A good friend took us to task for
the position taken regarding Holy
week in an issue of few days ago.
Now. If our position was misunder-
stood. we regret much. What we in
tended TO convey was that being holy
was not a periodical condition. but
that to live up to the Christian ideal
was to live holy and he holy through
out the year. We cannot understand
any other position for the ideal Chris
tian. Can he satisfy his conscience
in being drastically holy during one
week-the week commemorative of
Christ's suffering then become
remiss in his observance of his teach
ings at other periods. In our idea
of a Christ-like life 1t is to be holy
at all times-at no time any less pure
and undefiled than any other. We
cannot understand that anyone can
do good things one Sabbath and the
next have conscience sufficiently
pliable to permit one to do all pro-
hibited things that should not be
done Holy week.

as commonplace of law that an in

for life more than one time, or for
more than one time for any other of
fense. when full trial has been had.
But here is the third attempt now be
ing made to convict Nan Patterson.
That young woman may be guilty of
the killing of Caesar Young, but we
question whether any evidence so far
has been adduced to prove that she
did so. We are not attempting to
defend Nan Patterson. because we
think she Should be made to suffer
punishment, if proven guilty. but If
it is the law that her life shall not be
put in jeopardy more than once. we
fail to understand District Attorney
Jerome's position of trying her upon
the same charge at three different
and distinct times.

WILL BID FOR STATE FUNDS.
Citizens National of Emporia Wants
Its Share.

L. L. Halleck. cashier of the Citi-
zens' National bank of Emporia, was
in Topeka Thursday looking over the
situation preparatory to submitting a
bid on some of the state funds. The
Citizens National will submit a bid,
but it is not known how much they
will take. 1t is understood that the
bank recently acquired $4,000 worth
of Emporia improvement bonds, and
this may represent the amount which
they will deposit in lieu of state funds.
E. b. Schermerhorn, chairman of
the state board of control, and one of
the leading bankers of the state, said
in speaking of the proposed depository
law:
my bank will not bid for any of
this state money because we don't
need it. We have more money than
we can loan now. We do not even
carry any of the county deposits be-
cause we don't care to pay any inter-
est. If we paid interest on county and
state deposits, we feel we should pay
interest on the balances of our other
customers.
"Out in the western part of the
state, where there is cattle paper to be
carried, expect the banks can afford
to pay interest on deposits and bid on
this state money. But down in the
southeastern corner think there will
not be much demand for state funds

The situation regarding the dry dis
tricts of the Fifth ward is this: When
a new main is laid from the choke"
into town when a battery of new boil
ers has been bought, when new boiler
house has been built. when the smoke
stack has been increased in height
when "a new steamer fire plugs have
been installed on Kansas avenue, when
% new wells have been sunk, and a few
other things attended to. then perhaps
the dry district will get city water. In
the meantime property owners in the
dry district will pay taxes for water
service they do not get, just as they
have been doing for years.

proceedings in the supreme court
Then if that court grants the request
the mayor and city officials will be
enjoined from allowing the operation

NO UsURY IN KANSAS.
Ten Per Cent Sharks Have Little
Standing in the Courts.

Kansas City, Kan, Aug. 25.-The
money lenders who charge usurious
interest, having been driven out of
Kansas City, Mo-. are now trying to
build up a business on the Kansas side
in this city. According to the opinion
of the best lawyers. however. the Kan
sas laws are ample to prohibit the
operation of money lenders who
charge usurious interest. Only the en-
forcement of the law is needed to put
a stop in this state to the practices
which were followed in Missouri.
1.-THE Kansas law is equally as strong
as the Missouri law on the question or
usurious interest," said G. F Hutchings.
MANY of the cases now complained OF
are based on contracts made in Mis-
souri,. The loan people finding they
cannot collect on such contracts in that
, state are assigning their paper to par
ties in Kansas and are haraSSing the
debtors by garnishment proceedings in
the Justice courts of Wyandotte coun-
ty. The law of Missouri follows con-
tracts made in that state, but neither
under the laws of Missouri or Kansas
can usurious interest be collected in
Kansas"
The only thing the money lenders
can do, therefore, is to harass en-
ployes of corporations by garnisheelng
their wages, and because of rule Of
some corporations under which an
employee is discharged when his wages
are garnisheed twice, many bills OF
usurious interest are collected.
The demoralizing effects of the oper-
atoms of the loan sharks is seen in the
records of the bankrupt court in KAN
sas. About seven of every ten men who
take advantage of the bankrupt law in
the Kansas bankrupt court before o.
l.. Carter, the referee, are men who
have families to support and who,
through some bad luck or misfortune,
have at some time found it necessary
to borrow small sums of money. Later
on, when they find their wages tied up
by the innocent looking assignments
they subscribed to at the time OF Sc
curing the loan, and usurious interest
piling up, they are forced as a protec-
ton to their families to take advantage
of the bankruptcy law, thus Kidding
themselves of the debt for usurious
interest, and also canceling just obliga-
tions which otherwise would be paid.
