KANSAS COMMENT
CIARENCE IA. MATsON.

Kansas Journalism lost one of it's
ablest and most conscientious writers
When Clarence II. Matson let the edi-
nal last week TO seek In California
climate and in changed occupation a
return to health.
For the past ten years MT; Matson
has been connected with the State
Journal, first as political reporter and
later as editorial writer. In both po-
sitions he has faithfully and consc1en-
tlously worked for clean ponies ana
life. ana the effects of his writings
have been felt all over the state.
Mr.. Matson had a wide acquaint-
ance throughout the state ana was
well versed in the history of Kansas
politics and Kansas politicians. To-
gether with this knowledge. he
brought to his work high sense OF
newspaper mans duty to the public,
and his writings were sane. truthful
presentations of the topics of the day
from the standpoint of man who
believed in the square edal. He stood
for the right things in Kansas politics.
But it was not alone as political
writer that he was known. Every
Saturday he took text from the
Bible and preached sermon to MS
theological sermons. but sermons
which told of a practicable, possible,
everyday Christianity-the kind a man
can use in his life if he is to get the
most out OIL his lhe. anu tl1S hiiu 4iO
must use if he is to give his best to
the world. And these sermons went
into thousands and thousands OF
homes each week. He had larger
audience every week than any one
hundred preachers in the state. and
his sermon reached many man VINO
never went to church. The influence
of such a writer is sure to be great.
Outside Of his editorial work he oc-
casionally found time to write special
articles for some of the leading maya
zines of the country. His work was
frequently seen the Saturday Evening
Post, Golfers, Review of Reviews and
other magazines. 1.-THE Popui1st
Movement in Wall Street." was the
title of his latest article. in the Satur-
day Evening Post of october 10.
1t was the privilege of this writer to
know Clarence Matson during the
time he has been connected with State
Journal and to him Mr.. Matson
stands as the highest type of newspa-
per man. use the term newspaper
man" because Mr.. Matson would not
stand for the word Journalist" as
applied to himself. but contended that
he was only newspaper man..
The Chronoscope regrets exceeding
ly that Mr.. Matson must leave the
state, and hopes that his health may
be rapidly improved and that he may
return to Kansas and again take up
his pen, which he has SO faithfully
used in the interest of honest politics
and clean, upright living.-Larned

~ TO the holding national banks and other
institutions which own large blocks. 1t is
now evident that only a small portion of
the S2SO00,OO0 of the bonds still Outstand-
ing at the time of maturity will have been
presented by July 10, which is the date set
for the return of $50, 900, eco of government
deposits held by the national banks. The
effect on the money market of this I'M
evenly balanced transaction is a matter
for consideration in view of the slender
surplus resources of the New York banks.
The premonitOry demand for currency
from the south to move the cotton crop
has made itself felt by the New York
banks and the approach of the period for
the harvest of winter wheat crop points
to another coming requirement. Crop
news has been favorable during the week,
especially that of winter wheat and also
of corn, but the publishing of tile govern
ment report on the condition Of cotton as
on June % threw into the speculative
situation the prospect Of an unexpected
shortage in the cotton crop and incidental
ly diverted a furious speculation to the
market for that commodity.
Activity in the iron and steel trade is
reported well maintained and reports of
railroad net earnings for May show hand
some increases over those for May of last
year. Copper securities have moved up
ward with the intimatiOn that negotiations
were pending for the settlement Of differ
ences between producers and sellers which
might be expected to break the deadlock
existing. Sentimental influences which
have been felt i'll the market were the
revival of the discussion of possible war
between the United States and Japan,
which has been a material influence in
foreign markets and the belief that the
report of the interstate commerce commits
sion on the Hartman investigation would
be presented at an early day. with the
effect of reviving the consideration of the
government activities against corporations
and their bearing on securities.

WESTMINSTER WORSHIPERS CLOSE
TO NATURE AT EVENING SERVICE

by the Ieafy bushes and shrubs that sur
round the garden, and with the cool sum-
mer evening breezes playing gratefully
about the congregation, the evening ser
vices were held. The pastor explained
that during the summer months every eff
fort would be used to make the cOngre-
cation comfortable during the services,
and that the garden meetings would
not be infrequent in the future.
Speaking upon the subject, ''True Pa
triotism,' Rev Mr.. Mcintyre declared
that several tendencies of the present day
are being so rapidly developed that the
American people must return to the basic
principles of patriotism upon which the
nation was founded or run into danger
of national ruin.
These tendencies are growing so rap
Idly that we hardly take notice of them
until they become so great as to defy
correction he said. "One is the danger
of mob law or anarchy. Those who feel
that their rights have been trampled upon
should take a true patriotic stand instead
of dropping down to mere mob rule to
rectify right. Another danger is the
war between corporate wealth and labor.
When one class will insist upon getting
the most work out of another class for
the least pay and under the most unfa-
vorable conditions, then it is certain that
strife will ensue.
There will be forming of class hatred
and contempt, and no one knows what
the end will be. The settlement of this
growing danger can come along lines of
true patriotism and that way alone Let
the man of capital and the man of labor
meet upon the common ground of hui
mdnity.
Another great evil or tendency toward
evil in the present day is the desire to
secure something for nothing. This will
some day bring ruin upon the land. It is
not the true principle of patriotism to
get something without any constructive
effort being put forward, but there are
too many people, here in Salt Lake and
abroad. who feel that this getting some
thing for nothing is right
These evils, as well as the disrespect
for the law by the so-calleG powerful
and similar things can all be eradicated If
we but stop and think of the meaning of
true patriotism and allow it to guide our
actions"

Scottsdale, July 5.-(Special Corre- glorious Fourth of July passed off very quietly at Scottsdale. The children en- joyed a little fireworks display in the evening.
 Scottsdale was pretty we'll represent ed at the celebration in Tempe yester- day. Some Who had planned to gu were kept at home by irrigation water.
 We understand that Chaplain Scott was the only speaker who was on deck at the celebration. You can generally count on Scottsdale. She is in her place when the time comes.
 We understand that Mrs. Underhill will not occupy her house here this summer as she expected to do.
 MT. Graves who rented the Underhill property came earlier than he expected to, and he expects his family this week. They expect to make their home here for some time.
 Chaplain and Mrs. Scott expected to leave Thursday eve for California to spend the summer.
 Mir. and Mrs. w. Hayden and family with a freezer of cream helped the Nanderhoofs to spend their ninth we'd ding anniversary very pleasantly June 30.
 The usual number of Fourth of July drunks were in evidence at Tempe. Some people don't seem to think they can celebrate without a good jag on. Some of our Indians were among the bunch.
