Republic Steel Kumors
From the New York Herald, May ]

From the New York Herald May 8
 Rumors that have been current in Wall street for several days telling that the Re- public Iron and Steel company was about to be involved in important litigation as sumed definite shape yesterday, when if was stated that dscontented stockholders had prepared to resort to the courts in or der to prevent the sale of the company's & sheet mills to the new Sheet Steel com pany, and were threatening to sue for a dissolution of the company
 This story was promptly denied by Pres ident R. s. Warner, who, in a telegram to director in this city, said:
 There Is absolutely no truth in the re- port that suit of importance has been brought against our company. I cannot understand why such report was started. We are not involved in litigation of any nature. Our March earnings were better than those of February, and we have noth- ing discouraging to report from this end of the line"
 The stories, however. had the effect of breaking the Republic Steel shares badly, the preferred dropping points, to 52 and the common points, to 14A. Subsequent- ly the preferred rallied sharply, closing at 55h.

WORK OF NEGRO AUTHORS
The Colored Man is Making His Mark
 in the Literary Field of Today

Fannie Barrier Williams in the Chicago Times Herald.
 It will not be easy to convince the Ameri- can people that the negro has made even beginning as author and contributor to American literature. Everybody is willing to agree with Richard Henry Stoddard that the negro has furnished inspiration rather than found it." Thousands of American people read the poems and stories of Paul Laurence Dunbar Va hout the slightest con sciousness that the author is a negro. As it is not expected that colored people can so soon begin to write anything that can be classed in any sense as literature the negro personality among clever writers in the last century has been entirely ignored
 Within the last two years Daniel Murray of the congressional library has been deavoring to secure a complete list of pamphlets and books by negro authors This work has been carried on with great thoroughness under the direction of Her bert Putnam, librarian of congress The ef- fort thus made has revealed so much of excellence that has been written and for gotten that a complete bibliography is be- ing prepared for the Paris exposition as a part of the American exhibit.
 In MT. Murray's preliminary list of books and pamphlets by negro authors there are HOO titles and about 200 writers These beginnings have been found mostly in Phil adelphia, Boston, New York, Baltimore and Washington.
 The pamphlet literature is particule-,- in- teresting as showing to what extent colored men became thinkers and scholars in days days when it was a crime to teach negores to read and write. These people without a country and without favor not only become educated, but what they wrote contributed greatly to the political, religious and social questions of the day. Many of these earlier writers were educated in the West Indies Much of their writing exhibited excellence of the highest order.
 The chief characteristic of nearly all of this early writing by negro authors was seriousness. There was but little fiction poetry or humor How to destroy slavery and bring freedom and equality to the en- slaved was the burden of most of the first negro authors. With the conquest of slav- .1y negro authors lost their most inspiring theme Since that time a very few men and women have gained name and fame as contributors to American literature

important than it used to be, but
rather that it has risen to plane of
more importance to its locality. The
great dailies and their valuable, We
very cheap, weekly and twicea-week
editions, serve the people on nation
al and state politics, but they can't
serve them on local politics. Then
the field is widened for the local pa
per to which the public looks for
political information on home mat
things in which you are per-
sonally interested.
After all, politics constitute but a
small fraction in the sum of mans
happiness, prosperity and usefulness
and as the local paper is nearest to
him and to his interests of all he
reads, it should be more than a
mere partisan organ. Its columns
should be filled with matter that
brings it in touch with all the house
hold, most of whom care very little,
if any, about politics and parties.
Of course, every local paper should
affiliate with and support the local
party that comes the nearest to pro-
mitigating the political belief of the
editor; it should stand for some po-
litical organization and be what it
is it should be loyal to the principles
for which it stands and its general
course should be such that every
reader knows just where to find it;
and, in short, it should never be all
things to all men. But it should be
all this and yet have little to do with
politics in merely partisan sense,
or to the extent of filling two or
three columns week that could be
better used for local news natter

AS rule the country newspaper
has too much to do with politics.
This opinion is besed upon observa-
ton through twenty years experience
editing the Western Spirit. Time
was, long ago, when dailies and
weekly editions of large city papers
were read by the people, that the
country paper was expected to de-
vote four or five columns a week to
expounding party issues and prin-
ciples. But things are different to-
day. The great dailies nearly cover
the field politically, and, besides
them, there are magazines devoted
almost wholly to politics.
In fact the evolution of journalism
has reached point where the coun-
try weekly is practically eliminated
as a force in shaping party policy in
state and national issues, and the
people lookito it only as factor in
local matters. This does not mean
that the country newspaper is less

Kansas National Bank Sold.

from the Wichita Eagle, May 81
Yesterday afternoon the Kansas
National bank of this city, one of
the largest and best known institu-
tons in the entire west, changed
hands.
A combination which owns banks
all over Kansas, of which DR.. w. S.
Woods, of Kansas City, is the head,
purchased the bank and the Kansas
National is now part of one of the
strongest banking organizations in
the world.
The new members of the bank or
ganized at once with the following
officers:
President-C. Q. Chandler.
First Vice President-E. E. Mas
terman.
Second Vice PRESIDENT. w.
Bergman.
Cashier-Elsberry Martin.
Assistant Cashier-Chas. Testard.
Years ago DR.. Woods, of Kansas
City, lived at Rocheport, Missouri.
He went into the banking business
and is now a very rich man, and is
one of the great bankers of the ma
ton. He had number of nephews,
and as these grew up he took them
into the banking business with him.
The banks now run by nephews of
DR.. Woods are as follows:
Citizens State Bank, Medicine
Lodge.
Stock Growers, Ashland.
National Bank of Commerce, Gar
net.
State Bank, Humboldt.
State Bank, Meade.
First National Bank, Carlsbad,
New Mexico.
Kansas National Bank, Wichita.
c. Q. Chandler, the new president
of the Kansas National at Wichita,
is nephew of DR.. Woods, and has
been in charge of the bank at Medi-
cine Lodge. He is young man.
He was born in Rocheport, Mo-,
and in 1883 moved to Elk City,
and in 1889 he moved to Medicine
Lodge. During his residence in
that city he has been a frequent Wis
itor at Wichita and is known to
many people here. He is bust
ness man through and through, cap
able, thorough, shrewd and public
spirited. His connection with a
Wichita institution means a great
deal to this city, and he will at once
be recognized as a power in the
further upbuilding of the city and as
one of the leaders in movements fol
the advantages of Wichita. He will
be heartily welcomed here and will
readily find greater field for his
banking genius.
E. E. Masterman is at present
cashier of the Bank of Commerce al
Garnet, Kansas.
| J. w. Bergman, who is second
vice president of the Kansas Nation.
al is vice president of the Stock
Growers bank at Ashland, Kansas.
The condition and history of the
Kansas National bank is well known.
Its capital is SIoo, 900 and its de-
posts now in excess of half a million
dollars. 1t has weathered all the
panics of the past and has ripened
into a stable, sound concern.
