MANAGER L. NJ CRAWFORD tells in an
interview in today's paper, some of the
reasons why better class attractions can
not be brought to Topeka. Some Of the
reasons sound plausible. It is true. as he
says, that the hard times affect the the
ater business more or less. and managers
do not have so many companies "on the
road" as usual 1t is no doubt also true
that Mr.. Crawford's many Investments
have involved him considerably. as
many other Topeka people are involved.
Mr. Crawford also says that Topeka is a
poor show town. We cannot agree with
him in this. Topeka is a poor show
town for poor shows; but a good play or
a good actor was not brought to Topeka
last winter that the house was not
packed Dir. Crawford says be barely
''got out on a pinch with Fanny Daven-
port That was not Topeka's fault, for
she gave him two crowded houses at adj
vanced prices. II was the poor attend
ance at t. Joe, a much larger town than
Topeka, that knocked the profit out of
the Davenport engagement. Topeka
only asks for such entertainments as
towns. of her size in other parts Of the
country usually get The people here
expect as much as Les M0Iness Lincoln

If the towns mentioned above are visited
by better companies than .'4-11-44" (and
they are) why. we want them, too. Tope-
ka was perfectly satisfied with the list of
bookings made last winter. They we're
everything that could be desired; and
the patronage they received was big.
There is just as much money IN town to
be spent on that kind of attractions as
there was last winter. Now, why can't
we have them.

THE CARS0v MINT.

Denver wants mint established
a that city. There is now Gov
erumeut assay office there, but that
does not answer the requirements of
the State. Congressman Bell and
Pence'of Colorado are enthusiastic
ally in favor of the Denver mint. but
there is no probability Of its beng
established unless the Carson mint Is
dismantled and the plant moved to
Colorado. Representative Newlands
and Senators Jones and Stewart will
oppose the dismantlement of the
Carson mint, but the Colcradons
hope that compromise may be eff
fected by providing that only the
coinage plant should be removed from
Carson, and that the Carson mint he
kept open as refinery and assay
office.
The Director of the Mint is said to
be in favor of removing the Carson
plant to Denver. That cannot be
done, however, without an act of
Congress authorizing it, and such an
act is not likely to be passed at the
present session.
This move 10 dismantle the Car
son mint should be an incentive to
Carson people; who advocate the
success of party that is opposed to
free coinage, to abandon such folly
and join the silver party. With free
coinage the Carson mint would be
running to its full capacity and Civ
ing employment to sixty or seventy
persons. As an assay office it does
not employ more than one-ffth that
number, ard should it be dismantied,
as it probably will be in the near
future if silver coinage is not re
sumed, it viii be a severe blow to |
