PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT

Editor Brettle spent Sunday at
Sharon springs, on Rolevelt day,
and publishes this Presidential Cos
SIP ia his Ellis paper:
=" It IS probably not generally
known that Hays made an effort
TO get the Presidential train over
Sunday but such is a fact. An
invitation was extended to the
President to spend Sunday at the
Kruger rBnche on the Smokey,
and our informant says If they had
had little more time they would
have succeeded. What a howl
would have gone up from the
towns west of Hays though
Teddy Roosevelt is great friend
of Mr.. Clark, of NY. city, who
has the Conrad Kruger rancho in
the southeast part of this county
and wanted to visit it.
In June 1890 on his trip to Okla
homa he was expected here cou
| pie days but had to return to his
Office as Governor post haste.
But now he had a I'd chance as
he was going thro' our county, &
the first public announcement of
the trip stopped at Hays city,
Unfortunately the invitation was
a few hours late as Senator Burton
the afternoon previous, had arran
ged the Sharon springs trip. But
even then 1t was not settled as the
President wanted quiet Sunday,
he and mis- friends no circus show,
and as editor Ward announced ex
curslon trains. big tent, etc. all OF
which the President vetoed, and il
the secret service man who went
there hadn't found his wishes car
RED out cypher dispatch, would
have come from Topeka announc-
ing stop here, its meaning not
known until the train arrived, for
Sunday was his private day.
| The arrangement was for the
train to come as announced, after
his speech an announcement made
'that he would hold public receI
Ition and handshake in GAR hal
from s to 10p.m.' the band played
"a Hot tlne', and the train ran out
to WakeeneV. back to Ellis for sur
Iplles and here at 7:3O. Sunday
morning, unknown to anybody
here, accompanied by his detective
land escorted by Prof. Haney and
with the Krueger boys as guides,

A LENTEN SUGGESTION.
Kindness to the Poor a Good Way
to Observe the Season.

Willie preaching ON the prevalence
or pride, in the Moody church in
Chicago one evening this week, the
Rev. William r. Newell said he
would give dollar to anybody in
the congregation who would confess
to the need of the money After "a
considerable pause, which caused the
minister to say, II told you so, a
shabby. withered little woman, bent
with age, made her way up the aisle
and accepted the gift II am too old
TO WORK, she said. i need the mon.
ey, and after all what is pride to me
will take the dollar home to my poor
sister with whom l am living, and
who can make use OF it, God knows. -
This happened in city where there
are many millionaires and multi
millionaires and where the people are
far from being oppressive or unmerci-
full. says the Kansas City Times
There is not much question that il
the necessities of Che poor old woman
who consented to bury her pride for
one dollar had been known they
would have been relieved. She be-
longed to class of destitute people
whose position is particularly painful
and embarrassing. They hesitate to
proclaim their poverty and suffer the
privations which come to them daily,
in silence. Old age pensions would
do much to relieve this form of dis.
tress, hut in the absence of that pro-
vision, the work must be done by pri-
vate philanthropy.
At the outset of Lent it does not
seem to be so necessary for church peo.
pie to determine what they will not
do to crafty themselves as what they
will do to help others. The cessation
of gayety and social activity will
afford much time for the exercise of
charity and benevolence. 1t is an op-
perfume season for the fortunate half
of the world to learn how the other
half is living. There is not much
i'll big city for people to
go around among their neighbors un-
less they are all we'll to- do or all poor.
That is the reason that poverty is 80
often unknown and that suffering OK
lists where it ought to be relieved.
The trouble is due to thoughtlessness
and ignorance rather than to real sell
fishness. A little vigilance and neigh
borly care in all parts of the city
would speedily correct this. 1t is the
duty of people of ample means to
know something about the humble
people in their neighborhoods. and this
can be accomplished in delicate,
kindly way that will give no offense.
While the Americans are initiating
many of the customs and usages Of
their British cousins the admirable
one of the rich and noble acting as
patrons to the poor should
not be overlooked. Don't mind so
much the abstention from meats and
the pleasures of the world as Lenten
as the practice of neigh
borly kindness aud getting around
among people whom you may be
able to do some good

REMARKS ABOUT THE MILITIA
BiII1for New Uniforms Is Passed After
Some Lively Discussion.

Springfield, Ills, April 17.-There
was considerable spoken opposition in
the house to the bill apprOpriating
$150,00O for new uniforms for the Ma
tional Guard barrow said that he
was opposed to the maintenance of a
large militia in time of peace. john
son Dem.) said that he belived the
militia was too large The governor
was insisting on making a military dis
play in the state. The militia had be-
come so large and burdensome that
people had come to speak of its mem
bers derisively as Tin soldiers"
Il would like to ask said Clipper
field. IF there was any of those 5000
men that the gentleman is pleased to
cal tin soldiers who refused to go to
the front in the Spanish-American
war" [Applause.l
THAT is n pretty question-very
prettily asked replied Johnson, and
the gentleman from Fulton has ex-
plotted himself before the galleries. He
had no right to put that construction
on what / said"
Wilson Deml was opposed to a large
militia: he thought it too large, but the
legislature had voted to make it its
present size, and the only decent thing
TO do was to take care of it properly.
He said that the governor was in no
way responsible for the increase of the
militia.
The bill passed-yeas. 119; nays. g.
the negative votes being cast by Dar-
row, Kinds. McManaman, Stewart
and Johnson. the first four of whom
are voting against al appropriation
bills because, they say, when these are
passed the legislature will adjourn and
leave other important legislation I'M
enacted. The bill appropriating 1916
