is not just as much complaint against
increasing taxes as there is in Kansas.
In fact, a large and outspoken senti-
ment on the part of the people of Kan
sas against high taxes ought to con-
vince prospective settlers that it is a
pretty good locality In which to locate
their homes. 1t will show them that
the people of Kansas are paying at
tention to the conduct of their affairs
of state and not letting a few political
theorists run them according to their
extensive ideas.

ExPLoRERs' IRRITABILITY.

The psychology of exploration usual
ly receives only scant attention in the
narratives Of explorers, which studi-
ously ignore and suppress manifesto
lions of human traits and tendencies
that would furnish curious reading.
Forced to herd together day and night
under a perpetual strain, the leaders OF
an expedition may come literally to
hate the sight of each other" and the
feelings of the crew toward one an
other and their superiors are some
times even more bitter
An English physician has recently
taken up this matter and attempted 10
prescribe for it prophylactically He
calls this tension Arctic irritability,"
which, as 1t seems to US, is not the
right description, since the history of
exploration shows that latitude has
nothing to do with the origin and
growth of the feeling. AS matter of
Pacific will be found to be far richer
in violence, manslaughter and mutiny
than that of the frozen north or south.
The greater measure of self-control in
high ATTITUDES is probably entirely due
to a realization that among snow and
ice all must hang together lest all
perish, whereas among the green
islands of the Pacific escape from in
tolerable conditions appears possible,
and even simple. 1t merely happens
that the subject was not taken up for
scientific study until exploration by
ship in hot climates had long ceased,
while that in polar seas has been con-
tinued to this day. Hence Arctic IT.

So far as the telephone companies are

the direction of the interstate COM

ice of the very greatest importance is
that which will come within the COM

dered by railroads and entirely of a
public characterize official supervision
is in harmony with the governments
general policy as to facilities Of trans
portation and communication.
No doubt a popular impression pre-
walls that large customers of the tele-

early ninet1es some cause for complaint
was given because of DETERMINATIONS in

20 years. however, the established bust

- 70 pc a revival of an old fashion
IN glrls-the modest violet TYNE is
to be cultivated again! The COWBOY
ana the roustabout manners are to be
oecIassed, the over-the-fence and up-
tne-tree types are to pass with the
bisoness and the squaw; the modest
violet is to bloom again.
ana what do you suppose is to work
TINS miracle? Why, the edict of the
dressmaker. A fashion writer informs
US that the rumors of revolt from
the present construction in woman's
sKlrts are all wrong; that no such re-
volt can succeed; that the bouffant
lady Is, politely speaking, extinct;
that no degree of ongbongpwang will
ever be countenanced again And.
therefore, since the narrow skirts now
provided for all sorts and conditions
OF women make it impossible for wo-
men to sprawl on chairs or march with
an Amazonian stride and vet retain
any stimulation of grace or beauty of
movement, the only thing left is for
the girls to accept the situation and
return to the gentler manners, the
more liquid glide, to which their
clothes restrict them.
Well-maybe. Maybe we shall have
rows OF modest little Violets, potted
in their narrow skirts, blooming be-
side the highway while the rude world
brawls along. But what if the ladies
should insist on walking and running
and caVorting in their narrow skirts
just as they have been doing while
skirts were full? They owe no allie
glance to any authority in all the
world unless it be to the dressmaker;
let us see if even the dressmaker can
order them back into a violet attitude.

JEALOTrs on ROOgEvEIT.

JEALOUS OF ROOSEVELT.
William Randolph Hearst, the noted
newspaper bully, is jealous of Col.
Roosevelt. Mr.. Hearst is the owner
resents the big fuss that is being made
over Roosevelt. Hearst has as High
Resolves as Roosevelt; as friend of
the people, he is as active and con-
slant; as the owner of five great news
papers, printed in different sections of
the country, he may fairly be called
the originator of the present reform
wave. Therefore Hearst has a right
to be Jealous of Roosevelt, who is at
tracing all the attention. In a recent
editorial, Mr.. Hearst says Cor a hired
man says for him:)
mo man so cratic, so impulsive
and SO inconsistent as Theodore
Roosevelt can interpret the spirit and
genius of the American people. His
speech in London makes this plain. 1t
is important to the moral influence of
America that SO damaging presump-
ton should be destroyed. This news
paper hopes that mass meetings of
Americans in more than one city will
repudiate the un-American utteranceS
of the ex-president."
The plain people who have no other
part in the notoriety game than to ex-
plot the Big Boys, are entitled to
qquiet laugh (qquiet in order that
Hearst may not be offended) over his
suggestion that mass meetings be call
ed everywhere to condemn Teddy.

A FINE AMERICAN MOTOR.
1t is stated among aviators that the
successful fight made by Captain
Rolls, when he crossed and recrossed
the English channel recently, was
largely because of the excellence of the
motor which propelled his aerop1ane.
This Is most excellent news to an
American, for it was an American mo-
tor which carried the vessel over land
and sea and Americans pride them
selves on the safety and accurateness
of their machinery. Aeroplanes with
wings as long as a comets tail and
with other accoutrements of the best
in other parts of the ship would be
worthless without a fine working mo-
tor to put it in the air and keep it
there. So the United States is at the
front once more with something that
makes her always prominent in aerial
navigation as in many other things
