Fiqht AGAINST Drug Stores.

The fight of the temperance people
in the coming legislature will be
against the drug store. A bill has
been drafted by the attorneys of the
State Temperance Union, and the
measure, if passed, will be one of the
most radical ever promulgated against
the liquor traffic of the state, Ac-
cording to the officers of the temper
ance organization, it will work to take
away practically all of the liquor bust
ness from the druggists, and the deal
er that relies upon this trade almost
exclusively for his profits will be
forced to hunt up new business.

Sues for s1,o2s For State.

Attorney General Fred s. Jackson
has filed mandamus proceedings in
the supreme court against Frank NJ.
Holcomb, county clerk of Wyandotte
county, to compel him TO turn over
to the state a total of $1,02S.25. This
amount of money is that collected by
Holcomb as hunters licenses during
the three years ending June 30. I'm
der Kansas statute all hunters must
have licenses. These cost a dollar
each and are issued by the county
clerks. Holcomb has turned over to
the state only a part of the money he
has collected. Jackson contends that
Holcomb has no authority to hold the
money and that it should be paid at
once. The court granted an alterna-
tive writ of mandamus, returnable
January 9. Holcomb must pay over
the money at once or show cause why
he does not.

w. W. Stahl of Great Bend has with
drawn as candidate for chief clerk
of the house, and his strength will go
to VIII Beck of Holton. This leaves
only two candidates, Beck and c. A.
Brilliant Of Elk county. Some of the
leaders are now framing up a plan
whereby Brilliant is TO retire from the
race and permit Of Beck's election by
acclimation. In return Brilliant is to
be made assistant chief clerk. Beck
is receiving pledges of support from
every section of the state. AS SEC.
rotary of the Republican state COM
mittee he secured an acquaintance
with all the Republican members of
the legislature which makes his race
for chief clerk easy.

AS Successor to Dawson.

Attorney General Fred s. Jackson
has announced the appointment Of
John Marshall of Winfield, attorney
for the State Temperance Union, as
his assistant to succeed John Dawson,
who resigned to accept the private
secretaryship to Governor-elect
ST. IBIS. AS attorney for the State
Ten. perance Union, Mr.. Marshall
made an enviable reputation in the
enforcement of the prohibitory law.
He is regarded as one Of the most ca
pable lawyers in the state and his
selection for this important place was
made on account of his familiarity
with this portion of the work in the
attorney generals office.

Scheme to HELD The Farmers.

Senator George II. Hunter Of We'll
lington has evolved a plan to make
Kansas turkey wheat the premier
wheat of the world and to greatly
stimulate the production of high
grade wheat in Kansas. Senator
Hunter is putting his plan in the form
of bill which will be Introduced in the
next legislature shortly after the
beginning of the approaching session.
He was in Topeka in conference with
f. D. Coburn, secretary of the state
board of agriculture, and others In
terested in the wheat growing indus
try regarding his plan. Secretary Co
burn is enthusiastic in Endorsement of
he plan which Senator Hunter will
present, and thinks that it's adoption
will be of almost inestimable advan-
tage to the formers of the state. y
Senator Hunters bill will provide
for the appropriation of $100,000.00 by
the state, creating u revolving fund
to be used in the importation of fine
seed wheat from Russia and Alberta.
This revolving fund will be handled In
much the same way as the revolving
fund from which capital is drawn on
which to run the binding Irvine plant
at the penitentiary at Lansing. 1t is
not the intention of Senator Hunter
that the state derive any actual profit
from the seed wheat business any
more than it does from the manu-
facture of binding twine, although
his Plan contemplates that the state
be reimbursed for the expenditure
necessary to start the seed wheat pro-
ject.

To Stop The Splitting.

An "anti-spitting" bill will be intro
duced at the coming session of the
legislature by Captain Clad Hamilton,
Senator from the Shawnee district.
The bill, If it becomes a law, will pro-
hibit expectorating on the floors Of
street cars. passenger coaches and
other public conveyences. 1t will also
require that cuspidors be supplied in
all such places. The bill will con-
fer upon the conductor or other off,
cial in charge of the conveyance au-
thority to Arrest the offender at once
and place him in charge of proper Off
cials at the first stop. The railroads
are said to be strongly in favor of
such law. They will make new rules
compelling the observance of the laws
as soon as it becomes effective.

Fraternities Plan Fiaht For Lives.

The fraternities of the University of
Kansas have decided to start a def
nate campaign among the members Of
the Legislature to show that the frat
ernities are benefit to the university
rather than hindrance. There is
possibility of bill being introduced
In the next Legislature to exclude the
'frats" from the school, and it is for
the purpose Of guarding against this
movement that the fraternities will
take action. Each member of a frat
ernity will try to see each member
