STANLEY REFUSES TO ACT
Italian CONSUL General Turned Down
in his Attempt to Collect
Indemnity

There was some little excitement at
the time of the trouble over the report
that the Italian affair here might as
sumo international complications, but
peopleigenerally thought it was mere
talk The Italian Consul General
h oweverhas been quietly investigating
the case and attempted to collect in
demnity from the State. How success
fully can be seen from the following
special despatch to the REGISTER from
Topeka. There seems to be a chance
for lola to get good deal more free
advertising out of the affair than was
expected.
Topeka. June 20-Governor Stanley
today formally notified the Italian
consul General Roseadoski at Chicago
that the state will pay no indemnity to
the Italians mobbed by the cement
laborers at lola. He refers the consul
to the Federal authorities. 1t is

Wednesday at 7;45 at the residence of

The MasOnsl Move.

The Masons moved yesterday to their
newtemple on the ewestside ofthe square.
For the present they will occupy the
second story as a lodge room until
the third story is furnished. 1t is the
intention of the lodge to buy every
thing new and only the best and when
the time comes which will be soon,
members of the lodge will be sent to
Chicago to select the furnishings.
1t is impossible to describe the new
hall as IL deserves and it is well worth
the time OF anyone to go through it.
1t has been built to especially suit the
needs OF the masons and everything is
Of the most modern and complete ar
rangement. In addition to the fine
lodge room there is a banquet room,
parlor and library.
The masons are very proud of their
new hall and they have right to be
and there is not person in lola who
is not glad to see this evidence of
prosperity. Two years ago the local
lodge added more members to Ma
sonry than any other lodge in the
state. Last year they did not do quite
as will but the indications are that
this year they will again lead. 1t is
estimated that when the hall is fur
nished that the entire property will | o
worth $40, 900 to the lodge.

the Oxy-Hydrogen works in operation.
His right to do that is guaranteed by a
charter granted by the State, and de-
clared valid by the courts. The exercise
of these rights, the bestownl of these
benefits to the people who want work
and wages, has been prevented by the
servants of the community acting in de-
fence of something, or somebody whose
identity is concealed, and who does not
hesitate to attack the integrity of repu-
table men of business who give work and
wages to the people"
If we are not very much mistaken the
News has defended this attack upon the
community and commended this outrage
OF chartered rights. AT least it has not
dared to expose or condemn the wrong,
although there is good reason to believe
it is well informed both as to the parties
and the facts. Ii, however, we may be
mistaken in this, we suggest to the News
that the Senatorial contest, in which il
has been rabid partisan of the wrong
side, is part of n systematic, persistent
attack upon the integrity of reputable
business men who furnish work and
wages TO the people, and that it has been
made in defense of an outrage of every
tenet Of law, and every rule of decent
courtesy.
Does the News comprehend that its
bright editorial sauib is a confession?

Fact. Abou. the wosld'. Growth.

According to scientists the limit OF
the earth's capacity to support human
life will be reached when its population
is 5000, 1000, or four times as much
as it's present estimated number. As
the earth doubles her children every
140 years, it is easy to calculate that in
$50 years, or in the year 2iSo, there will
positively be no room for more, and,
unless by that time there are facilities
for emigrating to other planets, some
serious steps will have to be taken to
restrict the growth of our numbers. II
by any chance it should be possible to
surmount the difficulty of support, and
if the population continues to increase
at present rates, more difficult prob
lem still will have to be faced thou
sand years or so later, in the year 3160.
For by that which, happily,
none of us may see--the earth's brood
will have grown to such proportions
that every square yard of solid ground
will have its population of three per-
sons, each inhabitant of the earth be-
ing thus strictly limited to three square
feet of land for all purposes of support
and domicie. = Peoples Home Jour
