universe did not collapse when this e.
A. r. determined to refuse to march in
parade with Confederate Veterans The
conclusion Of these three camps is prop
er. Why should blackgvards walk in

know, the membership of these camps
may be some of the damn scoundrels
and buns in Federal uniforms who ter
rhed and robbed defenselesS women
throughout the sections of the South de-
voastated by Sheri an. by Sherman and

the Camp of Confederate veterans should
have been invited to join and march
with such an aggregation. Self-respect
should lead them to decline to be con-
nected in any manner whatsoever with

LEGISLATIVE NEWS.

Talk about the war of the roses
there is a war waging in Topeka of
roses versus carnations. Friday morn
ing, after the passage of the suffrage
bill IN the house of Representatives,
every member who voted for that
measure received a beautiful pink
carnatiOn with the compliments of Mrs.
Lee Monroe. The same afternoon each
contrary voter was presented with a
beautiful rose from a party of anti
suffrage women. Now that the war is
on, how will the senate vote? Each
senator, according to his preference for
either roses or carnations, probably
The suffrage bill referred to provides
that at presidential elections, all citizens,
regardless of sex, shall be allowed to
vote for presidential electors; that
women may vote for such electors the
same as men, but subject TO like restric-
tons. 1t is believed that this bit of
REIMBURSEMENT may be given without an
amendment TO the state constitution.
An interesting session of the house Is
expected Wednesday afternoon when
the senate bill providing for state oil
refinery comes up for consideration.
The board of control bill passed the
house last week and is now pending IN
the senate. This bill places all the niue
charitable institutions of the state under
one board Of three members to be
known as the state board of control,
and does away with all the old members
Of the state board of charities at one
straight swOOp. This is one of the ad-
minisTation measures and was intro
duced by Speaker Stubs.
The woman suffrage bill was voted
down IN the senate Tuesday after hav-
ing passed the house. Twenty-seven
senators voted against the measure and
only six for it. Strange that they should
have chosen st. Valentines day to strike
a death blow to this proposed privilege
to women.
At the opening of Tuesdays session
of the house, the venerable chaplain
said IN his prayer, that the best men in
the state should be chosen to represent
the people; but that if the best men had
not be chosen, then that the Lord would
make them so.
The house passed the railroad bill
Tuesday, which gives the railroad com
missiOners the right to fix rates.
The house has passed a bill abolish
ing the text book commission and turn
ing over to the state board of educa-
ton. the work and duties heretofore be-
longing to the commission.

WESTERN KANSAS IN 'DURUM
GOVERNMENT AND ROCK ISLAND CO.
OPERATE TO ENCOURAGE INDUSTRY.
by Congress OF S25sOOO
Likely to BE Made to Garry the Work
FOrward-COGgressma Mann and
John Sebastian Urging Action.

The great west and its golden proba-
bilities for mammoth crop production,
has enthused two great movements:
One, the action of the Union Pacific
railroad IN securing Prof. Campbell, of
Campbell soil culture fame, to conduct
experiment stations along its lines in the
arid west; the other, the very probable
appropriation Of SIS, 900 by congress to
test the adaPtability of durum or maca-
rOni wheat along the lines of the Rock
Island IN west and southwest, and in
which John Sebastian, passenger traffic
manager, is giving ardent aid.
Congressman Mann is urging the
necessary appropriation in congress,
and It is thought that the committee to
which the matter has been referred will
report it favOrably. IF so, the SIS, 900
will be available for the continuation of
the work so well begun. There is no
more potent force in promoting the de-
velOpment of the southwestern territory
than the railway companies whose lines
traverse that section. The varied chan
nels through which this influence IS ex-
erted and its benefcent effect for all in
teTests justly nOuTished should be fully
appreciated.
So Uncle Sam, seeing that the good
work will be pushed along, says to MS
chief gardener: There's a piece of
the plat over there on the other side of
the Missouri line that's been expert
mented with in a small way and demon
stratiOn proves that It has ability to pro-
duce durum or macarOni wheat in great
abundance. I want you this year to
put out a much bigger patch and get
maximum results out of that piece
Of ground" Audit is going to be done.
So parts of Kansas, Nebraska, Okla
hOma and Indian Territory will this
year be planted extensively with durum,
because that section IS particularly
adapted to its production. And this
great industry once successfully handed
over to the people of the west will revO-
lutOnize the short grass country and
make It yearly blossom as a rose.
Mr.. Sebastian, IN this connection, has
written a letter to Congressman Mann,
which was printed in the Congressional
Record because of its concise informa-
ton about the west and its needs. Mr..
Mann, in the house said: Mr.. Sebas-
tain is one of the best posted men on
the subject Of the products Of the terri
tory through which the Rock Island
system runs, and 1 call the attention of
the committee To this important matter
to show the interest which the people
generally have in this subject
DuTum wheat has been tried in indi-
vidual instances IN Sherman county,
with good results. The farmers who
have planted It say It is a great drouth
reSisteT, and natures with great rapid
ity. Now It is probable that govern
ment experiment will be made in west

ALICE LANDS DEAD.
Operation for TunOr to save Young
WOnan's Life OF No Avail.

Miss Alice Lands, "a years Of age,
who underwent an operation three
weeks ago at the home of ]. ". Bovd,
Of this city, for ovarian tumor, died
Monday afternoon at four O'Clock, of
peritOnitis, the frequent sequel Of such
a serious operation.
Miss Lands came to GOodland in
poor health a little more than three
weeks ago, and was cared for at the
Boyd home, being an old friend of Mrs.
Selma Boyd Smith; daughter of Mr.
and Mrs Boyd, who was Miss Lands
companion on her trip from Denver to
GOOdland. After her arrival she was
suddenly taken down with the old
trouble and fear was entertained that
she might not recover.
DR.. Carmichael was retained in the
case, but he held out little hope of re-
cOvery either in the present state or by
an operation Miss Lands, who had
been suffering with the disease for sew
eral years and growing continually
worse, decided for the operation, which
was performed by DR.. Shelton, of Pu-
eblO, assisted by DR.. Carmichael.
For two weeks the patient rallied and
seemed to be IN course of recovery IN
til Saturday night, when the appearance
of peritOnitis put an end to hope.
Rev. Eldridge, of the Methodist
church, who visited at the bedside of the
sufferer, remarked TO US of the patience
and fOrtitude Of the Christian. In her
die and be at rest. -
The body will be shipped to her old
home In Ohio for burial.
The parents of Miss Lands are dead
but sister and a brother are living in
Ohio

THE FIREMEN's BALL.
Annual Event o. Tip Top Lodge No. SOC,
at Opera House Friday Night

The Tenth Annual ball given by Tip
Top lodge No. 396, Brotherhood Of Lo-
connective Firemen, was held IN the
opera house Friday evening. These an
nual events of the various lodges OF en-
gineers, 6remen, conductors and train
men, are made more or less occasions
Of splendOr, and IN this case It was not
diminished, but the zero weather kept
some from attending.
Neither effort nor expense was spared
by the firemen, but if the general opinion
of the dancers is conclusive, the Denver
orchestra, the conspicuous item of ex-
Pense, did not come up to reputation.
The tempOs of the music had not the
rythm and nicely that goes to the center
of the art, and the Instrumentation suf-
hered from too heavy bass end. But
this IS no criticism of the fremen-rather
their defense, for this is not the first
time that Denver has Palmed of on
GoOdland a poor orchestra at a high
price.
The hall was brilliantly illuminated
and tastefully decorated. And the merry
dancers triPPed away the hours until
morning dawned. Luncheon was served
a la node on the stage.
A number Of out of town people wer e
present, and all in attendance enjoyed
the evening and spoke highly Of the
hTemen'S efforts to entertain.

The continued cold weather has been

frozen to death and hundreds of thous-
ands of cattle persisted. The loss of life
and stock, in the recent extreme wealth

SAD DEATH IN COLBY.
Lula Lauterbaeh, Prominent Young Lady
Of Colby, Dead With Typhoid Fever.


Of Colby, Dead with Typhoid Fever
Miss Lula Lauterbach, Is years old,
daughter Of August Lauterbach, cashier
of the Farmers and Merchants bank Of
Colby, died Saturday morning at FIVE
O'Clock, of typhoid fever. Funeral was
held Monday. The death Of Miss Lau-
terbach, who was a favOrite with the
young people, cast a gloom over the lit
tie town where she had lived so long.
The floral offerings were beautiful and
prOfuSe.
Miss Lauterbach, as assistant cashier,
was helping her father IN the bank up
TO the time of her last illness. Dr.. V.
9. Eddy, the attending physician, called
DR.. F. H. Smith, of GOOdland, in con-
sultatiOn IN the case by telegram Feb
ruary 3, but as Mr.. Smith was out of
the city, Phillipsburg physician was
secured.
Senator Charles BuschOw, president
Of the bank, was called away from the
legislature TO attend the business of the
bank, and brought trained nurse with
him from Topeka But skill and every
care failed.
The deceased is known in Goodland.

The senate and house Of representa-
tives of the Kansas legislature stands like
a wall for the rights of her citizens and
has heard the cry of her oil producers;
passing, over all opposition of the Stand
ard Oil trust and unstable politicians,
the famous senate bill No. 80, known as
the state oil refinery bill. 1t went
Trough the senate with unfettered
strength, and at shortly after O'Clock
Wednesday the house passed It by a
strong majority. The bill now goes 10
the governor, and that he will sign It
seems to the general belief.
The bill calls for an appropriation of
SO, 900 to build a branch penitentiary
at Peru, Chautauqua county, the site to
be donated by the citizens of that
county. The appropriation for the oil
refinery is 500, 600 and there is an ad-
ditiOnal appropriation Of 500, 900, which
is denOminated the revolving fund, -
as capital to purchase crude oil and put
refined oil and by-prOducts on the mar
ket. The labor IS to be performed by
convicts, but skilled labor and such
other labor as IS necessary in cOnstruc-
ton Of the buildings and works may be
employed.
The oil refinery plant will be in charge
of the warden Of the Penitentiary, and
the board of directors will have charge
Of the finances Of the institution and the
operation of the plant, under the act es-
suPerintend the construction of the
tabIishing the institution. They will

buildings and the operation of the re-
inery.
This is the most significant move and
is really a new departure in state legis-
lation and sets the pace for other states
in a systematic attempt to curb the
rapacity and extOrtiOn Of the Standard
Oil trust. The people of Kansas are
unanimous in support of the measure
and properly handled its 81 ccess as a
financial measure is beyond gu estiOn.
