OBJECTS TO LAR1MER's STYLE.
Populist Member Doesn't Like to
Hear a Shawnee Representa-
tive Talk

Brown of Pratt this morning pitched
into Larimer of Shawnee, during the
discussion of the school text book BILL
comparing Larimer's speeches to the
''trinklings of a little rill.''
Brown said: Il have been a juror
many times in my life and the judge
always instructed me to weigh the evil
dence very carefully. I have sat here
during this session and listened to the
trinklings of that little rill over there
poin ting to Larimer. Il don't believe
that in any of the speeches he has
made there has been a particle Of sin
cerity. The malicious leer which is
always apparent upon his physiognomy
indicates that he intends and aims to
consume the time of this house foolish
ly. He gets up and it is, 'yaw, yaw,
yaw' all the time. l am always willing
that every man on this floor shall have
an opportunity to express his senti-
mentS, but when every action indicates
that he is simply antagOniZing the pol
icy of other members, and to consume
time, it becomes almost unbearable. 1
have made no charges upon this floor,
but when a man gets upon this floor
and argues, argues and obstructs, it
begins to look suspicious. However,
I will say that in the future when the
gentleman from Shawnee makes
speeches it would be better were he to
abandon that leer and cooperate with
US in an effort to accomplish some
thing"
Mr. Larimer did not reply.

PLAY HORSE WITH A NAME.
Mr.. Rat Applies to the Legislature
to Change His Name

A to be pitied Individual, residing
somewhere in Reno county, whose an
ceStOrs by some malicious streak of
fortune became possessed of the sur
name Rat" and carefully handed it
down unchanged from generation to
generation, succeeded in having a bill
introduced in the present house of rep
reSentatiVeS asking that he be allowed
by law to establish q new family name.
The members of the house, realizing
the mans unfortunate plight. cheerful
ly acceded to the request and passed
the bill, but when it reached the senate
Saturday afternoon it met an entirely
different fate. Not only did the mem
bers of that body ruthlessly slaughter
the bill, leaving Mr.. Rat to continue
living with a name which is undoubt-
eddy the bane of his life, but they also
took the opportunity of having fun at
Mr.. Rats expense.
The bill came up under the consider
alton of local measures, and was at
once opposed by Senator Farrelly, who
stated that the senate had decided not
to change any names, and had turned
down bills of a similar nature. and that
no exceptions to the rule should be
made. He was followed by Senator
Hessin, who said:
L know the rule of this body has
been not to act favOrably on measures
of this kind, but if there was ever an
exception 1 think we have reached it
in this case. l think that we should
not only grant this mans request, but
should also give MN a name, ana L
therefore offer as an amendment that
the word hole be attached to the name
Rat
Senator Farrelly: AS an amendment
to the amendment, I ask that the
amendment be laid under the table.
Senator Hessin: AS an amendment
to the amendment to the amendment,
1 want the man who proposed it to be
laid under the table with my amend
ment.
Senator Jumper: I move that the
amendment to the amendment to the
amendment, and the men who proposed
the amendments, be all stuffed in the
hole together
With all the fun, nobody said any
thing that even approached second
class wit.
Some member finally moved that the
bill be recommended not to be passed.
This motion carried, and Mr.. Rat will
be compelled to either bear up I'M
der his load for at least two years
longer. or apply to the district court in
his county to give him the relief he
wants. The latter is the shortest and
most satisfactory way to manage such
matters, and the legislature is justified
in not paying attention to bills to
change names.

DEMAND ACTION
Sedgwick County Sends a Warning to
the Legislature

The Populist members Of the IegisIa-
ture from Sedgwick county have re-
ceived from their constituents the fol-
lowing petition. which has been intro
duced and read in the house and SEN
ate:
I'VE, but a very small portion of
your many constituents, ask leave to
say that we view with alarm the near
approach of the close of the present
session of the legislature without even
probability in sight of the enactment
of a maximum freight law.
I'VE would kindly ask to you to re-
member that our reform papers led the
way in a demand for a maximum
freight law; for the taxation of notes
and mortgages as other property is
taxed; taxing only the equities held in
property to the mortgagors; for the in
itiative and referendum These were
the three main planks in a great ma
jority Of our party platforms, and
spread by the secretaries of our town
ship, county and state conventions with
a bold hand throughout the minutes
of their proceedings.
I'VE would further represent that all
our speakers. orators and crossroads
politicians waxed warm in defense of
these and other measures of reform in
our auditoriums, public halls and school
houses in every district of the state;
and more, the majority of the people
of our great state approved the prin-
cipleS presented in these planks and
sealed their approval and with their
throughout, a supreme court and a
good working majority in the senate
and house of representatives thereby
making it possible for the several re-
forms mentioned in our platforms to be
enacted into laws by our legislature,
executed by our governor and other
state and county officials, and, when
appealed from, to be supported by our
supreme court.
I'VE beg to ask you what now, if any

is most evenly distributed. it is wealth
that consumes the least possible fer

more reasonable does it not seem that
Kansas export to Europe or elsewhere
one carload of butter instead of 100 car
loads of corn, the exact market value
being the same in said proportions. But
even here our butter comes in contact
with the imitation article. The result
is that the reputation of the American
butter is hurt, to an extent of say only
one OF two cents per pound but this
means vast sums to the American dali
rymen. If only five per cent of the
whole is consigned to the outside world
this small proportion necessarily rules
the price for our home sales, If they do
not constitute 95 per cent of the whole
The dairy industry of Kansas is about

tatiOn article that can, if necessary. be
sold for prices ruinous to the honest
dairyman. Respectfully.

CREAMERY MEMS SIDE.
Want the Legislature to Pass An oleo
Bill Yet

To the Editor of The State Journal:
With your permission I would like to
say a few words regarding the position
our house of representatives has taken
on the oleo question Dairying has be-
come quite important in Kansas and
especially in the central portion OF the
state; important enough to say that in
most localities ii is the most engrossing
question of the day. Dairying is look
ed as the one feature that may yet
redeem Kansas, and put her on the
right road to prosperity. A question
that vitality interests her people is the
oleO business, and we desire that this
matter is looked at right. I will not
enter into a discussion for or against,
but desire to answer few remarks that
your paper has reported made by differ
ent representatives. I refer to the dis
cussion and defeat of the senate bill No.
116, on February 25th, in the house OF
representatives. Mr.. Brown of Pratt,
remarks that the creamery lobby in be-
half of this bill, was most persistent
and it's methods disgraceful This lob
by was wholly voluntary, its members
were spending their time and money for
something that is really only of impor-
lance to the farmers. If the cOmpeti-
ton of cleo reduces the price on butter
the creameries pay less and the farmers
suffer. if on the other hand, the cheaper
substitute cannot be sold for super
Tor article by deceiving the customer,
the farmers will receive more. If this
lobby has been persistent, we may ex-
cuSe them on the grounds that they ad-
VOca ted this principle: That fraud shall
be exposed and not protected by law.
Mr.. Brown, undoubtedly has his mind
made up on sound money, free silver,
protection and free trade. He however
has not the chance of utilizing these
views. He is a member of the state
legislature, making laws for Kansas
We might have expected that legisla-
tors would take time to investigate mat
tiers of vital Importance to US, if not
to the whole nation. Mr.. Brown of
Pratt and Mr.. Johnson of Labette, are
displaying deplorable ignorance on the
subject when they remarked: THAT if
this oleo bill passed it would place the
men and women selling milk wholly at
the mercy OF the creamery combine"
There is no combine among creamery
men, while there might be among pack
ers. There is no industry where as
many farmers are interested, be it CO.
operative creameries or stock conpan-
les; they not only sell milk but share in
the profits. in fact, they Outnumber the
individual creamery man good many
times. Can there be such a thing as a
combine among men who raise corn and
wheat? 1t is just as Impossible among
men interested in dairying. When this
bill was called March End, the question
was whether it should be reconsidered,
Mr.. Taylor of Wyandottee, is favorable
if the bill be changed SO that oleo in
imitation of butter. might be nanufac-
tured and exported. The dairy indus
try of this country means millions of
dollars every year; this is wealth that

terial reductions in salaries at state ed
ucational institutions.
Mr.. Fairchild says; 1.-THE sweeping
reductions of senate bill No. SAL show a
disregard of certain definite laws of
supply and demand, as real in the edu-
catiOnaI market as in the market for
live stock. A farmer investing his
money considers the value of the mar
ket, and does not expect to buy blood
ed stock for the price of scrubs, or ma
tured stOckers for the price of yearlings.
In the educational market, a thorough
ly trained teacher of any special scien-
ce represents not only a selected talent
for investigation and teaching, but a
cash investment of from 81, 900 to $4,000
for his training, while spending a good
ten years of the prime of early man
hood with little or no earnings. Such
teachers are the strength of our inSti-
tutions, and can be had and retained
sweeping reductions of the bill, such
teachers may remain; but who can
blame them if they do not? Should
they leave, how can the regents supply
their places at salaries fixed except
from an inferior grade or from young
and untried beginners? In either case
the stability of the institution must be
shaken in the confidence of the people,
and it's grand work be marred for years
at uncounted cost. The same condi-
lions exist in each of the other institu-
lions, and similar results must follow
there.
The bill in question is upon it's face
narred by unfair Determinations and
carelessness as to facts. Illustrations
are abundant throughout. Mr.. Fair
child then proceeds to show the many
good reasons why the bill is unfair and
in many instances unreasonable.
In conclusion he says: Il cannot but
express the candid opinion of friends in
every rank, that under the policy en-
bodied in senate bill No. 541, the State
Agricultural college, which has grown
under my oversight from comparative
obscurity to be granted the chief place
among its kind in America, would be
reduced to "a rank below the best city
high school for want of a reasOna BILE
self government. Similar effects must
reach all the institutions, and every ed
ucational interest of the state must suf-
fer with them. With the earnestness
of interest given by q life of 81 years in
college work, l plead with every friend
of education-every earnest man-to
use his influence against such a sweep
ing destruction of interests dear TO
every Kansan.'
