Race Problem at Kansas City PO-
lice Headquarters.

Four men who were under arrest
spent last Saturday night in the city
Jail at police headquarters. Three OF
these were white men, comprising
the crew of a street railway train that
had run over and killed a newsboy
on Tenth street. The other was a
negro, charged with the killing of a
white woman.
The negro, who had been police
man, had killed the woman. There
wasn't any doubt about it, except as
to the manner of the killing. 1t was
his claim that he had fired into the
air to scare little boy he was chas-
ing-a direct violation of police
rules-and that the woman had been
struck by spent bullet. Across the
breast of the boy was a dark-red fur
row, plowed by the bullet that was
fired in the air."
There was not the slightest evil
dence that the train crew was respOn-
sible-even by omission-for the
death Of the boy killed in the street.
car accident. The prosecuting attor-
ney had investigated the case. Twice
during the night be ordered the men
released, but the police refused to
obey the order.
Throughout the long night the
white men were kept in the vermin-
infested holdover, huddled together
with thieves, drunks, yagrants-the
lowest and most worthless of earth's S
offscourings.
The negro who had killed the white
woman reposed in the matron's room,
a quiet, restful place far removed
from the babel and stencil of the
hOldOver.
Who shall say hereafter that Kan
sas Cityans are not a peaceful and
law-abiding people? There are places
in the United States where mobs
would be raised and torches flare on
far less provocation.
II is not necessary to comment on
such a story. No words save the sim

TOMATO SEASON
RECORD BREAKER
Estimated Tomatoes by the
Factories District-Yield Has Phenomenal
Will End This Week

The tomato season is nearing its
end and the canning factories will sus-
pend operations in this vicinity this
this week The season is, from many
reports, the best in the history of the
state, both 10 the farmer and to the
shippers.
The yield OF tomatoes In cher coun-
" was phenomenal, some acres pro
ducinS as much as thirty tons. The
early ripening increased the yield and
was r great advantage TO both the
growers and the Gamers. as the ma
turing OF the fruit was not interfercd
with by frost.
II is estimated that 10000 cases of
tomatoes have been canned in this dis
trict
Because Of the failure Of the toma-
TO crop in some of the eastern dis
tricts, there is q very urgent demand
and the canneTics are having no trou-
BILE in finding markets for the pro-
ducc
For the amount of acreage employ
ed, II is believed that this section this
year has produced more tomatoes than
any state in the union.
