THE STATES PAVING DEBT.

Still another legislature has ad-
| journed without paying the Topeka
| street paving claim against the state.
| The claim got further this time than
| ever before-it was reported on the
floor of the house and the appropria-
ton for it passed by that body.
Then the senate refused to pay
the debt. The state of Kan
sas has just accepted from
the national government a sum fifteen
times as large as the Topeka claim and
which was an older debt and which
the government was no more obligat-
ed to pay at this time than the state
was obligated to pay the paving claim.
A score or more of house leaders
from both parties and all factions, in
explaining their votes for the appro-
priation, declared that the debt was
an honest and just obligation, and in
common decency should be paid. They
took the ground further that the state
should be just as honest as it required
its citizens to be.
The facts that the claim is twenty
two years; that it was charged and
currently believed that certain lobby
lists were to receive twenty-five per
cent of the claim if it went through
and the other fact that graft was
charged in the original pavement all
worked against Topeka's demand for
a refund from the state for work that
the state surely ought to have paid
for years ago. This also with the 9TH
er fact that this legislature had bur
dens of it's own and did not want to
add to its appropriations. thousands
of dollars to pay debts which should
have been paid long ago-contenting
itself with not repudiating the claim,
but with allowing $4,000 to cover re-
cent paving
Topeka also cut its claim in two
from $63,0o0 to $4,000. big cut,
but without avail.

USE OF THE RECALL.

The operation of the recall in Los
Angeles has forced Mayor Arthur c.
Harper to relinquish the office of
mayor. Mayor Harper saw the hand
writing on the wall and gracefully
withdrew his name from the ballot. In
this way be avoided the humiliation
that his defeat might have occasioned
but he nevertheless furnishes a shin
ing example of the efficacy of the law
as applied to cities.
The recall law is a drastic one but
it is essentially Democratic. A few
years ago it would have been called
radical Populistic measure for it was
the Populist party that first declared
in favor of the reform. Now it is con-
sidered as a step in the direction of
good government and an exemplif1ca-
ton of the doctrine that The People
Shall Rule.
The recall recognizes the potency of
the people. It makes the public SER
want directly accountable for his pub
lie acts. If he is remiss in his duty
or if he fails to his trust or if his
administration of the municipality is
counter to the sentiment of the COM
munity, he must answer before the bar
of the people. If they approve his
administration he retains his office. If
they disprove he surrenders the refns
to another.
There is nothing out of harmony
with the Republican form of govern
ment in the recall. 1t may act as an
incentive to public officials to do their
best but there is no good reason why
they should not answer to the people
at once if they fall below the public
standards of municipal government.

ToPEKA.s GROWTH.

Most interesting and encouraging to
Topekans are the statistics Of the fed
eral census bureau relative to the
amount of building done in the va
rious leading cities of the United
States during the past couple of years.
They show that while Topeka ranks
one hundred and eleventh among the
cities of the country as regards to
population she stands in fifty-third
place in 1908 and in ffty-ffth place
the year before in the particular of
building activities.
This is undisputable confirmation of
the fact which has been apparent to
discerning citizens that the capital
city of the state of Kansas has been
enjoying a healthy and vigorous
growth during the past couple of
years, a growth of the kind that is
material and substantial, a growth
that counts. Several of the cities of
the country with twice as large a pop
ulation as Topeka have enjoyed far
less in the way of building activity
than has this city. This fact tells it's
own story. These cities are not grow
ing at the rate that is Topeka. If
Topeka was not growing she would be
no records of this sort in the
the world Of building, for new build
ings, residences and business houses,
are about the last things undertaken
in any community on anything of an
extensive scale if it is not developing
in size and strength.
There is no good reason, however,
why this city should not grow. It is
Ideally located in a particularly
healthful cline. From a business
there are few cities of the
size and even larger, which have such
excellent and many transportation IA
There are few towns on the
face of the earth where the environ
ments for business enterprises and for
homes are better. Facilities Of every
sort are within her confines to make
business profitable and the establish
ment of homes desirable. It is one of
the educational centers in this section
Of the country. Its public school sys-
tenn is unsurpassed. There is a church, |
4 fine one, for every creed.
In fact, If there is anything that a |
modern and up-to-date city should |
have, Topeka has it and also many
,hings that other cities do not have, !
such as wide paved, tree and park |
ined streets, which are incompar-
able. That the city should grow is lit !

BIames the Women.

you society folk are the persons

say, even at the risk of being consider
ed ungallant, that the women among
you are to blame more than the men -
Charles Burnham. manager of Wal
lacks Theater and president of the
Association of Theater Managers of
Greater New York, in bringing that
charge. caused more than a buzz of
excitement among the magnificently
goWned and richly bejeweled women
who attended the thirty-third recep-
ton of the Entertainment Club of the
Waldorf-Astoria. Heads were quick
ly brought together, whispered re-
marks were hurriedly exchanged. and
for a moment it looked as if there
indignation. Mr.. Burnham, however,
continued in a milder tone, and the
crisis was passed safely.
Mr.. Burnham, in beginning his ad-
dress, referred to the unhappy lot of
the theatrical manager generally, but
more particularly when he tried to
present clean and decent plays, while
the public was clamoring for indecen-
cy and uncleanliness.
But who is to blame for this state
of affairs? Every self-respecting man
ager would like to be a Henry Irving
or an Augustin DAILY. But New York is
town of sensations. Let word be
passed that something broad or indel-
lcate is DelnS presented in theater,
and the whole city runs wild about it,
while some play of merit-bright,
good, but without a sensation-has a
hard struggle for existence, and nine
times out of ten is laid on the shelf.
"If the woman did not patronize
these shows, they could not exist, for
women are leaders of men, and always
will be in the matter of things theatri-
cal. Therefore I say that women in
society are more to blame for the
present shocking state of affairs than
are the men

public toward decent and indecent
