HEREDITY.

as communal heredity. The Kansas
prairies were settled in an abnormal
way. Blue lodges from the South and
Beecher Bibles and rifle combinations
from the North struggled with each
other as to whether Kansas should be
slave or free. Thus the territory began
it's existence in contention and tumult.
The political paroxysms from the begin
ming of civil government in Kansas
down to the present moment have COM
pletely verified the theory of communal
heredity No other state than Kansas
could give republican majority of
$4,000 in presidential election and
within eighteen months thereafter send
an ex-confederate soldier (the Hon. VIM.
A. Harris) to the national capital as
congressman at large. No other COM
monwealth in the American Union can
revolve as rapidly in political way,
probably because no other common
wealth has so many heads containing
wheels within it's borders.
Kansas first attracted attention by
starving, and sending James H. Lane
and S. O. Pomeroy as emissaries and
solicitors to every state and asking aims
in the way of wheat, beans, corn, etc..
for food and for seed. Many state legis-
latures made direct cash appropriations

Making six hundred or a thousand
speeches in given year or decade and,
in the same period, doing no visible
good, by either deed or design, for the

One useful deed, single beneticent

Edwin Arnold lin the Light of Asia,

And many thoughtful men now believe
that it is better to do gracious and
kindly acts, in accordance with the be-
nign teachings of love and charity for
their fellow men, than to ostentatiously
make mere profession of faith which
teaches and inspires such acts. And so,
when we have finished our brief parts,
when the curtain has been rung down,
when the music of life is silent and
darkness is dense about us, we wish the
living to say: "He was man Of good
deeds. He helped the worthy who
needed help. He professed, only in
acts, the religion of kindness and

CROP FAILURE AND ITS CAUSES.

Mr.. Chas. f. Lummis, of Los Angeles,
editor of the Gland of Sunshine" has
been east this summer; and observing
as he passed through Kansas large
muddy rivers on one hand and ruined
cornfields on the other, he jumped to
the conclusion that this corn was dying
for want of irrigation, and that the
Eastern" farmers were not workers,
but gamblers, and in intelligence far
below the inhabitants of the Nile valley,
not to mention those of southern Cali
fornia.
These were very rational deductions
to draw from car window, but they
rest on an error. At no time during the
summer of 1901 has there been def
ciency of moisture in the central agri-
cultural region of the United States.
There have been sufficient rains, and
they have been we'll distributed, and the
ground has at all times contained plenty
of water; nature merely wished to re-
mind us of the nice inter- r-adjustment of
all the parts of her system, and SO
caused baking wind to blow over the
cornfields on the very days when the
fertilizing pollen was falling, thus
causing fatal gap in the life-story of
the corn kernel. 1t is doubtful if either
Egypt or California, though they are
both remarkably intelligent communi-
ties, could have devised and put in
practice an adequate remedy in this
emergency.

PERMANENT
HOMES.

primary patriotism. The composite of
American homes is the American Re-
public. When the integral parts are
enlightened, refined and contented, the
concrete is solid, substantial and benef-
cent. A government with no perma-
nent homes is inconceivable. The no.
madic tribes of Indians whom we on the
west bank of the Missouri river have
succeeded, never established and en-
bellished permanent homes. One of the
most accentuated and emphasized dis
tinctions between savagery and civil
zation is found in the fact that the for
mer never has and the latter always has
established domiciles. Every man and
woman who cultivates love of home
in the household is doing kindergarten
patriotic work. Love for government
ultimately depends for it's strength upon
the power of the government to protect
the home, and no citizen or subject can
cherish a love for a country which af-
fords no protection to the homes of it's
citizens.

were vicious enough to subsequently de-
clare that much of the money thus
raised and some of the cereals and other
seeds thus secured We're used in sena-
torial election. In fact, Pomeroy was
reviled by the incredulously wicked peo-
pie of his day and generation as ''Old
Beans Pomeroy" and Starvation Seed
Pomeroy."
Besides shrieking and starving, Kan
sas appeared as the "bleeding" member
of the American Union, and everyone
may remember or read of the internal
broils, the fights, the rapine, the arson
and the vendettas Of early Kansas.
But in these modern days the state
has been particularly distinguished for
it's idiosyncracies as expressed in all
modern isms. 1t has INDUCED in prohi-
bitionism, free -coinageism, spiritualism,
populism and Mary Leaseism. In short,
Kansas has been constantly in sort of
civic Mysteries and political St. Vitus
dance from the day of it's birth into the
union Of states. Kansas as territorial
embryo seems to have been so marked
mentally, morally and politically by it's
prenatal conditions that the state of
Kansas will never be able to outgrow it's
paroxysmal tendencies. Kansas pre-
sents question in sociology worthy of
the most serious attention and profound
study of those who believe in evolution.
The great question is: Can Kansas
ever emancipate herself from the power
of her hereditary tendencies?

fire shortly after . O'Clock Saturday
morning in the Morris House, just in
the rear of the V. 5. and p. passen-
ger depot, which is occupied by Mrs.
Kate Reeves and Miss @. L. Ellis as
boarding hoase. The fire was first
discovered in the attic, over the

originated from defective f1ue. A
few buckets of water put it out. As

flames were discovered in the attic
Of tine main building, which were

stroyed by fire Saturday afternoon.
The flames burst from the condenser
while the machinery was in full
blast, and the spread of the fire was
so rapid that the employees had to
hurry out of the building, having
barely time to save the books. Fifty
eight bales Of cotton, belonging to
various parties, were burned. The
loss on the building and machinery is
estimated OF $1,000, on cotton and
seed 81, sos, with insurance Of about

THE RICE CROP
GiT and Cotton Burned at
Observation-Disclosures Fires
at Monroe.

Crowley. w. W. Duson, who is
largely interested in rioe raising and
milling in Acadia parish. said in re-
gard to the truthfulness of the TO-
ports which have been circulated
that the Louisiana Texas rice belt
would produce at 8, 900, 000- bag crop
aad which has completely demoral-
lied the market in the country towns !:
THE report sent out from the East
OF 5000, 0oo-bag crop is absurd to
those who are in a position to know.
II must be admitted. however. that
early in the season there was good
reason to hope that the yield might
reach that mark. Weather conditions,
seemingly, could not have been more
propitious, and in some sections the
yield was really enormous, beyond
belief, almost; but that does not
hold good Of the entire belt, by any
means For some reason, inexplIcable
to most OF Us, the promise of a rec
ord-breaking crop was not fulfilled.
The rice now in the warehouses and
field is lighter than ever known. 1
think an estimate of 10 per cent is
conservative, and am inclined to the
belief that it is still lighter than
that.
Eyes, I think fully 80 per cent OF
it has been harvested. If the yield
goes over 2,500, 900 bags it will be a
great surprise to me. much more of q
surprise, indeed, than If it falls be-
low that number.
"I can see no good reason why rice
should not advance when it becomes
known that the crop has been over
estimated, and I expect to see prices
better than they are now at no dis
tant date.
Crowds Of negroes who have been
employed in the rice fields are leav-
ing town on every outgoing train.
Contractors who are doing a rice
hauling business are bringing their
teams in. All these movements indi-
cate that the crop is nearly all in,
except in few localities where they
were slow in securing machines.
