The Topeka state journal., 1906-03-01

A description of President Roose-
velt and his administrative policy that
will be enjoyed by the large number
Of the State Journals readers who are
railroad men, is contained in the clos
ing paragraph of Cy Warman's article
IN the March number of the World
Today on 1.-The President and the Rail-
road" Mr.. Warman is himself a rail-
road man. or was until he abandoned
the rail to take up literature. He IN
derstands the language of the cab and
that is what he uses in this sketch Of
Roosevelt:
1.-THE president is an optimistic and
daring driver. He uses a lot of throt-
tie, but you will never catch him
hanging the monkey wrench on the
safety valve. He keeps his pop open
and when there is a surplus of steam
he let's it fiutter out through the dome
and waste its holiness on the desert air.
He rather enjoys a fly run, but he
knows enough not to work steam on
a down grade And when his helpers
get to pushing him too hard, he throws
a little air into the pipes and holds
/ them on the curves for he knows that
while they are really and truly help
ing him over the hills, they would
ditch him if they had a show. And
that is precisely what he will never
give them-a show. He has right Of
way and his running orders from the
sovereign people, and he means to
make the run to the best of his ability.
He may be expected to crowd the card
at times. but he viii keep his hand on
the throttle and his eye on the rail
with only an occasional backwa r6
glance to see if they are all coming.
Barring washouts and broken rails. he
| is almost certain to arrive on the ffc1x
| Of time, but he will not be nrshed ;,

AIIRERAn IEAGUE.

Topeka is swinging far away from
Reform. Plans are on foot there hoi
the organization of Liberal lea8ue'
with a membership Of 1900 sympa-
thfzers with the violation OF the pro
hfbitory law. The objects will be TO
enable the violators Of the law 70
work with greater harmony TO BOY
colt svoWedly temperance merchants
to support by their trade merchants
who are members of the league, ana
to systematic the handling OF "hush
money" 1t means, in brief, that the
men who do not believe in prohlbltlon
intend to come out hereafter ana say
so; and shows a great change II SEN
timent in Topeka. A few months ago
the suspicion that a man favored
league like this would have Followed
IN him getting his windows srnasEieo'
-Atohison Globe.
It is possible that there are two
thousand people IN Topeka who 90 not
believe in the prohibitory law as
law, but it is scarcely possible that
there is any such number that sym
pathize with the violation of the law"
Not believing in the law and sympa-
thizing with its violation are entirely
different propositions. A man might
not believe in prohibition for various
reasons and still be a good citizen, but
no man can sympathize with the Vio-
lation Of the prohibitory law or any
other law and still retain any claim to
good citizenship.
There have been good public Off
ciaIs who did not believe in prohibition
as the best method of handling the
liquor evil, yet they have been most
severe on violators of law. Governor
John A. Martin was such a man. and
Judge John Martin was another. Sym
pathizing with the violation of law is
nothing more than sympathizing with
anarchy. and the State Journal does
not believe there are one-half of two
thousand people in Topeka who sym
pathize with anarchy.
All talk about a boycott by such an
organization is foolish, for it would be
bound to react. The great majority
of the people of Topeka would resent
such a thing so forcibly that no busi-
ness man would dare to endorse an
organization proposing such a boycott.
The issue that confronts Topeka just
now is a question of decency against
vice, and respect for law against the
violation of law. 1t is far broader
than mere belief or disbelief in pro
hibitiOn, and the State Journal does
not believe the temper of the people
of Topeka is such that it will endorse
even by silence any organized effort to
proIong the reign of vice and lawless-
ness in the capital of Kansas.
The Topeka state journal., 1906-03-01

A considerable amount Of misfnfor-
nation is floating around the state
about the size the ba1lot will be next
fail. The Atchison Globe says it will
be as large as a four-page Globe IN
folded, and the Globe is an eight-colunn
paper.
AS a matter of fact. the ballot will
be about two-thirds as large as one
page Of the Globe, providing there are
as many ticket columns On the ballot
as there were two years ago. The
chances are that the PopuIist column
viii be cut out
So the ballot viii probably be one
column narrower and several inches
shorter than two years ago. It viii be
shorter because the 1ames of president.
vice president and ten electors win not
be on this year, and they were on two
years ago. The state ticket win carry
a state printer and one more supreme
court justice than two years ago. but
on the other hand there will be no con
gressman-at-large or state senator on
the ballot. The county ticket viii he
the same size as heretofore. The town
snip ballot is on an entirely separate
sheet, as are also the constitutional
amendments and any local propositions
that may be submitted. Instead Of be-
ing as large. the general ballot next
fail viii really be the smallest we have
e7-r TIad since we adopted the AustraI-
ian system.

KANSAS CONAENT


Rich folks often act like they owned
the earth and they sometimes do pret-
ty near own 1t, but II q man or a Wo-
man is a natural born fool or is moral
y cancerous. riches only serve to en-
phaslze these facts and make them
notorious. Millionaire Yerkes support
ed beautiful young woman who was
not his wife, and built her a mansion
OF marble. His wife was SO mad about
1t that she would hardly go to see him
die, although he left her the bulk Of
MS 1ll-ga1ned millions. Now Mrs.
erkes shows that she has so little
sense that it is not much wonder that
ner husband chased after other women.
He was scarcely buried until she Sc
cretly married a soft-h eaded young
squirt named Miner, who bought her
loads OF candy and JeWelry and had it
charged, to be paid for out of her
money, besides buying everything he
could see for himself on the same
basis. When the bills began to come
in, the old bride fiared, the honeymoon
was at an end and the groom had to
hike out. We all struggle for money
and We sometimes get to thinking that
money is really the main thing; but
money makes misery about as often as
1t makes happiness Some of the best
people IN the world have won wealth,
but such conditions as the Yerkes af-
Ialr illustrate, are by no means un-
common IN swell society, and 1t serves,
and should serve, to make US common
rolks more content, and more appre-
ciative of our own blessings, and to
teach US that the very best things of
life are within the reach of those who
have no great amount Of this world S
goods. How much sWeeter, happier
and better than the mad existence of
these millionaires, for instance, is the
humble life on a. farm or in a. country
town, where a wife honOrs her hus-
