START SOMETHING NEW.

Today closes the second annual Mid
winter exposition of Topeka, an exposi-
ton which not only surpasses the first
N4idwinter in every particular. but
which ranks high among the numerous
festivals which have been managed here
during the past ten years.
It would possibly not be exact to say
that the Midwfnter exposition has come
to stay. The public taste is rather
hclzle about such matters. and to be a
permanent annual success is a distinc-
tion which has so far not been attained
by anything of the sort except a circus.
But there is reason to believe that in
some form Topeka win continue to hold
midwinter festival It up to the
managers Of the exposition to determine
what form the entertainment shall take
Something new" is the continual de-
mand OF the public. and unless the de-
mand can be satisfied there viii come
day when the Midwinter exposition viii

New features are scarce. They are
worth money to anyone who can sug-
gest them. Atchison has made its fail
carnival a success because It was the
first town to discover the possibilities Of
corn as a source Of amusement and ad-
vertisement. Topeka has made the Mid
winter exposition a success because It
was the first to think Of holding big
Kansas celebration in winter time, and
was the only city in the state which has
a building suitable for such a celebra-
ton.
Now for something new which will
keep up the interest. and add to the
crowds. The AIidwinter exposition
managers could well afford to offer $500
in prizes for new ideas. Let the com
petition start at once. Give everybody
time to think about it. and advertise the
offer well throughout the state This
prize competition itself would be worth
$500 as an advertisement It would
give other towns a chance to take
close, personal interest in the exposition,
and would make it necessary to keep the
doors open for an extra week to ac-
commodate the out-of-town visitors.

IRRIGATION OBSTACLES.

The government engineers who have
in charge the execution Of the national
irrigation law are not little perturbed
over the discovery that the land tribu-
tary to the various irrigation projects
which they have been surveying since
the passage of the act has been largely
filed upon by private parties in antici-
patton of government construction.
Not only this, but the absorption of
these best lands is constantly going on
by spectators and land stealers.
If the lands were being entered by
bona fde settlers and prospective home
seekers who simply wanted to be on
the land when the irrigation works are
constructed, there would be no harm
as actual settlement is what is desired
but most Of the entries are known to
be fraudulent made by dummies" who
Immediately transfer title to big spec
uIative and stock interests. This is
shown by the fact that in many sec
tions where large areas have been en-
tered, there is absolutely no increase
In the population.
There is a constantly growing santi-
ment in favor of the repeal of the land
laws under which such abuses arr. pos
sible, and if the people of the countrS
thoroughly understood what perjury
fraud. and stealing is being enacted,
congress would suddenly find the re-
peal of these laws the burning question
of the hour. This is not in any sense
the cry of alarmists: it is facts, shown
by the records of the government and
by the personal official Investigations
of the irrigation engineers.
It is a preposterous argument to say
that the land-steahng and questionable
entries should be winked at because
they are bringing large amounts of
money into the irrigation reclamation
fund.
What is the use of a large fund for
irrigation construction if the lands
which the government hoped TO irrigate
are all to be absorbed into great
estates. by which the home-seeker and
the settler have been left out of con-
sideration2

The address made Thursday night be-
fore the Kansas Day club by General
Wood justifes the assertion made by
the State Journal last spring with refer
ence to Senator Burton's fight on Cuban
reciprocity. Senator Burton's position
in Washington was wel known, but
when he came to Kansas he attempted
to make it appear that he was not fight
ing President Roosevelt but that he was
really friendly to the president. His
insfncerity was plainly proven by Gen
eral Woods speech.
General Wood is closer to President
Roosevelt than any other man in Amer
lea. He came to Topeka Thursday to
make that address with the presidents
personal knowledge. He was practically
the personal representative Of President
Roosevelt. What he said practically
came from the president himself.
It is well known that Senator Burton
was directly arrayed against Congress-
man Long in the fight for reciprocity.
and here is what General Wood said
about Mr.. Long;
"One OF your own statesmen. Mr..
Long. whom you have just honored by
electing him United States senat tor, is
the man who made Cuban reciprocits >
possible. I first heard of him when
was down in Cuba, getting department
inquiries, saying Congressman Long
wants all the details about this. that
and the other, and we used to wonder
who in thunder Congressman Long IS
and what does he want these details
for? We got to work and gave him the
details and he attended to the rest
The statement also that some of the
opponents of Cuban reciprocity were IN
the fight not SO much because they were
against Cuban reciprocity as because
they wished to bring to a close the po-
litical career of President Roosevelt.
while not naming Senator Burton was
a significant one
This speech doubtless indicates. too.
the relative positions the two Kansas
senators viii occupy with reference to
the administration. While Mr.. Burton
IS the senior senator, there seems little
room for doubt that Mr.. Long viii be

back home and behave themselves,
and If he had lived he would have made
this wish effectual. as he made every
thing effectuai, to which he seriously
addressed himself"
If Lincoln had lived there would have
been no era Of reconstruction-if the
southern states had followed his ad-
vice to come back home and behave
themselves If they had followed that
advice after Linc0ln's death, there
would have been little trouble or fric-
tion or occasion for heartburning over
the restoration Of the southern states
to their old status, and in all proba-
bility the admission of the freedmen
to full suffrage would have been post
poned until they had an opportunity
to elevate themselves above the condt-
tions. intellectual and moral, in which
generations Of slavery had left them. It
was the stubborn purpose of the south
ern people to use their restored law
making powers to nullify the
effect of emancipation and to
practically re-establish slavery in the
south that compelled congress to give
the negroes the franchise for their own
protection. and to keep federal garri-
sons in the south to compel respect for
the law The fact that President John
son sympathized with the southern
view ard fought against the action of
congress to the utmost doubtless ag-
gT3vated the situation, but if Lincoln
had lived and the re-esta blished state
legislatures had taken the course they
did, they would have found the. hand
Of gentle Lincoln heavier than the hand
of Grant
