KANSAS AND MASSACHUSETTS.

A Massachusetts man, the Rev.
Charles A. Crane, pastor of the Peo-
pies Temple in Boston, made a com
parison of the Sunfower state with
staid old Massachusetts which leads US
to believe that Kansas isn't so bad as
some other state after all, in spite of
its Burtons, It's Tom KeIIys, and its To-
cal rings. For these are the rare ex-
ception in Kansas. The Boston pastor
said:
"A spirited controversy is now rag
ing in some western papers over the
relative Intelligence of the people of
Massac husetts and Kansas. It is point
ed out that Kansas has more colleges
TO the population and that Kansas has
less illiteracy than Massachusetts
two to one. No section OF the country
represents a higher average of fntelli-
gence, no section buys more books or
sends more of its youth to colleges
than Kansas.
Let this pulpit call attention to
some other points in which Kansas Is
Tar in advance of this old common
wealth. In Kansas they make an out
Jaw or that which Massachusetts cod
dies and prOtects-the saloon. And
ms accounts largely for the demental-
Lzeu ana demoralized condition of at
Lalfs here which Is seen in our eIecting
d 1allbird to the board of aldermen
and putting saloon man in as mayor
me same low grade of mental and
moral quality is seen in the fact thar
/ our legislature has just enacted a law
/ for the aid and comfort Of a set OF men
who have been notorious law breakers
/ for years.
There may be much violation Of
I the laws IN Kansas, but she has hither-
! to been saved the disgrace of having
/ the state legislature enact a law for the
j benefit of criminals. What Kansas
+ spurns and curses with the authority Of
the state constitution and the laws.
Massachusetts, hugs to her bosom. The
vice factory which Kansas labels as an
/ outlaw, Massachusetts labels a great
: and desirable thing"
