PROF. SNOW SAYS BE LIBERAL.
Money That Would Not Come Amiss t.
the State University.

Money That Would Not Come Amiss to
the State University.
In the ninth biennial report of the re-
gents and officers of the State university,
Chancellor Snow makes a plea to the
legislature for liberal appropriations for
the leading state institution of learning.
In concluding his report, he gives
summary of the needs OF the university,
in which he says:
"The university is hard pressed from
lack of funds for current expenses in
every department, and from LACK OF at
least six new buildings.
$40 provide for current expenses, two
methods are available: Either by increas-
ing the present $4,000 per annum to
100000 per annum, which would make
a comfortable provision for about five
years. or by an annual tax on the grand
assessment roll of the state sufficient
to supply not only the present
requirements, but also the future
equirements, as the product of such
tax would increase with the increase of
the state valuation. The state valuation
and the university would presumably in
crease with approximate equality, and it
would not be necessary to apply to the
legislature for more liberal appropria-
tions from time to time to meet the cur
rent expenses An annual university tax
of three tenths of a mill would now bring
in the desired 100000. This would in
volve an outlay OF only 80 cents by each
property owner with a taxable assess
ment of $1,000. The Nebraska State
University has an annual tax levy of
three-eights of a mill Surely Kansas
will be as liberal to her university as her
sister on the north.
"The buildings needed by the uniSer-
sitv for immediate use are a chemistry
building, engineering shops, museum
building for Prof. Dyche's collection,
astronomical observatory. fine arts and
woman's dormitory. In the eight years
during which the state of Kansas has
erected but one building for her univer-
sity, the state of Minnesota has erected
seventeen buildings for her university
Let Kansas make an approximately
equal provision for her highest educa-
tiOnal institution.
Easily the foremost boon ever given to
the household is DIR. Prices Cream Bak-

Shawnee and LeavenwOrth Fail to Provide
For Miss SWayze.
The friends of Miss Annie L. Swayze
of Leavenworth, who was beaten for the
position of chief enrolling clerk in the
Republican caucus. were anxious that
she be not wholly left out
At last nights caucus, therefore, after
all the offices except the pages and
the assistant postmaster had been elect
ed, Col Veale called attention to the
fact that no engrossing clerk had been
nominated.
Shawnee and Leavenworth counties
had been working hand in hand for Miss
Swayze, and this was the opportunity to
provide for her. Mr.. Hunt of Leaven-
worth, therefore nominated her for the
place. Everything seemed ready for
her to be put in easy, when Mr.. Hopkins
of FinneY, called attention to the fact
that this work had always been done in
the secretary of states Office and there
was no necessity for an engrossing clerk.
He therefore moved that the whole
matter of an engrossing clerk lie upon
the table, and the motion was carried.

To the Pittsburg Dispatch, and Receives
Editorial Reply.
The Pittsburg Dispatch, the leading
Republican paper of western Pennsyl
vania, publishes letter from Justice S.
II. Allen of this state and a reply to it
that will interest number Of our Kansas
readers. The following is the editorial
in the Dispatch:
"From member of the supreme court
Of Kansas comes a request for The Dis
patch's opinions on the following very
large questions:
To the Editor of The Dispatch:
DEAR 'SIR:-Win you please favor the public
through your columns with your views on the
l. are the existing concentrations of vast
wealth in the hands OF individuals either unjust
or detrimental to the public welfare? II you
answer yes, what remedy do you propose?
2. How much is annually paid to citizens of
foreign countries for interest. dividends, rents
and profits on investments in the United States?
Will the public interest be best promoted by an
increase or reduction of this annual payment?
How would you bring about the change you
favor? Very respectfully yours.
IL. S. ALLEN.
Topeka. Kansas, Jan. 1, 1895.
The Dispatch regards the vast major
ity of cases of concentration of wealth
as founded not only in injustice, but in
the notification of the Democratic prin-
ciples of law that have been we'll estah-
Iished in our Jurisprudence The crea-
ton of fortunes by favoritism in railway
rates, By the formation of trusts and
pools, by manipulation of great corpora
tons on the inside. by stock watering and
freeze outs, is equally injurious to the
common people and violative of the
fundamental principles of law. We be-
lieve with Daniel Webster in the
Democracy of property as we'll as
the Democracy of political rights, and
that the latter cannot long exist with
out the former. As to the remedy, that
subject might well occupy volume, bat
since nineteen-twentieths of these great
| fortunes are rooted in the notification of
the principles of our laws. it would be d
very hopeful experiment to educate the
people to the i'm portance of maintaining
the law, instead of letting them be multi
fed, and before adding to the store OF
dead letter Legislation.

tries for interest, dividends. etc, on in

tistical means of obtaining even al ap-

COL. VEALE SPOTS IT.
He Stops a Bad Resolution from
Going Through.
THE COLONEL'S EXPERIENCED EYE

Detected the Measure and Headed AZ
OH-Other News Of the Day.
Col George W. Yeale should be given
the credit for the first work along the
line of genuine 'sreform" in this legisla-
ture.
It was in the Republican house caucus
last night that Mr.. John 6. johnson OF
Garnett, offered q resolution giving
Frank L. Brown. his fellow townsman,
who was at the afternoon session elected
chief clerk, full power to appoint such
assistants as he saw fit, as might be ap-
proved by the committee on house en-
ployes.
Col Veale was not to be caught nap
ping. He had been there before and
knew that such a resolution would en-
able the chief clerk to put any number
of people on the pay roll whether they
were actually needed by the house or
not
After half dozen mem bers had talked
on the resolution, Col Veale called at
tention to what the resolution really
meant, and moved to lay it on the table,
and on the table it went.
The caucus had already elected most
of the necessary assistants, and 1t then
proceeded to elect docket clerk.
