KANSAS.
A SYMPOSIUM.

Want to see Kansas ? Take the elevator up
It'll save you lots Of climbing,
And you'll find her at the top.
A-doin lots of hustn' and not havin time to stop.
She's changed heap since you saw her.
She's grown an awful lot,
And is always in good humor
When she's carin for her crop.
She S quit all Of her grumblin'.
And never kicks bit.
For she's now got things a-comin
In way that suits her grit
What makes you think she's windy?
She's truthful as you please
She used to tell big stories
lust to make little breeze.
But lately the thought has struck her
That she's bigger than she thought.
And though her bowins caught many sucker
They're not worth the price they brought.
Now she's confronted with the problem
Or don what she must
With her overwhelming fortune
The product OF her dust.
You say you're a money-lender}
Then stay just where you are,
For she's strictly in that business,
Nd you'd better take the downward car. Fritz
Two score and three years ago to-day arose
the star Which is to The Union what the North
Star is to the heavenly planets.

Kansas:-She is not a perfect state. She
has probably many, if not more, cranks' po'
ltica ricksters and mounteLanks as any state
in the Union Vet, with all these, who is not
proud of Kansas? Her great common people
stand tor the highest standard Of morality, ed
ucation and Christianity. Her women, than
whom there are no better, are to-day welding
an influence in all the affairs of the world.
With all her faults, we love her still. MAY
she live long and prosper" L. D. KIRK.

Surely, some time during the rolling OF tins
GREAT terrestrial ball. Kansas is nearer the stars
than any other place. At all times, the people
of this nation are inquiring, What OF the wheat
crop and corn crop Of Kansas? How about the
cattle and hogs from Kansas? AS Kansas is
loup or short, so go the markets of this coun'
trv Kansas furnished John Brown, the fore
rnnner of freedom to the slaves. She has
fanatic whose Ratchet may yet lberate the
more intelligent class of slaves; and when her
neople realize that the interests OF the whole
people are greater than the interests OF ma

crusade that will abolish the rule OF the ring
and the trust. Then, we hope to make it our
home until we 60 to that country from which

For all her great progress in forty-two years,
