BOODLE BOOMERANG.

That Doodle story published by
Joe Hudson in his paper, the 'Tope-
ka Capital, caused an investigation,
which is not turning out just as the
Major expected, but just the oppo-
site. In fact, the investigation has
elected the fact that it was Repub-
licans who got the Doodle, instead
of Populists has shown that the
railroads used money to prevent leg
islation; it has shown that money
was used by Republicans in the SEN
atorial and state printer elections.
In fact, the Capitals charges have
proved a boomerang. 1t would
have been better for Major Hudson
aud his party had he not "opened
his mouth and put his foot in it."

LATE LEGISLATURES.

The late Legislature cost the peo-
pie over 500, 900. The appro-
priations amounted to 81, 500, 900.
Two hundred and five bills were
passed, and became laws. Only a
few are of general Importance, and
among the numberis mortgage re-
demption law of eighteen months /;
law to prohibit gold contracts a
law to prohibit the killing of quail
or grouse, except by owners OF
farms, on their premises law to
prevent bribery and corruption in
elections an Australian ballot law.
All railroad Legislation failed, as did
also a fees-and-salary bill. Both
parties accuse each other of defeat
ing railroad legislation. Each house
passed bill of it's own. The house
bill was conservative. and ought to
have passed, if a better one could
not have been had. Briefly, the
house bill provided for the election
of railroad commissioners, and cloth
ed them with power to prevent un-
Just determinations. The senate
bill provided for maximum freights,
and the election of commissioners,
and gave the commissioners power
to enforce rates prescribed by the
bill. The charge that the senate
bill would wreck railroad companies
is not true, of course; but, true or
not, there is only one way to stop
railroad companies from watering
their stock, and that is to limit the
charges for carrying freight; for,
just 80 long as railroad company
can raise its freight rates, just that
long will it water stock and levy on
people to pay dividends. But, still,
we would rather have had the house
bill enacted into law than our pres
ent law. Half loaf is better than
no bread.

The Topeka Capital says that
Bank Commissioner Johnson's re-
port indicates a circulation in Kan
sas of fifty dcllars per capita AS
our readers are aware, about 1924 per
capita is the amount for the whole
nation (as per Republican fgures),
so it will be seen that the people Of
Kansas have more than twice as
much as their share. Now, in view
of the fact that anti-prohibitionists
predicted that prohibition would
drive capital out of the state, and
in view of the fact that the
Capital and kindred journals have
insisted that the Peoples party
would drive capital out of the
state, is it not striking refut-
alton in that capital not only
remains, but accumulates until no
state in the Union can show so large
a circulation per CAPITA? Men with
capital have declared that they
would rather loan to man who
does not drink, and it is probably
true that men of capital would rather
loan to a man who appreciates the
burdens of debt than to man who
does not; so we reason correctly
when we assume that both prohibi-
tion and the peoples uprising have
been strong inducement to capital
lists to invest in Kansas, and that,
with the sobriety and intelligence
of the masses, is placing Kansas far
in the lead, financially, morally and
politically. 1t is now in order for
anti-prohibitionists and anti-Popu-
lists to take back some of the whop-
ping big slanders they have circu-
lated on the people of this state.
Kansas is all right-only lacking
two dollars per capita of the amount
demanded in the Peoples platform.

SEvENrY.sIx million dollars of
gold was the amount exported dur
ing the year ending March lst.
And now, will some one arise and in-
form the people how long it will
take to drain America of her five
hundred million at the same rate !
And, also, will some one inform the
people for what purpose the gold was
drawn abroad !? And, what did
America receive for the gold !?
And, also, will gold-bugs inform a
benighted people as to the stability
of money basis that flies off to
Europe? Will the gold exported
still form a basis for American cur
rency? And, if not, is not our
currency basis pretty slim affair !

from fifteen-foot sand bank the earth
gave way and the entire mass fell on
him, crushing him and almost suffo-

The team became frightened and.
plunging forward, dragged Fogle from

from suifocation. Fogle was removed

which are internal, will prove fatal
