Wear Bronze Button UnlawfuIIy.-
One of the general statutes of Kan
sas provides that it shall be a misde-
meanor for any member of the Grand
Army of the Republic who has been
dropped from the rolls or who has
been honorably or dishonorably dis
charged to continue to wear the lit
tie bronze button, and the officials
of that organization are going to try
TO break up this practice among old
soldiers. The department commander
took the matter up at the state en-
campment and is still discussing it..
The law provides that an act such as
Commander Morgan discusses shall
be considered a misdemeanor, and up
on conviction the guilty person shall
be punished by Imprisonment for a
term not exceeding thirty days or a
fine not to exceed twenty-one dollars,
or by both such fine and imprison-
ment.

BANKS MUST HAVE A PLAN.
Opponents Of Guaranty Declare II I'm
perative to Meet Conditions.

Topeka, Kan.-Whether bank guar
anty is right or wrong in principle, the
fact remains that it is being rapidly
adopted over the Central West. Last
year only one state had bank guaran-
ty-Oklahoma. Now four have it
Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Nebras-
ka. Advocates of the idea say that it
soon will cover the entire country.
Conservative bankers see no hope
in checking the wave right awav.
They believe that in due time the prin-
ciple will go to pieces on the financial
rocks, but while it is a popular idea
the conservatives say that something
must be done to protect those banks
which do not go into the state
schemes. If the states of Texas, Ok
lahoma and Nebraska will not permit
the organization of insurance COM
panies, such as Kansas national banks
have organized to insure deposits, then
It will be up to congress to give ma
tional banks the right to participate in
the state guaranty scheme.

A handmade cigar fresh from the

who formerly smoked 10c cigars now
smoke Lewis Single Binder Straight
&C. Lewis Single Binder costs the
dealer some more than other sc cigars,

TAFT CAN DICTATE
PEACE TO NATIONS
sARTHoLD MAKES STRONG PLEA
FOR ARBITRATION.
Ambassador Bryce Says 1t Is the In
terest of the Nations of Both
Hemispheres to Preserve
Peace.

Lake MohOnk, N. 4.-Wltn an ar
ray of speakers, the fifteenth annual
meeting of the Lake Mohonk confer
ence on international arbitration con-
cluded it's deliberations last night.
That President Taft had it in his
power to end all wars, was the declar-
alton made by Congressman Bar
tholdt. He said:
"If the president of the United
States were to say to King Edward
and Emperor William, Let us keep
the peace, and in case of any trouble
between either of our three countries,
let us not draw the sword until we
have had an investigation by an i'm
partial third party" and those two
great monarchs were to grasp the out
stretched hand, what would be the re-
suit? 1t would signify the end Of
war.
People Would Applaud.
1--WE must give organized express
sion to the popular will. We must
satisfy Present Taft and the major
ity of the American people will ap-
plaud, and the great heart of the ma
ton will beat for his new policy OF
emancipation. There should be a
peace organization in every congress
sional district to make its influence
felt with all the candidates for the
national Legislature. These district
organizations should then merge in to
state organizations and finally into a
grand national body whose power and
influence will tend to shape legisla-
tion along peace lines and make rep
resentatives, senators and even presi-
dents, sit up and take notice. And,
permit me to say, as far as | know, of
the state of the public mind in the
sonal contact with their representa-
tive men, no monarch could or would
reject an American offer of any prac-
teal peace agreement"
Mr.. Bryce said, in part:
Peace, Nations Duty.
"All the nations of both hemis-
pheres have every possible reason for
endeavoring to keep the peace. In
terest, as well as conscience and duty,
prescribe that course. Nevertheless,
when we remember how often before
governments and nations that had
every interest to keep the peace, al
lowed themselves to be drawn into
war, and how disproportionate its
causes were to the real interests in
volved, we cannot be sure the same
thing may not occur again and we ask
once more, why is it that good resolu-
lions are so often forgotten
"One of the answers most often
given is due to the newspapers, which,
when disputes arises between two
peoples, are accused of misrepresent-
ing the purposes and sentiments OF
the other people.
1T is not my business to defend the
newspapers. But in the interest OF
truth and justice, it must be asked
whether they are to blame. In every
country the newspapers reflect the
wishes of the people and are what
the people make them. So, If the peo-
pie wish the newspapers should show
a truly pacific spirit, friendly to other
nations, then the newspapers will
give their readers facts and opinions
which will at any rate not hinde:
peace and not inflame passion. Thus
we come back to the people who are
| the ultimate masters both of the gov
eminent and the press"

Record for Alfalfa Seed.-A Garden
City dealer recently paid $2,631.15 for
one wagon load of alfalfa seed That
is perhaps the largest amount ever
paid for a wagon load of products
from the farm. When the local paper
printed a story about it, Secretary F
d. Coburn of the Kansas board of ag
riculture, could hardly believe it. He
Immediately took steps to ascertain
the facts. The seed was produced on
the big Menke alfalfa ranch, in the
Arkansas valley, near Garden City.
Determined to break all records for
high priced load of country products
Colonel Dallas, manager of the ranch
piled 1878 pounds of alfalfa seed on
one of his big wagons and hauled 1t
to town with six horses. This was
equivalent to 1883 bushels, or a trifle
under ten tons. The seed sold for IS
a bushel. Kansas has now passed the
million mark In the number of acres
of alfalfa. Not until eighteen years
ago was alfalfa considered important
enough to justify Secretary Coburn
in giving it place in his statistical
tables.
Can't Get Rid of Rabbits.-Western
Kansas counties have paid out SO
much money as bounty on rabbit
scalps that they have about decided
to quit it. Over $4,000 scalps have
been turned in to the clerk of Finney
county and $4,000 have been paid for
by Edwards county. The rabbits null
tiply faster than the hunters can kill
them.
State Rifle Shoot June 21.-The
dates chosen for this years rifle shoot
for the Kansas national guard are
June 81 to rs. AS usual, the shoot
will be held on the rifle arnge at Fort
Riley. Medals and other prizes will
be given to the best marksmen in the
various events, besides which the
Kansas team to represent the state
at the national rifle shoot will be
picked out. Each company in the
state is to send its three best shots
as determined in local range work, to
the state shoot. Other expert rifle
men in the guard who have qualified
according to the rules laid down are
also eligible. These experts will be
formed into teams Of three, and will
be the shooters in the sharp-shooters'
course.
PAYS More for Beets.-The sugar
company at Garden City has drawn
I'D its contracts for beet growers to
be used this season and the signing
up of contracts will begin in a short
time. There will likely be no delay
about the closing up Of the contracts
this season as the contracts are even
better than those Of last season and
practically every contention OF the
growers. made before signing the con-
tracts a year ago, has been met by the
company with out any demand being
made for them by the growers this
season.
