Not so. They have then paid less than

pay the other thirty. nine foEtieths to

continually increase. Kansas to-day,
on account Of scarce money, has more
foreclosures and evictions than Ire

But more money alone will not give us

be that Government ownership Of sll

acting maximum freight rate laws and
giving the Railroad Commissioners
