DAIRY MEN BEATEN.
The House Works Late on the oleo-
margarine Bill

The anti-oleomargarine bill for which
the dairymen of Kansas have been con-
tending before every legislature which has
assembled for ten years. has again been
defeated-and defeated in the house of its
friends-the so-called friends of the farm
ing interests.
The bill was taken up yesterday after
noon following the death of Mr. House

born fights of the session. The house as

Mr.. CubbiSon, Brown OF Pratt. Fair

at the same time drive the manufacturers

would not prevent them selling the prod

issued by the same officer showing that
the remaining 81, 900 of the bonds, a to-
tai of 800, 900 had been cancelled"
These certificates were duly filed in
the office of the state treasurer and the
money for the new bonds was there
upon advanced by the state of Kansas.
The evidence shows that the money
advanced upon those certificates was
forwarded to the National bank of the
Republic in New York city and used to
buy up the old bonds, the state money
being used to advance a .specula-
ton. Whether or not the school fund
commissioners were deceived by the
certificate from the clerk of Cowley
county remains to be seen.
The action of the county clerk in is
suing the certificate under the prOViS-
ions of the law makes him amenable to
proceedings by which he may be ousted
from office. The old board of school
fund commissioners are out of office
now and nothing will proba bly, result
from the investigation beyond showing
the public how bond deals can be car
ried on.

MR.. KEEPER FIRES IT OFF.
Arises to Question of Privilege and
Talks Words-Just Words.

Representative Walters resolution,
calling upon the house telegraph and
telephone committee for an accounting
for bills which had been referred to the
committee, has been referred to that
committee.
The consideration of the resolution
caused Mr.. Keefer, who is chairman of
the committee, to rise, and, under a
question of personal privilege, to say:
Mr.. keefer then made a speech, in
which he said, among other things:
Il desire to explain to the chair and
to this house, that have, in the inter-
est of harmony and good fellowship, de-
ferred to my feelings so long as to allow
the impression among some sources,
that 1 am a disturbing element amid
the deliberations upon this floor.
There is, perhaps, nothing in the af-
fairs Of ones life surrounded with more
anxiety and deeper concern than that
period of his existence which compels
him to admit that he has been following
false gods, and that his whole education
and theories of government are false.
Six years ago in a heavy sea and fog
gy weather, 1 grounded upon the sandy
beach of the Omaha platform which
caused me to fold my wings and retire
within the cacoon of reason to thorough
ly prepare and equip myself for the
fight of the new century. Among other
matters taken into consideration was
the SeVering of old political affiliations
which were dear to me, not only be-
cause had been taught early with my
prayers that they were true, but of the
closer ties OF DlOOQ, InaC DOunQ me
closely to- one of the most prominent
families in the nation, whose head stood
shoulder to shoulder with Lincoln in his
troubles.
'AIl these had been duly considered
and weighed before 1 decided TO cut
the bridges behind me and stand up
with the new genera tion-with the Pop
ulist party-for the fight to exterminate
the vicious system we are now living
under and declare for the universal
brotherhood of man. These had been
considered we'll, and when venal bank
ers' journals and corporation papers
attacked my motives and paid special
attention to me. 1 felt that I was doing
my duty we'll, and if they will continue,
1 will be grateful indeed for their graf
uitous advertisement of the cause rep
resent. But there was one thing 1 had
overlooked, the wolf in sleeps cloth
ing the man. who sets his own selfish
ness above thfneause of his party. and
for petty spiteful reasons seeks to pull
all down because they may at one time
have opposed his WILL
Mr. Keefer was interrupted several
times in response to- which he exclaim-
ed with warmth: When the car of this
house (Weilep) is absent think 1 ought
to be permitted to speak without inter
ruDtiOQ''

MISSOURI HEARD FROM.
Stock Yards Committee Say They
Have Not Changed Their Minds.

According to Chairman J. H White
cotton of the Missouri legislatures COM
mittee on live stock, there is no dispo-
sition among them to take exception
to the Kansas bill, but there is some
doubt about Missouri securing any
stock yards regulations from the legis-
lature.
Chairman Whitecotton in a letter to
Chairman Jaquins of the Kansas COM
mittee, received late yesterday after
noon, denies that the Missouri commit
tee has receded from its agreement to
accept the Kansas bill pertaining to
stock yards. The letter is as fol-
lows:
Il see by Kansas City papers that
your committee feels hurt by what was
purported to have been said by myself
and some members of the committee
with reference to your committee. Now,
there is no truth in these statements.
Our committee holds your committee
in the highest respect. I think the
purpose of all this is to get our COM
mittees into a wrangle, SO that moth
ing will be done.
1--WE are taking testimony in St Louis
and we have learned that the Illinois
legislature has appointed a committee
to confer with US here. L want you
to keep me advised as to what progress
you are making with your bill and
whether any change has been made, as
we wish to conform as nearly as we
can to your bill. You know we have
quite a different condition in our state
to what you have in Kansas. We have
two small yards wholly in our state
which are going to fight US hard, and
we may be compelled to change our
bill on that account and we may be
wholly unable to pass any bill. The
newspapers seem to have had it in
for your committee from the start I
wish 1 could see you and show you how
some of the gentlemen who gave US
testimony have toned down. The Kan
sas City papers are for the stock yards
and will do anything they can to get US
into a muddle. Please keep me posted
without regard to what the papers
say

REcoNs1DERs IT'S ACTION.
House Agrees to the North and South
Railroad Committee.

The house has reconsidered the vote
OF Saturday, by which the concurrent
resolution providing for the appoint
ment of the committee to confer with
similar committees from Texas and Ok
lahOma with view to securing lower
railroad rates in the three states, was
defeated. The motion to reconsider was
at first killed by a vote of SO to so.
Members of the house argued that
since the house had taken the first step
towards securing the appointment of
this committee that it would be a dis
grace to go back on it now after Texas
had acted on it.
{ After the strength of the opposition
had been exhibited a number of votes
were changed making the final result
SO to so in favor of reconsideration
which will provide for the appointment
of the committee

CONCERT INCIDENTS.
How Those Who Couldn't Get Seats
Tried to Get Along.

There were a few people who did not
get seats at the band concert last night
and Sam Radges and G. G. Gage were
two of them but they enjoyed the con-
cert just the same or at least pretend
ed that they did.
Both men sat in the right aisle on the
steps leading to the parquet seats.
Finally Mr. Radges tired of his posi-
ton and secured a camp stool. He
propped himself back against the wall
prepared to enjoy the music without
interruption when suddenly snap went
the chair and Mr. Radges fell back
against the seats in time to prevent hav
ing his manly form spread over the aisle
floor The noise of the breaking chair
attracted the attention of the people
in the vicinity but though Mr.. Radges
blushed he held his ground He brac-
ed himself against a pillar and said
with a sigh of relief Now. if the build
ing don't give way I'm all right"
When Mr. Gage got tired of his place
on the steps he adopted another course
where there was no danger of falling.
He stretched himself at full length on
the floor and in that position listened
