courteous invitation of your chamber OF
commerce to attend the annual banquet
to take place at Santa Monica February

bility to be present.
| am sorry that, as business of the

Your chamber may feel assured, how
ever, that | am in full sympathy with
the people of your section in the build
ing up of your beautiful country, and
have noted with great pleasure the
steady and satisfactory progress which
has been made in that direction, on a
basis which is not fictitious in any re-
epect, coincident to what might be
called "booms," but lie upon solid
foundation.

RETURNING FROM THE WEST.

There is something wrong in the great
west. The tide of population no longer
rushes in that direction, but on the con-
trary is rolling back to the east.
Numerous ives :ern farmers within the
past two years have returned to their old
homes in the eastern states, and some of
them have organized small colonies and
settled in Maryland.
The settlers in the vas5 region between
the Rocky mountains and the Mississippi
river are rapidly coming to the conclu-
sion that the profitable cultivation of
their lands is impossible without an irri-
CATION system, which cannot be estab-
lished for some generations to come. In
ten years $4,000 people have left twenty
swo counties in western Kansas to seek
homes elsewhere, because they are una,
bic to raise crops on their arid lands.
Those who remain are setting windmills
to work to raise water wherever it it can
be found below the surface. The New
Orleans Times-Democrat says:
"The exodus of the farmers has hurt
the railroads also, and the newspapers
tell a strange story of the desolation to
be found throughout western Kansas.
All along the branch lines of the Santa
Fe, Missouri Pacific and the Union Pa
cific railroads are decayed towns that

once were full of promise and even
aspired to greatness. In the boom times
MANY brick buildings were put up and
wide avenues laid out. Some OF the
buildings have never had tenant, and
Others were soon abandoned. On the
wide streets there is no traffic worth the
name. At Chico, for instance, the train
now stops only on signal. Once its ar
rival was a great event, and crowds OF
neople swarmed to the station. In that
day Chico had the appearance, at least
of prosperity, and boasts were made OF
its growth Kanapolis was 20 be the hub
of Kansas. and eastern capitalists, some
of them men of note, invested hoerally
: in the future of the town. Today its
ambitious capitol square is used for u
sheep pasture, and the train rushes by
as though it were a tank station. South
Hutchinson furnish another illustration.
1t was a young giant at its zenith, with
brick hotels, churches. schoolhouses and
a street car line. Prairie dogs now run
about the chancel of the biggest church,
and the hotel door is hidden by a sand
bank
This is fearful picture of decay, but
it is accounted for by the fact that the
booming methods of the railroads and
immigration agents have caused thous-
ands of people to attempt farming in a
country that has no agricultural advan
tages. The best thing that the people
of the ard western lands can do is to
change their base.

The Fun That Adam Missed.

From the New Moon.
That Adam was lonely man
I'm ready to believe,
Although his many days were blest
With natures fairest Eve;
By maiden aunts and cousins fair
The man was never kissed,
And thus | often think about
The fun that Adam missed.
It seems to me his life was like
An oft repeated dream;
He never treated girls and paid
Three dollars for ice cream;
He never, when alittle boy,
By grown up girls was kissed;
And when he died he never knew
The fun that he had missed.
He never went security
And had the note to pay;
He never saw his banks cashier
Steal gracefully away;
In all his life he never by
A mother-in-law was kissed,
But why go on and enumerate
The fun that Adam missed?
Perhaps, if he were living now
I But, then, why speculate?
He'd be too old and not inclined
To play with tickle fate.
For centuries the wanton winds
His unknown grave have kissed;
Perhaps he sleeps the better for
The fun that he has missed.

They are having great ''fun" in the

several prominent society women have
been informed by Breckenridge parti-
san that unless they desist from harping
upon the Washington trial the doors of
THAR several family closets will be I'M
