in a speech tonight In this city.
ut is generally understood he IS
out here to support congressional
candidates who in turn, will aid in
keeping him IN his char. SO far,
have heard nothing that he has said
that viii influence Kansas on public
questions.
The speech he is making is COM
posed of the same CONGRATULATIONS in
regard to the protective tariff, that
ne has always made. The arguments
he makes in regard to protection are
those we all admit. We object to the
republican party being used by the
Cannou-Aldrich combination to pro-
mote the fortunes of corporations, not
from standpo mt of protectionists,
but from that of monopolists."

HOSPITAL PLANS
ARE GOING AHEAD
Ground Will Be Broken in Spring for
New Detroit General-Will Be
Splendidly Equipped.

Preparations for the erection OF the
New Detroit General hospital are go
Ing on apace, and ground Will he
broken for the institution I'm the early
spring. The site. 20 acres, for the
structure is on the West Grand
Boulevard. The plan adopted call for
the pavilion system OF hospital con-
struction. a method now used extern
sively In Europe. In this way eX-
pansion may be had at any time nee
essary by the addition of units.
1t will be the aim of the board of
directors to make the buildings com
plete in every way. Economy eff
cheney and durability will be kept in
mind I'm planning and furnishing every
department OF the institution. All ar
rangements. appliances and equip
ment introduced will be those already
tried and found satisfactory in vari-
Gus countries. All buildings will be
fire-proof.
The buildings are designed to make
a pleasing impression in form and
color upon the patients, for whom
cheerful environment is an import
ant consideration. The board thinks
the point in hospital construction has
been reached where the greatest util-
ity is considered the highest art
The accompanying plans show the
completed institution. The buildings
essential for the successful working
of the hospital will be erected in 1911
A detailed report will be given the
public later.
A year ago. committee Of three
was sent by the board to study the
hospitals of United States. Canada,
and Europe. The report OF the com
mittee is an exhaustive one and the
citizens of Detroit may expect to
