Her rich soil would become a
breeding place of disease, and
her highways and fields would
become impossible bogs and mo-
rasses. Heat is energy, and it
is not a long Stretch of magma
tion to see the farmers of the fu-
ture utilizing the superabundance
OF heat carried across the prai-
ries, during the summer months,
as a source of power with which
to harvest their wheat crops and
plow their fertile fields. Imagine
an electric apparatus, consisting
of a network Of wires stretched
along the south and west sides
Of the farm, having the ability
to transform the heat of the
passing breeze, above rs degrees
F., into electrical energy. Such
an apparatus would be able to
deliver balmy fresh air of the
best possible temperature to the
growing crops and to furnish all
the necessary power to drive the
machinery of the farm. The i'm
putation of hot winds and
drouths to Kansas is no disgrace
to her in my estimation.
Her patriotic sons will one day
breed and introduce varities of
plants that will flourish like the
green bay tree with only 15
inches of rainfall. Forests of
conifers will be planted on her
western sand-hills, and every
farm will have it's forest wind
break. Her future horticulture
lists will breed varities of fruits
that Will steal their colors from
the sunbeams, and flourish
on the broad prairies even to
the Colorado line. Improved
breeds of bees will garner the
fluid sweets from millions of
acres of pedigreed alfalfa. The
sugar beet, already of royal
blood, reveling in an alkaline
soil, will extract crystalline sweet
ness from millions of acres of
western Kansas lands now be-
| lieved to be almost worthless.
The builders OF the greater
Kansas that is to be will not be
content to confine their activi-
ties to the superficial cultivation
of the soil. They will exploit
her inexhaustible underfow OF
the purest water man ever drank.
Her mineral resources will be
developed, and she will furnish
building stone for the rearing
of hundreds of beautiful cities.
Her gypsum beds will be con-
verted into fertilizers with which
to enrich the wOrnout fields of
the East. Reservoirs will be pro-
vided for storing the excess Of
rainfall that now runs to waste
and erodes the undulated prairie.
Rivers will be brought under the
control of man and all available
supplies of moisture will be di-
rected towards the service of the
people in their various indus
tries.
| The future Kansas will not de.
vote all her energies to the work
of satisfying the physical wants
of man. She will produce in
tellectual giants peculiarly fitteo
to deal with the great problems
of her development. Schools
churches, and literary institu
tions will reach and influence th,
, moral, mental, and physical de
velopment of the whole popula
l tion.
Her people will remain largel,
! agricultural in their pursuits
l The welfare of the farmer vii
always mean the welfare of Kan
sas. Her wisest statesmen vii
!, never ignore these facts. In he
happy future growth let us hop
: that she will be blessed with &c

D0DGED TIE QUESTION.

On the question of prohibition
or resubmition the republican
state convention was too coward
ly to take a position in its plat
form. Having forced the pro-
hibitory liquor law upon the
people years ago, and from time
to time enacting amendments
or strengthening acts, that
party had not the manhood to
stand by it's own work and say
it was good. There is no ques-
tion but that in their hearts
most of the delegates to that
convention acknowledge that
their pet law has proven a farce
and a by-word; but they had not
the moral courage, the sense of
Justice or manhood to insert in
their platform a plank which
would say they favored resting
the question of whether the law
should be enforced or repealed
with the voters of Kansas. They
remained perfectly silent on the
subject, in order that their speak
ers and party workers could talk
either way-according to the
people they were talking with.
But the democratic state con-
vention was different. Thank
the Lord THEY do not go before
the people as two-faced hypo-
crits. Here is what the demo-
cratic platform says on the ques-
tiOn:
"We believe in the principles of
the initiative and referendum in
a republican form ofgovernment,
as applied to all public questions,
and trusting in the wisdom and
patriotism of the voters of the
state of Kansas, and knowing
that alarge number of the voters
of the state wish the opportunity
of expressing their sentiments at
the ballot box on what is known
as the prohibitory liquor law,
we, therefore, are in favor of sub
mitting the question to the
voters of the state at such time
as will insure a full vote, and
thereby settle the mOoted ques-
tion beyond cavil."
The democrats of Kansas have
for years made an effort to have
the prohibitory liquor law SUBJ
mitted to a vote of the people.
We are willing at all times to
trust to a vote of the people on
that or any other question that
effects the whole people. If a
majority of the people voted for
retaining the law on the statute
books it could then be made
more effective. But if a ma
iority of the people think the law
is an injury, an injustice to indi-
viduals and to the state, then
most certainly it should be re-
pealed.
But the republicans of Kan
sas-using the law as they do to
coerce the whiskey men and
wheedle the temperance people
are supinely silent on a question
that is one of the livest issues in
the campaign.

CHARLIE LULING, of Wichita,
the republican candidate for state
insurance commissioner, was Sc
lected by all the corporate insur-
ance companies doing business
in Kansas, and will be backed by
them with any amount ofmoney.
His opponent should be Webb
McNall, whom the people would
back with their votes-regardless
of how much slush fund the big
insurance companies put in the
republican campaign. Luling is
simply a toolfor the corporations
and even the republicans make no
bones about admitting it.
