TailOr-Made Sleeves.

1t Is very bad taste to put a pompous
pair OF sleeves ID a tailor-made Jacket
or bodice. Beautiful cloth, like beauti-
full wood, has a grain and a finish that
make ornamentation useless. Bouffant
effects should be done In soft, fine light
textures, and the sleeves in a cloth gar
ment should lie fiat, as designed by mer-
chant tailors who know how splendid
cloth should be handled.

That white stocking scnre.

One day last Spring, the Princess Of
wales appeared at a garden party In q
white t~oilet-dead white-following the
second mourning worn for Prince
EDDY Under a big white sunshade,
she wore a little white bonnet with q
deilcate white veil. Her dress was
white' ana so were her shoes and stock
inss. These details were needed by the
other ladies', and on the strength Of
their orders manufacturers set in maxi
Ing white silk hosiery. But white has
not been the fashion for several years,
and as white shoes are only for slim
little feet. the white stockings were not
a success. But that's he way that
white stocking scare started.

KANSAS CHANCE.

Take the states of Texas, Arkansas.
Mississippi. Tennessee. North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana
and Florida and they require about
80, 900, 600 bushels of wheat annually
over and above what they produce, and
buy it either as wheat or after it is con-
verted into flour. Kansas Is their near
est and cheapest market, vet they do
not get 10 per cent of their supplies from
Kansas, and are compelled to pay as
much for what they buy as the same
grade costs in nearly all the European
markets. Better trade relations with
the west would save to the above n AIMED
states annually $4,000, 900, and give
their local roads more business than they
now get. The time has come when the
American people must study economy
and the cost of living is the one thing
that will have to bear the brunt of de-
creased expenses. The ability to make a
living in any state is the incentive that
popuiates the state. And when the cost
of living is out of proportion to the in.
come there can be no growth or prosper
ity. Kansas today is only rich in the
productiveness of her fertile soil. What
she has produced has largely been alb
sorbed by the long hauls and tolls that
her productions have been subjected to,
The time has come when economic cues
tons must be studied and the shipping
out of the surplus and shipping in the
supplies Is something that affects the
interests of all. The towns on the Mis-
souri, river are bowling that Wichita
wants The earth and is continually after
better freights for herself regardless of
her neighbors. The facts is that Wichita
has fought for years for simple justice
and never filed complaint but in the
interests of the surrounding TERRITORY.
What Wichita wants Is just and reason
able rates that the state OF Kansas and
the country tributary to her may prosper
and then sic viii take her chances. and
the enterprise of her citizens should be
the pride % the state instead of being
sneered at as they Frequently are by
people living in the state.

TElNLY DISGUISED.

The Kansas City Star devotes nearly
all its editorial space and news col
umns TO Kansas matters and news, as it
looks to Kansas for readers, but when it
comes to 4 question of diverting any
business from Kansas City, even though
the move would make Kansas prosper
Gus, the Star kicks like bay steer. The
time will come when the people of Kan

then the for revenue only fellows across

grafton Bureau. Kansas enterprise has

A BLOOMING BLATHEasKITE.

Some blatherskite calling himself a
railroad man, interviewed by Topeka
Capital reporter, on Tuesday, turns bim-
self loose on Wichita. The said blatli-
erskite is probably either knave or a
fool, but there is no probability touching
his capacity to lie. He says that the
declaration that the railways of the
country are loaded down with bonded
Indebtedness three times their value is
demogogery. That they are SO loaded
down is true all the same. Railroads,
like every other kind of property, for
the most part, are not only not worth
more than half of their original value,
but their securities are not worth half
what they were ten years ago, as the
holders are finding out. This blooming
bIatherskite's Misrepresentation of
Wichita's fight is without excuse.
Wichita has not been fighting for spec
ial rates, per Sc, but for the rates given
other points to the disadvantage of
her dealers. 1t has not been
high rates that hurt Wichita but dis
eliminating rates. If the pretended rail-
road man knows anything he knows this.
One of Wichita's cases now before the
commission is an iron piping which is
laid down from st. Louis in Beatrice,
Nebraska, for less than half the rate
charged Wichita. Wichita wheat pays
nine cent rate to Kansas City, 200
miles, but Wichita wheat when it be-
comes Kansas City wheat is charged
only six cents to Chicago, 500 miles. The
Capitals man might well look up the
schedule rates for instance from Calves
ton TO Wichita and on to Kansas City; or
the schedules from San Francisco to
Wichita and the same classes again from
that point through Wichita and on to
st. LOUIS. And he is permitted to con-
fine himself to car load lots. Wichita is
perfectly willing to pay the same rate
per ton per mile charged the Missouri
river points be they high or low. Wich-
ita Is not therefore squealing about
either high or low rates, but against
rates.

home TRADE THE BEST.

In our anxiety to reach the nearest
tidewater through the gulf ports we
| should not forget the greater importance
Of building up direct traffic with the
south. A home market is preferable to
| a foreign one for many reasons, the chief
| of which is that all the accruing profits
of either carrying, buying or selling are
kept at home. We are working out
problem of our own in our commerce as
well as in our system Of government on
this side of the wide Atlantic, and it
should be our firsI duty to use every
facility to foster home traffic. There is
between the south and the west mutual
dependence which leaves no alternative
but an exchange of products. If it Is to
be carried on it should be done with the
best possible results to both buyer and
seller, or rather to each party to the ex-
change of commodities. 1t is unnatural
and positively wrong to introduce
middle men or extra miles between the
producer and the consumer. That this
has been done with the greatest
volume of our southern trade nobody
denies. In fact great portion of our
southern trade is only known through
the scalpers and brokers of so called
great markets, entirely out of line of
any direct way of shipment. That
these self appointed conservators Of our
rights and profits, aided by eastern rail-
way interests, have thus diverted our
trade from its legitimate and natural
channels only shows their greater enter
prise and corresponding lethargy on
our part. Surely it does not require the
sagacity of Ricardo or Nautilus to see
the folly of taxing every pound of our
freight with the cost of carrying it two
miles by round about circuit when j.
should go one mile direct in half the
time. Goods billed to Memphis via ST.
Louis or to Atlanta, Georgia, via Chica-
go or Cincinnati are subject to Just such
tax, which, OF necessity, must be paid
by the producer or consumer or both.
Nothing will do more toward building
up our trade with the south than this
shortening of transportation lines,
and the inexpensive ard altogether
pleasant arrangement for meeting
often in trade conventions. 1t need not
be argued that the products of the two
sections are alike indispensable 10 each.
We of the west can no more produce the
cotton and the sugar which we must
have than the gulf states can raise the
wheat, corn and pork, without which
the cotton and sugar could not be pro-
duced. Our mutual dependence is the
best of all reasons why our commerce
should be carried on with the least pos
sible cost. end our trade extended to the !
very limit of every demand. This can
only be done by perseverance and sys-
tematic work. The wolves and vultures |
which have preyed upon our commerce
will be Oh our trail. ready to block our |
efforts by every means fair and foul,
but it will be our business to see that |
tolls and extra charges are fairly divided |
between those who produce the goods
and those who buy and pay for them.

SIMPSONS SUCCESSOR.

The failing health of Jerry Simpson
has set the aspiring Populists of the Big
Seventh to conjecturing and figuring.
The fusion state senator of Medicine
Lodge does not disguise the fact that he
itches for a chance to stand in Jerry's
shoes. Harry Lands deems himself a
greater statesman,-less erratic and
more practical than the famous de-
fender of option dealing. But Lands
would hardly give up the certainty of
his seat in the state senate for a chance
to beat the Republican nominee, and
there will be much protesting if he
should hold on 10 the one while reaching
for the other.
The man who will succeed Jerry Simp-
son will be nominated at Newton on the
third day of next month.
