Meeting of the Pops.

Topeka, Kans., April l3-The popu- list state convention met here yester- day and selected eighty-nine delegates to the national convention at Spring feld. They will meet again in this city August 3, at which time an effort will be made to fuse with the demo erats. who hold their state convention Aere on the same day. In the conven- ton today the 'middle-of-roaders" strongly insisted on nominating a state ticket, without reference to anything the democrats wanted. The other ele- nent tried to patch up a deal to nomi- nate candidates for all important state offices, have these endorsed by the democrats at their state conven- ton and then permit the democrats to name the remainder of the ticket. The adherents to this scheme were in a majority, but the opposition threaten ed to bolt. and nominate straight populist ticket, in each case such ar engagements were made. Ex-Senator W. A. Harris, who was the choice of both factions for governor, refused to accept the nomination, and a split convention was the result About the enly thing the war ing elements agreed to today, were the resolutions, which endorse "Wm- Randolph Hearst CT some equally. pronounced reform democrat for president"

A proposition is to be submitted to congress asking for an increase in the pay of soldiers in the infantry and cavalry branch who qualify as expert sharpshooters and expert rifiemen. The great value of soldier who can hit what he shoots at over one who cannot, is so seIf-evident that it seems very strange congress has not already recognized this fact to the extent asked for by those who pro- pose to present the proposition to that body, says an exchange. Tn hand-to- hand conflicts, weight of numbers tells, but with battles fought at from five hundred to two thousand yards, thousand expert marksmen are worth ten times their number who dispute the fact that an expert rifle man or sharpshooter would be quali- fled as a skilled laborer in civil life if he possessed an equal amount of skill in any other trade Of course, the proposed increase in pay will require legislative action, but no better in- svestment can be made by congress in the allotment of public funds tban that which would make the position of the soldier more attractive to the in telligent and industrious young man of this country and that which makes it worth while for the soldiers to do their best with their weapons.

The thought of possible cartoons cannot well be absent from the minds of men whom all the world knows. Mir. l.. A. Tollemache, the author of Talks with Mir. Gladstone" tells-not in the book-a story which presents the statesman in an attitude not fa- miliar in ordinary representations of the great man. One stormy day dur- ing one of MT. Gladstone's visits to Biarritz he walked from his hotel to call on, Mir. Tollemache. who was amazed to see that MT. Gladstone came without an umbrella. Mr. Gladstone laughingly explained that if the high wind had happened to turn his umbrel- la inside out, picture of him in that forIorn plight would have found its way into half the comic papers of Flu rope.

The new pronunciation is not unpleasant; in many ears it is more agreeable than that prolonged utterance of 'star," as if it were .'stah-ur," which New York theater ananagers call that "disagreeable western burr" and ann putate as quickly as possible from the speech of the promising pupils who eventually bloom into famous s'stahs' instead of "stah-urs,' as they would have pronounced it when they first came up out of the great central part of the country, the mother of many of the nations great.

If we cannot all enjoy season of grand opera it is pleasant to know that some of our favored countrymen and countrywomen can. The American musical critics assert that this coun- try will have more first class artists on the boards the coming winter than will be heard in the great music cen ters of Europe, notably Berlin. Of course it is American cash that does the business. but it is a step in ad- vance to be certain of getting good music for good money.

After reading about the various can didates filing their election reports and the amount it cost them whether they get there or not. one is inclined to ask, where did it all go to? Echo answers where? The Hartford Times makes no secret of saying that voters were bought up like cattle in the capitol city.

The publisher and magazine editor abused men on earth, with the possi- ble exception of the newly elected ex- ecutive who deals out official pastry at the political pie counter. Every au- thor and would be author in the coun- try has some grievance, and the pub fisher gets the benefit of them all
 Perhaps the most exasperating thing about it all is, to the aspiring author, that is, says an exchange, the formally polite printed slips with which his stuff is sent back. T prefer person al communication" says the average writer, '.even if the publisher damned my manuscripts These complaining authors should have done business with Schabelitz, the famous Zurich publisher. who has recently died. Schabelitz was considered shrewd business man, an excellent linguist and versatile writer. But he will be remembered probably as, the most boorish publisher that ever lived. Most people when they wish to talk plainly through the mails inciose their remarks with envelopes. Not so schabelitz. He talked plainly, and he used postal cards almost invariably in his correspondence with authors. Many stories are told about these fam ous postal cards. One of his postal cards to a novelist Is said to have read about like this: For heavens sake
 come and take away the unnamable
 mass of paper you left here for me to
 look at.' An ambitious historian re- ceived the following: "You are mak ing the mistake of your life. You don't want to study history. Yor want to learn how to write.' One oi the most characteristic of these posta
