not believe that such letters represent,
the real sentiments of the people Of
Kansas. I have not had a single letter
written in the handwriting and on the
asking me to favor the parcels post law.
I'm my opinion, the passage of the
parcels post law would be one Of the
worst disasters which could happen to
the people OF Kansas. It is a law, cal
culated to draw money away from the
state to the big city department store,
and to tear down and destroy local en-
terpriseS and small merchandising con-
law would give q tremendous impetus
to the business OF the mail order con-
Germs.
I'm congress, every member who rep
resentS large city is for the parcels
post law and yet it is claimed that the
parcels post law is intended wholly to
aid and benefit the farming con1muni-
ties far removed from department store
centers. Throughout the east and west,
the congressman who represent commun-
tiles such as mine, where there are no
large cities, are opposed to the parcels
post law. 1 don't know how the KAN
sas congressional delegation will line up
on the matter when it comes to an is
sue. So far the proposition has never
been able to get that far. but it is GER
tain to come to an issue sooner or Ia
ter.
Mr.. Bristow's proposition to adopt a
limited form of parcels post, by allowing
mail matter to be sent at very low rates
from the town where the rural route
starts is one which naturally arouses
some suspicion. In itself, it is no doubt
innocent, but it is a dangerous matter
to undertake for there are SO many
ways to avoid and evade the strict pro-
visions of such a law.
1.-The postal currency, or post check
system, is closely allied with the
parcels post scheme. The mail order
houses would like to have such a law
enacted because it would supplement-
the parcels post law so perfectly
Mr. Campbell refused to say any

QUESTION ABOUT A DEED.
S. w. WiIder's Transfer to William j.
Bond Being Tested.

The suit of George e. Sabine against
William J. Bond is being heard in the
district court by Judge Dana.
Sabine wishes to have a deed set
aside which was made by S. w. Will
der, conveying a house and lot and an
S0-acre farm to Mr.. and Mrs. Bond.
The heirs of the estate, Sabine and
Mrs. B. F. Criswell. wish the deed set
aside, and they allege that Wilder was
not of sound mind and that undue in
huence was brought to bear upon him
to make the deed. Wilder was in
feeble health and almost totally blind
for several years. He was boarding
and rooming at the home of the Bonds
when his health became impaired. He
grew feeble and blind and was finally
totally helpless. Mr.. and Mrs. Bond
cared for him. Wilder paid some
small sums to them and out of graft
tude for their kindness, so the Bonds
say, he decided to them a short time
before his death the property with the
understanding that the consideration
was their kindness and the agreement
that they would care for him as long
as he lived. He grew much worse and
lived but a short time after the deed
was made. E. w. Poindexter, J. H
Norton and M. NJ. Miller witnessed the
making of the deed by Wilder.

SATURDAY CLOSING.
The Jones Dry Goods Co. State Their
Position on the Matter.

In the State Journal of today the
Jones Dry Goods Co. publish over their
own signature the reasons why they
are opposed to closing their store on
Saturday nights during the summer.
Mr.. ReWick, the manager of the Jones
store, when interviewed today regarding
the matter, said: THE article in Fri
days State Journal failed to state the
main reason given the committee for
not closing their store at o'clock on
recting any niSconceptfon that may
have been caused we decided to publish
the statement above referred to.
THE statement has been made that
the Jones company give their clerks a
vacation of one week and would not
close on account of that concession
THE first and principal reason given
the committee for not complying with
their request was that the store now
conducted by the Jones company, has
for twenty years or more been trading
place for farmers and the laboring
classes, and now is more than ever the
wage earner's store, and as this class
of people are employed during the reg
ular business hours oe the day many
of them would be deprived of the priv
ilege of visiting the larger stores alto
gether if we were to close Saturday
evenings. This store is in way a
public institution, and as such we feel
that it is our duty to place its advan-
tages within reach of all the people.
THE matter of giving our employees
vacation was spoken of. and as the
Saturday closing was sought, in the in
terest of the employees, we mentioned
the vacation matter to show what we
j, were doing voluntarily for the welfare
of our employees.
1--WE have since learned that ours is
the only Topeka store, with possibly
one exception, where the employees are
given summer vacation with full pay,
and I am of the opinion that if it were
left to the employees themselves to
choose between Saturday night closing
during July and August, or a vacation
of one solid week on full pay, they
would choose the vacation.
Our employees know also, Just what
our position is relating to closing on
holidays. They know that we close on
six legal holidays during the year and
there is no element of uncertainty ABOUT
it.
1.-The $50 closing for five evenings of
the week which goes into effect on
July 5th is simply in line with the Jones
policy of extending to their employees
the utmost consideration consistent
with good store service and their duty
to the public.
THE question of Saturday night clos
ing is after all a matter for the indi-
vidual stores to decide for themselves
In many of the larger cities, certain stores
tcaering to a high class trade close at
noon on Saturdays, and their customers
are not greatly inconvienced by this
custom. But in these same cities are
other. stores that close at six O'Clock
and still others that remain open until
10 o'clock or even later, all dependent
upon the class of trade each store seeks
to attract. The conditions are not ma
terially different in Topeka

officials.
missioner Garfield in the Standard Oil
investigations, which was started by
Congressman Campbell's resolution in

Campbell said:
Il am informed that Mr.. Garfeld's
report will be ready by the time con-
gress opens 1 am unable to say what
progress is being made, but 1 antici-
pate that the report will be of great
value.
''The question of whether a combine

F'settled by congress. The only thing
for Mr.. Garfield to do is to get the facts
to show that these trusts exist L
believe that Mr.. Garfield is a thorough
ly honest and high-minded man, and
will do his duty
Speaking of the death of Secretary
Hay, Congressman Campbell said:
In the death of Hay, the government
loses one of its most valuable servants
There is no doubt that Hay was one
or the most competent men that ever
held the position of secretary of state
and it will be hard to fill his place.
- Congressman Campbell has recent
~ written a letter to one of his con-
stituents concerning the parcels post
proposition, in which he says that he
expects to fight the proposed parcels
post law with all his strength.
Il have been getting letters said Mr..
Campbell, from half a dozen different
people, urging me to support the parcels
post law. The letters are all the same;

to be filed in with the address, and
