rather inclined to think that the best
method of arranging the relief is to
establish government repositories for
public money and private funds in var
ions centers of population, with the
power to lend money received at a fair
rate of interest This, OF course, will
prevent money from piiing up at the

vent its drain from the smaller centers,

This is the Wichita way of getting rid
Of the present incumbents on the rail-

to resign, and Wichita is town noted
for its politeness. The governor is not
overly warm on the subject Of a maxi
