at is nc longer bleeding Kansas but re-
deemed Kansas, ne said Our state pos
sesses many advantages aud offers in
ducemeafs TO settlers which they will
fiud nowhere else. We all know that
the concentration OF population in the
large cities has been carried TO such an
extent that il threatens the welfare Of
the nation. Kansas with her boundIess
prAiries, offers homes to thousands, and
homes where they can be Independent of
financial and industrial panic5. Our com
binatlon of soil and Climate will enable
us TO grow nearly everything. Our corn
grows SO tall that you would scarcely
believe me if l told you its height, and
the yield ia far il advance of other
states"
Continuing the article says
"Ihe matter OF this meeting has been
taken up With great enthusiasm by Chi
cage citizens, and Senator ingalls, has
been assured that he will be heartily
welcomed and have large and appreci-
alive audience.
milling has always maintained
that the settlement OF the great western
states would be of almost unlimited ben
eft TO practical mIiers. mill builders and
mill furnisaers. The settling and devel-
Oping OF these states viii necessirate
many new mills, and therefore the wide
awake miller should be deeply interested
in the colonization OF Kansas among
other western states. One great advar-
tage viii be that under = system of irri-
CATION the farms viii be smaller in size

time and expense of long haul"
These remarks by "MiilIng" are in line
with part of an article appearing in

that more Touring mills be built in To-

WHAT Is "DOKCAS" LIKE!
tits Not a Comic Opera. But an operate
CoSnHdr

Comedy.
The Pueblo Chieftain thus speaks of
Pauline Halls "Dorcas." which was pre-
sented at Pueblo last Friday evening:
Those at the Grand opera house last
night who had seen Pauline Hall in past
seasons in comic opera were biz disap-
pointed in the work which she has chosen
this year in which to sing. She, to be
true, is as charming as before. but she is
not Pauline Hall herself, all herself al
the while, as She was when she was in
comic opera, pure and simple. The We
hicle is rot worthy of her at her best
Now and again sac has opportunity 10 be
herself, but in wav there seems to be
something dual about the part she takes,
something beyond the mere disguise that
she assumes for the plot.
''She is surrounded by an excellent
company and all the list Of musical num-
bers, and it is long and we'll selected, IS
deserving OF the enthusiastic approval
given last night, an approval that de-
manded encore after encore. Yet de-
ightful and artistic as they are they
seem too incidental with Pauline Hall as
the star She appears to as great advan
tage as is possible under these condi-
tions, but they are not happy. In
word, Que yearns for Pauline Hall in the
completeness OF her operate personality.
Though all this is true the other side of
ter ability, her capacity as an actress
reading her lines rather than singing
them, is very pleasing. 1t is full of life
and dash.
LAS remarked above the supporting
company Is all that could be asked
Miss Davenport is remarkably clever in
the eccentric part of Griselda. Miss St.
Henry's exquisite voice was given splen-
did opportunity MIR. Eradshaw's Lubin
Mughy is clever Characterization as
one often sees. In the musical passages
Mr.. Saylor appeared much better than in
the speaking situations. His voice is
sympathetic aud we'll shaded. The re-
naming parts were we'll taken. But all
would be more pleasing in more comic
opera and less operate comedy. 'Dorcas'
handicaps them"

P. LBonsbrake in Favor of Compelling a
Full Vote BY Taxation.
Would it or would it it not be a
good idea to tax people eligible to vote
and who do not vote as a matter of COM
polling a full attendance at the polls OF
election day?
A good many Topeka people are in
favor of it or at test believe it would be
a good idea.
The most prominent among these is P.
I. Bonebrake. He says:
81 was in Kansas City last spring on
election day and stopped in at the Metro
politan bank. While I was there talk
ing with him Mr.. Davis. of the bank
took out his watch and said:
"'Well, I guess 1 will have time to go
and vote aud save two dollars
~ asked him what he meant by that
and he told me that the city had imposed
4 city poll tax of 81 on all voters with
the saving clause that every man that
voted should have the tax RENTED or
rather be not taxed at all. It is a splendid
way to bring out full vote and works
well there"
Far the majority of the people who
would be in favor of this scheme in To-
peka are Republicans who feel sure that
in the event it became effective it would
insure Republican victory ~ time
and they are holding up the late sheriff
ship election as an example.
