YOUR SPRING BLANKETS.
What the Wooden Mill at Topeka
Might Do.

Mr.. Charles NJ. Ross, assistant secre-
tary of state, has a suggestion which he
thinks may be of benefit of the Topeka
Wooden Mill company and the posses
sOrs of blankets in Topeka as we'll Mr..
Ross was formerly connected with a
wooden mill company at Blue Rapids.
Kan, and knows whereof he speaks
This is what he says:
In the spring everybody is supposed
to give their blankets a thorough wash
ing before packing them away for the
summer, and if after washing the
blankets are run over the gigs at the
mill they will come back looking exact
ly the same as new blankets. The trip
over the gigs" raises the nap and
gives the goods q new appearance. This
method is carried out in many of the
cities where wooden mills are located
and if the Topeka company will do the
work at reasonable figure it can
probably make several hundred dollars
in this way this spring.

MR.. GLEED SENT A LETTER.
He Was in Denver and Gould Not At
tend the Temperance Convention.

J. W. Gleed was in Denver and could
not attend the state temperance union
convention. He sent a letter which
was read at the meeting Wednesday
night. Mr.. Gleed said:
Law cannot do all, but law can do
much. The contest must go on under
any form of law, but the best form Of
law is that form of law which is most
( uncompromisingly hostile. WITH that
form of law, though the soldier may
sometimes sleep. the weapon is always
at hand.
We. members of,the union, believe in
ly enforced throughout the state now,
but it has been, and it may be again.
Even now we believe there is no soberer
state in the union than the state OF
Kansas, and this condition is mainly
due to the prohibitory law.
In the hands of officials who honest
y desire to do their whole duty as
prescribed by the statutes and their
oaths of Office. the prOhibitOry law can
be fully and fairly enforced. We know
this because it has been done. In tSse
hands of officials whose sole desire is
the notification and repeal of the law,
it will, of course, not be efficiently en-
forced The first aim of the people
who desire to protect individuals and
society and the body polite from the
raVages of alcoholism, from the mex
pressible evils Of the liquor traffic. must
be to retire cowardly, recreant and rebel
officials. enemies of the law and of the
constitution, and to put in their places
men of courage and loyalty
We are unalterably opposed to the
resubmissiOn of the prohibitOry amend
ment- 1t would settle nothing The
war would go on just the same Pend
ing the election we should have a reign
of laWlessness and terror. The state
would be colonized with the border ruff
fans of the whisky cause. Whisky cor
ruption funds would flood the state
Bribery and violence would dominate
the polls. Nothing would be gained in
the end. Brewers, distillers, saloon
keepers and jolntists, the parasites
and pirates of all grades and condi-
lions, are a unit for resubmission. Let
sober, Industrious, aW-abiding citizens
hold the vantage they have gained. The
people can express their wish by send
ing only friends of the constitution as
it stands to represent them in the leg
iSIature''

NICE LITTLE TOMMY.
So Young and so Bad, There Seems
Little Hope for Him.

80 Dung and so Bad, There Seems
Little Hope for Him
Little Tommy Lewis, aged Il years. was
arrested in Topeka last Fall Festival week
on the charge of picking the pocket of
Mrs. James Brown of Oakland Tommy
shed great big tears when arrested, pro-
tested that he was not guilty, and officers
and others were moved with his GRIEF.
His mother came up from Kansas City
and pleaded for her little son. He was
released and he shed more tears of joy
of equal size at gaining his liberty. The
case was dismissed, through the compass
sion of Mrs. Brown and the officers But
Tommy is in trouble again. The follow
ing item in Kansas City paper tells
of his latest escapade:
Two detectives watched a small boy
circulating about in the crowd at the I'm
cry, Bird. Thayer Dry Goods companys
store yesterday afternoon. They saw him
steal a purse from a woman, they claim,
and arrested him. At central police sta
ton the pocketbook. containing 1924, was
found in the boys pocket. He gave the
name of Tommy Lewis, and said he lived
on the East side. The police are now
looking for the woman who owns the
purse. They want her to prosecute the
boy, who was held for Investigation.

WE FEEL FLATTERED.
Another Downeaster Discovers That
We Are Gas Good as Easterneas-"

The people of the east have so little
faith in Kansas that nothing short of
personal investigation causes them to
accept the statements that the state is
prosperous and that the people are
paying their debts. The New York Sun
and Harper's Weekly doubted the stor-
les of great crops and enormous debt
paying and sent Franklin Mathews to
Kansas to investigate. He paid the
state many compliments.
The Boston Journal has Joined in the
investigation and the financial editor
of the paper, Charles P. Bond, is in the
city securing statistical information
concerning crops and the resources of
the state with which he proposes to
show that prosperity is really abroad
in this state. Mr.. Bond said:
While many people accept the state
ments indicating an era of debt paying
and the restoration of confidence in
Kansas, there are large numbers of
them who are inclined to be skeptical
and We propose to ascertain the true
conditions. Since coming to Kansas, I
realize that this is a great state; that
it is inhabited by people as good as can
be found in the United States, and that
they are energetic. progressive and
abreast of the times in politics, bust
ness and society"
OF course Mr.. Bond does not mean to
be offensive in his remarks.
It might be added here that We don't
consider ourselves las good as the
people in Massachusetts and other
eastern states where the per cent of il
Hteracy is higher than it is in Kansas,
and where the per cent of general ig-
norance about everything can't be
reckoned. We consider ourselves bet
ter. We are getting somewhat tired of
being patted on the back and patroniz-
ed by the people who don't know any
thing about the United States and new
er did. They come out here with an
eye glass and a supercilIious air and re-
mark with a sniff: Why, you people
do know ? and make and you can
spell cat, can't you? How astound-
ing." New England and New York
where the population is composed most
ly of foreigners fresh from the peat
boys and manure piles of Europe, is
taking great airs over the old and orig
inal American families who now COM
pose the greater part of the Kansas
population.

THEIR FIRST DEFEAT

EN- BY THE GOLDEN SCHOOL

University Boys Clearly Outclassed
ar1 Lacking in Weight-The Home
Team Did Not Make a Point, the
Score Standing - 20 0 in Favor Of
Golden.

The weather IN Laramie today was
anything but favorable for the football
game between the University OF Wyo-
ming eleven and the Golden School of
Mines team. Early in the morning the
snow commenced to fall and continued
to come down all morning and by after
noon the streets were n mass of mud.
The temperature was not unfavorable,
however. and a good-sized crowd as
sembled at the university grounds to
witness the game. Most Of the stores
were closed, and the county offices were
deserted. so that nearly everybody had
a chance to attend.
The Golden team arrived on the mid
night train last night and their size
struck terror to the hearts of the uni
versity boys. One young man was
heard to remark that they averaged
six feet six in height and $50 pounds
in weight.
AS a matter of fact they largely out
weighed the Laramie boys and their
playing showed that they thoroughly
understood the game. The university
boys put up an excellent game. but
