The Kansas State Agricultural Col
lege is now known throughout the
country as "Populist college" The
Leavenworth Times says that NO
amount of apology or explanation
from the state or college administra.
ton can alter the fact that a power.
full and able staff was removed from
that college and in their places were
put number Of notorious cranks,
charlatans, socialists and Populists.
Up to that time the college at Man
haitian had been conducted on the
highest plane Of intellectual and
scientific and practical education,
without trace Of partisan influence.
But.the Populists made it forcing
house of Populist propaganda. The
Populists have turned every institu-
ton into some sort Of a crank ma
chine, and they must be rooted cut.

A long line of women waited anxiously tt

The long thin line came bustling up;
In 1t was spinster, maid and miss,
Each eager mouth held like cup,
To get Hobson souvnir kiss.
The hero of Ell Moro fame
Grew pale, and turned to them his back
"I'll co." said he, "for I'm not game
And sink another Merrimac."

The Populist party which made
great pretensions OF what it was do

When the Populists abandoned prin-

to get offices they began to 60 down
hill and now they are tobogganing.

An exceedingly ilattering portion
of the record Of tae new principal Of

that he was turned out of the State

said board had no use for it was gen.

The new factory of Messrs. Chapman
& Mclean will probably be finished the
latter part of October or early in No.
vember. Some idea of the enterprise
can be formed when it is stated that the
main factory is 200 feet in length by 40
feet in width, and two stories high, with
two additions each 70 by so feet. Both
members of the firm have been con-
nected for years with the Butler, recent
~ organized as the American Hard Rub
Der Co., who take considerable interest
in the effort of the employees who have
served SO long and faithfully. Mr..
Chapman comes of a New England
family who have long been actively en-
gagged in manufacturing Mr. Mclean
was engaged with wholesale concern
before he became identified with the
Butler Hard Rubber Co. some fifteen
years ago. The firm will be extensive
manufacturers of soft rubber goods, sue.
ceeding in the manufacture of this class

The new concern has already booked
orders from their agencies in London,
Paris, Ontario, San Francisco, st. Louis,
Chicago, New Orleans, Baltimore and
elsewhere. The New York Office will be
at 3S4 Broadway. About one hundred
hands will be employed at the outset and

was abandoned.

Miss Brice Won the Foote Cup Contest.
The showers on Wednesday afternoon
failed to dampen in any degree the en-
Shusiasm of the golfers at the Morris
County Club. Fourteen of the best
players among the women participated
in the Foote cup contest and it was won
after an exciting finish by Miss Marie g.
Brice.
Miss Brice recently came into the club
from the Morristown Field Club, of
which organization she was champion.
Her game on Wednesday was the best
she has played on the Morris county
links, and it is probable that her large
handicap of 70 will be reduced before the
next match. The Foote cup is the gift
of Robert d. Foote of this city.
