VIII Call for Showdown.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY Kansas is
going to call for a showdown with
the government when congress con
venes next winter. Whenever any
plan Is suggested for the improvement
of the Kaw river to avoid floods the
claim is set up that 1t Is a government
stream and under government control.
If this is true, then Kansas will ask
the government to spend some of It's
river and harbor appropriations along
the Kaw river. II congress refuses
10 do that then Kansas will ask that
the government give up its control of
the river SO that the state can do
something, Congressman Miller will
handle the case for Kansas on the
floor Of congress.

SCIENTISTS ALL AT FAULT
Unable to Account for Movement OF
New Star.

New star.
Two years ago a new star Dlazed
out in constellation Perseus. Such
new stars are by no means rare, but
this was so great and varied in bril-
liancy so rapidly that 1t was specially
noteworthy. Soon after the outburst
that made the star SO bright 1t was
found to be surrounded by nebula,
and this nebula spread outward
around the nucleus, gradually as seen
by the naked eye, because of the
stars distance, but really with i'm
mense speed.
In fact, 1t has been calculated that
this speed was so great that it seems
impossible that the spread Of the ne
bula could have been due to the mo-
ton Of ordinary matter at all. 1t has
been suggested that the apparent mo-
ton was really only progressive H.
Elimination of the nebulous matter by
light from the exploded star. But
Prof. Simon Newcomb calculates that
even this will not account for the mo-
ton, for it was at least ten times that
Of light.
We have thus actually observed a
motion in the heavens that vastly ex-
ceeds any other that we have ever
heard of, whether 1t be of projected
matter or of ether-wayes. What 1t is,
we cannot at present even conjecture.
