consideration the interest of the peo-
pie, the needs Of the treasury and
to so shape the legislation that suf-
ficient revenue would be produced to
pay the running expenses Of the gov

I'm this connection it was impera-
tive to give due consideration to the
fact that deficit Of about 60 mil

while doing this 1t was the desire
Of many Of us to make such reduction

American people. believe that Con-
Rress, in the law Just enacted, has
provided for the needed revenue and
at the same time has made over
seven hundred reductions, none of
which in1ure any American industry.
In enacting the tariff law the interest
Of every section necessarily had to be
and was duly considered.
There we're fourteen schedules in
the law and all Of them were most
carefully considered in the House
and Senate. There are many provis-
ions in the act would gladly have
seen changed, but the bill as finally
agreed upon was the best which could
be secured under all the circum-
stances and is admitted by all to be

While the situation in this respect
is accentuated here, because of Wich-
ita's rapid rate of growth, something
akin to it is to be seen all over the
West. The two-cent fare has had
something to do with this excess Of

ers are women, and the spring which
keeps the machinery in motion is
their capacity for social visiting. In
the old days a son at a distant point
might revisit, perhaps twice in his
life, his parents and the old home
stead. He lost personal touch with
his cousins, and often with his broth
ers and sisters. Now families living
far distant from one another keep
in close touch. Every wife has a
circle Of relations she visits with
more or less regularity. She would
feel herself open to criticism If she
neglected brothers and sisters, and
while she is at II she includes first
and second cousins In the annual
round. And those she visits, return
the compliment. And it is Just az

HARTMAN.

The West lost mighty gooe
friend when E. H. Hartman passed
away. He was the only man to CON
troll the Union Pacific who operated
it on the plan of making 1t pay BY
making it a good road. The Gould
plan is 70 make 1t pay by letting the
road go to the dogs and keep all
possible out of the inccr!e. llarri-
man put the money back into the
road and the Union Pacific is one
of the most wonderful roads in the
world. 1t is as good out across the
barren desert of Nevada as 1t is in
Eastern Nebraska and Eastern Kan
sas. 1t is run on a business b:sis and
when a road is run that way 1t means
that a big Drained man is at its
head.
Had Hartman lived he wound have
made the Union Pacific yet greater
railroad. It may be that Hartman
v as too smart for Wall street, but 1t
don't worry the west for the money
came out here where it did good and
the West knows that Hartman was
its friend in making better railroads
and giving better service.

HARRIMAN,s MILLIONS.

What was the amount Of Harri-
mans personal fortune? Unless the
Probate Court can answer this ques-
ton satisfactorily 1t probably will
remain a mystery and a problem Of
guess and of speculation, One Of
tn, New York newspapers states LAat
Harriman's personal fortune is any
where between 5000 100000 and
$500, 900 600, but all estimates are
largely guesses. 1t is known, how
ever, that Hartman was the largest
owner of railway stocks and securi-
ties in the world, and, in addition
that he owned stocks in many pros
porous banks, trust companies, IN
surance companies and steamship
lines.
In 1870, when he organized tine
Wall street firm of Hartman Co..
he was rated by many as million
aire, but then, as now, no one knew.
AS much as, " no more than, any
other man who lived, Hartman kept
his personal affairs to --imself. His
raj bank was the Union Pacific Rail-
road, which, at times, had fully $780,
900, 1000 in securities in its treas
ury, and oftentimes nearly as much
cash. Over this fund Hartman had
full authority, but II was never known
how much of the railroads money
and how much Of his own he was
using in his large transact. ons. In a
recent report the interstate commerce
commission assumed to list his per-
sonal holdings Of railway securities
at S156,O6O.OOO. That, also was
guess, for the commission did not
know how much Of the listed stocks
actually belonged to Hartman. His
estate at Arden, his country home, Is
valued at about s4,OOO,O00,

KANSAS ADVERTISING.

this great and aroused people we sol
EMMY protest against the gigantic
sacrilege lately printed in the Kansas
City Journal:
1.-THE Chautauqua Is now only a
sort Of summer vaudeville, a strictly
business proposition, which appeals
to sensational and morbide elements
| OF human nature" No; this is, in
deed. too much; too much for a free
people who have long looked toward
Kansas as toward a door Of hope.
Recognizing, OF course, that the Kan
sa. City Journal is only an organ OF
unrighteousness printed in Missouri
for Kansas consumption, we are still
unreconciled; the horror OF the
thing still overwhelms US. Consider
the further impiety: There is no
place for the careful and thoughtful
statesman IN this place of violent
words. Only the reckless purveyor
of nerve-tingling oratorical stunts Is
wanted by the managers Of chautau-
uuas." In the name OF humanity,
culture, the higher life, let us have
done with this. Has Bryan bled, La
Toilette reared, the great Joe Folk

a misguided nation soon sink back
to representative government, Can
nonism, the dead hand Of Eastern do
mination, II the prize of the platform
is denied? There is no end to the
deep damnation of this horrid thing.
1t is only generation ago that the
summer season in that great green
house, that splendid dollhouse of
moral movement the Middle West
was wholly given over to eternal
pleasures. Where now LaFollette
leads; where the stern-voiced Stubs
insurges; where Cummins sounds

where then to the unenlightened
myriads the tanbark clown made RI
laid Jest today the voice Of Murdoch
calls to higher life; where anciently
the sldeshow prospered with its un-
improving devices today the gospel
of sweetness and light is preached by
intellectual giants-by Bryan, Hoch,
Buchtel, by LaFollette, Folk, Cum
minis. Shall we return to the circus
of our fathers, turn back to the
clown Of antiquity, when the present
holds such progressives? We guess
not. Looking hopefully across the
ancient Appalachians, we listen for
the voice of Kansas. From the fruit
full plain watered by the classic Kaw
to the beautiful blue Neosho, we look
for the ultimate reputation of this
shameful sacrilege, this oamnable as
sault upon education, liberty and the
income of progressive statesmen,
Wichita is awake. Salina is stirring
herself, and thou, too, Emporia, thy
world traveller is again in thy insur-

INJURE SCHOOLS,

Proposed Legislation Is
Strongly Opposed
By W.C.T.U.

The W. c. T. U. OF Hawaii has taxi
en- a determined stand against the
proposed raising OF the school age to
eight years, and also against the re-
duction of teachers salaries.
The following petition was pre-
sented in the House by Representa-
tive Hubby:
We, the undersigned, respectfully
petition and ask;
First: That any bill shortening
the compulsory school age of the
children of this Territory be not
passed.
Second: Legislative action tending
to reduce school appropriations, to-
wit: the lowering of teachers salar-
les, or the failure to provide accom-
modations for children OF school age,
be considered menace to the well
fare of the citizens of this Territory.
The statistics of the public schools
of all lands show:
First-That there is n direct ratio
between crime and education. Re-
duction of the public school is inev-
itably followed by the expansion of
the prison and the poor-house.
Second-That social progress and
political welfare both stand in dl-
rect ratio to the length OF the school
life of the child, and to the efficiency
of the school system.
