THE Kansas City Star seems TO know
much about the textbook bill and the
alleged lobby working for its dofeat.
The Star claims that the American
Book company is using Doodle to
kin the measure, since 1t supplies the
books in use at present The Star
might 90 on aud tell what it
knows about Crane, Rand, McNally,
& Co., Heath, and other book publish
log houses that are Interested in the
passage Of the bill and who doubtless
are using big money TO attain their de
sired object. II all that is heard on
the streets is TO be believed, it is simply
case Of one Doodle lobby trying to
Town another Doodle lobby. But with
all the Doodle talked Of il is having
little effect on this assembly. The
nembe are not built that way. The
LEADER is not aware OF any crooked
work being done, but one thing is
certain, the passage OF the textbook
bill at this time would work irrepar-
able harm to the territory The books
now in use would be thrown out and
the school patrons would be forced to
pay out from $40 to SEQ each for new
su applies.

There has been some confusion and

taxes OF ccrtSin Indian reservations

Pawnee counties. IL has beel impC--
sible to make them contribute their
fair proportion Of the public expenses
10 the past and in order 70 remedy
that defect aud make certain the col
lection OF the taxes Of these reserva-
tions, Mr. Doyle has introduced house
bill los, ea arging the boundaries OF
those counties named by including in
their limits the reservations OF the
Cheyenne and ArapAhoe country, the
Ossge reservation, south Of the town
ship line between townships 25 and 26,
in Pawnee county, out north Of that
line in Kay county.
This will tighten the burdens Of the
Taxpayers OF those counties and will
enable the white settlers in those res
ervations to enjoy the privileges OF
school districts, in addition TO these
advantages OF county government
which they already have; and besides,
it will bring to the support OF the
county government OF large amount
OF taxable property. There reserva'
tions are already joined to these coun-
ties for judicial purposes and this act
only makes the legal bonds that Join

COMPELLED THEM TO COME IN
Citrus Fruit Growers Exhibited q PaIpabl
Negligence OF SeIf-Interest

The citrus fair which was in progress
at the chamber of commerce last week
closed on Friday. The fair was sue
cess so far as the quality of the fruit
was concerned and the general interest
taken by the public in the display.
The only thing lacking was more fruit,
and 1t is to be regretted that citrus
growers did not take a greater interest
in the exhibition.
Frank Virgins, of the chamber Of
commerce, said yesterday morning:
''The chamber had intended to hold
the citrus fair annually, but are some
what discouraged at the lack of inter-
est manifested by those who ought most
to be interested in these exhibits. 1t
is now doubtful If an attempt will be
made to hold another fair, 1t was al
most impossible to get an exhibit at all
this year. We had to go out through the
country and persuade. people to do that
which we knew was to their own inter-
est
"The building was we'll filled all
last week with visitors, but the exhibit
so far as variety was concerned was
not creditable one. 1t Is pity that the
fruit growers are not willing to take ad-
vantage of the opportunities offered to
them for advertising their products"
