ANOTHER KANsAN's STORY.

Kansas, considering her youth, has
contributed more than her quota to the
popuIar literature Of the times, while in
trinsically her share has proved OF more
than ordinary note, measured either by
the character delineation of a Dean
Howells or the catchy and idiomistic
dialect of an Ian MacLaren. And it Is
not surprising that a people who lead in
up-to-date innovations and who set the
pace in so many progressive steps
should fail in that other evidence Of
mentality, readable and instructive lit
erature. Another Kansas book has
been published, by the Arena Publish
ing company of Boston, and judging
from the many criticisms and reviews
noted, it is a work that is being read,
consequently selling. The author Is
Mrs. Iibbie Israel Hollinger, and while
she is not the first Wichita woman who
has essayed name and fame in the am
bition of book, it is safe TO say that no
other OF this local station has attracted
UlOTo ludh ctoly
entitled "The Duke and the Humani-
tarian." above alluded TO. 1t deals with
the political and industrial abuses Of
the times, with its proposed reforms
and rotten pretences, in which its follies
are ridiculed. its hypocrisy satired and
the unfortunate pitied. Such work
could not be else than tragedy, but
the somber picture Of discouraging de-
lineations is relieved and frightened
and almost rendered attractive by it's
humorous situations and its sympathetic
lights and shadows, in which the old
story of the upper ten and the lower
million" the millionaire and the misera-
BILE, the cult, the dilettante, and the
prize fighter all play part. The hero is
a hero who devotes his life and all to
the downtrodden and unfortunate, and
at the supremest sacrifice, that of his
life; the heroine being the petted and
spoiled child of luxury. The hero goes
TO the gallows, and the wicked world
wags on in it's laughter and tears, no
worse and probably but little better for
all the efforts put forth by the unsel6sh
in its behalf.

BoTKrN's PrLcHER BILL.

The author of the Pitcher bill is not
the preacher BOtkin. who said he would
rather live in hades than il Wichita
and whom the people elected last fail
TO succeed Dick Blue in congress, but
Judge Botkin whom the Republicans OF
Reno county elected 10 represent them
in the Pop legislature this winter. They
are cousins, these two Botkins, by the
ties of consauguinity, but no earthly
kin, politically, reIigiously or morally.
One stands ON mixed whisky platform;
the author of the Botkin-Pilcher bill,
when he INDUCES, takes his whisky
unmixed. The fee and salary bill, the
maximum freight-rate bill nor any Of
the innumerabIe reform Pop measures
so fa- introduced III the legislature
come anywhere near Botkin's bill for
pinch, close cutting and sensational III
terest. Botkin is a Republican, but his
measure concerns all political parties
and social organizations. AS real pro-
gressive reform no Pop proposition so
far suggested is TO be thought of on the
same day. The Woman's Social Purity
League of Topeka is to discuss the bill
at their next meeting, and men are OF
fering ten dollars for tickets of admis-
sion with no chance of hearing the dis
cussion. Representative hall has been
rendered the public for meeting where
Joe Waters is TO address mixed audi
ence on the subject of Botkin's BILL 1t
is the most far-reaching and fore-short-
ening measure ever confronting the
world since the Almighty issued the
command to it's inhabitants to be fruit
full and multiply. The bill seems TO
hold that such command was mistake,
or at least is not applicable TO these Pop
times Our Topeka correspondent trans !
mitted US copy of the bill, but we con- |
GUIDED it unsuitable for publication in |
this sub-tropic latitude. We would like |
to explain the sections of the measure |
for the better information of those who |
have not read them, but we don't know |
just how to do it in such a way as |
would be understood and not shock the |
timid. Its intent is to protect the wo-
men Of Kansas against the men, in /
short and it's effective so far as the men
are concerned. 1t is not apprehended
that women will leave the state in case
the bill becomes a law, but it will be |
we'll for large number Of men if they |
wish TO remain such TO take the first
train. This feature of the result in
wolves the question of increase Of pOpu-
Iation. but In an unexpected and uneX-
ampled direction In short, it is wholly
question of manhood. If the state at
large should become as thoroughly eX-
cited over Botkin's bill as are the wo-
men of Topeka, the BradleyMartin ball
and even the Inauguration set for the
ith OF March would be lost sight of.
The same measure was up once before
In the Kansas legislature, only 1t was
made applicable to male bovines run
ming at large. Senator Gamble of Leav-
enworth and Senator Click of Wyan-

appeals in behalf Of the young, innocent

Another holiday interrupts bu mess,
but ~ welcomed nevertheless az il will
give the bulls an opportunity TO lay plans
for the coming campaign and the bears
will have chance TO cover their shorts
without further delay. In other words,
it looks as though bull market had just
been inaugurated and, unless all signs
fail, boom in prices seems inevitable.
The week opened auspiciously tor the
bulls with an important decision by the
supreme court to the effect that the Inter
State Commerce Commission had no
power to fix maximum or minimum
rates. This was 10 extremely favorable
for the railroads that the shorts began
to cover and the traders began to lay in

the week closed with prices in most cases
from j to 3 points higher than at the
close OF the previous week. There were
several instances in which declines were
recorded for special reasons connected
directly and individually with the prop

whole was buoyant and had the appear
