THE SHAME OF KANSAS.

New York Sun: The great heart
of Kansas throbs gustily once more.
There is wrath in Lyon county. An
ger fills all Emporia, which sits above
the waters of the navy blue Neosho.
The cause of the passion Is old, the
Oldest cause In Kansas. Only the
occasion is new, and new without
ultimate novelty. The merchant
princes have again offended. The
outlying and far flung strongholds OF
Emporian civilization of Olpe and
Elco, Of Americans and verdigris,
they have put fresh blots on the
'scutcheon of Kansas.
The crime Of the captains Of in
dustry of this larger share of Kansas
almost defies description. We quote
with trembling lips the fatal words
of the Gazette:
The fact can no longer be con-
cealed that no hundred dollar year
pledges have yet been received from
Hon Sears. Hon Roebuck,, Hon.
Montgomery Ward or any millionaire
mail order merchants, who are vital
" interested in the Improvement OF
the roads in the neighboFhood as
WE'LL as Kansas generally.
The mind Of the mere fastener
might easily wander from the crime
to the circumstances, might easily
pause astcunded before the thought
Of a fair country and falrer city
guarded and served by roads which
all afford millionaire mail order
merchants" but let him march on
firmly resisting all temptation to
stray. There is more to seek:
1t seems all the more unaccount-
able because the merchant princes
are apparently determined to increase
their business in this vicinity. The
town and country have recently been
flooded with pamphlets and circulars
describing phenomenal bargains In
overalls and prunes that they are
offering.
swifter than Jersey Justice, more
summary than the vengeance Of the
melodfama, is the fate that pursues
the merchant princes Of this favored
land. To be rich in Kansas, to be g
merchant prince in verdigrls or . rob
her baron in America, this is an evil
thing. Of sin sinful. Of pitch pitehy;
but to be filled with the damnable
desire to keep. to hold, to retain the
untold millions Of shameless aecu-
mutation, this Is 70 be beyond mercy
ana outside the precincts Of pity.
They would have It, these merchant
princes, who refused to come
across." This is the sentence Of the
court:
The only explanation Of the failure
Of the merchant princes TO contribute
TO the road fund is the fact that they
have a great deal Of worry on their
minds They are being sued in many.
