KANSAS DAY.

Next Sunday will be Kansas forty-fourh
birthday. She is rapidly nearing the half
century mark, yet, she hasn't gray hair and
grows more beautiful every day. Indeed,
while she is as big Gin geographical stature) as
she ever will be, she has really only begun to
grow. Each year adds some new charm, which
greatly increases the admration not only OF
her own people, but of the world.
Kansas always was beautiful, even before
she had name. Her broad undulating piai-
ries, covered with waving green grass and dot
ted with countless millions Of bright hued
flowers, with here and there stream winding
about like ribbon and ringed with trees, was
a sight most beautiful TO contemplate. Direct
" there were evidences of civilization. Here
and there the hardy pioneer would erect rude
cabin of logs of sod, and would turn over
the virgin sod and plant the first crop, which
soon produced food for the pioneer, his family
Off he had one) and for his team This was
an added feature OF beauty. And later, these
same prairies became dotted over with little
towns, far apart. Then, other settlers came,
and titled the soil and brilt homes. Larger
towns grew up. Railroads came, bringing
more people to 'the center of the world" and
then the state increased in wealth and beauty
and importance with leaps and bounds.
Of course, Kansas had her ups and downs,
her trials and tribulations, but she was never
cast down or discouraged, but, while she almost
burned up with feIer Cor hot winds) at times,
and was drenched to the skin and lost her crops
by floods at other times, she kept smiling
face, and went bravely to work preparing for
another season.
Kansas is away toward the head Of the col
unn as wheat-raser. Few states have beaten
her in the production of corn. She produces
tine finest horses, CATTLE hogs and sheep on
earth.
But, we might go on aud fill columns
describing the beauties and advantages of Kan
sas-the theme is illimtable. We could tell
CT the discoveries of coal, of lead, of zinc and
other minerals; OF salt, of gypsum, OF ochre,
of hundreds of other articles of industry and
commerce. We could tell of TIE hundreds of
factories that give employment to thousands of
people. And we could fill columns telling
about the discoveries OF natural gas and petro-
leum, which have already added millions to the
wealth of the state, and will add untold mil
lions more. We have barely begun the discov-
cry of these things. Already, Kansas is known
all over the nation as an oil producer, and it
will be but very short time until she will lead
in this respect.
Kansas can now feed the world and she will
soon be able to light the world.
Kansas is sthe center of the world" All eyes
are turned toward her, and she will yet astonish
the nations of the earth

TRACTION COMPANY
SUED BY BLOOMERs

For damages in the sum Of $4,000
for the death of their brother, John
Bloomer. who died from the effect OF
injuries alleged to have been sustained
in collision between his hack and a
street car on Lake avenue south last
September 1. Anna Jane Bloomer OF
this city and Isabelle McNichols OF
Terra Haute, Ind, are suing the street
railway company and the case is on
trial before jury and Judge Dibell in
district court.
The sisters are the next Of kin to
the decedent and they further allege
that the traction company did not ex-
ercise reasonable diligence in equip
ping the car with a proper head light,
Another contention is that the motor
man in charge was incompetent and
drove the vehicle at a rate exceeding
fifteen miles per hour, which is the
maximum velocity established by a
city ordinance.
Miss Ann Bloomer testified for the
plaintiffs during the afternoon and
stated that her dead brother, who re-
sided with her and was engaged in the
livery business, earned from SO to So
per day. She said that the livery sta
BILE is now conducted by nephew and
the receipts of the business are about
$40 per month less than during the
regime Of her brother.
The witness further stated that the
business has suffered because of the
loss Of the hack which was demolished
in the street car accident
