KNIGHT MINES MAY
SELL CLOSER HOME
Knights and United States Com
pany Have Exchanged
Propositions.

1t Is no longer secret that Jesse
Knight aud the officials Of the United
States Smelling, Refining g. Mining
company are trying sincerely TO get TO-
gether on deal by which the company
mentioned will corral the Colorado and
Iron Blossom properties, and perhaps
the Tintic smelling plant as well And
as far as known here, the United States
company has the field entirely TO IT.
self, II is pretty well understood that
certain eastern interests, which have
been negotiating with the knight peo-
pie, have thrown up their hands, but
whether temporarily or permanently re-
mains 10 be seen.
Several weeks ago the experts for
tho United States company made an
examination of the Colorado and Iron
Blossom properties. and those who are
in a position to know state that these
examinations were gratifying even to
tho sellers, and the reports on reserves
and future possibilities came very close
TO the results gained by the engineers
for the eastern people who were spar
ring for the properties. The Knight
interests aud the United States com
pany have exchanged propositions, and
it is believed that the two proposals
are sufficiently close together to bring
about definite trade But these are
things, especially in warm
weather.
Assistant Managing Director Lyon,
and Metallurgical Director Prosser, of
the United States company, have been
in Salt Lake City for several days, and
their visit here happens nicely to fit
in with the theory that their company
and the Knights are closely approaching
q common ground in the way of a

FISH PONDS.

If Professor Dyche succeeds in
convincing the farmers of the state
or large part of them who have the
requisite facilities at hand, that a fish
pond on their premises will be of quite
as much value to them and their
neighbors as many of their varied en-
terprises, his services as state fish and
game commissioner will be of untold
value to the people of the common
wealth.
His idea in this respect is a novel
one for these parts but that does not
lessen its value. 1t demonstrates that
there is a possibility of developing the
department of which he is now the
head to an institution which will be
of benefit to the whole people of the
state and not to the handful of them
who are able to find sport in fish
ing and hunting.
AS Professor Dyche so we'll said in
an interview with him of the other
day: 1.-The existence of well stocked
ponds all over the state would be of
immense food value to the people, -
How true such condition of affairs
would be of the present day when all
kinds of meat are selling at fancy fig
ures? Most people are fond of fish If
they can get hold of any. Its nutri-
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1909-12-06

tive qualities are great and it is a
most welcome change from more
or less steady diet of meat.
There are no indications that the
price of meat will ever be much lower
in this country than it now is. The
chances are it will keep getting high
er and higher. So If Professor Dyche's
suggestions in this regard are follow
ed it will not be many years before
the people of Kansas can practice
considerable household economy by
calling on their fish ponds to make
their food supply.
No reason exists either why such
ponds should not be sources of con-
siderable revenue to their owners.
The number of fish that will live and
thrive in a small body of water is
surprisingly large. In the course of
few years after the establishment of
one of them. the yield of fish that
would be ready for the frying-pan or
the oven would be much larger than
any one family could use. regardless
of its size. The surplus would find
ready market in the immediate neigh
borhood of the pond at prices that
would more than recompense the own
er for all of his trouble In keeping it
up.
Professor Dyche has pointed out
another way in which Kansas can take
the lead and show the other states of
the nation desirable path to follow.
1t rests with her people whether or
not they take advantage of it. If
they do not they will only be taking
a considerable slice off their own
noses.

FOR a REAL STATE FAIR.

There is already good reason for en-
couragemept and enthusiasm over the
probable realization of the plans of the
Give wires of the rejuvenated Com
n,ercial club for the establishment of
an annual agricultural fair in Topeka
which will actually be of state magni-
tude. These plans, in brief, call for
the organization of a corporation which
will start business with a capital stock
of $20o,o0 And such a sized company
ought to be able to promote the enter
prise in handy fashion.
Except apparently in state legislative
circles, about everybody in Kansas re-
Allies the necessity of the creation of
state fair, if this great common
wealth is to take advantage of all of
her many fine opportunities. 1t almost
passes the comprehension how Kansas,
foremost as she is among the agricul-
tuDal states of the Union, has gone as
long as she has without a real state
fair. The extremely great value Of such
institutions to agricultural states is rec
ognized on every hand. They are pay
ing institutions, too, in variety OF
important ways which are we'll known.
They are also sel-sustaining after they
have been placed on sound footing.
The states that have expended hundreds
of thousands of dollars on them feel
sure that they have made the best pos
Sfble investments.
Probably the reluctance of the 1egis-
latures of the past to take the initial
steps to provide Kansas with such
fair as she should have has been due
to the controversies which have ex-
listed as to where the fair should be
located. Some of this reluctance may
also have been due to the fact that
none of the localities DESTROYS of this
honor have shown themselves really
capable of conducting a fair on any
thing like one OF state scope should be.
There have been several laudable eff
forts in this direction in Topeka and
other parts but all of them have fallen
far short of what a beginning for
state fair ought to be.
But if the present plans which are
being made here carry, Topeka will es-
tablish a fair that will be worthy in
every way of being a state institution
If this is the case. there can be no
doubt that when the state legislature
decides to create a state fair, its action
will be in the nature of a development
of the new Topeka project. Therefore,
every possible energy should be devoted
by every person interested in the project,
as all individuals in this vicinity should
be, to bring it to a successful conclu-
sion 1t will mean much to Topeka and
more to Kansas as the proposition is
nowise a local one.

ALDRICH IN THE WEST.

An interesting analysis of Senator
Aldrich's recent trip to the west with
some pertinent and wholesome COM
ment On the plans to provide this coun-
try with an adequate monetary and
banking system is contained in the fol-
lowing editorial from last weeks issue
of Harper's Weekly:
Senator Aldrich's reconnaissance of
the west has been interesting: interest
ing to him and interesting to the west.
He took a look at the west, and the
west took a look at him. Both, doubt
less learned a good deal. The senator
was wise enough not to talk tariff;
there had been others
What he did talk about was the
problem of monetary reform. and he
found the west interested and willing to
hear him with a surprisingly open
mind. AS we have said before, the
work of the monetary commission, and
it's recommendations, must be judged
on their merits, quite without reference
to ones opinions about the tariff or
ones feeling about the senator himself.

that the commission will consider very
seriously the advisability of setting up
some such establishment in this coun-

committed himself, the drift of his
speeches seems to be in that direction.
If such an institution is indeed to be

which throbs again and yet again,
Because of this undying art.
And they who wrote this song. they
gave
The world no conquest of their hands,
Ihey caused no battle flags to wave,
Iney trampled through no alien lands,
Iheir fame came not through women s
tears,
Nor through the heaping of their gold
And yet through all the bygone years
The simple song their fame has told.
So sing it softly, when the night
Filings shadows from the drowsy west,
For all it's measures, shadow-light,
With comfort and heartsease are blest.
And it may be to some fair star
Will float an echo of some strain
To tell the two who bide afar
They did not write their song in vain.
