Notes and Comments About lola Peo-
pie and Things By the Gener-
Gus Kansas Press.
Anything May be Expected at lola.

WatOmie Graphite: Some men
drilling for gas at lola claim to have
passed through u vein OF coal four feet
thick at depth of 225 feet. One
would think that the presence of the
coal would have been developed in
some of the other wells drilled there
within the last eight or ten years.
But it is hard to tell. Everything
seems to he coming Iola's way now,
and it would be NJ matter for surprise
if the developed mines outrivaled the
Klondike for richness.
And They are all Good Boys.
Yates Center News: Bert Harris has
retired from the publication of the
lola Friend aud has taken position
with the lola DAILY REGISTER, One

wing.
It is Very Near II Now.
Garrett PLaindeaIer lola's second
zinc smelter began operations last
week with about 40 men on the pay
roll. The natural gas Is working IA
great transformation in our neigh bor-
ing town and il will soon be the hest
town on the Southern Kansas route.
They Would Better Move Here,
Chaaute sun: The lola REGISTER
kicks on tue proposition of Nicola
Tesla to run machinery by sun light,
at least until the gas in lola burns
out. In the meantime gasless towns
with plenty of sun light going to
waste, might get permission to utilize
some of it
The Register is Always Conservative.
Spring HR New Era: The gas well
drillers are adding some new attrac'
ton to lola every little while. The
latest Ia what is declared to be q
four foot vein of coal ut a distance of
225 feet under the ground. But the
REGISTER says ii will not turn its
Enthusiasm loose on the subject until
it has been declared coal by the au-
thorities at the state university.

bad coURIER,s acRIevANce..

The Pine Bluff Courier of Saturday last, in long article headed Want ed a Monopoly, attempts to create the impression that the Press-Eagle had entered a combination" with the publishers of other city papers to
 'shut out the Courier'-i. e., by re- fusing to do its press-work. Thisin- situation, besides being ungracious and gratuitous, on the part of the Courier writer, is entirely untrue The publisher of the ress-Eagle has never been consulted or conferred with by either the publisher of the Commercial or the GRAPHIC about anything pertaining to the Courier in fact, no word, written or oral, has ever passed between the publish CTS of this and the other city papers with reference to the Courier, as those gentlemen, we doubt not, will readily attest.
 When MT. Treadwell, editor of the Courier, handed the Press Eagle pub fisher long written communication reciting the troubles of that paper and asking for bid upon It's press work, he was told that 1t would be furnished that day; but the foreman of the Press Eagle being sick caused day or two's delay, and the figures -$S.0o per week, and not 5000. all labor, ink, supervision, light, etc, to be furnished by this ofIice-were sub mitted to Mr. Hummer of the Courier Company in ample time to havecaus- cd it no inconvenience in the publica- ton of its last two issues, had they been accepted. For reasons appar- ent to every printer, we could not well afford to print the Courier forms upon the same press that prints the Press Eagle forms, and 1t was ex- plained to MT. Plummer that the work would have to be done on our book press, necessitating 1000 i'm pressions to run off the 1000 edition of the Courier. This bid was not ac- cepted at the time, but our foreman was informed that under the circum- stances it was reasonable, and that he would be informed later as to it's acceptance.
 The above Is all the publisher of the Press-Eagle knows about the Couiier's grievance, real or faneied, agaist itscontemporaries. Weknow, however. that the Courief publishers have been accorded various conrte- | sies at the hands of the Press Eagle. such, for instance, as aibasis for ad- I vertising rates, and tll ly oan of ma terial without which paper can be IsyiHted-and 1t do msingular that &itcr the eheesf renting Of

 "As Bryan Democrat, have to confess that l have grown weary of Mir. Bryan. am coming to believe that he is not large enough to be the leader of the cause which is known by his name.

The persistency with which he elings to 16 to l as if that were not only the solitary tenet in the Democratic creed, but the axis of the revolving cosmos, betrays either Mir.

HypnOtisnl.

Hypnotism is an applied science and is but another name for mes merism. Mesmerism is 0 system popularized by Franz Anton Mes mer, Swiss physician, from 1733 to 1815 By Mesmer the science was called animal magnetism. He discovered that the stars exercised an influence over men, and readily identified this with magnetism and sought to effect cures by stroking his patients with magnets. He f- nally persuaded himself that he pos sessed some mysterious force by which cures could be effected and abandoned the magnet. Mesmer de- lighted himself in cratic conduct and surroundings and affected a strange and fantastic dress. The French government offered him 20, GOO francs for his secret, but he declined the offer. Subsequently one of his disciples showed that sleep might be induced by gentle manipu- lation alone, thus removing the sub iect from the sphere of mystery to where it might become the subject of scientific investigation. In l843, Dr. Baird, a surgeon of Manchester, England, investigated the subject and called 1t hypnotism, and within the last few years it has been scien- tifcally investigated by number of eminent scientists. A hypnotic state is usually induced by the pa tient gazing fixedly at some bright object, or by passes made by the op- orator. r. is laid down as a scien- tifc principle in the encyclopedias that in the hypnotic state the pa. tient can be reduced to such muscu lar rigidity as to admit of the body resting supported only by the heac and heels on two chairs. Insensi bility to pain is another condition that can be produced and is ire 1 quently practiced in the hospitals for the purpose of performing some operation. And in an hypnotic state perverted sensation can be ] created such as to cause the patient l to imagine that water is delicious wine or a nauseous medicine, at the will of the operator.
 Therefore, when Santanelli was causing persons (mostly young mer who have not reached maturity tc do all kinds of curious acts and i'm. agine all sorts of foolish things ir an hypnotic state, he was only lllcs- trating to Pine Bluff audience 3 number of know, ald well-cstab llished scientific principles.
 No, Saptanelh is no fake, hypno- tism is an applied science, and, as he publicly stated, can be learned in a few hours.

ACCORDING to Congressman Lacy, of Iowa, aman who does not vote the Republican ticket is entitled to no rights whatever in this country. He is opposed to the free homes bill because some of those who obtained free homes do not vote the Republi- can ticket. The following is an ex- cerpt from a speech he made in the House a few days ago.
 We gave free homes to the farm CTS in Guthrie county, Oklahoma, and how did they show their grati- tude to the Republican party? By cry last one of them voted against Dennis Flyan. Under the circum- stances 1 don't see why Republican should enthuse over the question of free homes for Western farmers.
 This shows that Congressman Lacy is very narrow and bigoted partisan.

The editor Of the Tribune is in
receipt os letter from Hon. w.
A. Cook, professor Of agriculture
in the State Agricultural college ut
TT. Collins, requesting a sample
for analysis from each Of the
parties who received the seed
Directions how to gather and send
samples are as follows:
Select a row that is a fair aver
age Of the piece. Begin at one
end of row and dig each tenth
beet, until four beets have been
dug. 1t makes no difference
whether the beet is big OF little,
good or poor. take the tenth beet.
Cut off the tops at the base of the
leaves, wash the dirt of the beets,
wipe them dry and then get very
carefully the total weight of these
four bects. If possible weigh
them on scales that will get the
weight in pounds and ounces and
he accurate within an ounce.

The receipt of the sample will be
acknowledged at once and the test
of the beets sent rs soon as they
are analysed. Parties are request
ed not to dig the balance of the
bcets until they receive the anaIy-
sis of the first sample, since it may
be that the analysis will show that
the bects are not ripe and that
another later sample is desired.
This paper will print the re-
turns, giving name of the party
and analysis of his sample, as soon
as they are received. We hope
each aud every party who received
beet seed in the spring will
promptly send in their samples.
1t may be the returns will prove
so satisfactory sugar beet factory
will result on the divide.
