NO WESTERN LEAGUE HERE.
Little Likelihood of Topeka Graduating
Into Higher Glass.

The following dispatch from Writ G.
McCarty, sporting editor of the Rocky
Mountain News of Denver to the State
Journal was received this morning;
Western League may take in Topeka
and Wichita. Denver is favorable To
peka. must guarantee to finish season. -
The question of taking Topeka and
Wichita into the Western League has
been discussed many times and il is well
known that all the clubs in the Western
League are favorable to the addition OF
the two Kansas towns as it would do a
great deal towards lessening the ex-
pense of the long jump to Denver and
Pueblo.
The telegram was shown to Herman
Grow, one of the owners of the local
team this. morning and he expressed
himself very favorable to the scheme.
We would like to get into the Western
League all right said Mr.. Crow, but
we are under an agreement to stay with
the Western Association for five years.
It would require us to pay a forfeit of
s. 600 or we must have the consent Of
three-fourths of the teams in the league
which is next to impossible

LOST BOTH HIS EYES.
But George Harper's Case Was Thrown
Out of Court.

George Harper an employe Of the lola
Portland Cement company. who lost
both eyes, an ear and numerous other
parts and organs in an accidental ex-
plosion Of dynamite, Is having a hard
time getting any damages for the acct
dent He sued the company In the
Allen county district court for $40, 600
and Judge Oscar F'oust after hearing all
the evidence he had to offer, knocked
out his case on a demurrer.
Harper claims that he was employed
in the gypsum quarry blasting out rock.
A big chunk lay on the ground which 1t
was desired to break to pieces with a
charge of dynamite. Harper was set
to work drilling a hole In this chunk.
It turned out that somebody else had
drilled into the rock, and put in a charge
of dynamite ready to touch Off, but Har-
per did not know this until his drill cut
into the former charge. Then there was
something doing, and Mr.. Harper came
out total wreck. He states in his petit
ton that he will be cripple for life,
and the list of injuries which he gives
seems to fully justify that conclusion.

TO KEEP OUT FIRE SALES"
I1mporia Council Passes an Ordinance
That Is Being Tested.

Emporia, Kan. Sept. 2T.@For the
purpose of keeping out fakirs and fire
sales in competition with the regular
merchants of this city, an ordinance
was recently passed by the city coun-
Gil for the protection of home mer-
chants. 1t imposes an occupation tax
Of 81 on nonresident merchants doing
business in the city, and an additional
tax of $25 per day for violation of this
ordinance. Wednesday D. Endleman,
manager for the Cleveland Clothing
company, which has opened a store on
Commercial street was arrested. He
offered the city clerk $40 for the privi-
lege Of running his store four days.
This was refused so he attempted to
sell his goods with out permission Of the
city officials. He was arrested and his
arrest was followed by the arrest of a
clerk left by him to run the store
while he was out obtaining bail. So
far he has failed to get any one to go
on his bond. and has wired for a law
yer from Council Grove. Endleman
says he will carry the case to the su-
preme court and have the ordinance
declared unconstitutional. The mer-
chants of the city are behind the city
officials, and declare they will raise
money enough to carry it as far as II
can be carried.

FOR A new FAC TORY.
A Denver Concern Plans to Move to
Topeka.


For some months past the Interna-
tional Improvement company, Of Dem
yer, Col, concern which is interested
Colorado and throughout Kansas has
been looking for location in eastern
Kansas for the erection of planning
mill and sash and door factory. such
mill IS needed by the company to
provide the materials for houses which
II mas under contract and in sight.
The officers of the company were at
one time considering the advisabilfty
OF estab liShlllg the mill here in To-
peka, and talked the matter over With
the officers of the Commercial club
One objection raised by the officials of
the company to locating here was the
high tax rate and it is probable that
the company will build It's mill in Law
renee, that is if the people of Law
renee will subscribe for $25, 900 worth
Of bonds of the company. The plans
OF the company are to erect a mill at a
cost OF. between SIP, 900 and $4,000
and it guarantees to employ a force
whose pay roll will amount to at least
$500 month for a period of al least
five years from the beginning of the
operation Of the mill, which is set for
May 8. 1907
Active efforts are being made by the
comm ercial interests of Lawrence TO
have the business men of the town
subscribe for the $4,000 worth of
bonds, which the company insists shall
be taken before it decides to locate
there. These bonds are guaranteed
with six per cent interest.

KNOCK OUT LONG LEASE.
Claim Is Made That signature Was
Forged.

A little difference of about 100 years
in the length Of a lease is the cause of
an interesting lawsuit which arrived in
the supreme court today on appeal
from Stafford county Charges OF
fraud are made against one NJ. B. Sun
bury 1t is claimed that Sunbury
forged the name of Irene Richardson
to a number of contracts. among them
a contract for the lease of a quarter
section of land in Stafford county. The
lease gave Sunbury the exclusive right
to use the quarter section as a. hunting
preserve. It was drawn uD on Feb.
10, 1902, and Irene Richardson claims
that it was to run until Feb. 10. 1903.
The lease itself, however, shows that
it was to run until Feb. TO- 1899. The
amount paid by Sunbury for the lease
was 500, and while there was noun

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

D. o. McCray has written a long
letter to the Kansas City Star defend
ing his record as a member of the
state text book commission This let
ter was sent to the. Star yesterday by
registered mali, and was published
Mr.. McCray denies the charge
made by the Star that he is the book
trust lobbyist. He says that Harris
lied when he charged him with being
a lobbyist. Continuing he says:
THE basis for these charges against
me, made by INSCRIPTIONS creatures. is
a letter purported to have been writ
ten by me to the American Book
company over thirteen years ago
about the local school. board election
in the city OF Topeka. This was four
years before the legislature passed the
law creating the school text book
commission, and, consequently four
years before my first appointment by
Governor Leedy. That letter, written
by me as private citizen, holding no
official position. bears every evidence
of having been 'doctored1 To fur
Their deceive the public and to injure
me the date of that letter was elini-
mated in its publication in the Kansas
City Star. That letter was one Of in
formation which any reputable news
paper man or lawyer would write, and
for its writing I have no apologies to
make.
In the issue of the Times of the
oath you say: The prices allowed the
trust have been high and, in certain
instances, exOrbitant.' The inference
to be drawn from this statement and
from other editorials in the Star and
the Times, is that the former text
book Commission fixed the prices of
books, and thus awarded contracts to
the American Book company at prices
higher than those offered by other
publishers. This also is false. The
state uniformity law fixes a maximum
price on every book used in the schools
of Kansas, and a text book commits
sion can not award a contract above
that price. These prices are from 90
to 40 per cent below the prices
charged for school books in Nebraska
Missouri. Iowa and other neighboring
states and about SO per cent below
the prices paid in Kansas before the
state uniformity law was enacted in
| 1897 This splendid law has been OF
| the statute books of Kansas nine years
/ and it is clearly within the bounds OF
truth to say that it has saved to the
| people of the state in that period one
million dollars.
Il deny as utterly false the statement
/ that l am or have been a lobbyist OF
4 the book trust, and 1 repeat that Colo
mel Harris or any other person making
/ this charge against me eth er directly
or by innuendO is giving currency to ar
