I,o45-lb feeding steers; Dyke
Bros, who bought 2 a loads
of heavy feeders, and G. w.

up a trainload altogether. All
these farmers live in the vicinity
of Montgomery City. THAT is
one of the good feeding districts
in the state" remarked A. B.
Hensley. 1--WE feed all the time
down there. The price of feed
has little to do with our feeding.
That is one of the old and thick

as do a great many other feeders

In these times of high priced

Disgusting to Reputable Demo-
Gratis.

That the policy of certain "Old
Guard (or odd Gang" as Gov
Folk calls them) newspa-
pers and politicians to criticise
without reference to the facts,
everybody and everything in con-
nection with the administration
of Governor Hodley is disgust
ing to reputable Democrats of the
state, is clearly shown in the
case of State Hospital No. 1 at
Fulton. A Democratic newspa-
per in Lafayette county thought
it would be a smart thing to
make an attact upon Governor
Hadley for the appointment of
DR.. George Williams a. superin-
tcndent of that institution, on the
ground that he was not compe-
tent. AS DR.. Williams had been
endorsed by all of the physicians,
Republicans and Democrats alike,
in Lafayette county, and a re-
garded as one of the leading ply
sicians and citizens of that coun-
ty, the article was received with
marked disfavor by the people Of
that community.
In addition to that, Col. Bob
White of the Mexico Ledger, one
of the leading Democratic editors
of the state, expressed the senti-
ment of the decent Democrats in
an editorial denouncing this criti-
cism and giving the facts. Col.
White is a member of the board
and. in company with Mr. Here
ford, another Democratic MEM
Der, were active supporters of DR..
Williams, whose selection was
made by the unanimous vote of
the board. The management of
the institution under DIR. Will
liams has, as Col. White says,
been equal to that of any of his
predecessors.

Hadley and His Policies.

Certain "Old Guard" politi-
clans are seriously worried now
adays to know what to do in ref
erence to the general progress
sive policy Governor Hadley has
inaugurated.
When he called the conven-
ton at Sedalia to take up the i'm
portant question of preventing
damage by floods and retaining
swamp lands through the organ
ization of local associations, the
"Old Gang" leaders we're at first
disposed to make fun of the
movement. But when the meet
ing was held and five or six hum
dred thoroughly representative
delegates from o5 of the ia
counties of the state appeared at
Sedalia, these Democratic politi-
clans made haste to climb into
the band wagon and to approve
of the movement.
When Governor Hadley start
ed in to investigate and to call
the attention of the people of this
and other states to the undevel-
oped of Missouri, GER
tain Democratic politicians COM
menced to assert that Missouri
did not need advertising. But
when he presented facts showing
that only one-half of the terrific
~ of Missouri has ever been
touched by a pillow share; that we
have greater stores Of minerals
beneath the surface of the earth
than have ever yet been devlop-
ed; that we have 100000 acres
of forests, all of which await the
home-builder and the investor,
there was a sudden end to this
campaign of criticism of the gov
ernor's progressive policies. The
reception accorded him by the
people in different sections of the
state he visited, together with
the approval of the leading Dem
ocratic newspapers of the state
have left no question as to how
his administration is being re-
garded by the people of the state.

er. Hartman looks a little the best,
but Standard is hitting so well that
1t will be hard task for Jones to
think of letting him go. Mag is do
ing well at second, but Standard can
also play that position in good style,
so there is another mixup.
1t is a mighty pretty race for the
jobs and the boys are certainly show
ing Jones all the baseball they know
in their efforts to make good. One
outfielder has got to go, but who it
is no one here can guess 1t is prob
able that one of the veterans will be
sold. There is also one too many
catchers, so if some club needs good
backstop, President Burke can deliver
the goods. And pitchers-here is an
other rub. The whole staff, which
consists of three moro Fingers than
will be carried along during the sean
son, is showing up well. :
There will be no wedding out until
season has opened. The men that
cannot be used are too good to SIM
ply be turned loose, and so the man
agement will make an effort to place
the surplus material. Things are GER
tainly different than they were last
derfully minus infielders of ability.
Now there are three corking men that
will have to be sold, traded or farmed.
And If anyone in Denver wants to
know how Pat Bohannan is coming
along, just tell them that he is show
ing up in great shape. 1t is doubtful
if Pat ever did enjoy such good form.
He is certain to make good.

TO OPEN IT RIGHT
Topeka Should Celebrate Open
ing of Ball Season.
Pueblo and Wichita Planning
Inaugural Ceremonies.
MEANS MUCH TO CITY
Could Arrange Parade From
Kansas Ave. to Grounds.
MarshalPs Band Will Donate
Service for Occasion.
SUNDAY.

What kind of an opening celebra-
ton are the Topeka fans to enjoy next
Thursday when the Western league
season will open at the local baseball
park with the Lincoln team? This is
a question that is being asked among
the followers CT the game.
And It really looks as though there
should be something of a celebration
of this event in Topeka. For three
years the fans have watched the fight
to get into the Western league. At
times it has looked pretty dubious and
it was not until last fall that the deal
could be closed which elevated Tope-
ka into the higher circuit. 1t is step
in advance for Topeka.
In the days of the old Western as
ISOLATION, when an opening game was
played in Topeka, 1t was the signal
for a parade Of some kind with a
brass band leading the procession,
and the mayor throwing the ball over
the plate or at least in the general di-
rection of the decisive point of the
baseball field. If this was common
surate with the Western association,
something greater should be planned
to mark the opening of real baseball
in this city. The national game is
great old game any way you put 1t,
but when we are elevated to posi-
league baseball, it is worthy of more
than passing notice.
Topeka is right at the dawn Of a
period of progress and Advancement
such as she has never experienced
before. All the business interests ex-
pect to branch out, and already plans
are under foot in the newly and
splendidly organized Commercial club
by which it is hoped that the name of
Topeka will be advertised before the
world and people will be drawn this
way. There is however, probably no
one sort of advertising that will bring
more good to any town than a base
ball team, and by his ceaseless work
in the interest of Topeka baseball,
Dick Cooley has done more for the
city in the way OF keeping her name
before the world than her commercial
organizations have done in as many
decades.
Have Half Holiday.
1t would only be appropriate and
fitting to have a half holiday in To-
peka next Thursday afternoon. In
Pueblo, a town which is not so large
as Topeka, where the city spirit is q
dead letter and where the Western
league has held a franchise for -four
or five years, there will be half hol-
iday. The matter was taken before
the Commercial club of that city, and
a special committee appointed to con-
fer with the business houses. With
out exception every reputable bushes:
man in the city when seen by the com
mittee promised to close his place Of
business and allow his employees E

CORBETT DEFEATED KEYEs.
Gets Decision on Points in Fast Tel
Round Bout.

New York, April 24-Young Corbett
last night defeated Bert Keyes on
points in a slashing fight before the
Paramount Athletic club. In the ten
rounds there was not a lull, and each
lad from the start was apparently try
Ing for knockout. The fighting ex-
perts decided after the contest that
Young Corbett has come back into
his own. and that he is entitled to a
bout with any in his class, including
Battling Nelson. The terrific rushes by
Keyes had Corbett tired toward the
end, but throughout the battle he was
able to land hard punches when he de-
sired.
Although the club house was prae-
tically surrounded by the police, men,
bers of the club had no difficulty in en-
tering.
There was no interference with the
boxers. After several preliminaries,
Young Corbett and Reyes got togeth-
err at close quarters, and plugged away
from bell to bell. Keyes' left eye was
closed, and he was bleeding when the
first round was over.
Corbett forced the fighting. and had
the better of Keyes in the second and
third rounds.
Keyes was the aggressor in the
fourth, landing heavily on the body,
and sending a hard right to the neck.
He also had a shade In the rapid-fire

Corbett drew blood from Keyes' nose
in the fifth. Keyes sent Corbett back
several times with hard s1nashes on
the face, but the Denver boy was will

neck that almost sent Keyes to the
floor. The round was pretty even.
Corbett easily had the honors in the

yer boy was on deck with heart and

In the eighth round Keyes opened a

up followed, in which Keyes had a
shade the worst of it.
Corbett began the ninth by jabbing
Keyes twice, and got in a hard right on
the ribs, but Keyes came back with a
stiff right to the jaw, which Jared
