REVIEW OF REVIEWS

Just as Mr.. John Morley's Life" of
VIM. E. Gladstone is the feature Of the
seasons literary productions SO w.
T. Stead's review of the same is the
feature of the December number of the
Review of Reviews. Mr.. Stead writes
with keen appreciation and from the
standpoint Of a personal friend of the
biographer. He rather aptly calls the
work 1.-THE life of Plus Aeneds by tid,ts
Achates," and adds, 'Emphatically pi,ts
Aeneas not less emphatically Jfdus
Achates." The review is thorough and
alone would give pretty accurate idea
of the grand old man and the great
statesman. Next to reading MIR. Nor
leys book, Mr.. Stead's article should be
recommended.

SIXTH DISTRICT NOTES.

It was a Beloit paper that advertised
in big head lines that 200 houses burned
in North Topeka in the night of the big
flood, but every big eastern paper did
the same thing.

The Saint Francis Rustler advises all

a few years ago the B. & NJ railroad
company was expending thousands Of
dollars in irrigation experiments in that

The alfalfa farmers of Mitchell coun-

in this cereal is A. G. Mead, member

and is of fair quality.
The BelOit Call is the only daily pa
per printed in the Sixth district. 1t is
a six column folio, half home print the
other patent. For ten days the Call
had to do all its work, the trains not
running so it could get the patent. Ev-
cry day during the blockade it came out
on time, filed with flood and local news,
and a first-cIass advertising patronage.
Since Editor Adamson has had sole
charge of the Call he has improved it
from day to day, until he says he likes
the work of issuing a daily, that his
readers appreciate it. the business men
realize its Importance as an advertising
medium, and that the Daily Cali has
come to stay.
They are now betting out in Mitchell
county that there will be hundreds of
fields of wheat in the county that will
run 30 and 40 bushels an acre.
For more than two weeks politics in
the Sixth district has been rain bound.

KLAUER'S GOLD BUG.

Many political bellwethers are itch
ing to go TO Topeka and see how the
thing is going to jump. And for the
same time all of the papers in the dis
trict have been telling about the big
floods, and nothing more. Even Con-
gresham Reeder's irrigation hobby is a
back number, and the artesian wells
which are to be sunk here and there
in the district have foated away in the
currents of the Solomon river and join
ed the big floods in the Kansas river
which came near annihilating North
Topeka and many other towns in the
Kaw valley.
