Kansas is Denied Authority to

Department.
TO MIR. BUSH.
Mind of AtchisOm Minister Set

Young Lady StenOgraphers
Plan a Pleasant Surprise.

There will not be a. regiment of color
ed troops from Kansas.
The colOred people have been urging
Governor Leedy to allow them to raise
an entire regiment ever since they were
given the two battalions. He could not
make them any definite reply because
that is a matter that is entirely in con-
troll of the government but he agreed to
do all he could to accomplish the de-
sired result
His request that Kansas be allowed to
furnish cOlOred regiment, has, how
ever, met with a polite refusal and the
colOred people must be satisfied with
two battalions. Following is the text
of Governor Leedy's telegram and the
reply:
Topeka, July II, 1898.
Hon. r. A Alger, Secretary of War,
Washington, D. c.
The recruiting of the two battaliOns
of Kansas troops is now completed
They will be mustered into the service
of the United tSates this week. In
view of the fact that these two bat
talions are made up of cOlOred men, I
believe that it would be for the good
of the service and a just recognition OF
their rights to give them full regi-
ment. therefore ask for authority to
recruit another battalion.

given you to receive another battalion.

Where Ignorance is Bis.
Secretary of State Bush has received
the following letter from Atchison:

Secretary of State Bush has received
the following letter from Atchison:
AtchISOn, Kan, July II, 1898.
From real auth 1rity have been told
that you have granted certificates to
sell liquor when signed by four or five
names of citizens. Now my dear sir
mayor who is not only perfectly will
ing to close all drinking places on the
Sabbath but does do so. In the future
ii you are urged to grant such certifi-
Gates will you please submit them first
to our council or at least to the mayor.
When these men sell six full days dur
ing the week can they not afford to let
up on the Sabbath? Very kindly
J. LANDON COUNTERMINE.
Secretary of State Bush replied to the
minister and quoted the law governing
the issuance of charters. He said that
nothing of the kind spoken of in the
letter had ever been issued from the
office and that a charter is no prOtec-
ton when the people who took out the
charter are violating law. Continuing
he said:
If five or more citizens of Atchison
form a corporation it must be for legiti-
mate purposes or their charter will not
be filed in this office; If after securing
their charter they engage in liquor sell
ing or any other jllegitimate business
their charter is no more protection to
them than a teachers certificate would
be to him should he engage in the same
business.
Your mayor, city attorney and coun-
ty attorney understand these facts
fully and if any joint or saloon is by
your officers allowed to run on the plea
that charter or any other paper issued
by any department of this state, pro-
tect such violations of the law, then
said officers are knowingly attempting
to deceive you and the people.

you may not again be deceived by such

to the water filter. He drew a cup of

sip and then exclaimed, ''sOme one has

To the Editor: While YOU are discussing

In some respects for criticism: bat the one

some constitutional prohibition, which is
not believed.
Taxes are heavy all over the state and
In some counties almost buTdensome, and
some mode Of relief would be gladly wei
coined by the people
County warrants have gone down as low
as Ga cents on the dollar, and therefore n
great loss IS sustained. The suggestion
recommended is that county warrants be
received in payment for that portion of
taxes called county faxes This can easily
be done. and warrants viii at once advance
10 a par value or near X. While some Df
the counties have large amounts in the
moueycd cities OF the East drawing inter
est at high rate these same warrants
might just as wei! have been kept at home
anu mostly redeemed ard large sum Of
money saved 70 the people of the county.
The last legislature I'D n good thing FOR
the people under such burdens of taxes
when II RENTED both interest and penalty
on taxes paid lay fixed time, ana such
amounts were collected on delinquent taxes
