WHAT TEXAS WILL DO.
Governor Sayers Speaks of States Ac-
ton Towards Galveston,s Relief.

New York Oct. 17.-Governor Sayers,
of Texas, was asked last night why the
Texas state legislature had taken no re-
lief action when the latest available re-
ports show a financial ability Of up
ward of 100000 OO
1.-THE principal reason the governor
replied, lis because a session of the leg
islature has not be called. The legislature
has not been in session since the dis
aster. To have gotten the members to-
gether would have cost more than they
probably would have appropriated. How
ever, the legislature meets in two months
and it may be relied upon that Texas
will do the proper thing when the time
comes"
What about the SO. 313, 6S1 in cash and
the S7,540,3 in bonds and the $79 400 in
certificates Of public debt, said by the re-
port of September /, 1899, to be held In
the state treasury" was asked.
THE greater part of that" the COVER
nor replied, sis held in the state per-
manent school fund and college funds,
which is contrary to law to use for any
other purpose. Cash in the school fund
may be loaned out at interest and the
proceeds must be used for school pur
poses alone. There is no money in these
lief purposes without a violation of law,
punishable by Imprisonment. OF the
money in the state revenue account, 1
doubt if there will be so much as $4,000
remaining by the time the legislature
meets. You see we have to meet the run
ming expenses of the government from
moneys on hand until the new tax
current taxes does not begin until the
first of January, so whatever is in the
treasury now is all that there will be I'M
til that date"

MILLIONS IN BEEF.
Live Stock Slaughtered In Kan
sas $54,OOO,OOO Yearly.

The compilation of assessors returns
just completed by the Kansas board Of
agriculture. showing the values, at home
and ON the farm, of animals slaughtered
or sold for slaughter and the poultry
and eggs marketed in the year ending
March 1, evidences that Kansas not only
is well forward but continues to rapidly
advance in the rank of producing
states
The value returned for animals
slaughtered or sold for that purpose in
the year named is $54, 321, 1888, or IL per
cent greater than in 1889, and the largest
value in the history of the state. In
1896 the value was $50, 592, 057, since when
there has been a handsome increase each
year, aggregating a total gain of $17,-
729, 831, or 4S.5 per cent.
The value of poultry and eggs market
ed within the year was S. 060, 1882, a gain
over 1888 of 1913 per cent, and likewise
the largest value ever reported for the
state There has been an increase an
nually in the value of poultry and eggs
marketed since 1895, and the total gain
made during the five years is 52.65 per
cent, or $1,745,265, the largest increase
being in 1900.
The combined values of animals
slaughtered or sold for slaughter and of
poultry and eggs sold in the year is
SIS, 1882, 220, and for the five years 1886
1900 they aggregate $249 260, 6S3, making
an annual average Of $49, 1852, 1856.

MUST HAVE OPEN DOOR.
United States Will Oppose Partition
of China.

New York, Oct. 17.-No concealment is
made at the state department, says a
Washington special to the Journal of
Commerce, of the purpose of the United
States to insist upon the fulillment Of
the pledges given by the powers for the
maintenance of the ''open door, on Chi
nese soil, whether parts of the present
territory of China are annexed to other
Sovereignties or not. A determined
stand will be made by the United States
pire, in accordance with the purposes
set forth in the note of Secretary Hay
on July 3.
The United States has not thought it
necessary to make the maintenance of
the open door, a subject OF consulta-
ton with the powers preliminary to gen
era1 negotiations with China The
"open door, is sufficiently assured by
the pledges given last winter. provided
the integrity of China is maintained. If
any proposition should be made by any
of the powers which might seem to con-
flict with all in maintaining the open
door it would be resisted by the Aneri-
can representatives, and a thorough I'M
derstanding would be reached before
such a. proposition was considered.
In case Germany, Russia, France and
Japan seize large strips of territory it
will probably be thought best to ask d.
renewal of the pledges that the COM
all other nations shall stand upon a
footing of equality there with the com
merce of the governing power. There is
little doubt that Great Britain and
Japan would certainly support this
prOpOSitiOn

WANTS THE CUP BADLY.
Thomas Upton Tells What He Would
Sacrifice For the Honor.

New York, Oct. 17.-Thomas Upton is
quoted in a dispatch from London to the
Herald as saying of his second challenge
for the Americas cup:
my challenge is probably the shortest
ever sent to America. No conditions are
attached except a request as to the time
when the races shall be held
''I want no fairer course than the
Sandy Hook course.
81 would give every penny I have and
begin again at the bottom of the ladder
to lift the Americas cup
Sir Thomas took the defeat of the
Shamrock very much to heart; for he
was firmly convinced that she was a
better boat than the Columbia and that
she should win under ordinary circum-
stances. But he accepted the result like
a true sportsman and did not seek to
make any excuses.
When Shamrock II is fitted out for
her voyage to America Sir Thomas will
make use of the knowledge gained in
handling the first Shamrock. He will
entrust his new yacht to new shippers
If in their hands she fails to Tiff the
cup, Sir Thomas will concede that
Americans have no peers as yacht build
eTs.
Il take off my hat to the Herreshoffs, -
said he. '"They are wonderful men. I
would give all I have to build on this
side of the water a craft better than
they can produce. If money can build a
yacht superior to the Herreshoff boat
then I will bring the cup back to Eng
land"

ALLEN RECOGNIZED.
Governors Private Secretary Speaks
at Scene of Early Triumphs.

at Scene of Early Triumphs.
A well known citizen stood in front of
the opera house Saturday evening listen
ing to the band, says the Salina Repub-
Hcan-Journal. He suddenly turned and
asked a bystander who speaks to-
night?'' Henry J. Allen" replied the
bystander. well, as haven't anything
to do guess I'll go up and hear him"
He went upstairs and took a seat and
awaited the arrival of the speaker. When
the distinguished guest came onto the
stage and was cheered, the gentleman in
the seat began to eye the speaker closely
and remarked to a neighbor, TT seems
to me I've seen that fellow before Just
then the speaker made the remark that
this isn't my first address in the opera
house and the listener supposed he had
heard the fellow speak before some time
in his life, and became interested in
what his business was. After several in
quiries he learned that the fellow was
private secretary to Governor Stanley.
Further inquiry revealed the fact that
Allen was a former Salina young man,
and then the man who had thought he
recognized the speaker instantly remem-
bered Allen as a newspaper reporter on
the Salina Republican years ago, but
never thought then he would ever have
the opportunity Of listening to one of the
best political addresses he ever heard,
delivered by a young man who formerly
ran the local end Of a Salina daily news
paper. Great changes can come over
newspaper men in the course of time,
and every one who heard Allen Saturday
evening stated that he delivered the best
address delivered here this campaign.
