Coburn On ' the ! sCfooi j Killer

F. D. Coburn, secretary of the
State Board of Agriculture, writing
about the crop killed in Kansas,
asys:
Probably no other like territory
in the. world offers more inviting OPP
portunities to the higb-prieed pro-
fessional and self-advertised Lex
pert" crop killer than does Kansas;
but to those who know and believe in
it( and TO know it is to believe in
it) such assiduous attention to the
state is more flattering than other
wise. :
: "From early planting time until
the crops are we'll on their way to
market the crop killers activities
are ceasless; with Hessian fly, green
bug, chinch bug, floods, drouth and
hail-all the ammunition a vivid and
highly subsidized Imagination can
supply-the crop prospects are bonn
barded and shot to pieces; and then
when the official statistics for the
year are published they show that
Kansas has again surpassed its own
records. This was the case in 1908,
year in which the killers were
more than usually active. To the
uninitiated (recelving their impress
sions from the stories these defamers
originated) it probably appeared
that Kansas must at last confess to
at least a partial crop failure. The
first intimation that such might not
be the case came to them when the
state issued a call for thousands of
men to help harvest its wheat and
later when the mggardly killers ad-
mitted that there might be a partial
corn crop. But when the final figures
were received, tabulated and given to
an eager world, they revealed that
never in its history had the values
of its farm products and live stock
reached such an astounding total
&75, 244,S3l, which was $11,596,224
more than the best prior year, 1907,
when the crop killers had been equal
ly, if not more, jealous. The Stats
ties disclosed, too, that never had
Kansas realised such a valuable wheat
crop-it was worth $685. 45-nor

'oAN THEY CHEEK IT. QUIZ

The Republican Congressional Cam
paign committee was counting seam
dal when after the election in 1908,
it failed to issue a statement Of the
contributions to its fund. Its per-
sistent refusal to publish any state
ment has kept alive and aggravated
the scandal.
In connection with the wooden
schedules in the new tariff law the
Republican majority in congress is
confronted with direct charges of
corruption. The retention Of the old
schedule was suspicious. The tao
ties employed in keeping those
schedules unchanged were suspicious.
Taken together, with the secrecy
maintained by the Republican con-
gressional committee as to the sourc-
es of its fund they become doubly
suspicious. H. l. Hamill of Phila-
delphia, director of the Carded Wool
len Manufacturers Association,
challenged the congressional! commit
tee to disprove the charges by pro-
ducing its accounts. But no accounts
have been produced, no proof pre-
scented, clearing the committee, and
the tariff deal stands.
Until last year the party Of high
protection had no trouble in financ-
ing its campaigns. Although by law
the corporations were then barred
from contributing, there was no great
shortage Of funds. Against their
will the members of the National Re-
publican Committee found themselves
forced to make a public statement
Of the names of contributors and
the amounts of the contributions.
With what excellent results the Re-
publican Congressional Committee,an
organization of quite as much i'm
portance in some respects, preserved
secrecy was shown In a Washington
dispatch to the Sunday World yes
terday. Did it receive and apply
moneys which the other committee
did not care to account for in its
reportf Did it handle the stand
patters' slush fund?
When a political party has two
committees collecting and disbursing
money, one of them recognizing the
principle of publicity and the other
adhering to the old secret methods,
the worst evils o. campaign corrup-
ton have not been cured. The Re-
publican Congressional Committee
has long been under suspicion. 1t is
now openly accused. Do the party
managers believe that they can check
it Outf-New York World.

According to- the government 5

sion, through its chairman, Martin
Knapp, has announced that the rail-
roads this year will be unable to
handle the enormous traffic that will
come from large crops and the unusu-

of 1907 when millions of bushels
of grain were left to rot upon the

DOWN. col RATES.
Effscts Of . Law Passed By Last
Legislature.


Charles W. Barnes, state superin-
8endent Of insurance, issued an ord
or last week to all the fire insurance
companies doing btisiness in Kansas
directing them to reduce the fire
insurance rates in Kansas twelve
per cent September l. The reduc-
tion will be general with reference
to companies, but will not apply to
MI classes Of property. 1t will .ap-
ply to business property particular
ly, namely business houses and their
contents, restaurants, hotels, print
ing offices, mills and elevators, lnm-
Der yards, bank buildings, packing
houses and their contents, county
Buildings and contents and all mer-
camille lines.
This reduction is unprecedented in
Kansas and according to Mr.. Barnes,
will mean a saving of S8,583.72 to
the business interests of the state
annually. The only property to which
the order will not apply is residences,
church, school and farm property.
Investigations are being made into
The rates on these ,atter classes of
property and it is likely that reduc-
tons will be. ordered in the rates
upon them also. Mr.. Barnes has been
investigating conditions for some
time. 4
Speaking Of the order and the eff
feet it would have upon rates and
the business interests Of the state,
Mr.. Barnes said yesterday:
ga reduction Of twelve per cent
in the rates Of fire insurance premi-
ams means Q saving to the business
interests Of Kansas of $4SS ,583.72 an
nually. %
aThis reduction applies to bust
mess houses and contents, restaurants,
hotels, printing offices, mills and
elevators, lumber yards bank build
ings packing houses and contents,
county buildings and contents, and all
mercantile lines. Investigations and
compilations of figures which have
been. made have. been exclusively
along these lines, and the readjust-
ment Of the rates for residences,
farm property, churches and school
houses is subject which will be
given the earliest possible considera-
tion.
II believe that our history does
not show where a single legislature
enactment has brought similar bene-
fits to the people Of the state within
50 short a period. This law is the
most enlightened legislation ever en-
acted by any state, and the judg-
ment Of the members of the Legis-
lature will be fully confirmed before
another session is held"

CURB COUNTY
ROAD EXPENSE

]. M. Snow, state highway COM
missioner, appeared before the
county commissioners today to as
certain what action the board pro-
posed taking on three road i'm
provement resolutions adopted by
the old commissioners just before
going out of office. These petitions
called for improvements on the
Bigelow gulch road, the Spangle
road and another highway, which
improvements would consume the
bulk of Spokane's allotment of
state highway funds amounting to
$4,000
AS the county must invest dollar
for dollar with the state in any
highway improvements undertaken
Jointly, the commissioners told Mr..
Snow that Spokane county was not
prepared at this time, because of
the condition of its treasury, to
launch upon any extensive plan of
highway improvement. The coun.
ty road fund is already overdrawn
and the commissioners will not in
volve the county in any more debt
if it can be avoided.
