POWER CONTRACT SETTLED.
Committee Reports on S125 a Month
Which Satisfies the Council and Is
Acceptable to Mr.. Crouch.

Duplicate contracts have been drawn
up 10 fix the terms by which the city
will sell power from the plant at the
river to supply his electric railway
with motive power. The provisions of
the contract are as follows:
The city is not to furnish over 200
horse power and for this Mr.. Crouch
is to pay 1925 monthly, he to observe
all the provisions of the ordinance
granting him a franchise. The power
will be steam to run one engine and
dynamo, both of which heis to furnish
with connections. Should the gas
well belonging TO the city fail Mr..
Crouch is to help bear the additional
expense of fuel in proportion as 200
horse power compares with the total
power generated at the power house.
If any other boiler becomes necessary
Mr.. Crouch is to pay for it and be re-
paid by having his monthly retail of
Sl25 rebated until the cost is made up.
The city is to furnish man to operate
the machinery and keep it incondition,
''save for wear and tear, unavoidable
accidents, freshets, acts of God or
war" Mr.. Crouch may use the city
poles from the power house to the
Santa Fe railroad by putting arms
on them for his wires and caring for
the poles for ten years. The contract
is to expire at the end Of ten years and
may be terminated on thirty days
notice by the city if Mr.. Crouch fails
to comply with any of the conditions
of the franchise ordinance.
The plan is like this. The city will
own a huge engine and boilers at the
power house at the river where the
waterworks and electric lighting plants
will have their power generated. The
surplus energy of the machinery is to
be connected with a dynamo to be
furnished by Mr.. Crouch. At night
when the electric light plant is running
the waterworks plantwill not be pump
ing. In the day time when the water
plant in pumping, the electric plant
will be idle, and he says he will run
cars just as long as the public demand
iustifes it. For this power and man
to look after the dynamo Mr.. Crouch
is to pay the city 1925 a month, which
will materially help out in bearing the
expenses of the plant.

The lola Abstract COMPANY.

The increase in the amount of alb
stracting to be done in this county has
led another company to enter the
local field, entitled the lola Abstract
Company. S. c. Brewster is at the
head of it and offices have been Sc
cured in the Northrup National Bank
building. a complete set of abstract
books will be compiled from the re-

been hired to do the work. Mr.. Bryan
has for ten years been employed
about the Miami county court house
and has done considerable abstract
ing and is eminently fitted for the
work. 1t will be a matter of year
before the books are fully completed,
but the company figures it that as soon
as the work is well under way Jobs
can be taken to help along in the
expense.
Speaking of Mr.. Bryan, the Paola

Prohibition sentiment in Congress
that was not thought to exist What
argument is there against the canteen
that can not be waged with greater
force against the saloon? If the
soldier in the prime of life and sur
rounded by the restrictions incident to
army life is to be protected by the
government from the danger of indulg.
ence in intoxicants, why should not the
young who have not the experience
and the drinker who has not profitted
by experience, and who is not sur
rounded by the restrictions of the
soldier be entitled to the same pro-
lection? Does the action of Congress
indicate movement in the direction
of national Prohibition.
New York Observer: An item is

out of whiskey, and there is no APP
parent reason why the process of con-
version may not work as well one way
as the other-from whiskey to rags,
and from rags to whiskey. What a

Gently and Moran has visions of be-
coming a metropolis. 1t happened
this way:
The private car of President Still
we'll, of the proposed railroad from
Kansas City to Mexico, in which Mr.
Stilwell and a party of eastern capital
lists were riding, was attached to Katy
passenger train No. II on the Kansas
City division of the road, which left
Parsons at 2:25 O'Clock Sunday Morn
ing The train stopped at Moran for
water and when it resumed its Journ-
ey the private car of president Stilwell
was left at the water tank. According
to the story as told by some trainmen,
the crew on the passenger train never
discovered the loss of the private car
until they were fifty miles beyond
Moran. A freight train pulled into
the siding at Moran and coupled onto
the private car and pulled it into Kan
sas City. The brakeman on the pas
senger train was fortunately on the
special car and prevented any serious
accident to life and property. Presi-
dent Stilwell, it is said, was pretty hot
under the collar when he learned of
the affair, but it is presumed he cool
ed off when he learned that there wer

The Katy Comes to lola.

Months ago the REGISTER talked
over the matter with George Gould
and its other readers about lola as a
shipping point, and also told the Katy
people how they could build few
miles and get slice of the pie. Last
Fridays Kansas Citypapers confirm
the dispatch printed in the REGISTER S
telegraphic columns a few days ago
that George has bought the Katy. He
already owned the Missouri Pacific
which runs from Ft. Scott to Wichita,
connecting with Kansas City and st.
Louis from Ft. Scott. BY his last
purchase he gets the line that runs
through Allen county through Moran
Elsmore and Savonburg on the Kan
sas City and Parsons branch, and
also the line which cuts through the
west end of the county, running from
Parsons through Humboldt to En-
poria. The Goulds, therefore, own
three of the four railroad lines which
traverse Allen county.
Fifteen years ago the NJ. X. 81 T..
was part of the Missouri Pacific
system and it rightfully belongs there
to complete the network. The re- pur-
chase connects lola with St. Louis on
the east and gulf points in Texas. The
union of the two systems enlarges
Iola's freight shipping ability to in
clude allthe Katy systemand if George
will arrange to have the Missouri
Pacific dummy run from lola to Moran
and to Piqua at proper intervals to
connect with Katy trains at both
points the passenger Accommodations
will be greatly increased.

lions of the people, and not by the suf-
frage of the senate or the CURES.
The chief measure of Caesars dicta-
tership3 included a liberal distribution to
the wants OF the poorer citizens. the re-
vocation 9of the enactments of Sulla,
which had condemned even the children
of his victims to civil incapacity, and
the concession of citizenship to the in
-habitants Of Cisalpine. At the end Of
. II days he abdcated his office; but he
scaused himself to be elected consul, to-
gather with Servilius, for the ensuing
year. Nothing was henceforth wanting
to the regularity Of his government.
Caesar. as pro- consul, was a rebel from
the moment he quilted his province;
but as soon as he became consul the
right seemed to pass at once to his side,
while his adversaries We're transformed
into enemies and traitors.
In fact, the names of both the senate
and the people We're little regarded
amidst the excitement of personal con-
tention. It is said that even the chill
dren playing in the streets divided them
selves into Caesarians and Pompeians.
Pompeius was murdered in Egypt. Gaze
sar returned to Rome in September, B.
c. Al, and at once all men and all fac
tions quailed before him. After his con-
quest in Africa he was received in Rome
as the conqueror of foreign enemy with
great honors. The dictatorship was now
settled on him for life.
Caesar prepared to collect and combine
in single code the fragments of Roman
law dispersed in a multitude Of prece-
dents, in the edicts of praetors, the re-

| this shadow of free state still lowered
before mems eyes. while the pevIna-
| nent esta blishment of imperial SOW
ereignty was only delayed by the near
| ~ equal forces Of the chiefs who con-
! tended for it. Sixteen years after the
| death of Sulla the government was vir-
| tually shared between three military
| rulers-Caesar, Pompeius, Crassus-who
| formed what has been called the First
| Trumvirate. Sixteen years later q sIih-
| liar compact was renewed, and more
definite powers assumed. BY second
Triumvirate. 13 years later. the COM
monwealth of Rome had fallen actually
| under the sway Of a single despot who
| styled himself emperor.
Owing to Caesars early dissipation
| many had spoken slghtingly Of his
powers. Sulla mad OWNED his genius, and
had said. in the young Caesar there's
many Marius.
But Ponrpeius, who had come in con-
tact with him on his return from Spain,
| in the height of his own ascendancy,
had deemed him no more than a serv-
iceable dependent: and Cicero, when he
looked around him for a party to serve
and patron to follow had persuaded
himself that the state had nothing to
fear. and he himself had nothing to
gain from the elegant debauche who
! trailed his gown so loosely in the
! Forum.
| In the year IS 8. c. Caesar obtained

great factor in politics. For some months
in the year 100 B. c., Rome was in the
hands of Marius; but the senate was
again too strong and he was Ignorant
of politics. He yielded to senatorial
prestige, and the oligarchy was estab-
lished once more.
About this time, Caesar was born into
a world full of doubt and insecurity.
with problems confronting the states
man which few could understand, much
less attempt to solve. The family of
the Caesars descended from one of the
oldest and purest of Roman stocks and
it was one Of the many truly Roman
chara cteristics of it's greatest scion that
he set high value on his noble descent,
and knew how to turn it to advantage
in pursuing his political aims.
When Caesar was growing towards
manhood and beginning to understand
politics, under the influence, as we may
suppose, of his hero Marius, a new ques-
ton arose in which the convictions of
both parties came into such violent col
lision that civil war at once broke out
afresh. The two parties, forced into 4
temporary union by the death struggle
of the social war, had combined to be-
stow full citizenship upon all Italians
who chose to claim it within 60 days of
the passing of the bill. But the senate
made q provision which modified the
effect of this resolution.
All the new citizens We're to be en-
rolled, not in the "thirty-five tribes"
into which the whole Roman population
was divided, but in eight new tribes,
and. as all questions We're decided by
majority of tribe votes, their influence.
both in legislation and in elections, would
be comparatively small. This question
whether the new italian citizens should
or should not be fairly placed on level
with the rest, was thus the first in
which Caesar was actively interested.
When Sulla gained the ascendancy, he
made himself king under the title of
perpetual dictator. He resigned this
yer, however, but he had not the less
lie it his own.
J. as his singular ambition to re-
es,a, sh the free state by personal
CAPRI and open force. and to found q
republican constitution upon a mon
archie al revolution. He failed. The his

blow was to be struck. Caesar was as
sassinated in his seth year.
The name Of Julius Caesar has oiled q
larger space in secular history than any
other. The reduction Of the unwieldy
commonwealth of Rome under q single
autocrat was doubtless an abortive effort
terminating in the premature death of
its author and the overthrow Of his gov
eminent. 1t was easy to say that 1t was
not Caesar. but Augustus after him, that
established the Roman empire. Never
theless the man who first conceives and
