GRAFT IN KANSAS CEMETERIES
Interesting Document Fashioned by
OHiciaI Ordered to
Investigate.

At the last session OF the Kansas lcgis-
lature the secretary of the State Horticul-
tural society was authorized to investigate
the matter of cemeteries and the alleged
CRAFTS in their management. The report
Of this official has been made public, and
II is indeed interesting document. The
opinion expressed in the report is that the
larger cemeteries are mostly CRAFTS" and
that exorbitant charges are made for in
terments.
1t is shown that in the case OF most
cemeteries cheap lands are purchased some
identifying is done. and then the land is
cut up into lots that are sold at the highest
prices the public will stand. II is pointed
out that people usually buy cemetery lots
at a time when their dead are awaiting
burial. and when they will mot bubble
or dicker, and the cemetery people profit
by It," And that this profit is enormous
is demonstrated by figures based upon the
rates made by Greenwood cemetery, Brook
Ign.
The Kansas investigator refers to the
law of that state. which allows each town
ship to own and plat a cemetery. the lots
to be not less than 7xl4 feet. and that such

most without precedent This way and
that. obedient to the will of the captain,
the Lombardia lodged. Sometimes it was
full speed ahead. Again the vessel slowed
down, and still again 1t was full speed
astern. Ever the waterspout menaced
threatening now from one side and now
from another. 1t was of unusual size and
was guided by no law OF progress, but
moved in unexpected directions, keeping
the steamships commander guessing.
The officers and crew OF the Lombardia
all declared that the waterspout was one
of the largest they ever saw. Captain
Orengo very modestly declined to take any
credit to himself for saving the ship. He
said that the waterspout was never much
closer than half a mile, and that while its
course was somewhat erratic the vessel
was never seriously menaced. just before
the spout collapsed he had ordered the
ships gun trained upon 1t, and was about
to command the gun crew to open fire in
the hope of stopping it.-New York Times.
Omaha daily bee., 1906-09-23

a lot must sell for 81 "If we take an acre
of ground" says the report, containing
$50 square feet, and allow one-haf Of 1t
for roads and paths, we have left 21,S0O
square feet; divide this into lots contain
ing ninety-eight square feet, and we have
222 lots. which. at 81 each, bring S222" But
none of the larger cemeteries sells lots so
cheaply. One such lot 7x14 feet will hold
six adult graves. and in Brooklyn each such
lot brings $500, or $lSS,9 800 for half an acre.
The Topeka cemetery, according to the re-
port, charges 800 for a good lot 10x20 feet!
half acre will make 100 such lots, which
brings the income from half acre of
land to $I0900.
In conclusion, the secretary of the State
Horticultural society makes a plea for pub
licly owned cemeteries. He also endorses
public improvement associations. They
could also form a protective association"
he says, ito defend sufferers from the ra-
pacity of the funeral director. the grave
digger and the tombstone merchant. What
rabbits we are in the presence of the ceme-
tey official, the funeral director with his
greedy hack drivers and the monument
seller. The whole business draws too much
blood. Why not call halt? There are
trusts in these lines as well as others
