N M'KINLEY MEMORIAL FUND
Appropriate Observation-Disclosures
the Generous Children of lola
Give SI3.97.

Wednesday, January 30 was the
birthday of Kansas and the birthday
of the late President Mckinley. And
at the request of Governor Stanley
that day was made the time for col
lection among the school children of
money for the Mckinley Memorial
Fund. With their usual generosity
lola people instructed their children
to give generously to this noble fund.
The result of Wednesday collection
was the raising of S43.97.
1t was not a cold, unfeeling collec-
tion. Appropriate exercises ere held
in all the rooms, local speakers giving
short talks about the courageous,
manly life and the brave Christian
death of the dearly beloved President.
AT the south Jefferson building f. w.
Myler addressed the Eighth grade, b.
f.. Clifford Miss Hendricks room, John
Goshorn, Miss Ausherman's room,
II. II. Bennett Miss stones room and
s. A. Gard Miss Woods room.
At the high school building the eX-
ercises consisted of an Grafton on
Monuments by Edith Austin, the reci-
tation of poem on McKinley's death
by Helen Smith and the reading of an
extract from President Roosevelt's
message on the same sad event by Dan
Servey. At the south Walnut street
building exercises by the children con-
stituted the program.
The subscriptions by buildings were
as follows: High School S9,l5; South

SURRENDER TO MONARCHY.
Kansas City Star;

Kansas City Star;
The Star has received stirring
letter from citizen of Colony, Kas.,
inquiring what Congress means by
sending a delegation to the corona
ton of Edward VII. OF course there
is conspiracy of some kind. 1t is
high time it should be uncovered.
Here is the way the indignant citizen
of Colony avs bare the plot;
"What is this delegation to do when
they get there -? If they are not to as
sist in placing an ornamented cap
called Grown on the head of q man
called King, it would be superfuous
and Improbable for this republic to
pay out money to send them. If they
are to take part in monarchial cere-
monies, so much the worse for them
and free anti-monarchial people that
they are intended to represent. Such
servile trucking to monarchy is
enough to provoke the bones of Pat
rick Henry, Abraham Lincoln and
General Jackson to turn in their
graves. What are kingdoms and em-
pires to this free people The only
solution that l can think of is that
Congress wants the delegation to take
lessons in the crowning business SO
that theyNHould know the better how
to crown Theodore Roosevelton March
A, 1908, with the assistance of an Eng
lish delegation sent out by their
king"
The dogs are barking at the pyra-
mids. The demons of monarchy are
rioting gloriously. The ghosts of the
+ Revolutionary fathers are pale with
fright. a trucking congress is wax
ing fat on British gold Who knows
but what the delegates will bring home

KANSAS Al YEARS OLD

Topeka Herald: The anniversary of
the admission of Kansas into the
Union is known as Kansas Day. 1t
is recognized as a holiday, and some
time the Legislature will make it a
legal holiday.
This year the interest in Kansas
Day is unusual. Secretary George
Martin of the State Historical society
says there has been more demand for
data about Kansas in the last thirty
days than any other like period since
he has been in office. Hundreds of
people have visited the rooms of the
society to dig things out of the Herd
Book, Wilder's Annals, Robinson 5
History of Kansas. Hill =. Wilson 5
new book of biography, and similar
works. The data thus obtained is for
use in speeches, school essays, and
newspaper articles.
The schools of the state have plan
ned for Kansas Day exercises. The
program outlined by the Governor
and the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction has generally been fol-
lowed in the preparation for the cele-
bration.

CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION
Second District Will Hold Theirs in
Ft. Scott March ll-IOla Tied the
Vote but Lost.

A meeting of the Second Congress
sional District Committee was held in
Topeka We'd esdall ind ilIwas decided
to hold the con ventlon March IL at Ft.
Scott The Allen county folks asked
that the convention come to lola and
on the first ballot the vote stood four
for lola and four for Ft. Scott. No
member was present from Anderson
county and the Ft. Scott advocates
chased out, secured man to represent
that county, and he voted for Ft
Scott. So the convention goes there.
1t is the earliest of the congression-
al conventions and as there is no OPP
posing candidate in this district it
seems probable that the business of
the meeting will consist in re-nominat-
ing j. d. Bowersock on the first
ballot.
The apportionment of delegates as
fixed by the committee is one at large
from each county and one for every
200 votes or fraction thereof
cast for Congressman Bowersock two
years ago. In view OF the fact that
Allen county has been allowed an in
crease of four delegates to the State
Republican convention at Wichita, a
total of fourteen now, the delegation
to the Ft. Scott convention will prob
ably be larger also.

A Good Offer.

This is the important season of the
year for the reading farmer-the man

the season when the years. business is

President Buchanan signed the bill
admitting Kansas into the Union on
January 20, 1861. The Beavenworth
Conservative printed the first item
about it. The paper was notified by
Mark Parrot, delegate in Congress.
The Conservative got out an extra,
and d. II. Anthony took bundle of
papers to Lawrence, where the Legis-
lature was in session.
That night there was a iolli6cation
at Lawrence. The old Sacramento, "
a notable cannon, was used in firing
salutes. Leavenworth and Atchison
also had big meetings. In a few days
the news spread over the state, and
demonstrations were made every
where.
The day the Kansas bill was intro
duced in Congress, Jefferson Davis
and other rebel Senators withdrew
from the United States Senate.

The question of most importance
now before Congress is "The proposed
lsthmian Ship-Canal," and William
II. Burr, member of the Commission,
gives the clearest possible exposition
of the whole subject for the general
reader. Professor Burr speaks with
the highest authority as an engineer,
and from actual observation of the
Nicaragua and Panama routes. He
is vivid writer and his article is en-
tirely free from technical obscurities.
His attitude toward both routes is
judicial, and he balances the advan-
tages and disadvantages of each with
perfect frankness. Everyone who
wants to know about this great project
can get an adequate idea OF it from
Professor Burr article. The
illustrations and diagrams help to
make it entertaining. 1t appears in
Scribner's for February.

A REGISTER reporter was in Kan
sas City Tuesday evening, and had
the pleasure of seeing General Fred
Funston at the Midland hotel. He
was holding regular levee and the
office and cattlemen and lumbermen
were beseeching him to attend their
banquets and eat and talk. The Here
ford people wereA, particularly urgent
and he finally did attend and made a
short talk. V"Tell us about stock
raising over in the islands," was the
way one of them put it, although all
the soldiers know that the stock of the
islands is largely caribou.
And Funston himself is looking
mighty well. He is looking as much
leshier and healthier than he did on
his last visit here as Goes Lieutenant
Mitchell. BY keeping quiet he hopes
there will be no need of another oper-
alton and that he will soon be fully
restored. And, of course, the next
thing he intends doing is to visit his
parents at Carlyle and his innumera-
BILE friends in lola. That will probably
be next week.
A dispatch to the REGISTER from
Kansas City at 2;30 Wednesday
says that the Generals physician has
decided that an operation will not be

John Marin committed suicide
at the poor farm last Sunday

the suicide was brought to town
Coroner Henderson went at once
to the poor farm, where he found
matters as stated above. He did
not consider it necessary to hold
an.inquest, for it was clearly a
case of suicide, and it was un-
necessary to make the county an

Every newspaper in Beltrami

Bemidji Sentinel, a new sheet in
the county, is supporting w. F,

has the worst belly-ache in the
county, and Bailey is out after

don't know him for what he is

Earl Carson and John Steidl, both
of whom were too we'll on to his
game to be worked. He is said tc
figure on getting enough out OF
Swed back to pay for his brothers
campaign in case his brothe,
loses, which he has every pros

will never see the money. His
plan is to convince Swedback
that it takes about, so much
money to "fix'' certain parties in

With $500 in his pockets Bailey

He and Loud are making al

newspaper readers may look for
an avalanche of abuse of Street

it because he thinks Street is sup

Loud agreed to support Street il
