LIGHTS FOR DOME.
Plan for Illumination Meets With
Approval.

The municipal advertising commission
of the Topeka Commercial club met with
the executive council Of the state OF
Kansas at the state house and received
the good news regarding the lighting
of the dome of the capitol building as
mentioned in last evenings State Jour
raj in which the state officials promised
to do all IN their power to help along
the plans Of the Commercial club and
IiEht the state house dome and grounds
according TO the wishes of the commits
sion.
strung with electric lights and clus-
ter of arc lights on the extreme point
of the dome We're turned over to the
state architect, c. NJ Chandler, with
orders to draw up the plans and esti-
mates al once. lie will finish them as
soon as possible and submit them TO
tho council.
The executive council made a sugges
ticn to the commission that sounds
good to them in case nothing can be
done at once for want of funds. They
suggested that the Commercial club pay
the cost of having the wiring done at
once and at the next meeting Of the
placed before this body fer an appro-
prIation-whiCh would be grained with
cut a doubt. This final course looked
favorable to the commission IN case
nothing else could be done.
The reason the executive council could
rot make any promises to the city at
:his time WAS because they claimed
they did rot have the funds on hand
for such expenditures. They all seemed
strongly in favor of such move and
commented on the beauty Of such an
illumination.
Since the article in favor of the adj
d:tional lighting of the streets of To-
reka considerable interest has been Ia
ken over the city and business men have
expressed their views favoring plan
as adopted by the business men between
seventh and Eighth avenues on Kansas
avenue, where they have placed large
arc lights every so feet with low cost
of only $40 per month. 1t IS thought
that other sections of the business
thoroughfares will take up the plan and
ccntribIte toward such a good cause
other cities over the ountry have ta-
ken up the street lighting idea with
fervor Columbus, o., is a mass of
electricity from sunset until IL O'Clock
at night ard the business men all agree
II at the lighting has livened the town
and incidentally increased their bust
ness. The following from The Municipal
Journal commenting on the work accom-
piIshed at Manchester Will give an idea
of the enthusiasm in the cast:

BINGHAM TURNED OUT.
Mayor Mcclellan PeremptoriIy Re-
moves His Police Commissioner.

New York, July Mayor McClel-
Ian today removed Theodore A. Bing-
ham from the office of police commits
sioner.
The removal was followed quickly
by the announcement that the mayor
had appointed William f. Baker, the
first deputy commissioner, acting COM
missioner, to succeed General Bling
ham.
Proceedings in behalf of an incon-
spicuous and almost friendless youth
brought about General Bingham's re-
moval from the police commission
ership. Commissioner Bingham's re-
fusai to comply in their entirety with
Mayor McClellan's order following an
investigation of the case of George b.
Duffy, a 10 year old Brooklyn boy, led
to the official deposition of the COM
missioner, announced by the mayor
Duffy's case was taken up recently
by Supreme Court Justice Gaynor,
who in scathing letters to the mayor,
asserted that the youth had been the
victim of police persecution, had been
freouently arrested without justif1ca-
ton and that despite Commissioner
Rinehan's knowledge of the youth s

DIR. Sanders spoke in his character
isticalIy able manner before large
audience. He said in part: THE his
tory of the United States is the history
of popular education. Four hundred
years ago the Puritans not only found
ed Harvard university, but also estab-
Hsh I'D a. village school in every hamlet.
The old Center church of New Haven,
Conn, had the custom of calling
teacher as regularly as it called a pas
tor We have inherited this love for
wide spread education, and are ready
to make sacrifices on Its behalf.
1.-The United States has reason to be
proud of her system of public educa-
ton. Japan may claim to have estab-
lished the most through-going system
Of education, ranging from the highest
university opportunities to those OF
the. Village school,; Germany may claim
to have developed the most scientlhc
of applied education; and England may
Justly boast Of her foundation for the
education of boys; but we are justified
as a people in taking pride in the
adaptation to the conditions caused by
the increase of our population: we
have developed intelligence and ma
tionaI resourcefulness
Kansas has a right to be proud Of
what she does as state for her young
people. Aside from the grade schools
and high schools of the state we have
three great educational institutions,
which take a foremost rank among
similar institutions in the country. In
my judgment we ought at some time to
make an advance in the directions Of
the steps which Iowa has taken, and
that is in combining these three in
situations under a single board of re-
gents and one chancellor, each institu-
ton having its own president, faculty,
equipment and interests, but working
IN wise cooperation.
But Kansas also has reason for TAX
ing pride in her private institutions
which are in significance second to
none. In them the great results of q
collegiate education can be secured
with certainty and little expense. The
graduates of such colleges as Wash
burn are to be found not only all over
the southwest but all over the country
i'm fact all over the world
Our colleges need to teach a vast
number of facts which men and
women should know, but a mission
also is to develop character and cul-
ture Prof. James spoke wisely when
he said that one principel result of a
college education was to enable one

An effort is being made by North
Parkers to have Larimer county di-
vided. If this is their desire there seems
to be disposition of east siders to
grant it and set off all west of the
Medicine bow range into county Of
its own. That part Of the county has
been bill of expense and if they want
Independence there seems to be a
to give it to them. In return
Larimer should get back the township
east of Berthoud which Weld secured
from Larimer years ago.
