1t will hardly be realized by the
people of Kansas that one OF the
plain people has actually beaten
the politicians. And it surprises
them to know that F. D. Coburn,
secretary of the state Board of Ag

by every farmer of the state, has
been appointed to succeed Burton,
who resigned. Gov. Hoch was
hauled and pulled by the political
bosses of all the gangs, but this
time he gave the plain people a
show and unknown to anyone he
named Coburn, and with such a
man our state will be represented
by a second Plumb = no mans

and Kansas good, not politicians.

passed into history, taking place
Sunday & Monday.
On Sunday the Gym was well
filed to hear a fine sermon by
Rev. Estcy of Topeka. In the
afternoon he made a pretty adj

Monday at II the Gym was
again we'll filed to witness the ex

With all the talk of the Catho-
lies being against our Normal
School, and by Legislators that it
seemed foolish to locate state
educational institution in this Cath
ohc community, it was surely graf
living to the friends of the school
on Monday to see Father Richard,
pastor of our Catholic church, to
open with an appropriate prayer
the Commencement exercises of
our State Normal school, the first
IN the new gymnasium and the
first graduation under the new 3
year term. And in that audience
no one knew any sect OR creed.
In fact our school knows no
creed and our catholics are already
furnishing it some of It's brightest
scholars. And our Russians from
all over the county are realizing
that it IS splendid place to school
their children.
