IN MEMORIAM

Dleu at her nome IN Denver on her
6sth birthday, Mrs. Dora Brockmann.
Dora Folster was born in Holstein
Germany May IA 1912, there were seven
children in the family, four sisters and
three brothers Fred, William, Theodore
Hannah, Theresa, Doia and Lena, all of
whom came to the United States in the
early sixties.
Two sisters, Mrs Lena Guinther OF
Mill Valley, California, and Miss Han.
unah Fulster OF Denver and Theodore
Folster Of Denver are living; Fred and
William Folster and Mrs Therese Neu-
man having passed away some years
before.
Deceased came to the United States
in 1866, landing at New York, where
she remained short time coming west
to Central City in 1868, here she met
Henry Brockmann to whom she was
married September % 1862
She was the mother of splendid fam.
sly, some OF whom now have SILVER
threads among the gold," as reminder
that they, too, are nearing life's sunset
None ever entered her home without
a warm welcome nor left without feel
ing the warmth of genuine hospitality
so characteristic of the people Of her an
cestry.
AS the death dew gathered on her
marble brow, around her gathered her
girls and husband, always girls to her,
though now grown to mature years with
boys and girls around their own fire
SIDES. The life SO long interviewer with
theirs, with fearful eyes they watched
as it, slowly but surely passed over. The
love Of mother for her children passeth
human understanding.
In Religion she early developed the
habit Of weighing things in the balance
Of reason, discarding that which to her
did not harmonize with the Creator
plan as she saw Gods laws in the BIZ
book of Nature. She believed in doing
good for the sake of humanity and not
in the fear Of the anger and vengeance
of higher power. AS to future exis-
tence, she felt that each will be reward
ed according to the good deeds done in
this life. That we come into this life
not Of our own accord, and we go not
out Of our own free will, but subject to
the Supreme Power over all, and to
that power she was willing to trust her
fate when her time should come TO meet
the great mystery of death.
After the last word had been spoken,
the last sign OF recognition was gone, a
smile and look of peace settled on her
face and they knew she was resting on
a mighty arm.
Henry Brockman came TO Elbert
County in 1875 locating on the Bijou
ten miles east OF Kiowa where th,y re
sided until three years ago when they
solo out and NOV d to Denver.
She leaves to mourn her loss hus-
band and three daughters: Mrs. Han

dolph Of Blackhawk and Miss Therese

SENTIMENT FAvORS
FOUR-YEAR TERMS
RECALL AS SAFEGUARD ALSO
GAINS SUPPORT.
Elections Are Disturbing-campaign
Every Two Years Upsets Busl-
ness and is Expensive.

Topeka, KAMA full four-year term
for state officials with the right Of re-
call in the hands OF the people, is a
matter that will probably come before
the legislature this winter In all
probability the Legislature will be ask
ed to pass resolution proposing a
constitutional amendment to this eff
feet to be voted upon at the elections
two years hence The matter has not
been agitated a great deal, but since
the election there has been much dis
cussion of it, People are writing in
about it.
Such an amendment to the constitu'
ton would make break in the almost
constant campaign that has existed
since the primary election law was
passed. There would be a state cleo
tion for state officials only once in
four years. There would be primary
for state officials only once in four
years The officials would be elected
for four years without the right to be-
come candidates for a second term.
The people would have the right to
recall officials the same as they now
have in cities where the commission
form Of government has been adopted.
AS it is now, the people of Kansas
are stirred up with politics all the
time. No sooner is one election off
until another campaign is begun. The
returns from the recent election are
not all in, yet the politicians are be-
ginning to start booms for governor
and other officials two years hence
And the worst of it is the people have
to stand for it. They are given no
rest at all.
Under the present plan candidate
for governor, for instance, must make
four campaigns for a four-years' term
Of office. He must go through two
primary campaigns and two regular
campaigns. All are expensive to him.
They also are expensive to all other
candidates for state, district and coun-
ty offices. Not only is the expense
heavy on the candidates themselves,
but heavy also on business men. 1t
keeps things stirred up and business
necessarily is neglected to quite an
extent.
With state elections held every four
years BUSINESS would be more settled,
it is argued, and the people would not
be in thethroes of a political agita-
ton always. Many of the older states
have adopted the four-year term and
find it works we'll. With the recall
feature added, it would be no trouble
to get rid of an undesirable official,
the advocates Of this feature say.

Selected 5000 Acres for College.

The commission of three men ap
pointed by the governor over a year
ago under an act of the legislature, 10
select 5000 acres of land from the
public domain for the State AgricuI.
tural college, has flied its final report
with Governor Stubs.
The commission has selected eight
thousand acres of land in seven coun.
ties as specified under the act. The
counties in which the unowned land
was found are Morton, Greeley, Deca-
tur, Wallace, Sherman, Cheyenne and
Rawlins.
This land becomes the property Of
the State Agricultural college. Over
40 years ago the federal government
made u grant of 100000 acres to the
Kansas State Agricultural college. Be-
fore the college secured titled to the
land the Union Pacific was given a
land grant in Kansas, taking up about
eight thousand acres of the college
grant. Land wasn't worth much al
that time and the college did not feel
the loss. However, a few years ago
the state desired to secure the re-
naming land for the school and the
necessary steps were taken.

HUMoR IN THESE vERDIcTsI
Quaint Ideas and Expressions Re-
corded as Having Been Rendered
by coroner's Jurles.

Referring to a verdict recently
given by coroner's jury that death
was caused by the medical evidence"
the British Medical Journal says:
This verdict may be added to those
cited in the report of the select COM
mittee on death certification, where
DR.. Ogle is quoted as saying: One
verdict came before me a little time
ago which was this: "a man died
from stone in the kidney, which stone
he swallowed when laying on gravel
path in a state of drunkenness" That
was given as a verdict, l thought
some joke had been played, and l
wrote down about 1t, and found it was
an absolute fact. Another one Is
like this: Child three months old,
found dead, but no evidence whether
born alive."'" These novel judy
ments recall that an upstate newspa-
per not long ago spoke of taking
murdered mans "post-mortem" stateI

SPIRIT OF ROMANCE.

To the spirit of chivafry and love
OF adventure that characterized the
wonderful days of long ago the aver
age writer turns for his romantic tales
of love and war, but 1t seems some
how as though enough of romance
can be found in the world at every
period of it's existence, even in its
present most practical and, perhaps,
its most unpoetical stage, to make
volumes of absorbing interest, but the
mystery of the past appeals to the
ordinary mind with more persistence
than the wonders of the present; per
haps, because the intervening periods
of time have endowed the occurrences
of other days with something of the
charm of their own uncertainty. The
influence of poetry, of music, of art,
OF the drama, of literature, helps to
mold a world of loveliness, and con-
tributes in no small way to the hap
piness Of living, says the Charleston
News and Courier. Into each profess
sion some of the spirit of romance
has crept, much Of which has been
handed down from generation to gen.
Grafton as a priceless heritage. The
artistic temperament. best understands
the making of those roosevelt TO
mances which breathe their fragrance
far and wide and make the world a
better place In which to live, but even
those of us who are not blessed with
poetic natures cannot, indeed must
not, fail to trace along our daily
paths the romance of the world itself
with all its throbbing beauty-a ro-
nance of life and color, of effort and
achievement, and above all of Joy and
happiness.

Kansas Scales Were Clever.

John Kleinhans, state weight and
scale inspector, brought in a set Of
scales from Hiawatha which is a mar
vel when it comes to swindling. The
scales balance to a dot, yet they run
almost an ounce short on every pound
and about two ounces on two pounds.
Kleinhans made few deductions. II
those scales were used 100 times a
day, which is not an unusual number,
and the average price of the stuff
weighed was 10 cents a pound, the
merchant who used them cleaned up
5000 year net profits on short
weights.
81 didn't arrest the merchant who
used them," said Kleinhans, because
he bought the scales along with the
store some time ago. He said they al
ways balanced and he thought they
were right, but l confiscated the
scales"
