The directors of Convention Hall,
Kansas City, Mo-, have inaugurated
plan for holding a voting contest
on the coming election for COVER
nor of Kansas, in connection with a
series of popular entertainments to
be given in the hall next November.
The plan to be followed is similar
to that of the guessing contest on
the vote of Ohio which was held
last year. AT the close of the pre-
vious contest the directors found
that some who had made estimates
on the vote had misunderstood the
rules and, in order to remove
even chance for argument,
they promptly appropriated $1,000
additional and duplicated the list
of prizes which had originally been
offered. The inducements offered
this year are much greater than
those in the former contest, as the
first prize will be $4,000 instead of
5000, and the other prizes will be
larger in proportion. All prizes
will be in cash, the sum of $4,000
having already been secured to pay
the prizes. The number of prizes
has also been increased, and there
are now 1854 prizes on the list. Each
purchaser of concert ticket, the
price of which is Is cents, will be
entitled to record one estimate as
to the number of votes to be cast
for governor of Kansas at the cleo
ton Novembe 4, 1902. and the one
who estimates the correct vote, or
nearest the correct vote, will be
paid $4,000 in cash. To the others
who make the best estimates will
be given the remaining prizes in
order. The awards are to be made
by an impartial committee upon
the official certificate of the secre-
tary of state of Kansas.
A large cash special prize is Of
fered for the best estimate received
during the month of July.
Persons living outside of Kansas
City may order tickets and record
their estimates by mail, addressing
all communications to Convention
Hall, Kansas City, Mo.

A Club Needed.

Health officer Sprague of Spencer
township has a rebellion on his
hands. Persons who were some time
ago placed in quarantine because OF
a mild epidemic of smallpox have
grown restless in confinement, and
some of them are circulating
around more freely than
is good for the well-being of their
neighbors One man even refuses to
fumigate his house or permit the
health officer to do so. In the face OF
this state of affairs Mr.. Sprague is in
a ouandary. He doesn't know what
to do and has called upon the county
officials for advice. 1t might be sug
rested to him that he handle the SIT
uation with a club or a shotgun
When common sense arguments tai
in a case like this, more strenuous
efforts are not only permissible but
even advisable.
Violators of quarantine who need
lessly expose their neighbors to con
tagion are not deserving of delicat,
consideration. They should be com

the rights of the community. Promp
punishment of all infractions of thu
law might have a salutary effect
Persons who refuse to obey the order
of the proper authorities should b.
compelled to do SO until the time o
quarantine is passed and then b.
brought before the courts. In tn
United States there Is no excuse TO
the spread of contagion through care

1t is the duty of every man to take
an active part in politics, for the
safety of the nation lies in good poll
tics and in sound institutions. III the
good citizens desert the ship of state
there is danger ahead. 1t is there
fore. the duty of the better classes OF
society, TO encourage good men INTO
public positions and to teach the peo-
pie that money has no place in our
political scheme Purity in politics
involves reciprocity-high motives
and honesty on the part of the voter
as we'll as the candidate 1t is even
worse for man TO offer his vote or
his influence for sale than for the
other man to buy it. Therefore the
scandal does not attach altogether to
the candidate or the candidates; the
people themselves must turn over a
new leaf. There are already laws on
the statute books covering these mat
tiers: but it is impossible TO make mer
honest by legislation. The voters
| themselves must put stop to the
"bleeding" process, and must arouse
themselves to a realization that
vote at a caucus or at an election Il
a sacred right and privilege-that 1
must be exercised fully, thoughtful.
