PLAN DIFFERENT FAIR.

1t will be a different brand The fair
which the new Kansas State Fair as
ISOLATION will hold next fall in Topeka
will be something entirely different

fort will be spared to make the event
an unqualified success.
1t will be a good clean show in every
particular and there will be horse
racing, and of the sort that thrills, and
there will be pumpkins, too, but feat
ureS are being planned which should
draw vast throngs to the capital city,
This evening a meeting OF the board
of managers of the fair association Will
be held, and offers on the part of air
experts, who wish to do daring feats in

cred.
In speaking of other features which
are being planned for the big fair Sec
rotary H. L. Cook said today: kansas
is a great field for cement and its by
products. We want to get the cement
men of the state together to make one
of the most interesting departments cf
the Wair.
"a display of all kinds of cement and
concrete products, and the tools and
machines with which they are made
would be of great practical benefit to
the farmers"
A cement show was held two or three
years ago in the big Chicago Colosseum
which attracted persons interested
Kansas is one of the big cement pro-
ducing states of the country it seems
as though an exhibition of this nature
should prove of especial interest and
value.
There are a great many manufactur-
ing firms in Kansas which would be
glad of an oportunity to display their
products. 1t has been suggested by
business man particularly intert sted in
the fair that a special feature be made
of an exhibition which the glass fac
tories Of the state would be in a posi-
ton to put on. AS rule the people OF
Kansas do not realize that the state is
rapidly growing in manufacturing in
terests, and exhibits of this kind would
serve as an eye opener to our own peo-
pie and to the country in general.
Another unique feature which Secre-
tary Cook states will be a. crowd draw
er at the fair will be the greatest dis
play of automobiles the state has ever
known. The fact that there are now
more than 460 automobiles in the city
of Topeka is convincing proof that such
an exhibit would be of local interest
On account of the fact that the farmers
own more than half of the machines in
the state, and are buying them at a
more rapid rate every day it is natural
to suppose that this display will be of
practical value to them.
Secretary Cook Is hard at work read
ing the proof of the $35, 900 premium list
which will be ready for public distr1bu-
ton about Nav 10.

Frank j. Lewis, secretary and treas
urer of the Topeka club, gave the last
testimony in the famous custer suit
instituted against that club by the at
torney general which will be submitted
to the supreme court May 6.
The testimony was taken this morn
ing in the Office of Charles Blood Smith
by Mr.. Smith and John Switzer for the
defendant and John Marshall of the
attorney generals force. Mr.. Lewis
was called By counsel for the defense
to give testin ony to the effect that all
the bylaws Of the organization during

as secretary, have been rigidly OBJ
served.

officers knew 1t, did they not?''

THAT'S all,' said Marshall, who
afterwards added that the testimony
was very satisfactory to him.
The fact that the bylaws and regu-
cants renders the fact that they were
enforced of little value to the case

admit it as evidence. The hearing of

MADISON INSURGES.
Kansan Lines Up With Democrats on
BaIlinger Committee.

Washington, April 2s.-The Repub-
Iican majority of the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigation committee today
blocked an attempt made by counsel
its contention that the attorney gen.
eral had been guilty of misrepresen-
tation in ante-dating a summary OF
the CLAWS charges prepared for the
president and in evidence before the
committee. Following up his indict-
ment Of Mr.. Wickersham last Friday,
Brandeis, representing L. r.
CLAWS and others, wrote to the COM
mittee asking full information from
the department of justice and the in
terror department bearing on the sum-
mary and its preparation. The request
was today refused. The summary was
dated September IL, 1909, two days
before the date of the presidents let
ter to Secretary Bal1inger exonerat-
ing him from the CLAWS charges. Mr..
Brandeis claims this summary was not
really written until last December.
Mr.. Wickersham refused either to
affirm or to deny the truth of this
charge and the committee by its action
today declined to adopt any measures
to compel him to reveal the facts. The
four Democrats on the committee vot-
ed solidly on permitting Mr.. Brandeis
to turn the searchlight of publicity
into this matter. The only Republican
who did not vote in comm ttee to deny
it was Representative Madison of
Kansas, the insurgent member of the
who was absent. Mr.. Matdi-
son came in after the public session
had begun and asked to be recorded
as voting with the Dem ocrats.

the proposition, while J. E. McCulloch

After Senator Shively had protested
the convention had not been called to

authoritatively do so, Lamb closed the
debate in favor of the proposition.
