Meeting Of the State Democratic Editorial As
sociation--A Pleasant Session and
Good Time.

The annual meeting of the Demo-
cratic Editorial Association of Kan
sas was held in lola this week and
was most enjoyable occasion, both
to the guests and to their
entertainers. There was short
business session Wednesday morn
ing and in the afternoon the
visiting editors were put In carriages
with citizens as escorts were driven
to the various points of interest about
the city. The first place visited, of
course, was the Robert Lanyon's
Sons smelter, where they were cor
daily welcomed, in the absence of
the proprietors, by Mr.. f. ii. Ruble,
and were shown through the extern
sive works under the guidance of
Supt. Whiteside. All the processes
of ore making were shown, and the
visitors, none of whom had ever be-
fore seen zinc smelter, or seen
natural gas put to so extensive use,
were greatly Interested and delighted
with what they saw.
As all smelters are much alike and
as the time was limited, the visitors
were not shown the w. d j. Lanyon
works but were taken directly TO the
Brick Plant which was hardly less
interesting to them than the smelter
had been, as many of them there saw
for the first time brick made by
machinery and burned by natural
gas.
The Manufacturing Company plant
was the next one visited. And ever
some of our own citizens who were
accompanying the party were surpris
ed to see 80 many men at work In thii
plant and to ncte the quantity, varie
ty and character of the work being
turned out. The Company is jus
finishing an order of 100 washing ma
chimes for n. l.. Vezie, and have ais,
about completed large number o
cars for the Brick Company. In tn
foundry they are at work on the irol
fronts for the new store rooms ant
are doing a great deal Of very beauti
full work. The visitors were especial
ly interested in the use being mad
here of natural gas.
The drive was then continue,
about town, taking in the Miners
Well, which all of the guests ha,
heard of, and ending at the Oper
House at about six o'clock. The ed
tors had not failed to note the hund
reds of new houses and the othe
evidences of thrift and prosperit
which they saw all over the city, an
they were enthusiastic in thei
