Kansas Treasurer in Good Standing

At Topeka, Kan. ou July 27 the State
Executive Council approved the bond
of State Treasurer Thomas L. Kelly by
a unanimous vote. The bond consists
enl irely of personal security and is for

meeting of the board that Z. f. Ames
and J. I. Bradley, National Bank Ex-
aminers. had said the bond was strong
one. This ends the fight on the State
Treasurer so far as present develop

There is premium upon the Mas

runs from 35 to 40 years.
State Treasurer Ryan, who was
called into consultation, advanced the
idea of the greater safety of the Gov
ernment bonds and advised the Board
against placing all the money in the
State School Fund in one investment.
The Board, upon reassembling in the
afternoon, soon arrived at decision to

DELAYED Ditch Work Ruins Crops.

A dispatch from Fallon. Churchill
County, says: On account of the fail
ure of the Government contractors to
complete the irrigation bitches in the
Carson Sink, the crops in the Saltwater
district, embracing several thousand
acres of fine agricultural land, are a
failure. The first crop was irrigated
by the old system of bitches. but liter
these were cut by Government en-
gineers who promised to deliver water
to all ranchers by the first of May.
Later the date was changed to May 30.
But still there is no water, aud the sec
ond and third crops are hopelessly
blasted. Although many ranchers have
suffered heavily. the majority are in-
clined to be charitabla, saying the en-
gineers have an enormous task on hand
aud that they are doing their best.

AN ENCOURAGING
oEMocRATIc OUTLOOK.

II any Democrat is disposed to take q
gloomy view of the future let him find
encouragement in q review of the last
few years.
The demand for the popular election
of Senators has grown. The PROPOSE
ton never received endorsement in Con-
gress until 13 years ago. Since that
time the proposed amendmant has
carried in the House of Representatives
four times. 1t has been endorsed by
two-thirds of the States and by two
Democratic National platforms 1t will
come.
The protective tariff is becoming
more and more odious as it becomes
more apparent that the manufacturers
are extorting from the people at home
while they sell abroad in competition
with the world. Tariff reform will
come. And the deficit during the last
fiscal year suggests the advisability Of
an income tax.
The Trusts are exciting more and more
opposition as their methods become
known. Private monopolies are in.
defensible and intolerable" and all of
them must sooner or later be exter-
minated. The growth of municipal
ownership has been phenomenal and
men of all parties are supporting that
plan in all the cities.
The railroads have had their own
way. They have watered their stock
and Disseminated between persons and
places; but they will be brought under
Government control.
The Philippine situation is proving
the correctness of the Democratic posi-
ton. The Islands are burden in
peace and a weakness in war. A colo
nial policy provides at all times re-
pudiation of our theory of government,
and ultimate independence is the only
solution.
The labor question demands settle
ment along Democratic lines and each
years delay emphasizes the necessity
for relief.
The quantitative theory of money has
been established and the benefit of a
large volume of currency has been
demonstrated.
President Roosevelt's popularity has
been won by the advocacy of Demo
cratic policies and will be lost if he fails
to make good.
Why should Democrats not find en-.
couragement in the situation? The out.
look surely grows brighter day by day.

news that two damage suits for large
amounts are to be entered-one by In.
genger and his associates. who con-
tracted with Henry Cutting for the
purchase of a majority of the Washoe
stock, and one by Cutting against the
shareholders of the Washoe Company,
who refused at the last moment to
surrender their stock at the price
agreed.
The fasteners who were to buy out
and consolidate the two corporations
are indignant over Cuttings failure to
deliver the Washoe stock on which he
gave an option, and, In turn, Cutting
declares he will recover heavy damages
from his associates in the Washoe Com
pany, whom he charges with the

The Santa Fe Railroad is cutting into

By the offer of extra inducements from

Las Vegas misses that trade. Besides
the high tariff charged on ore has
driven that trade off. 1t now goes by

Reno Would Tax Professional Men

follow, as the members of these profess

prevented from practice simply because
they fail to take out a municipal license.
The city will contend that the license
ordinance is a revenue and not a regula-
tive measure. but it has never been
made clear to the people of Nevada
whether their University town licenses
prostitution for revenue only or for a
notice to parents to send their children
