A SUMMARY OF KANSAS EVENTS.
Are They Immune from Corruption: :

Are They Immune from Corruption:
The senate committee in fixing up
rules governing that body ignored
the recommendation made by Gov.
Stanley in his message to bar lobby
lists from the floor. Some of the sem
ators claim that the governor is a
little too Glossy" Besides, they say.
they are not afraid of being corrupt
ed. Lobbyists, they claim, are not
only useful but are necessary adj
juncts of legislative session, and no
one who is immune from corruption
can have any objection to their hang

Anent The Tribune's Fight,

One of the odd features about Car
bondale. Lackawanna county city of
13.500 inha bitants. is that there are
many streets in the outlying sections
which have no names. and. where the
houses are not numbered. 1t seems
unaccountablc. and all the more so
since the default has greatly inter
fered with tho work of pcrfecting the
postal facilities of the place. More
letter carriers are wanted and needed
but the authorities at Washington do
not think they would be justified in
placing more carriers in that field un-
der the circumstances. Whenever the
postal inspector has visited Carbon
dale he has invariably reported mega
lively the request for more carriers
solely for the reason that there were
So many unnamed streets and the
numbering of residences was So faulty
The trouble is one that could he easily
lomedied by councils.-Philadelp
