citizen Of Kansas and Of the great
Middle West. Although offered a
princely salary by editors of Eastern
papers If he would move to that part
of the country he has preferred to
remain in Emporia, Kansas, amid the
scenes and associations of his youth.
He is editor of the Emporia Gazette.
and every once in while he has some
thing to say about the duty Of a man
to his native town. Here is a recent
article from his pen which is applic-
able to most any town Or city in
America:
THE man who buys his goods of a
raail-order house and expects his neigh
bors in Enporia to buy goods of him
or buy labor of him or to buy profess
sional service of him is economically
a leach. He is sucking industrial
blood out of the town and gives none
back He sends his profit out Of town
like Chinaman and has no more right
to a standing in the community than a
foreigner We are all neighbors in
dustrially in this town, and the man
who sends away for his goods Is not
one of us. He is Of another industrial
system and deserves no mans support
in Emporia."
In commenting on this statement by
Mr. White, the Home Furnisher says
that Mr.. Whites allusion to the China
;; man is a happy one. 1t is recalled that
one OF the chief objections to the
Chinaman's residence in this country
when exclusion was being discussed
was the fact that the pig-tailed person
spent very little money in the United
States, but.sent his earnings to China or
took them back there with him when he
finally returned to his native land
He came here not to be a citizen, but
to make money Off the Americans and
carry the money away.

the Chinanian buying these things in
China, because he has become accus.

they are not to be bought in the Unit;

THE CI IS COUNCIL.
Held Regut, ,nthIy Meeting Mon.
day Evening, March "a.

The regular monthly meeting of the
city council was held, at the city hall
Monday evening and several import
ant measures were brought before that
body for their consideration. =. The reg
ular budget of bills were considered
and allowed. -
Judge Duell presented his report for
the month of February which showed
but one arrest during the month. This
speaks well for the peace Of our city.
Ordinace No. 103 was presented and
read for the first time. This is an
ordinance regulating the license of the
theatres of our city. Heretofore the
license has been $500 a month and
this is an action reducing it to $500.
The license was shown to be too large
in proportion to other cities of our
class and the council are seeking to
make it right.
In persuance to application for bids
for the city hall and lot on which 1t
stands there were but two bids pre-
sented they being one from the Devils
Lake Journal offering s4750.O0 and one
from Herman Rutten for $3,27500
The council laid this matter on the
table for the TING being, with the in
tention of taking it up at later date.
1t is understood that the city fathers
are planning on more adequate quart
ers for the city hall, jail and fire de-
partment and 1t is with this end in
view that they are giving this matter
attention at meeting called for that
purpose.
An ordinance establishing grades of
a number of the streets in the city was
read for the first time. -
Alderman Dodge presented plan
for storm sewers for draining the en-
tire city, which plan was accepted by
the council. The plan is quite elabor-
ate and when the sewers are laid as
per the plans submitted there will be
adequate drainage for the city for
years to. come. 5.s--'
