There will be nothing Of the kind
turned off by the present crowd. Dur
ing September, 1894, the earnings
amounted to Sl1, 1885, and in Octo,
Der they reached Sl2, ,O6O.85. The Sep.
tember earnings for this year are
$5,O66.75 and for October S5,545.46
The expense for October is $13, 1858.
Mr.. Chase made the earnings pay ex-
penses. Mr.. Lynch fails to do so, and
reports deficiency Of about e8, 900 for
two successive months, This is an in
dicatiOn of what the redemption meant
about which so much was said last fall
1t is hard to determine just what de-
gree of satisfaction the average hon.
est Republican voter can inspect and
study these figures. 1t may dawn on
them that their votes were secured last
year under false pretenses. Such was
undoubtedly the case.

More Evidence Of Business.

The Kansas State Penitentisry is in
charge of the redeemers. 1t is fair to
consider it as managed in accordance
with Morrill's idea of business sd-
ministration. This institution was an
especial eye.sore to the Republicans
during the Populist administration,
and it was charged that 1t was the
worst managed institution In the State.
This charge may have been true. Few
but Republican schemers believed or
credited these statements. If, how.
ever, the charge was true, then there
is no language strong enough to prop.
erly characterize the present "busi-
ness administration at Lansing.

tuition was made self-Sustaining and 3

A rate of a fare and one-third for the
round trip has been secured, on the
certificate plan, provided 100 persons
are in attendance who have paid full
fare in going, over the Santa Fe, Rock
Island, Missouri Pacific or Union Pa

pay full fare on going trip, taking
certificate from the agent of whom the
ticket is purchased, and on presenta
tion of this to the proper authorities
at Eureka a return ticket will be is
sued for one-thlrd fare. Be sure and
secure your Ger .iieate, and do not buy
your ticket more than three days be-
fore the convention, nor fail to pre-
sent it within two days after the close
of the convention. Those coming q
long distance need the benefit Of the
reduction, so do not fail to ask for a
certificate because you come but q
short distance, since all may be needed
to make the necessary 100. Psssen-

county and Scott county to test the va
lidity Of the bonds held by the school
fund, designated in this report as bonds
Of doubtful value, and to collect the
amount due on said bonds.
"(3) The committee further recon-
mends that the Attorney General be
also instructed to forthwith bring and
prosecute civil actions for the collec-
tiOn of the principal and interest due
on the securities designated in the
above report as defsulted bonds and
coupons.
"(4) The committee further recon-.
mends that the Board of School Fund
Commissioners forthwith proceed, un.
der section 5837 of the General Statutes
of 1889, to cause to be collected or re-
funded the securities designated in the
list accompanying this report under
the head of matured bonds.
go Upon examination of the rec
ords kept by the School Fund Commits
sioners concerning the offering for sale
and the purchase of bonds, your com
mittee find that the same are not kept
in full compliance with paragraph
1858, General Statutes of 1889, which
provides that said records shall show
the name of the party offering any
bonds for sale and also the name of the
owner thereof. We regard this as a
wise and important provision Of the
law, and this committee recommends
that the attention of the School Fund
Commissioners be called to this matter
and that a record be kept strictly in
compliance with law.
"(6) The committeerecommends that
the School Fund Commissioners, be-
fore entering upon their duties as such
Commissioners, be required to execute
a bond to the State of Kansas In the
sum of not less than $50, 600 each, to be
approved by the Governor, for the
faithful performance Of their duties.
"In view of the fact that large
amount of funds is lying idle in the
treasury and that large proportion Of
the loans outstanding will soon mature
and that the source of desirable loans
is decreasing, we recommend legisls
tion amending our laws in regard tC
loaning said funds so that they can be
loaned under a system similar to thai
used in the State of Indiana.
"This committee further recon-
mends that some legislation be enacted
making it penal offense for any mem
ber or members of said School FunG
Commissioners to Willfully, frsudu
lently or corruptly violate any of th'
provisions Of law providing for the in
vestment Of the permanent schoo
fund"
The report of the committee is 1
unanimous one. The report is mucl
more fair than was expected. To Hon
B. F. Hilton, of Osborne, belongs mucl
of the credit for the agreement upon
reasonably fair and honest report. Tn,
greater part of the work of checking
up the bonds was done by him.

SCHOOL FUND REPORT.
The Investigating Committee Makes De.
tailed Report.

VANp4VA pIOVAN1uB Ava OhO ~PPO4H"AoOHV
Of q committee consisting Of five nlem-
bers of the House and three members
Of the Senate to ascertain the true con-
ditiOn Of the State permanent school
fund, to fix the responsibility of illegal
investments and to make such recon-
mendations as would guard invest
ments In the future. The committee ap-
pointed consisted of Senators billiard,
Carpenter and Brown, and Represen-
tatives Hopkins, Tucker, Hilton, Funk
and Fitzgerald. All Of the members of
the committee except Representative
Hilton and Senator billiard were Re-
publicans. The committee held q
number Of sessions during the summer
and heard testimony in regard to the
manner Of handling the funds.
On September % the committee
found that the fund owned bonds to
the amount Of So, ,099, ,277.2 rs, divided as
follows: School district and board OF
education bonds, $3,441 ,69288; State
bonds, $487,00O; county refunding
bonds, $1,373,700; county funding
bonds, $65,5OO; township refunding
bonds, $4,000; city refunding bonds,
$287, ,O34 .38; city funding bonds, $780,
600; bridge bonds, $53,350; court house
bonds, $26l, 900; jail bonds, $4,000. A
classification by counties is given
which will be reproduced in these col
umns in another issue. There are also
5000 of joint district bonds and $l5,-
900 Of fraudulent bonds. The cash on
hand on that date amounted to $l13,-
2S4.l2.
This makes a total of $6, ,5ll.38,
which has been derived from the fol-
lowing sources: Sale of school lands,
So, 5,l45,202; per cent. of sale of
government lands, $1,04 1882; un-
claimed estates, $l1, ,364.1S; miscells-
neous sources, $16,60l.S9.
A careful examination of the bonds
resulted in the finding Of the follow
ing bonds which are regarded as Of
doubtful value: Cimsrron city bonds,
$4,000; school district bonds of what
was formerly Garfield county, $40, 76Si
Hamilton county bonds, $4,000
Kearney county, 5000; Scott county,
$4,000. These doubtful bonds were
all sold by Republican boards except
the Hamilton county bonds, which were
sold to the Populist board by Redeem
ers McGinley, Crane and Lindsay, of
Topeka, after the latter had removed
the coupons to make a fraudulent
showing that the interest was being
paid regularly, when as a matter OF
fact no interest had ever been paid al
all, These bonds are now in litigation,
and the court will at some future date
state whether they are good or worth
less. The other bonds named, with
the exception of the Scott county issue
are In litigation, and are Of little or M
value, whether the courts hold ths
they are good or not. The CimarroI
bonds are issued on property which II
now assessed at but $4,000. In thu
matter of the Scott county bonds 1t il
found that the issue is in excess of thl
10 per cent. of the valuation Of assess
able property and that they were $50,
OOOin excess of the limit at the time
Of the purchase.

assist In the construction of the State
University, Those bonds on which
the principal and interest are in de-
fault are not numerous, the amount in
default being $4,000.
The committee recommends that the
Board of School Fund Commits.
siOners be more methodical in their
work and that they be more particular
about complying with every detail OF
the statute relating to the purchase of
bonds.
The report scores the Populist board
for buying the Hamilton county bonds
in the following language: "These
bonds were purchased in March, 1894,
under circumstances that reflect great
discredit upon the State School Fund
Commissioners. They acted either
corruptly or in gross neglect of the dis
charge of their duties, as with ordi-
nary care the doubtful status Of these
bonds could have been ascertained and
their purchase avoided"
The Republican board which pur-
chased the Kesrney county bonds,
which was an equally bad transaction,
is let down easy, as the following will
show: "Their issuance appears to
have been irregular to say the least,
and in purchasing such bonds the
School Fund Commissioners showed
either lack of ordinary pru-
dence or a carelessness deserving of
severe censure." In referring to the
boards (Republican) action in buying
the Scott county bonds, the report
says: "We feel justified, however, in
saying that the School Fund Commis-
sIoners should never have purchased
these bonds for the reason that the in
debtedness of the county, at the time
of the purchase, largely exceeded the
lawful limit of 10 per cent. of the as
sessed valuation. The records show
that in 1892, when these bonds were
purchased, the valuation of the county
was 1887 1865, while its bonded indebt-
edness was $178,000. Had the School
Fund Commissioners strictly and faith
fully obeyed the letter of the law, as
bound by their oaths, these bonds
would never have been purchased and
the amount of bonds of doubtful value
here mentioned would have been
smaller by $4,000. This committee
further finds that in many cases the
several Boards of School Fund Com
missioners seem to have utterly disre-
gsrded the law and their duty by
purchasing bonds of counties and mu-
inequalities which were indebted be.
yond the statutory limit contained in
section 1854 of the General Statutes Of
1889. While we find most of such
bonds good and worth their face, yet
we consider the aforesaid disregard Of
the law as highly censurable."
AS no charge of that kind was made
against the Populist board, the last
finding undoubtedly refers to Repub-
lican boards.
The recommendations made by the
committee are as follows:
'In regard to the S15,9OO fraudulent
school district bonds, the 81 900 Sara
toga bonds and the 100000 of bonds
of the city of Lawrence issued in aid
of the State University, we recommend

Game Birds at Home.

By Theodore .. Van Dyke.
 "To the majority of sportsmeu love of nature is the principal element q the love of hunting. The pleasure of exer- cising skill in the finding and c pture of game is really secondary to this, and still more subordinate is the flavor or size of the game. Thousands euJoy q stroll with the dog, out of season, almost as well as the real hunt. To please such. book should be made up of selected charms of the field"
 Thus opens the preface to a pretty volume hich-written with all of NIT. Van Dykes facile but keen observation and in his fluent, lucid, sparkling styIe -is one to fascinate not only the snort man, but the nature-lover who never carries 8 gun or follows dog.
 "Why the acton of certain birds will give men more delight than that of otAers Is one of natures secrets" ssys MT. Van Dyke; "we Cnly only say it is charming, and describe It Rs we know It." And so, with many practical sug- gestion, and many an illustrative story, the author portrays the skill of man, the sagacity of dog, the natural scenery where the various game birds make their home. and in rapid succession des- cribes the hauDts and habits of Bob white" woodcook. ruffied, pinnstcd eud sharp-tailed grouse, ducks of divers sorts, wild geese, American cranes plover, California quails, Wilson's snipe, vsrlouS saltwater birds, and at the close,
 'the uoolest of all American game" the wild turkey.
 Mr. Van Dyke is an enthusiast, both In hunting and in the poetical enjoy ment Of nature. His habits of percep- tion-naturally sharp, no doubt, but 1 acumiDated by "sorty years of play with the gun and and eighteen years of writ ing for the sportsmen of Amer.ca"- are remarkable for an almost microsco- pic tneness of sight and knowledge of detail, which, however. do not bIind his
