FOR MARRIAGE LICENSES
Old COMMISSIONS ALL BElN,
WITHDRAWN.
Agents to Grant Licenses Now Get
Commissions from Treasurer Wright
old Commissions Revoked.

Treasurer Wright has issued "By
Authority notice 60 holders OF COM
missions as agents 10 grant marriage
licenses 20 the effect that all such
licenses issued before November a.,
1900, viii become null and void after
November l5, 1901 Those who want
licenses are TO apply 10 the department
Of Public instruction.
The announcement is the result OF the
change In laws by reason of the appii-
cation Of the Organic Act. This law
provided that the duties of the Minister
Of the Interior of the Republic of Ha-
wall, as far as licenses We're concerned,
should be turned over to the Treasurer
Of the Territory Of Hawaii. Among
these duties is that of issuing commits
sions TO grant marriage licenses.
The old law provided that the Min
lister of the Interior should appoint a
suitable number of agents to grant mar
riage licenses. The Organic Act, doing
away with the Office of minister of the
interior, provided that this part of that
,.4,iaIs duties should devolVe upon the
Treasurer Of the Territory of Hawai-.
Under the old law the commits sions
were TO be issued on approval Cf the
Board Of Education. and this part If
the law still stands The applicants
are therefore now referred 90 the Board
of Education.
Since the transfer Of government
there have been about 90 Applications 80
grant licenses under the new system
but only a few of them have been act
ed upon so far. The transfer Of this
business from the Interior or Public
Works department to the TreasuTers
office is now to be completed, and aite e
the 18th Of next month, all the old
licenses issued by the Minister of the
Interior of Hawaii, will be void. They
have been used up to this time. In the
Organic Act the section of the Hawaii
ian code providing for the Issuance Of
such commissions was expressly re-
tanned, sections on both sides Of it be-
ing repealed.

IT HAPPENED IN A DRUG STORE.


zone day last winter a lady came to
my drug store and asked for brand
of cough medicine that 1 did not have
in stock" says Mr.. c. r. Grandin, the
popular druggist of Ontario, n. Y. "She
was disappointed and wanted to know
what cough preparation could recon-
mend. / said to her that could freely
recommend Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy and that she could take a bottle
of the remedy and after giving it fair
trial If she did not find it worth the
money to bring back the bottle and
would refund the price paid. In the
course of a day or two the lady came
back in company with a friend in need
of a cough medicine and advised her to
buy a bottle of Chamberlains Cough
Remedy. / consider that a very good
recommendation for the remedy" The
remedy owes its great popularity and
extensive sale I'm a large measure to
the personal recommendation Of peO-
pie who have been cured by its use.

The success of the Webb City gang of
foot race swindlers in finding suckers
with money to throw away adds anoth-
er chapter to the record of human fraiI-
ties. It is almost past comprehension
that strong and otherwise sensible men
would squander thousands of dollars on
such well worn and gauzy scheme as
the fake foot race. Still it is figured
that these swindlers have secured in the
past few months something like S150,000
by means of their scheme

sums from $1,000 down to $4,000 These

THAT PROPOSED LOG Hou Sc

The scheme to build a log house at
the St Louis Worlds fair as the Kan
sas building has been sprung by some
yet unframed humorist- Kansas might
as well, or a little better, erect a state
building out of adobe or marble as to
build one of logs. One would be as APP
propriate as the other
If Kansas has a log house as the typi-
cal structure of the state then the in

elephant tusks, lions pelts, gutta
percha, cocoanuts and sharks teeth.
Such collection would be in keeping
with the humor of the scheme. A spe-
cial attraction for the second floor
might be Mrs Nation at work
A house characteristic of the prairies
would be sod house but it is not nee
essary to perpetrate such unsightly
affair on the public. Kansas people are
civilized. They live in houses, not in
tree tops as an Englishman once sup
posed, and Kansas should be represent
ed by building of slightly architecture.

MORE PAY FOR POLICEMEN.

One of the ludicrous things of Mayor
Hughes administration is the opulert
way in which the cityaaffairs are being
executed, while the city's bank account
is usually represented by an overdraft
which draws per cent.
There has been nothing that looked
like real retrenchment since the mayor
and his council took up the reins. The
board of health has been allowed to
have its own sweet will in the matter
of spending the city's money, there
have been additions to the regular force
of city employees, thousands of dollars
have been pledged for the pay of attor-
neys employed to assist the city attor-
ney. The mayor secured a liberal in
crease in pay, and the councilmen
shared in the division of spoils. Many
other city officials felt the boosting
hand of the city council underneath
their pay-checks.
In view of these facts. the policemen
of the city will come before the council
Monday night, and before the commit
tee on ways and means tonight, with a
very good basis for their demand for an
increase in pay from $50 to $65 a month.
They will present arguments to the city
council which it will find it hard to
ignore. you have raised your own pay,
you nave raised the pay OF the electric
light plant employees, you are paying
the firemen more than you pay US, and
we claim to be entitled to $65 month.
We have to buy certain kind of clothes
we furnish our own firearms, we work
nights half the time. and are on duty
seven days a week. We face as great
danger the firemen do, and we face
it constantly" This is the sort Of argu-
ment which will be advanced by the
police officers. What reply can the city
make to such demands? There is none,
except that the city finances are low,
and they have been low ever since the
new admins ration came into office.
After the pay of policemen is raised,
the sanitary policemen will be entitled
to a raise, also the street force and the
engineering corps. Apparently, the heri-
tage which the Hughes administration
is preparing to leave to its successor
is an inflated pay roll and an exhausted
treasury. The ball has been started at
the top of the heap. Let it roll to the
bottom, and help out the men who need
more pay, as well as the high officials
in the citV government

MAY RESULT IN GOOD.

While the decision in the stock yards
case seems to have been adverse to the
farming interests of Kansas, it may re-
suit greatly to their benefit. According
to the reports from Washington the
supreme court says that a legislature
may, within reasonable limitations, reg
ulate stock yards charges in general,
though it may not attempt to regulate
any particular specified company.
1t seems peculiar that a body of leg
islators cannot see the difference be-
tween general and specific legislation.
In this instance an effort was made to
regulate the charges of the Kansas City
stock yards company, while all other
stock yards companies were allowed to
charge what ever price they pleased.
1t would have been just as logical for
the legislature to say that the Union
Pacific Railroad company shall charge
only two cents a mile for passenger
traffic, but all other roads can charge
as much as they please The cases
would be almost parallel.
But if the regulations are made to
apply to all public stock yards alike,
and are not confiscatory, according to
the reported decision of the supreme
court the law would be all right. If
this is true it is quite likely that anoth-
er stock yards law will be passed in
the not distant future The stock in
terests of Kansas are too vast not to be
recognized in this manner.
And if stock yards companies can be
regulated. why not other quasi-public
corporations? Why cannot the rates of
insurance companies, for instance, be
regulated as well as those of stock
yards? What would the United States
supreme court say to a proposition of
that L~ird9
