American patriotism which always
comes with tlealthful employment
No city in the country but has its
army of drones. without visible means
of support, whose haunts reex with vice.
Living by doubtful means their exist
ence is but a round of depravity which
often ends in a climax of crime. Work
is a cure for this nuisance-vo voluntary
labor if possible. compulsory labor if
necessary.
Another feature that legislatures
might note which would receive
friendly reception is: That the teach
ings Of anarchy by speech, writing or
assembly, should be prohibited under
severe penalty, while more pains should
be taken to inculcate respect for life
law and property
Anarchy should be defined as a crime
and so treated. It seems sad in this
free country that such rigor must be
exercised,s but the incoming heterogen-
eous mass Of foreigners. many of them
with ideas Of undying hatred against
rulers in the lands they have left be-
hind-possibly in some instances justi-
fiable-seems to make such a course
imperative. There is apparently no
other alternative.

HA1L rRE NEW SOUTH.

In a recent interview prominent
citizen of Little Rock, Ark, says that
Arkansas is poisoning like the rose
From what can be CLEANED it is evil
dent that that state has more money
in circulation now than has been the
case for years. Capital from other Sec
tons. chiefly the north, has poured in,
and the prospect is that before long
the country viii be dotted with lumber
mills.
It is a matter of qualification that
Arkansas is to experience an indus
trial awakening. Tt is not for that
commonwealth alone, but because the
south generally is experiencing a COM
merical regeneration. Some months
ago it was announced that a number
of the factories for the manufa cture of
cotton fabrics had moved to that To-
cality in which the raw material j. pro-
duced. Now that the pine industry Is
shifting from the north to the south
that section has advanced another
notch materially. Prospects are that
lumber will advance in price greatly
before long, and of course this will
mean much to the localities supporting
the mills.
In addition, the crop prospects in
Louisiana. Texas and other common
wealths of that section are excellent
The yield of rice. sugar cane and corn
viii be heavy. The soil of Dixie is be-
coming noted for its fertility, and the
seasons are favorable to grain and
stock raising. In many parts Of the
country it is possible to raise two crops
of feed, and on the other hand the win
ter season is so short that the breeder
and feeder is not required to make ex-
tensive provisions for hay and grain
Fruit thrives in the south, and that is
another point in its favor.
Kansas and the middle west, injured
by the drouth Of the past summer, can
rejoice that although the yield here is
not up to the ordinary, the harvest in
the southland is to be a bounteous one,
and that that section is getting ia ape
for period of material advancement
never before realized

The defendant set up the defense that
his wife was a morphine fiend, for
which reason ne had deserted her and
gone west to Kansas. and had secured
a divorce from her in the courts Of that
state. The Pennsylvania judge was Of
the opinion that the morphine habit
was a disease, and afforded the husband

Unpleasant though the admission may

ers say, "Oh, no, there's nothing wrong
with the credit Of Topeka But we can
invest our money to better advantage
elsewhere
There is some satisfaction in knowing
that it is not because of suspicion of
Topeka's credit that the Santa Fe bonds
have not been purchased. This is shown
by the ease with which the city has sold
over $3.50, 600 worth OF general improve
ment per cent bonds since the time
the Santa Fe bonds We're issued.
The city has borrowed about $4,000
from the banks of Topeka. and has put
up the Santa Fe bonds as collateral.
This is merely a temporary loan, and it
draws 6 per cent interest 1T Is to the
advantage Of the banks OF Topeka that
the Santa Fe shop bonds be not sold
As long as the city fails to find mar

This fact alone is enough to consti-
tute ground OF suspicion that the large

TIE WORK CURE

In view of the recent assassination OF
President Mckinley by a vicious and
unemployed person the thought comes
up "how best to prevent crimes Of such
a nature"
Many remedies have been suggested
but none seems better calculated to dis
courage the practice than a rigid en-
forcement of the vagrant law which is
in operation in most cities of the coun-
try and on many state statutes.
Put the vagrant to work or make him
keep going, no matter what his color or
nationality Idleness and vagrancy are
fruitful breeders Of crime and danger
to our high officials grows in proportion
with their prevalence. Loafers can be
suppressed and should be- IN these
piping times Of prosperity there is no
excuse for the habitually idle man. The

plish beneficial results and do much

birth to mob creating frenzy.

a greater degree than any one other.

Let the legislatures Of states through
