Kansas City, Mo-, have inaugurated a
plan for holding Vote Contest the
coming election for governor of Kansas,

entertainments to be given in the Hall

ed is similar to that of the Guessing Con-
test the vote of Ohio which was held

inducements offered this year much
greater that those in the former contest,

OF $1,000, and the other prizes will be
trger in proportion. All prizes will be
a cash, the sum of $4,000 having al
ready been secured to pay the prizes
The number of prizes has also been in
creased. and there is now 1854 prizes
the list. Each purchaser of concert
ticket. the price of which is % cents,
will he entitled to record one estimate as
to the number of votes to be cast for gov
ernor of Kansas at the election Novem-
Der 4, 1902, and the one who estimates
the correct vote. or nearest the cor
rect vote, will be paid $4,000 in
C ssh. To the others who make the best
estimates will be given the remaining
1 prizes in order. The awards are to be
| made by impartial committee upon
the official certificate OF the Secretary of
State of kansas A large cash special
/ prize is offered for the best estimate re-
ceived during the month of July Per

TROUBLE is BREWING
For Those Who Are Killing Birds And

For Those Who Are Killing Birds And
Destroying Property at the Park.
The city council has decided to pro-
tect the City park if the action should
fill the jail all year around. Further
they have offered q reward Of % for con-
viction of each offender. in order to have
other help watch the grounds. The
names of the young men who broke the
nice swing donated to the park, are
known, and the authorities have only de-
lAyed punishment in order to give the
young men chance TO get together and
pay for the damage done. The boys who
have been whiting ON the benches in
the park are also s-iisted'' and there Is to
be arrests by the Wholesale unless the
off-nses are stopped now and for all
time. Every one should be proud of
Dodge City's beautiful park. The boys
who spend so much time there should
take an interest in keeping it In good
condition. It is desired to have the
park full of song birds, and the Kill
ling of the birds must be stopped.
The council is giving its attention to
these matters and should have the as
sistance of every person in town who de-
sires to have a nice city park.

this was great deal more by many
thousand dollars than the total ex-

borrow money. Forty thousand dol
lars was borrowed earlier in the year,
and now the city has to borrow 81, 900
more to pay off current liabilities, and
slS, 500 with which to pay of the de-
faulted interest on city bonds, which
interest has already been levied and
collected from the taxpayers of Padu-
cab, and should have been in the city
treasury ready to be applied to the
purposes for which it was levied and
collected. Hence we find the admin

81, 900 another, with no certainty of

PRESIDENT RoosEvELT's

FIRST YEAR.
One of the sblest articles written on
Presidents Roosevelt appears in the last
issue of the Philadelphia Post, by
william Allen White. 1t is brief. to
the point and free from partisanship.
1t is a fair and logical summing up
of what President Roosevelt has
done, and how he did IL, during the
first year of his service as chief ex-
ecutive. Mr.. White says in part:
Roosevelt is looming up as the
great national lesder, bigger than any
party, tine epitome OF his times, the
great American. If he is the Repub-
lican candidate in 1904 there will be
new life in the party"
"In his New England speeches this
August Roosevelt spoke often of the
humble virtues Of family and civil
life. There is no doubt that he sees
the need in America for the return,
in SO far as civilization today al
lows it, to the simple life which
made America sturdy and sane and
brave a generation ago. His life as
a father, as a husband, as a citizen,
as a politician and as a president
has been simple in the extreme.
And if he accomplishes no legislative
reforms, IL he fails in every endeavor
to set the world Alright, the country
cannot be cheated of that which is
rather to be chosen than any law or
any policy-the moving example Of
a plain, strong man, living, work
ing wholesomely, in unpretentious,
old-fashioned democratic simplicity"
at is not for what he has done or
left undone during the year last past
that the country owes gratitude to
Roosevelt. It is for his influence.
That has been tremendous. The laws
that have been passed have been for
the most part Of McKinley's suggest
ing; the appointments that have been
made have been good average men.
The men whom the president really
leans on were in mis- cabinet when he
came to the White House. But the
difference between the two presidents

ing to equal it.
Hon. John K, Hendrick Of Paduoah

Hon. John X. Hendrick of Paducah
has opened his campaign as a candi-
date for the Democratic gubernstorial
nomination. He is by far the ablest
man the Democrats have yet sug-
gested for the nomination, and the
people of this section would like to
see him get it. But it is feared
that when the machine crowd at
Frankfort, which has its ramifoations
into every county in the state, gets
through with him his friends went
know him.

After various other ways Of ending
the anthracite coal strike have been
discussed and discarded, it appears
they have at last hit on the right way
to end it-go to work on the miners.
They caused it, aud could have gone
to work any time they chose, not quit
work at all, OF allowed others who de-
sired to work; but they wanted
trouble. and they have had it, Thew
have bitten off their noses TO spite
