On that day not only will hymns be sung in honor of the sons of the Sum- flower State, but contemptuous stare, bitterer than the blizzard, will be hurled at the cormorants of the east. Hurled is the proper word, and cormorants know what to expect Our esteemed contem- porary, the Topeka State Journal, pre- fers to fling. It says that Kansas day should be used to glorify our state and fling back in the faces of the eastern detractors our defiance of their abuse and malignant misrepresentation. ]" That is the talk
