PROHIBITS GIVING PASSES.
Mr.. simons' Bill Also Prohibits Oficerl
Taking Them.

Taking Them.
A prohibitive anti-pass bill has been
introduced in the house by Mr.. Simons
of Sumner county. Mr.. Simons is editor
of the Caldwell News and while it might
be supposed, from the title of the bill
that it was contrary to the supposed in
herent tenderness of the editor for passes
it will be found upon examination of the
bill that editor comes forth unscathed.
The bill reads:
SECTION l. All railroad companies or
corporations owning or operating any
railroad in this state, and all other COM
mon carriers transacting business in the
state are hereby prohibited from giving
or issuing to any state, district, county,
township or municipal officer any annu al,
time or trip pass or other free transpor-
tation over any railroad or any other car
rying line in the state.
SEC 2. All officers, agents or en-
ployes of any railroad company, corpora
ton or other common carrier, and every
state, district, county, township or mu-
nicipal officer who shall violate any of
the provisions of this act shall be guilty
of misdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof in any court of competent juris-
diction shall be punished by fine of
not less than $50 nor more than 500. or
by Imprisonment in the county for a Pc
Rod of not more than thirty days, or by
both such fine and Imprisonment
SEC. 8. No person shall be excused
from testifying touching any ofense
committed by another against any of the
provisions of this act by reason of such
testimony tending TO criminate himself
but the testimony given by such person
shall in no case be used against him.

A Large Part OF This Went to Pay
For Worlds Fair Reports That BE
come Nothing But Waste Paper.
The last thing the senate did yester-
day was to pass a bill apprOprlatlng
$4,000 to pay for state printing until
June 80 of this year, but it was passed
with the determined and almost united
opposition of the Republican minority
The appropriation which should nave
lasted until that date, was squandered on
a lot of unnecessary and worthless fe-
ports"
State Printer Snow presented for the
benefit of the legislature statement OF
how the deficiency happened to De Gre
ated He laid it almost wholly TO tne
numerous and voluminous Worlds far
renorts He said also that the printing
of the suffrage amendment cost $1,000
It cost nearly $4,000 to print Labor
Commissioner Todd's ponderous report,
uart of which is Intended to show that 1t
doesn't pay to grow wheat in Kansas
Senator Banner of Harvey county
called ate ntiOn to these items and de-
clared that the journal of the Dunsmore
house should never have been printed,
and that the Todd report might have
been put between the covers OF small
pamphlet.
These extravagant publications were
paid for out of the appropriation made
two years ago and there is no way to
remedy it now" Mr.. Banner said. The
same senator asked if Chairman Rogers
of the ways and means committee: "Is
it not true that the state printer has the
53rd supreme court reports already pup
lished and bound but declares that he
won't deliver them until this approprla-
ton is made? / understand from the
IF or iS the PaSAD
Senator Rogers replied that he knew
nothing of the facts in that regard, but if
SO, Mr.. Snow was doing right in refusing
to deliver the report until the pay was IN
sight. This report costs about 5000
Senator Milton Brown expressed re-
Eret that the facts in the case were ad-
vanced on such short notice and ex-
pressed fear that possibly there was ''a
leak somewhere"
Senator Parker, who is a fighter from
Olathe, wanted the appropriation cut
squarely in two, making it $4,000 in
stead of $4,000. He called attention to
the fact that the appropriation for the
whole biennial period was only $4,000
aud he didn't think it required nearly as
much again to run till June 30. He put
his views in the form of an amendment,
which was defeated.
Chairman Rogers said there had to be
al appropriation or the state house would
have to shut down and go out OF BUSH
ness. "The state can't run without print
ing" he said
The appropriation bill, after consider
able more cross firing, passed by vote

is, is $4,000 below the state printers es-

To Prevent Collision.

n new arrangement for preventing
collisions of trains in tunnels is at
present being tried in Germany. 1t con
slsts of series of electric lights at
tached to the tunnel walls and electro
ally connected with tn. rails in such
manner, that as soon as the tram
reaches light the latter is extinguished.
1t remains thus until the train has pro-
ceeded distance of about 1900 feet,
when it is automatically relighted.
The 10 omOtive engineer, on entering
the tunnel. can see, at a glance whether
the track is clear, and, if it is not, has
sufficient time to bring his train to
stop. The arrangement, out side of its
automatic functions serves the tunnel
watchmen for the purpose of trans
mittlng signals. This certainly looks
like preventative of tunnel accidents.

now there is chance of securing big

a good place to build or buy site and

The whole thing was at once foolish,

there iS no way TO punish the men who
