Ing.
Governor Buchtel was in fine fet-
tie. fresh from his trip to California
and he delivered one of the most
powerful sermons ever heard by those
who sat within the sound of his voice
His theme was the all meaning words
that open the greatest of all prayers.
the Lords prayer, "Our Father" 1t
was mastery, impressive discourse
and touched the hearts of all.
Governor Buchtel announced that
In order to free the church from all
Indebtedness and dedicate 1t free
of any financial obligations 1t would
be necessary to raise $1.740, the
unpaid balance on the cost of the
church. AS is well known there are
but few men in the country quite
so efficient in raising funds for church
or educational purposes as Governor
Buchtel and in a short period all OF
the 81. .740 had been raised.

catory services were Rev. j. Q. Yer

1t was an ideal dedication and the
fact that the weather was threatening
all day did not detract to any extent
from the complete success of the exer
cises or have any material bearing on
the attendance. The members of the
Clifton church and their energetic
pastor are to be congratulated upon
their work in erecting the pretty
church.
Few villages in the country of even
much larger size than Clifton can
boast of such a splendid church edi-
fee and that edifice free Of all In
debtedness. The membership of the
church, while not larg in numbers is
strong and faithful and is certain to
grow in numbers and in influence.
Governor Buchtel was accompanied
by Mrs. Buchtel and they reached
Clifton on Saturday afternoon. Sat
urday evening a large audience heard
the governor in his lecture, "Roose-
welt the Man" at the church.
On the four O'Clock Midland train

Mrs. Buchtel returned to their home

The continued cool weather coupl-

the growth of the first cutting of al

that the later cuttings viii be up to

Wire Frame

successful;
Wire Frame
Three wires are necessary to con-
struct a wire frame, edge, brace and
tie.
Cut number of pieces of tie wire
about one inch long. Four pieces of
brace wire twenty-four inches long
these are the foundation wires.
Straighten the four pieces of brace
wire perfectly starlight before begin
ing work. Cut two pieces of brace
wire twenty-four inches long for tip
and head line. The average head
size is eighteen inches; sixteen very
small and nineteen quite large.
Twenty-four inches allow six
inches for tapping. After measuring
eighteen inches lap the other end to
that point and tie with tie wire at
both ends Place front and back wir-
es, then cross diagonally by two
other wires, and last the wire which
forms the sides. Tie firmly in the
middle. Place top wire and tie at each
foundation wire. Bend the wire down
to form the side crown.
The next wire placed is the head
line. Slip head line wires up after
they have been bent down. Tie two
inches from top forming the side
crown; tie TO each foundation wire.
Bend them out to form brim. The
edge wire is then placed. allowing
six inches for brim in front. Five
inches are left for side and three
Tor back. When placing edge wire
bend the foundation wires over the
edge wire towards the headline and
out again. Allow all wires to lap
from the two diagonal wires in back
Place as many wires as are necessary
at regular distances apart tieing at
each foundation wire. Clip all ends
OF wires closely.

People who come to Kansas from
states having 2-cent fare wonder why
they have to dig up three cents per
mile when they hit the Kansas line.
Many have not yet been informed that our
foxy republican state senate decided that a
man who can not buy 500 or 1000 miles
at one time, does not deserve reasonable
rates. Perhaps when every other state
in the union adopts straight 2-cent fare
law, Kansas will follow. Under the
present regime, Kansas can only follow
and she is humiiatngly slow at that

Regardless of who 'Eed" in the Har-
rman-Roosevelt controversy, the cold,
undisputed fact remains that millions of
dollars were contributed to the republi-
can slush funds in the last three presi-
Dental campaigns and the will Of the peo-
pie defeated thereby. This fac. alone
should dethrone the republican party, for
a party elevated to power by mllionaires
cannot serve the people, even though
few of the better element Of the servants
thus elected are disposed to break away
from their environments. The several
tits between President Roosevelt and
the millionaire u. S. senate have already
established the truth of this statement.
The senate always won the victory and
the president was compelled to recede
for the sake of party harmony.

JUGGLING CITY ACCOUNTS.
Lincoln (Neb.) Citizens Kept In the
Dark as to the Cost of Their Street
LIGHTS.

Dark as to the Cost of Their Street
Lights.
Lincoln. Neb., is getting an unenvia-
Bic notoriety through the attempts of
It's officials to make it appear that its
expensive municipal electric plant is
supplying arc lights at Il low figure.
In the report of the city auditor for
the seven months ended March 81,
1906. although some of the elements Of
cost were omitted, the evident intep-
ton was to give fair showing. But
unfortunately it was shown that the
cost ($73.6S year for lamps burning
only $3.50 hours was larger than the
contract price for lamps supplied by
private companies in neighboring cities.
This was unsatisfactory, of course.
Accordingly in the annual report for
the year ended Aug. 81, 1906, there
was deliberate omission Of deprecia-
ton and interest charges on that part
Of the plants cost not covered by bonds
$2lGJl or one-quarter Of the total
construction cost. Apparently, also,
the lighting schedule had been reduced
to keep the cost down, as the report
'hoWs that the lamps burned only l,99G
hours during the year. BY these de-
vices the cost was reduced to 5000.
Soon after the appearance Of this re-
port the mayor gave out in newspa-

Thirteen years ago Marshall, Mimi,
Installed an electric light plant at a

when it must be entirely renewed or

been paid, there is no sinking fund, and
no allowance has been made for depre.

ments as follows:
while we are not prepared at the
moment to advocate private ownership
or public utilities, we can only admit
what is patent to every intelligent per-
son-that no city council will conduct Il
public power plant with the same bust

When old Zach Taylor came into the
presidency, persons in Washington
soon began to tell him there was one
public servant the government couldn't
do without. They said they had come
TO express the hope that the old gen
eral and rather inexperienced preSi-
dent would permit them to inform him
OF it. This piece of Information and
advice was Systematically dropped into
his ear at frequent intervals. At first
he paid little attention to it, but finally
took note Of the fact that Il certain
John Hobby, who for twenty odd
years had held the important Office Of
assistant postmaster general, was the
official the government couldn't get
along without. The communications
became so frequent that one day as
the last man disappeared old Zach
broke out with this question:
Captain Harry, who in the devil is
this man Hobby everybody is saying
we can't get along without"
The general was informed about the
official.
I'VE must attend to the case at once
We are liable to be in trouble about
him any day. We must be prepared.
He is liable to die on our hands and
then the devil will be to pay. Seems
to me the man who can't be spared is
the one to turn out while the govern.
ment is in a condition to meet the
emergency. Turn Hobby out. Captain
