That People Say Halt"

While Topeka did a good deal in the
way of municipal Improvement during
the past year, Kansas City, Kan, did q
good deal more, if the special improve

Kan, went so far that an effort will
probably be made to get a measure
through the coming legislature to limit
the amount of bonds which may be is
sued for special improvements during a
year.
Kansas City issued special improve
nent bonds to the amount of $679 500.
Topeka's special Improvement bonds for
the year are given at S134, 900. Lawrence
issued S33. 600. Galena $40. 000 and Iseav-
enworth $4,000 Wichita. Fort Scott
