stay in the West, too, and not go East
as heretofore.
ct is true that $52.OOO,000 surplus
in New York banks has been busy but
it has not come West. About $4S,-
100000 of it found its way south to
move the cotton crop. The South is
dependent absolutely on Wall street.
After a great struggle the West has
come into its own and it is going to
keep it. Money might be tight but
the East can never of it's own volition
force a panic on the West again as it
did in 1907.
within the year Kansas has pro-
duced somewhere between 100000
600 and 100000, 900 of new wealth
That wealth is going to stay here in
the West. Our Western money is go
ing into Western investments. The
West is in far better shape than the
East and we are strong enough to
maintain our position against any
pressure"

A Declaration of independence
by Kansas Bankers.
Commissioner DOlley Says Thai
West Doesn't Need East.
HAVELEARNED LESSON
Eastern FiRanciers Will Never
Again Try to Dictate.
Failed in Attempt to Force a
Panic Says Mr.. DOlley.

Though there is no feeling that is
other than cordial, between the eastern
and western bankers, according 20
Bank Commissioner J. N. Dolley, the
western bankers, who long have been
under the domination of the Wall
street contingent, propose that here
after they will stand on their own
bottom" and fight their own battles
independent of the financial interests
of the east.
THE west is becoming more and
more Independent of that section of the
east which is beyond Chicago said
Mr. Dolley, land to a greater or lesser
extent is Independent of the east At
this time. Although there is no sentl-
nnent in the west against the eastern
financiers there is determination
and policy among the western men 70
do their financiering themselves.
mot only is the large debt that the
west has owed to the east in other
wears being Hquidated but few re-
newals are being made from the east.
After struggle in which it appear
ed more than once that Wall street
would force another panic similar to
the one in 1907, the westerners have
won What is more, it is believed that
the victory will be for all time and
that the east never again will dictate
whether the western country shall be
PROSPEROUS. The west was in no way
responsible for the panic of 1907, and
the western financiers do not propose
to be burdened with the future trou-
bles of New York.
Saved by Cash and Crops.
Hard cash and good crops are what
saved the west this year. Heretofore
the east always has provided at high
rates of interest, the money which
moved the crops. As long as tha-
continued the west was at the mercy
of the east in financial affairs.
But this year, the Kansas City and
St Louis bankers, with the help If
the country bankers, including those If
Kansas, have cash in their vaults and
this is moving the western crops with
a minimum help from the east. That
spells cash independence for the west
Last January banks in the western
cities began demanding cash payments
on outstanding notes. The banks in
the towns did likewise. Month by
month the surplus increased.
I'm the meantime New York began
nutting in its annual store of cash to
move the crops. In August there was
S52,OOO,0O0 surplus cash in New York
hanks They expected a big demand
from the West and did not get it.
s'When the first call for the move
ment of the crops came the cash was
already in Western vaults to pay the
freight. much of it already in the
louis banks still are bearing the brunt
of the demand without an appeal tc

+ior of the Western banks is becoming
better instead of worse. The predic-
tior, is made that their deposits viii

or February. That cash is going tc

WAS SHORT OF MONEY.
Governor New Jersey Forgot About
Columbus Day.

Orange, N. J., Oct. 13.-Although
Gov. John Franklin Fort. of New
Jersey recently signed a bill which
made Columbus Day a legal holiday in
New Jersey and which compelled state
offices, schools and banks to close on
that day, he forgot all about it yester-
day and went to his bank in East
Orange to get some cash. He found
the doors closed and was much sur
prised.
He asked the cashier if it would
not be possible to have the bank open
ed temporarily as he was short of
money. He was told that the time
lock on the vault was set for this morn
ing. There was nothing for the cover
nor to do but call on friends for aid.

Railroad Man Professor

The appointment of w. J. Cunning ham of the staff of the New York Cen tral railroads general manager at Boston to an assistant professorship in economies at Harvard is typical of what may be generally expected in this age af strong tendency toward technical education. The gTatificati ton of railroad officials at this appointment in view of recent criticism directed against them for not keeping up with the times in development of ecOnom- ics is but natural. Nor is it Unreason- able to suppose that the example thus set at Harvard will be emulated by other universities in various parts of the country Meanwhile, one can scarcely fail to speculate. with more or less consciousness that one can guess very near the truth, as to tho probable impression which an appoint ment of this particular nature creates in the minds of people who hold that the colleges and universities have wandered far from the course for which such institutions were original ly established, and that theoretical phi losophv, the erstwhiIe languages of the iearned.' and other component parts of what used to be known by the vague term "educatiOn" are now kept too much in the background.- Manchester Union.

ROBERT EMSLIE IS
 TO BE REASONED.
His 20 Years of Faithful Service to Re- ceive Recognition by the National League.

Robert Emslie. who has been um- bring in the National league for nearly 20 years, will not be assigned to further duty next season. He will be pensioned by the league, it is said, because of his long and faithful ser vice. Hank O'Day will succeed him as the dean of umpires. kmslie pitched for the Baltimore American association team back ill the sos and for a time was a stor in that capacity. He became a great umpire after Hon est John Kelly, Ciaffney, Ferguson, Mclean and other judges of play had retired. Together with Tom Lynch Of New Britain. now president of the National league: Hank O'Day, Tim Hurst and Charley Snyder, Emslie maintained discipline on the ball field and enjoyed the confidence of play CTS, magnates and fans. Last year it was charged that Enelie's eyesight was defective, but this was denied by the veteran umpire. Among the ap- plicants for places on the National leagues umpire staff are Jack Doyle and John McAIailon, once with the champion BaItimores, and George Gore of the Chicagos and Giants 20 years aao. Bobby Hart of Hartford is also on the list.

HOW ROYAL HUNTERS
 GET THE DEER
No Meetinq of European Sovereigns Complete Without Hunting Expedi ton.

No meeting of European sovereigns is complete without a hunting eXpedi- tion. and the Weer drive which the German emperor arranged recently for the benefit of the szar of Russia was of truly regal dimensions. It took place for the first time in the kaiser s new preserves at Oranienburg, some 30 miles out of Berlin.
 The deer-red deer, falIow deer and roebucks-had so increased in num- bers since their removal from the GrunewaId forest five years ago that there were over 5000, q third part of which were put at the disposal of the imperial guns. For miles around the tract was guarded by troops and no ordinary mortal was permitted to gain glimpse of the proceedings.
 Twenty four stands were erected for the monarchs and the very select party of other marIzsmen, who includ- ed four of the kaiser's sons and his brother-in-law, Prince Frederick Leo bold The drive itself was inclOsed by F 1-2 miles of rope with fluttering ribbons in the Russian and Prussian colors. The imperial train arrived at Borgsdorf, the nearest station whence automobiles conveyed the party to the forest, which is one of the most beaJs- tiful in the Mark Brandenburg.
 The preserves are much more eE- pensiVe than the Grunewald forest, where the kaiser's shoots were for merly held. They comprise some D. 900 acres of pine and beach woods. with rich moOrlands and small lakes interspersed.
 Nearly 500 deer fell to the guns of the party at the big drive, the czar shooting 19 and the kaiser 50. One superb 22- pointer brought down by the czar so delighted him that his host has given orders for the antlers to be preserved and forwarded to Rus -fo
