THE KANSAS CITY WAY

The great and lasting benefit con-
ferred upon community by an honest.
efficient non-partisan board of education
is well illustrated in the case of Kansas
City, which was referred to by this paper
few days ago. Further information
concerning the practice there lis at hand
and is herewith submitted.
Three members of the Kansas CITY
board of education are Republicans and
three are Democrats. They serve with
out pay. Mr.. r. L. Yeager, the presi-
dent, has been a member of the board
since 1S79-nineteen years. Mr.. ]. c.
James has served since 1884-fourteer
years. Vice-President j. V. c. Karnes
began his service in 1869, but retired fol-
period of several years, so that he has
been member only twenty years. Mr.
]. L. Norman was elected in 1887. and ha s
served continuously. Mr.. w. E. Ben.
son was business agent from 1880 to 1891
and has since been secretary of the
board. e. F. Swinney has been treas.
drer for four years, while J. S. Harrison
is the new member, having been chosen
in 1886 j. M. Greenwood has been super
intendent of schools since 1874.
1t stands to reason that the veterans
of the school board have given Kansas
City faithful, efficient service; that there
have been no scandals; that the taint OF
corruption has not crept into the sys-
tenn. Kansas City is no better and nc
worse than any other city of the same
size. 1t is very clear that the man.

Good Place to Hold

1t is pretty nearly ceratin that the next
Democratic state convention will be held
in the city Of Los Angeles. Sacramento is
in the field with a strong committee, but
we do not believe that Los Angeles can be
beaten. 1t would place fairly central for
the congressional district. The south
not having gubernatorial candidate Is
one strong reason why there is a disposi-
ton to take the convention there.-Fresno

completely answering the objections of

putting the kibosh upon the latest New

Our dispatches this morning report
the gathering OF $4,000 in a single day ir
new discovery on the American side
of the line in Alaska. 1t is neither I'M
possible nor improbable. Larger yields
are credited to American silver mines,
operated with primitive appliances; yet
to many unfamiliar with the history of
mining the report will seem incredible.
In 1879 the famous Robert E. Lee mine
at Leadville produced $4,000 in one
day with only an old-fashioned wind
lass to lift the ore to the surface So
rich was this deposit, an argentiferous
sand, that $50, 900 worth Of it was carted

A HOME ENDORSEMENT

The Los Angeles chamber of COM
merce, after carefully considering the
Loud postal bill, has given to it strong
Endorsement and requested the Califor-
MIA delegation to aid in it's passage. The
Herald has taken strong grounds in favor
Of this measure. and is gratified that its
views are approved by the commercial
element at home. 1t is a purely business
question, and it was to be expected that
the chamber would take business-like
view of it. Any prudent merchant, dis
covering that a single branch of his
business yielded but per cent of the
total revenues from its conduct, and alb
sorbed IS per cent of the gross receipts,
would speedily set about the correction
of the leak. He would try to discover
means for increasing the returns from
it or of diminishing it's cost. And that is
what the Loud bill undertakes to do in
the matter of the government postal
system. 1t recognizes the abuses which
result in an annual deficit of many mill
lions in the receipts of the postoffice de-
partment, and proposes to correct them
with the least possible sacrifices of bene-
fits enjoyed by the general public.
Universal penny postage will be
hastened by the adoption of the Loud bill
and the approximation of postal reve-
nues and expenses. Such departure
cannot be thought of while the annual
deficit reaches into the millions.

BUFFALO BILL.
His Famous Wild West Exhibition Coming
Soon-cheap Excursion Rates on all
Railroads.

Lieutenant General John M. Scho-
field, retired, and recalled from pri-
vate life to act as military advisor to
President Mckinley during the war
with Spain, said recently "Whether
this war be of brief or prolonged dura-
ton 1t has done one thing of incalcul-
able value to the country, and that is,
1t has aroused the patriotism of the
people which lies too long dormant in
times of peace. In fact, almost the
only institution to excite the military
spirit in the youth of the land has
been a show-Buffalo Bills Wild
West-and in that respect Col. Codys
exhibition is a real institution, rather
than a show"
Was ever another such compliment
paid to any sort of an amusement ex-
hibition When its character is un-
derstood, Gen. Schofeld's compliment
is justified. 1t is distinctively an in.
ternational military tournament of
real soldiers from the cavalry and
artillery of England, Germany, Russia,
Cuba and the United States. Over
100 Indian chiefs and warriors from
the six great tribes show the savage
soldier Mexican Vaqueros, Guaches
of Argentine; Arabs and Moors,
Asia and Africa have also seen service
in the Armies of their respective
countries. The band OF Cuban
veterans, wounded and manned until
their fighting days are ended, still can
sit in the saddle and show the stamp
ofmen who have fought so valiantly
for free Cuba. A superb military
spectacle, Clusters Last Battle pro-
duced with splendid special scenery,
and hundreds of soldiers and savages
IN mimic combat as realistic as the
real, is still another thing that will ex-
cite in everyone the desire to see the
greatest of all exhibitions when it ap-
pears at Danville June 20. Excur-
sion rates will be made on all lines of
travel to the Wild West on that day.
