socialist Fnnd. in state Bonds.

Much amusement has been created in
Germany by the discovery that almost the
entire funds Of the powerful socialist and
anarchist movement in the domnions of
Emperor William are invested for safety In
Prussian and German government bonds
This fact has been brought 10 light through
the publication of financial report by the
leaders Of the movement. appealing for
subscriptions and complaining that during
the last year the expenses have been SO
heavy and the contributions relatively so
small that the treasurers found themselves
unable 10 invest the same amount OF money
IN government bonds as In previous years.

EXOTICS FOR AMERICA.
United States Special Agent Home
ward Bourd From Australia

Denver. July I'D G. FairchiId of
Washington. D. c., special agent for
the department of agriculture, was a
caller at the office of Secretary Shute
of the board of agriculture yesterday.
He arrived in the morning from San
Francisco and left in the afternoon for
Washington, where he will report to DR..
Fernow of the department. Of forestry
on matters which have kept him
abroad during the last four years.
Mr.. Fairchild went to Europe immedi-
ateIy after the Worlds fair and took up
special studies
A short time after locating there he
received a request from the United
States forestry commission to take trips
to Africa and Australia with view to
selecting certain exotic plants which
might be raised in America
Mr. airchiId has spent some time in
visiting foreign countries and left or
ders for samples of hundreds of trees
and plants which would be useful If
raised in the United States, to be sent
here as soon $ test places are provided

FALL ELECTIONS.
Only Four States Have Elections for
Governor.

Washington, DC, July 15.-Onfy four
states in the union will elect governors
this fall
They are Ohio. Iowa, Virginia and
Massachusetts. There will be brisk
contest in Ohio, as on the selection OF
a legislature will depend the election OF
a United States senator In 1884 Ohio
went Republican by 137, 900, IN 1885 by
49, 900 and in 1896 by Al 600
Mark Hanna is q candidate to sue
coed himself for the full term as Uni
ted States senator Opposed to him is
John R. Mclean, Democrat
Iowa has been carried twice for gov
ernor by the Democrats in the past
eight years Now the silver RepubIi-
cans and POpulists have fused with the
Democrats The GerHsan-Amerfcan are
dLsgruntled over the prohibition law
and viii vote largely with the Demo-
Gratis A lively fight Is expected there.
Massachusetts, ordinarily RepubIf-
can, may turn to the other side. The
closing down of six large cotton mills
in Worcester, Conn. soon after the last
presidential election. has Furnished food
for thought These mills are the prop
erty of Secretary of the Interior Bliss
1t was promised the operatives that IN
case of McKinIey's election. they would
have money to burn, but the working
men are now idle.

" 4 Kansas Institution just the same as
it was when with its few miles it started
Now that it has reached its greatness.
what more natural than that there should
be a grand celebration in which officials
and employees should meet and commem-
crate the -event2 Kansas wants TO help
and 50 does Topeka. The railroad Off
Gals have consented to the idea and are
backing it up with money and sugges-
tons Now let the employees all over
Kansas do their share and furnish men
and ideas for floats and all will be well.
The foolish idea should not creep in
that because the celebration will be held
in Topeka nothing should be done. There
is no other town IN the state with the
great resources that Topeka has There
probably is no other town in the state
willing to do as much for a grand ceIe-
brdtion like this as the capital city. Bet
ter than all, she is willing to show her
faith by her works and is contributing
freely of money. of time and of brains
to make the affair a go. 1t stands in
hand the railroad men of Kansas in gen
eral and of Newton in particular to assist
TO the best of their ability. Don't allow
any of that oId-fashioued prejudice of
Topeka to enter in, or it will spoil every
thing Simply go to work and make your
plans to go to Topeka on Santa Fe day
and have a good time The officials,
President Ripley and the others, will be
there to view the great parade and they
viii be proud of their employees if there
shall be a grand turnout
Organize at once. Push the celebration
Devote little of your time to thoughts
of how much you can do to help out.
Don't delay. Go to work now.
