This is the time of year when young
boys and girls leave school-public,
normal, academic, college and unvers-
ity. would give them all this advice !:
Don't try SO hard to earn money, as try
to live happily within the means of your
income. Many parents make the mis-
take of trying to educate their children
and to qualify them to earn large salar-
les. 1t is better to teach them to live
economically, and to teach to abstract
from a moderate income the largest
amount of comfort and happiness.
This is not original. 1t is stolen from
the Quaker woman's sermon, who said.
1T is not what you get, but what you
save that makes you rich, and from
Plato. who said "After man has at
tained to fortune, he shonld rather study
to curtail his desires than to int rease it, y
or words to the same effect-Qulquefois

FOR POSTAL BANKS
And Against Hawaiian Annexation is
the Position of the Fedora
tion of Labor.

Nashville, Tenn, Dec. 15.-At yesterday 5
session of the American Federation of
Labor convention the committee on reso-
lutions offered resolution ordering the
establishment of postal savings banks by
congress and advising the secretary to
issue circular urging immediate action in
the matter. A motion to have bill
drafted by the incoming executive COM
mittee providing for the establishment OF
postal savings banks and secure its intro
duction in congress was carried.
The Hawaiian annexation question came
up on a report from the committee on
resolutions and produced some discussion.
The committee reported on a resolution
opposing the annexation of Hawaii, Of
fered by T. J. Elderkin, and presented the
following substitute:
Whereas. There is at present pending
in the United States senate a treaty pro>
viding for the annexation of the Hawaiian
islands, and,
Whereas, That annexation would be
tantamount to the admission of a slave
state. the representatives of which would
necessarily work and vote for the enslave>
rnent of labor in general: therefore, be it.
Resolved. by the American Federation
of Labor. That we disapprove of annexa>
ton; and.
Resolved. That we urge the United
States senate TO reject the treaty of an
nexation and to take such other steps as
may be necessary to maintain amicable
relations with Hawaii"
Andrew Furuseth made a warm speech
opposing the annexation, and George E.
Mcneil suggested that the substitute be
amended so as to provide for the incom>
ing executive council laying the matter
before congress. and. if necessary. before
the president, showing the opposition of
the federation to annexation.
The substitute as amended was adopted.
A resolution was adopted providing for
the organization of all stationary engin-
eers, preparatory for making the fight for
an eight hour day on May l, 1895.
At night an old fashioned barbecue was
given the delegates at Tulane. Speeches
were made by many delegates and Cow

ANNIE DIGes IN TOWN.
Says the Legislature Ought to AboI
ish metropolitan Police System.

Mrs Annie Diggs who is to be the new
state librarian was in Topeka few
hours yesterday. Speaking of the cal
ling of an extra session of the legisla-
ture Mrs. Diggs said:
I don't know what the legislature
will do, but I do know what should be
taken up first. The metropolitan DO
lice law should be repealed the first
day. 1t is undemocratic and vicious,
and downs every administration in
Kansas that attempts to carry it.
The next most important question.
according TO my way of thinking is
coal oil inspection. A stringent law
should be passed governing that de-
partment. 1t is a source Of too much
corruption and scandal under the pres
ent system.
The question which ranks third in
Importance is the railroad question.
We ShOuid enact some railroad law.
We promised it. Of course they ex-
pected a maximum law. with schedules
fixed by the legislature, but would no
doubt now be satisfied If a law giving
the railroad commissioners power to
fix rates should be passed. But some
law must be passed governing rail-
roads.
But would it not be dreadful if the
Legislature got together and acted like
it did last winter?" unused Mrs Diggs.
in a sOrrOwful tone. IF it is likely to
do that, then it would be wise for the
governor never TO call it together -
Asked what she thought of the at
tack made by Representative W. F.
Brown on Senator Harris she emphat-
ically stated that Brown had made a
serious mistake She said that his at
tack had not injured Senator Harris in
the least; that whatever aspirations
Brown had were now blasted The ueo-
pie had lost confidence in him. and also
their respect for him.

GIANTS BATTLE.
Armour and Letter Contend for
Control of the Wheat Market.

Chicago, Dec 15.-The Tribune says to-
day:
There are just seventeen days left to
deal The chances for fireworks and old
time corner prices are scarcely so bright
as they were some time ago Letter is
learning something about the possibilities
of Chicago as a receiving market and
about the resources of Armour
Earlier in the season Letter gave Ar
mour, who came back from Europe a
dollar wheat bull. some points on how
TO act promptly. but in the last two days
the local stock of wheat has been increas,
ed by $4,000 bushels. Such movement
is simply phenomenal and represents a
part of the energetic campaign by Ar
Hour and Weare. The last cargoes of
an abnormal Chicago movement
aggregating S.645.OOO bushels, are arriv-
ing The bulk of this has been contra ct
wheat brought down for the special ben
eft of the market made by Mr.. Letter. 1t
has been variously disposed of. Part of
it has gone into the house elevators and
part into private houses.
Armour knows just how much contrac It
wheat is here. Letter would give a snug
sum for the exact i1eSoHRaation to how
much of the Chicago Stock has come here
TO fill short sales to him, and how much
is here to be dumped out on December
advances such as those of last Friday and
last Monday. The chance of pyrotech-
MICS is in the speculative market for De-
cember wheat The real battle is in the
cash property Letter has been holding
a large assortment of speculative cards
and has been playing them rapidly. He
has brought the deal up from July to Sep
tember and from September to Decem-
ber but only recently has been pushing
prices to a point to bring wheat from all
directions.
Letters operations, and more particu-
larly his announcements of plans to move
the entire Chicago stock of wheat out of
the country have put wheat to $1.09, and
by forcing Chicago out of line with other
markets has started an avalanche of
wheat to Chicago.

does not know that Mr. Coburn has
been the most efficient and painstaking
secretary the state board of agricul-
ture has ever had.
He was indorsed by the annual meet
ing of the board last January for the
position of secretary of agriculture un-
der President Mckinley. The men who
paid Mr.. COburn this high compliment
were members of all political parties.
Mr.. COburn is a practical farmer and
made the department useful to the
state. Not many years ago he was
plodding along a corn row. following
the cUltivatOr, revolving in his own
mind some of the possibilities of agri-
culture Later he engaged in the pub
lcation of a live stock and farmers
paper which was the standard among
American publications. Several years
ago he was selected to the position
which he now occupies and one which
he has filed with eminent success.

vOlved in this troublesome question OF
delinquent taxes.
The delinquent taxes amount to SOW
eral hundred thousand dollars and the
various counties claim credits amount
ing to similar amounts
The claims come from all over the
state. but are based on different
grounds.
Some counties claim credits because
of the penalty of 10 per cent which
was inflicted by the state alleging that
in reality there was no cause for so do
ing.
Others claim credits on account of
double and erroneous assessments and
decline to settle in accordance with the
books in the auditors office.
Many other counties claim credits on
account of personal property, in instan-
ces where an execution for taxes was
ordered and the sheriff returned the
warrant endorsed mo property found
Harper county claims a credit of
over this claim the mandamus proceed
ings are likely TO arise. The county Of
ncers refuse to pay the amount de-
manded by the auditor on what appears
TO be good and sufficient grounds. The
auditor is not disposed to enforce the
collection of money which the counties
do not owe the state but he is making
an earnest effort to get the records
sof the department straightened out.
In the Harper county proceedings
the attorney general Will demur to the
petition and submit the questions to the
court In this manner there will he
the decision will settle many disputed
points.

PLOW THROUGHTO DAWSON
Steam Snow Plows Will be Placed on
the Trail.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The plan of
using steam snow locomotives to open
and maintain communication between
the outside world and the KIondike
country has not been abandoned by
any means. Secretary Alger has been
in consultation with several represen-
tatives of a company which has already
made ten of these unique locomotives.
and the secretary, who is intensely So
licitous to extend aid to the miners
who are supposed to be suffering from
lack of food, authorized them to pro-
ceed to ship the machines to Alaska
and make the effort to get through the
interior. The plan is to use either
the Chilkoot pass and Dalton trail or
White pass, with the preference to the
former route.
The men who were at the war depart
ment assured Secretary Alger that
they could take the locomotive up eth
er of these passes with the possibility
of requiring the assistance of cable
power in one place about half a mile
long.
Once over that place, near the head
of Chilkoot pass. there would be no
difficulty. they said, in making good
time across country over the snow to
Ft. Selkirk, and thence to Dawson.

TOWERS OF FLAME
Seen on the SUMS Surface
Will Soon Shoot Over
the Disk.

New York, Dec. 15.-Prof. Garrett P.
Serviss was seen at his observatory at
his Brooklyn home and showed the great
sun spot area through a telescope.
Those whirling masses are apparently
flames" he said, "and, seen through a
spectroscope, would be of a beautiful
roseate color. They are thousands of
miles in height. which will give some idea
of the size of the confiagration that is go
ing on there. 1t is stupendous beyond
comprehension. In a few days there will
be a magnificent sight. The spots are NOV
ing with the sun, and when, by the sun >
rotary motion. they reach the edge. which
they will do in few days. those rosy
flames. thousands of miles in height, will
shoot out over the edge of the suns disk
in magnificent streaks of color.
4 believe that great masses have al
ready been thrown up into the air for
thousands of miles, and. falling back.

through space, have made the great cavl-
ties in the suns surface and also the

sioners has received from Mayor Loo
mis- of Winfield a complaint against the
Santa F'e railroad, alleging discrimina-

PRIEsTSOF PALLASROUSED
They Accuse the Karnival Krews OF
eeKn noeking.n


Kansas City. Dec. 15.-Pallas Athene
and the Karnival Krewe are showing Il
disposition to give a premature exhibition
of fireworks in an effort 10 show that
each has the only greatest show on
earth and that ali others are rank imi-
tations. The KarnivaI Krewe has fntf-
mated that the Priests of PaIIas are back
numbers. and the Priests are beginning to
think that the Krewe is TOO progressive
by half. as the members are credited with
having attempted to collect subscriptions
for the fan festivities by representing
themselves as the only real things and the
main attraction to visitors during Carni-
val week.
At a recent meeting of the Commercial
club Charles J. Schneider. then an officer
of the Karnival Krewe, read a paper Civ
ing the Krewe's opinion of itself and a
decidedly less favorable one of the Priests
of Panas. the general tone being that
Pallas Athene was fun Of sawdust and
only fl for preservation as an interesting
but useless antique The impression got
abroad that the Commercial club had ap-
proved this paper, but at the next meeting
resolutions were passed fndOrsing the
Priests OF Pallas. In spite of the reading
of aIr. Schmelzer's paper, however. the
Krewe claimed to entertain nothing but
the warmest friendship and esteem for its
fellow organization. and expressed the
hope that the two might work in har-
mony.
For few days the case rested with no
further signs of hostility, but now comes
a story about a solicitor for the Krewe
who, ii is alleged. approached a prominent
business man with a request that he sub
scribe to the Krewe fund. Offering as an
argument that the Krewe is the principal
factor in the fan festivities and more
worthy of support than the Priests of
Pallas- But the man approached CHANGED
to be warm supporter of the Priests.
and instead of subscribing said he would
wait and see what was TO be done first.
J. P LOomas. president of the board of
directors of the Priests of PaIlas. told a
reporter that he had not only heard the
story. but had it from such a source that
there was no room for doubt. He further
intimated that such goings on would not
be tolerated. and that unless they We're
soon stopped there would be a sudden
change in the temperature. accompanied
by thunder and lightning.
