While the sentimental writers were fos-

the preservation OF the Finnish tongue

give way to the former in the courts,

position was met with from the bureau

publications and exercised rigid CEN

latter policy became so drastic that all
publications in Finnish were prohib-

Four weeks from next Monday the
biggest street exposition ever held in the
west will open. It will be the Topeka
street fair. Topeka never does anything
by halves, which will be again proven
by this event.
The idea of holding an exposition in
the spring is a new one in this part of
the country, and it remains for Topeka
to demonstrate the value of it. 1t has
always been the custom heretofore to
hold all kinds of festivals and carnival
events in the fall, and this experiment
may be turning point in the history of
civic festivities.
A spring street fair has Just closed at
Riverside, Cal, and it has been exceed
ingly successful It was conducted,
however, on the old plan of each man
building booth in front of his store,
and every man making displays on his
own account.
The committees which have the To-
pexa street fair in charge are getting
the details arranged as rapidly as pos
sible. They are daily in receipt of COM
municationS from manufacturers ask
ing about space for exhibits.
One of the most novel exhibits will
be a number of miniature wagons built
like delivery wagons. The firm which
makes them will clean the streets with

for the privilege of exhibiting the
wagons. The wagons which will be put
