The Hall Llthographlng company
Of Topeka has received the authority
from the government to imprint rev.
enue stamps on checks. The printing
plant will be established in few
days, and thousands Of the revenue
stamps will be- priGted right in To-
peka aud not sent away to be done
by some other town. The govern
ment designates certain places where
stamps shall be printed, Then two
men are appointed for each plant.
One is an inspector who shall be paid
a salary OF 81, 900 q year. The other
is counter, with salary OF $500 q
year, A small press located in the
basement OF the Hall building will be
used to imprint the stamps. The To-
peka firm has to pay the salary Of a
pressmsn and the salaries of the IN
spector and counter Each evening
after the work Is completed for the
day the inspector and counter will
take Official notice Of the number OF
checks imprinted, will record 1t and
then lock up the dies IN the safe.
From the best authority it IS thought
the revenue law will be 10 effect four
years. The establishment Of an i'm
printing plant is not a profitable ven
ture directly. 1t is simply piece OF
business enterprise which iD the long
run pays. In case the revenue stamp
law should be repealed before four
wears, the firms which print them will
be losers. The Hall llthogrsphing
company has to pay the government
two cents for every check on which
they imprint revenue stamp. For
this they receive 81 q thousand from
their customers. It therefore costs
banks and corporations, etc, $l2 a
thousand for checks, besides the cost

WASHINGTON y. FoRD, mathemat-
ical, statistical gentleman, has figured
it out (ln Hsrper'e) that the navy We

will cost us $5O,0O0,0OO a year, that
the army will cost US $4,000, 600 to
SlOO.OO00OO, and that probably the
government will not DO able to make
both ends meet with an annual revenue
less than $2OO,00O,000. But the trans.
fer to the free list OF articles import
ed from the ex Spanish Antilles, Ha-
waiia and the Philippines will wipe
out q good deal Of the present Gus
toms revenue-about $50,000,00O q
yerr on the item Of sugar alone. This
loss will have to be made good some-
how and somewhere. Mr., Ford's
forecast is that The collection Of du-
ties on imported merchandise will
cease to be the leading feature Of our
revenue system, and that tle great
bulk Of the governments income will
in future be derived from internal
taxation.

The Santa Fe railroad company
has gotten out a book advertising
Kansas. A letter by Governor John
W. Leedy, written expressly for the
book says: kansas has passed the
experimental stage. The eastern half
Of the state has long been known as
the garden spot of the Missouri val
ley. The river counties offer peculiar
advantages to horticulturists The
central west, or selni-ard portion,
where experiments we're carried on
for a long time and at great expense
IN the useless endeavor to demonstrate
the praChoability Of growing ordinary
crops il that country, has finally
found its true place in the agricultural
world. The introduction of alfalfa
and kaflir corn and similar crops,
demonstrates that these crops can be
grown with a degree OF certainty that
nss already established the agricul-
tural interests of that part OF the
state on firm basls. 1t has been
demonstrated that the returns from
labor expended in this portion Of the
state are as reasonably certain as any
other portion Of the country. The
western part Of the state, OF course,
has gone back to It's original use as a
grazing country, and there IS proba-
bly, no section of the United States

churches are the glory and pride Of
the state, aud should be large con-
alteration in the thoughts of people
desiring to change their place, OF resi-
dence and build anew a home for
themselves and their families. With
the records Of the past and the pros

conclusively their superiority over
some organizations OF state militia In
which the men are partly compelled
to serve by a sense Of shame, but
they do not show the enthusiasm OF
the volunteers" Inasmuch as the

not probable that any are serving
