Helen eould's Charities.

Helen Gould's methods are not
those of male philanth.opists like Car
negie and Rockefeller, who leave de-
tails to secretaries and simply sign
checks. There is nothing impersonai
about her giving. When she is SUI
ficiently interested to help any per-
son or Institution financially she visits
that person or institution. To the
various day nurseries Of New YORK
city she makes regular calls, chatting
with the matron. inquiring into the
needs of the house and taking peep
into the childrens room.

The Stamp Business,

In regard to the difference in the
allowance for stamps for the last
two quarters, the treasurer's Office
can easily account for part of it.
In my Office the stamps on hand
lasted until June 18th and my bill
for stamps was for trifle less than
one-fourth of the quarter.
Moses BLACK.
The above explanation was given
US by Mr.. Black and seems very
reasonable. These explanations are
due the public and they should be
given frequently. Many people get
the impression that there are large
steals going on at the court house
and these explanations should be
made to convince them that such is
not the case. With the same ex-
planation from the other officers we
can easily account for the difference
in the stamp bills of the 1st and 2nd
quarters-S4o and S8. However,
we think the county board did the
proper thing when they ordered each
officer to purchase their own pos
tage and present bill for same. 1t
gives them a direct line on the
amount used by each office.

The state supreme court in a de-
cision rendered Friday declared that
the Kansas Natural Gas company,
a Delaware corporation, cannot do
business in Kansas. The decisien
is sweeping, declaring that the COM

crate in the state. The company
was denied a charter by the state
charter board, but it went ahead
any way and spent several million
dollars in laying pipe lines.

GraffinS.

Grating seems to be the business
of about one-half of the people.
They peddle all kind of wares, cray
on pictures, pianos and anything
you want. These grafters always
stop at the best hotels, wear the best
clothes and always have plenty of
money and are not at all .miserly
about spending it. The crayon
picture CRATER goes from house to
house soliciting photos to be enlarg-
ed and in most cases secures an or
der and in about ten days his part
ner comes along and delivers the
enlarged photo with a frame and
breaks you loose from Sc to $40 for
the outfit which you can buy at any
store, handling such goods, for, not
to exceed s..
The piano graft is another great
annoyance. The agent will ship in
a cheap affair which does not cost
more than $3.50 and in many cases
the cost does not exceed sSIoo and
they will peddle them out to the
people at $3.50. They take them to
your house, upon invitation extend
ed by themselves, and have fine
performer along to show you how to
claw the ivory. Pretty soon they
have you signing up notes and they
leave you about the cheapest instru-
ment that can be made. They then
cash your notes at the bank and you
become the "suckor."
1t is Normal time again and the
book CRATER will try to graft the
teacher and the map and chart
CRATER will endeavor to graft the
school boards. We hope Miss Ben
nett will order these individuals to
keep away from the school house
and if they persist, have them arrest
ed for disturbing the peace.
We say to our readers, do not
permit any of the above named, or
any other CRATER, to remain on your
place (unless you want to get skin
ned.) Order them away and If they
persist in annoying you have them
arrested. Down with the CRATER
they are curse to any community.
We have stores, and merchants
who pay taxes, who will treat you
right. They are with you all the
time and are always ready to rectify
any kind of mistake. We say pat
ronize them. The CRATER only re-
mains in one community a short
time and never expects to return.
1t pays to buy from people whom
you know and you will always get a
square deal. Let the CRATER alone.

Rural Mail Costly.

AS the guide-book said of the
hotels, the rural free delivery is
expensive but good. 1t has cost
something more than twenty millions
year already, although it reaches
not more than one third of the rural
population, if any population can
properly be described as rural in
these utterly urban days, when the
telephone and the trolley bind the
country to the city, and practically
make, or are making, the whole
country concentration or bunch of
cities. Petitions for the extension of
this service pour in by the bushel.
There were nearly five hundred of
them in one week of last summer.
New routes are established at the
rate of about six hundred a month.
When 'every farmhouse is reached"
the expense will be at least sixty
millions of dollars, provided no
reduction of salaries is made; and
the salaries of officials have habit of
being increased, not diminished.
Rural free delivery is a good and
great thing, and it shows how much
Congress loves the farmers, for their
virtues, of course, and not for their
votes. - With the Procession"

LETTER TO E. R. COOK,

Dear Sir: You are so we'll known that the
people have put you in office. They knew
what they were about: they didn't do it by
accident.
Wouldn't it be handsome thing to do to
paint your house? 1t is a nice house, has q
good substantial commodieus look, and isn't
rusty at all, you know; but fresh coat of
paint would make it lcok so bright it's a
pity not to.
Devte is beautiful paint, but the beauty of
it Isl it lasts so long, and does so much more
than adorn an alrf ady interesting and at
tractive ed fee. House out buildings and
fences. There isn't man or woman in town
who wouldn't see them and make some pleas
ant remark.
OF course. you will paint the town property;
nothing would mark your administration
more, in the eyes of the people; and having
done the same thing at home, it is the most
ratural thing in the world to do it for them.
Yours truly
