Harris Calls it Theft.

LAWRENCE, KAs., Oct. Ex-senator William
"A. Harris, while in this city on his wav to
Washington, expressed his indignation at the
determination OF Mckinley and his administra-
ton to consummate the deal made by Attorney
General McKenna with the Morgan syndicate
by which the latter will obtain possession of the
Union Pacific railroad paying the government
only SIS, 900 900 for its claim of S53, 600, 900.
The job, he says, is a clear gift of SIS, 900 900
to the syndicate and theft from the people of
that amount.
"This betrayal of the people is absolutely
without color excuse" said the senator.
81 have recently seen i'll the papers statements
of semi-ofhca character in attempted ex-
PLANTATION of the sale, especially dwelling on
the fact that 1t is an open sale, and that there is
nothing to prevent the prope. ty from bringing
its full value, and that capitalists from abroad
as well as from the United States would COM
pete. This is pure buncolnbe of course. 1t is
a wel-known fact that when such profitable
deal is under consideration and such fat goo:
as the government is to be Dlucked, capitalists
do not compete, but purpously hold off, after
having carefully arranged that the profit shall
be as large as possible, and that the plumber
shall be divided according to agreement be-
tween them. Moreover the sale has been ar
ranged SO that outsider would attempt to bid
for any Of the property. Il is purpousy to be
sold in parcels to prevent interference by par
ties not on the inside Of the deal Would any
sensible investor bid Oil the separate pieces of
the Union Pacific property and run the risk of
securing only detached portion of the system,
here and there?
"Auotler fact apparent in these statements
is that no mention is made of the right duty of
the government to appear a bidder to tie full
amount of the claim The truth is that the
agree nent was made that the government
Should appear in the case only that i: might be
legally foreclosed of all its rights and that it
should not make any bid whatever. An honest
foreclosure is what the law, as haye quoted it,
requires, and the people want. Under the law
the gov rnment should put in bid of the full
amount OF its claim and let the capitalists bid
ding 81 more have the property"
EVERYBODY knows our Legislature did not do
all that it expected to, nor all it should
have done, but it certainly did do much more
for the people than any Legislature of the past
twenty years. 1t is light thing to conquer
an opponent flushed by the victories and braced

from doing nothing. The person who
attempts to go through life avoiding
all effort, letting others carry all the

sown," is likely to make little substan-
tial progress in mental culture or
physical development and strength.

of making a note of all the books bor-

not very large one, placed over the

might clog up the drain is caught by
this netting, and it is the work of a
moment only to empty the pan. So OF

A HELPFUL CORNER.
How to be Helpful.

scribing "a neighbor of hers and as
most of us are imbued with more or
less of the spirit of helpfulness, we
can CLEAN some hints of unlimited
help. She says:

street from me who accomplishes
more than any woman of my ac-
quaintance, and yet she is by no means

or driven" She is prominent mem

vet, like Solomons virtuous woman,
she "looketh we'll unto the ways of
her housebold' Sometimes [ think
this looking well unto the ways of
her household" gives her time for
other things.
Her husbands income is most mod
crate; she has a family of boys and
girls and her house is not very mod
ern, spacious nor convenient, and yet
they all seem to enjoy it so thorough
1y, and have so much more leisure
larger incomes, that they are actually
objects of envy.
She is economical and systematic,
and that of course enables her to ac-
complish great deal; but I think her
faculty for saving herself and family
needless steps and unnecessary work
is the secret of her success. If you
could only see the little, inexpensive
improvements she has put into that
house since she has lived there!
But [ am not going to tell any
household economies or conveniences
that woman could not accomplish
by herself, without any expense. [
only desire to give to busy, overtask
ed, yet ambitious housekeepers few
hints as to the way which the hours
of labor may be made shorter, leaving
as a matter of course more time for
other things. And I will be truthful
and confess that many of these ideas
indeed, the most of them-were bor-
rowed from my bright little neighbor
across the way.
For instance, l am in the habit of
packing all our winter clothing in
trunk during the summer. My neigh
Dor does nothing of the kind, because,
as she says, it gives the clothing
''mussy' look. She has row of hooks
and stretchers in her attic, and dress
es, coats and wraps are carefully ar
ranged upon these. A curtain of cali
co is hung over them, SO they are pro-
tected from light and dust, and if she
has reason to fear moths, little bags
containing moth preventers are hung
with the clothing. The winter under
wear is wrapped in paper, each piece
being plainly marked and packed in
a box labeled ''Winter Underwear
Of course the advantage of all this is
that she or anyone else can at mo-
ment's notice find anything that may
be wanted. In this same attic there
are a number of chests, old trunks,
barrels and boxes, and each one is
marked. On one you may read, "Old

time to keep such things neat" rea-
sons my neighbor. [ notice, however,
that in every room there is a dust bag
and buster, that the sheets and pillow
eases are marked so they will be sure
to be put on the right bed, and that

also notice in each apartment little
ornamental can or box or receptacle
of some sort for the little odds and
ends that are always accommodating in
bedroom.
Out in the hall on this floor there is
a little table well supplied with writ
ing materials, dictionary and books
of reference. This saves many trip
downstairs.
Her sewing room is my special adj
miration. Such tiny affair as it is;
and yet the number of things slowed
in it, and the facility with which they
may be found, is something marvel
Gus. In it there is chest of drawers,
a very crude affair; but it answers
the purpose, for the drawers are all
labeled, and contain unfinished gar
ments, material to be made up, pat
terms and boxes. These boxes in their
turn contain scraps of velvet, silk,
millinery ribbon, ETC., and the con-
tents of each box is plainly written on
the outside. Then there is a row of
bags containing pieces of wash goods,
wooden goods, Innings, etc., and these,
too, are appropriately labeled. She has
a row of little wooden pegs, fastened
on board near the window, and the
spools of different colored thread are
slipped over these pegs, so no time is
lost in hunting for thread.
A broom, dustpan and dust brush
are kept in little closet off the stairs,
and as these articles are to be found
downstairs as we'll, no time is lost, be-
cause ''some one else is using the
broom"
There is a little shelf in the bath
room containing remedies one might
need in case of sudden sickness, and
tackled mp in a conspicuous place is a
set of rules or requests" They re-
late to the proper place for the bath
towel, face towel, washcloth, etc.
''Somehow my boys and girls remem-
Der better when they have a gentle
reminder like this before them every
day, and I hardly ever have to pick
up after Them" says the mother.
Downstairs on the table in the ]iv-
ing room there is a little basket con-
tanning needles, thread, thimble and
scissors, SO that if there is a stitch to
be taken or button to be sewed on,
no one need run upstairs for anything.
