The G. A. r. council of administration
at Topeka the other day passed a special
resolution regarding the annual reunion
at Wichita: Resolved, That the depart
ment commander be and is hereby in
structed to take full control and direc-
ton of all encampments held under the
auspices of the Grand Army of the Re-
public; that the reunion shall not be an
adjunct TO any street fair or show TO be
held at the same time at Wichita; and
that If the department commander finds
1t necessary he is enjoined 10 change the
place or the date of meeting or declare
the same Off" Don't that frost you?
Does any one suppose for a moment that
the council Of administration, through, tfsE
Vaccinations Of the Topeka crowd. can
dictate to the members of the Grand
Army in Wichita and the southwest what
they shall or shall not do regarding a re
union? The most successful reunions
held in the state are the annual reunions
held here each fall. The car of Russia
has no such power. Somebody has van. d
on themselves. I venture the boys VIII
hold their reunion as advertised. Septem-
Der % to z, inclusive, and that it VIII
be the biggest one that has ever been
held in the state regardless of any reso-
lutions touching auxili~~ies. adjuncts.

Weather report for Wednesday-Chi

Kansas and Oklahoma Wichita: Raising
temperature; clear and falling thermome-
ter. Which happened ! 60-100 inches of

I would not allow any fire cracker
shooting nor pistol firing in the city until
the morning of the Fourth of July, begin
ming at o'clock a. m, and not another
single shot should be fired after u o'clock
Fourth of July night. DO the whole nerve
racking business all up inside of eigh-
teen hours and another years rest.
Did you take a good look at the crowds
of young men that were coming and go
ing through the city last week on their
way to the wheat fields? Many of them
were college boys going out partly for
the vacation. the physical work, the nov
city and the money. and then the hoboes
were thick not hunting a wheat field but
something to eat, but he told the contrib
utor of the cold snack that he was har-
vest hand.
would lower the step on the summer
street cars.
I have the greatest sympathy for the
unfortunates who are deformed, some Of
which are almost monstrositIes in body
but bright in brain, fully approaching
the struggle that many of them have TO
go through to make living, but believe
the authorities should in the interest of
timid motherhood not allow many unfor-
Inmates TO appear on our streets, TO drag |
their emaciated forms along the side
walks.
I would turn my attention to building
a storm sewer through this city to re-
lieve the actual needs. especially in the
business portion of the city. before con-
templating even the canal dyke and dam /
improvements, which we have gotten /
along very comfortably without for the |
past twenty-five years and may not need /
them in the next fifty years.
