THE TOPEKA OFFICE.
Pension Department Sure to Be Kept
Here for Many Reasons.

A change in the eighteen pension Of
fees of the United States would prob
ably result favorably for Topeka, ac-
cording to men who are acquainted
with the situation. The Topeka office
is too large a branch to be abolished,
and there is a possibility that the Des
Moines office might be brought to
Topeka.
The consolidation of pension offices
has been before congress each session
for several years. At the coming SEES
sion it is quite probable that the num-
Der of offices will be reduced to nine.
This will be accomplished, it is claim
ed, by punching some of the eastern
and New England state Offices with the
Buffalo and Pittsburg offices. Prob
ably one or more of the central west
offices would be brought to Topeka
and some of the extreme western Of
fees consolidated with the San Fran
cisco office.
The Topeka office handles 100000
pensions. The office is one of the larg
est maintained by the pension depart
ment and the per capita expense for
taking care of the Topeka business is
less than that of any one other office.
These are the obvious reasons, why the
Topeka office would. not be removed or
abolished. On the other hand, it is
stated that some of the smaller offices
aremantained at tremendous ex-
pense to the government; and this eX-
pense would be greatly decreased by
adding them to other territory.
The Des Moines Office and the Mil
waukee Office handle more or less
conflicting territory. The expenses of
these are quite heavy. Should the Des
Moines Office be brought to Topeka,
the expense would be minimized. The
Topeka office has ample facilities for
handling the work of both offices, al
though a change would require large
office force. A consolidation of the
Topeka and Des Moines offices would
mean that nearly 100000 pensions
would be paid from the Topeka office.
At present nearly s1S,0O0.0OO are
paid annually from the Topeka office
By bringing the Des Moines office to
Topeka, the local Office would pay to
the old soldiers, their widows and or
phans, nearly $33,0OO,OOO year.
A. w. Smith, pension agent, does not
discuss the matter further than to say
that he believes the Topeka office will
not be changed. He says that in order
to make the desired changes, several

How Will Representative for
County Be Selected!

Official election returns have dis
closed that in Cove county, E. w.
Simpson, Republican, and Wayne j.
Davenport, Democrat, each received 52S
votes for representative. Heretofore it
has been customary for the board of
election canvassers to decide a tie vote
by lot, but there is now found in the
statute books a provision which says
that the legislature in joint session
shall decide in all such cases.
While the custom which has obtained
previously will not in any wise invali-
date the action of any legislator here
tofore drawn by lot in case of tie the
question hereafter may go to the legis-
lature unless some other law covering
the situation is found. But there is a
difference of opinion among the au-
thorities on this matter
AS tho next legislature will be Re-
publican it is indicated that Simpson
will be the choice from Cove county, If
it is settled that way instead of by the
board of canvassers as has been the
custom.

To the Editor of the State Journal:

To the Editor of the State Journal:
Saturday evening at about o'clock
1 purchased some oysters from one of
our downtown grocery stores and meat
market and my wife prepared them for
supper. We had nothing else. Sunday
morning and all day my whole family
were sick in the same way. Monday
morning 1 brought down the balance
of the oysters eve were afraid to use
them), and called up the city food in
spector and explained the matter to
him, who informed me he could do
nothing as the dealer would probably
say they were all right when he sold
them. In fact, the gentleman who an
swered the phone shut me off just as
soon as he could. 1t is the opinion of
myself and wife that some preservative
had been used, but there does not seem
to be any way of establishing the fact,
so now we are wondering what the
office of food inspector is for and why
the city is paying him a salary.

The LATEST MAN.
Pasho Holds the Record, According to
Mrs. PaSho.

The divorce petition of Isadore A.
Pasho against Clinton c. Pasho is the
story of lazy, lazy man. According to
Mrs. Pasho her husband in the six
years of their welded life has bought
her one skirt and three pairs of shoes
and that that was about all he had
earned. He would never hold a job,
she charges, and although she and her
friends secured work for him. he was
too tired to do it. Sometimes he would
stay a day or two.
Finally his father gave him the job
of managing a truck farm for him.
But the son once more proved too lazy
to have around and was fired off the
place. Mrs. Pasho claims she has
worked out almost continually to sup
port herself, her husband. and their
two little girls, Clara, 4 years old, and
Ruby, 2 years old, The defendants
mother has made her home with the
couple, and she, too, says the wife has
worked out or taken care of the chill
dren so that the wife could go to
work Divorce and the babies is the
plea of Mrs. Pasho.
