Establish Fiscal Agency in Topeka.
One of the important bills consider
ed and recommended for passage by
the senate Thursday night was the
Quincy bill establishing a state fiscal
agency in the city of Topeka. This Is
for the purpose of enabling cltles'
tricts to pay their interest and deliver
their bonds here at home, instead OF
sending the bonds and money to New
York. 1t will result in a considerable
saving to the municipalities.
Senator Waggener made hard fight
on the bill. He said 1t would in1ure
the value of Kansas securities. be-
cause people outside the state would
not want to invest in securities not
payable at New York.
Senator Quincy and Senator stew
art both stated that they believed that
Kansas would buy all its own bonds
from this time on. Senator Quincy
said:
ssThere are more New York bonds
being sold in Kansas than there are
Kansas bonds being sold In New
York"
Senator Stewart said: 1--WE nave
passed a tax law exempting from tax
alton Kansas bonds, owned by people
of Kansas, and this, 1 believe, will
make a tremendous demand for Kan
sas bonds right here at home"
The bill as passed does not interfere
with all the outstanding bonds, made
payable at the state fiscal agency In
New York. 1t merely provides that in
the future bonds shall be issued pay
able at the state fiscal agency in To-
peka. 1t may be 20 years or so before
Kansas will entirely dispense with its
fiscal agency in New York.
Antitrust Bill Recommended
The changes in the antitrust law,
which are desired by the attorney gem
eral came near getting q jolt in the
neck last night in committee of the
whole. The bill was prepared by the
attorney general for the purpose or
strengthening the antitrust laws.
The bill was reported as judiciary
committee bill. After quite discus
sion the senate recommended it for
passage.

arrived here during the week
from the Riverside, Calf, Indian
school where he had been look
ing after the welfare of some
Indians that had been removed
from the Moqui reservation near
here to that school some months
ago. These Indians were the
leaders of the "hostiles" at the
Moqui schools and who gave the
government some trouble last
winter. Mr.. Perry says they are
giving no trouble now. Evident

look for any more rebellion
among the Moquis now that
they understand that they must
