, the home at Rome, at least of the
carnival, the days between Low Sunday
and Ash Wednesday are days of the
widest social revel. Every hour is de-
voted to pleasure until IL o'clock on
Shrove Tuesday, but as the clock strikes
y the fun ceases, the revel dies and
Lent, The season Of sorrow, begins.
Bishop Coke says: sit is the way OF
the world to reckon advancing time by
addition, but the church now gives us
seventy days, ,and gently hints to us that
life is going, as she bids US to subtract
one, so that we may number our days
and apply our hearts to wisdom.
There has been great difference O
opinion whether Lent originally laSteC
forty days or forty hours, but for cent
uries the torty-day rule has applied,
and in England and America we observe
the forty days today. Ash Wednesday,
sometimes called Pulver-day-derives

In Rome, and all these observances are

bodily discomfort and afiction the an

bodily discomfort and affiiction the an
clients firmly believed, as if the loving
Father took pleasure in seeing his chill
dren uncomfortable. In fact, in days
not so very ancient the tendency was to
feel in this way. One of Howell's hero
ines expresses it, when, finding she could
not go to sleep after mild college town
party in New England, she says: "Well,
if person has good time he's got to
pay for it. We do not feel that there is
any merit in being miserable: on the
other hand, we believe in sun
ny muscular Christianity that looks for
the brightest and best in life, and, as a
rule, finds it. Even the shadow that
dims these Lenten days is but a cloud
with q silver lining. 1t is common to
hear or see fiippant reasons why Lent
! is a good thing coming as it does
towards the end of a busy social season,
but thoughtful people of all creeds or
| no creed can give a reason for the sill
yer lining to the cloud of sorrow that
cannot be galnSaid. The Master whose
passion and death these days so vividly
recall taught more by His life than by
His words the gospel of human brother
hood. The years are long and many
since He
Took His Silent Way
through the garden of Gethsemane, but
not so long as to dim the value of the
lessons of love and sympathy of brother
| hood and equality Of high thinking and
simple living, of doing for others in
stead of self, that have made the world
richer and nobler today. The deeds of
philanthropy with which our own city
are enriched are the perfect flowers Of
| the harvest of those days of bitter SOW
| ing. From last Sunday on to Easter the
| Sundays and weeks are ten, and are num-
bered first, second and third in Lent.
The fifth Sunday is Passion Sunday
the sixth is Palm Sunday, on which
Christ entered into Jerusalem when the
! people cast palm branches in the streets
| before Him. Thursday of the last
week is called Maundy Thursday, for
on that day the mandate was given
which our ministers still respect when
they gather the children about the COM
munion table, DO this in remembrance
of Me-" Then comes Friday, the day
of the great sacrifice that makes us free,
and then comes the most Joyous feast OF
ers can say, "Rejoice, for Christ is
ariSen." 1t is meet that social functions
should take secondary place through
these weeks that Christendom has
united in setting apart for the com
memoration of the most stupendous
event IN history, and so they do every
where. 1t is good time to pause
and take stock. as the mer.
chants say, of all our belongings
both spiritual and material. So much
depends in this life on getting what the
children call "a good ready" We shall
be able to enjoy the little afuer-Lenten
gaiety and the summer outdoor frolics
the more by improving these quiet days.
not only by meditation, but in getting g
part of the mountain of sewing that
towers before the modern house mother
or society girl out of the way before
spring comes, so we will devote part
of the time to that, and may Easter find
us better in mind and soul and body for
these quiet, thoughtful Lenten days.

The People Along the Border of the Cherokee Strip in Great Dan-

TOPEKA, Kan, March 17.-[ Associated Press. l-The uncertainty about the time of opening the Cherokee Strip has not had the effect of diminishing the rush to the border. On the contrary, as spring advances the travel increases. These people are said to be gathering in little colonies along the border between Arkansas City and Caldwell. They live in tents and beneath wagon covers. Some have plenty to eat and wear, but great majority have little means and unless they can find work on adjacent farms will have to be taken care of by theIr more fortunate fellow boomers or the government. Troops of cavalry are camped along the northern border of the strip and daily patrol the line. and SCOUT the interior to see that the in- truders are kept out.
