"Don't Come" Says Kansas.

mo more harvest hands are needed
In Kansas" was the announcement
made by Charles Harris, director OF
the Kansas free employment bureau.
Mr.. Harris issued but one call this
year and that was for 10000 men.
Last year Mr.. Harris called for al
most 10000 men. His first call in the
latter part of May, was for $4,000 men.
Later he issued two more calls. Last
wear Harris sent out men up to July 3.
This year he shut off the calls for men
June 10. He stated that the demand
has been supplied and that it is use
less for more to come. He checked up
the situation by telegraph over the
state.
The rush of hands to the state has
been unprecedented, many coming be-
fore June /, and in every locality in
Kansas, so far as can be learned, there
is no scarcity of labor.

" Stitt, was dismissed in the district
court on motion of the plaintiff. This

the past few weeks. 1t is understood
that they have made up" 1t is NOT
known whether they will make their

has attracted wide attention, as Stitt
married Miss Milligan without the con-

after the marriage she left him and

mapped her and took her to Wellington,
where she appealed to the police Judge
who took her in charge and-sent her
home.

Feeding Wards Costs Less.

Prices on meat and flour are slight
ly lower than they were six months
ago, while on groceries, dry goods
boots and shoes, hardware and feed
there has not been much change, &C
cording TO the bids which the state
board OF control received in the pur'
chase of supplies for the state charit'
able institutions for the next six
months. Tea, sorghum, breakfast
foods, coffee and so on are almost
Identical in price with six months ago.
The board buys groceries, dry goods,
boots and shoes, hardware, stationery,
feed, flour, bran and shorts. When
it comes to buying groceries the board
members and the superintendent
taste the different brands which are
offered. It is quite job to taste pre-
serves, ham. pickles, peaches, butter,
blackberries, Jams and other edibles,
one after the other continuously for a
day or more. But that is the way the
Kansas board of control does its buy
ing. 1t wants to know exactly what
it is getting.

OUR STATE CAPITOL LETTER
DoiNGS OF THE
KANSAS
STATE OFFICERS.
A Brief Resume Of What Our
"tIired Men" Are Doing, How
They Spend Their Time, Etc.
Kansas Teachers Need Higher Pay

Kansas has been taking tremeno'
ously big forward steps educationally.
More money is being spent every
year for the enlargement of the curri-
culum, the establishment of new
courses, the institution Of parapherna'
liza for industrial studies, the erection
of better, modern and more up-to-date
school houses. State aid is being fur
nished for normal training, agricultur
al and domestic science courses. But
the salaries of Kansas teachers have
not been increased in proportion to
the enlarged OUTLAWS in these di-
rections.
The total amount expended for
teachers wages ten years ago In Kan
sas was 100000. In 1910 the total
amount was $5,773,942, representing
an increase in ten years Of $2,773,S42.
Average monthly salaries have in
creased until they are $49.11 for the
teachers of rural schools, $57.23 for
teachers of the graded schools in cit
les of the third class, $50 in cities OF
the second class, $61.6S In cities OF the
first class.
In Kansas high schools the average
monthly wages is, in cities of the third
class $500, in cities of the second
class $6SS5, and in cities of the first
class $SS.S2.
Fright here" said p. T. Fairchild,
state superintendent Of instruction,
"is the real point of attack for those
who demand better service in the
school and who insist that the teacher
should be broadly and thoroughly
trained and should make the teaching
profession life work. AS first step
in the solution of this problem it
might be well to insist that all reports
dealing with teachers wages and all
teachers contracts shall be- expressed
in terms of yearly wages,
at is evident that however much we
may deplore the lack OF well organ
lied, thoroughly trained teaching
body, we shall never realize our ideal
until a living annual salary is paid
to every worthy member of the pro-
fession."

Big Enrolment at Summer School.

Lawrence, Kan.-The summer ses
sion Of the University of Kansas has
reached an enrolment of over $40 stu
dents, the largest number ever en-
rolled at so early a date. Last year
at this time the total had reached
only about 306. This indicates a
marked interest on the part of the
teachers of the state who are taking
advantage of the opportunities offer
ed for summer work. Indications now
are that the enrolment this year will
be the largest by far ever secured by
the university.

KANSAS w. C. T. U. TO
BOOST SUFFRAGE,
Members Plan Hundreds of Meetings
to Urge Votes for Women.

10 OTBc VOtcS lot WoHiCH.
Topeka, Kan.-Twenty-five hundred
woman suffrage meetings are planned
by the w. G. T. u. for Kansas this
year. Announcement of the program
has been made by Mrs. Lillian NJ.
Kitchener, president of the Kansas w
G.. T. l..
The union has 5000 members in the
state, organized into 500 branches.
Each of the local unions is to have
five suffrage meetings. The organi,
cation will make herculean efforts to
carry the woman suffrage amendment
submitted by the last legislature, at
the general election of 1912.
Five kinds of meetings have been
arranged:
Medal contest, at which medals are
to be given for the best suffrage or.
atoms.
Public rally, at which suffrage
speechs are to be made.
Picnic, at which suffrage speeches
are to be delivered.
A womans suffrage lecture, by a
noted suffragist.
addresses on suffrage.
The medal contest is to be made
state wide. Each union is to have
one, and the winner is to get silver
medal. Then there are to be contests
between divisions of the organizations,
the winners to get gold medals. These
winners are to contest for grand
gold medal" and the final contest is
to be for a $25 diamond medal.
The rallies are to be big public
meetings at which local interest is to
be aroused by speeches. The picnics
will draw crowds for more speakers.
The lectures are to be given by wide
ly known speakers, and at the recep-
tons, which are to be given in homes
of the members of the w. c. T. o.,
there will be more speeches and argu-
ment and organization for the cause.
AT our receptions and picnics ana
dinners" sand Mrs. Kitchener, "the
place cards and souvenirs will be on
suffrage matters. We shall aid the
Kansas State Equal Suffrage associa'
ton in every way we can. We have
5000 members and through these $500
meetings which we have planned, we
are sure of working up lot of en-
thusiasm over the state for the suf-
frage cause. Suffrage must win, and
we will see that it does win. Our
state organization is divided into nine
districts and every district will hold a
convention in September, when, in ad-
dition to the regular w. c. 7. U. work,
suffrage will be made the big feature.
We have our annual meeting at Kan
sas City, Kan, September 26 to ~,
and there again suffrage will be fore
most. We will have suffrage speak
ers at the various Chautauqua meet
ings over the state this summer, and
will urge the cause at every oppor-,,
tunity. The fight must and can be-
won. For that purpose we are organ
izing and making suffrage the feature.
subject at all our meetings. We sim
ply must have suffrage and we Will
get it."

TT. KELLY LOSES
IN SHORTAGE CASE.
Supreme Court Holds Miami County
Can Retain Money Of Former
Treasurer.

The supreme court has ended con-
troversy of long standing between for.
mer State Treasurer T. T. Kelly and
Miami county. Mr.. Kelly brought suit
to recover money he had paid to the
county to cover an alleged shortage.
must be returned to Kelly but the SUI
preme court reversed this finding and
held that Kelly cannot recover the
money as he paid it voluntarily and
failed to demand its return within a
reasonable time.
Mr.. Kelly was a candidate for state
treasurer in 1902. 1t was publicly
charged that while clerk Of Miami
county he had been guilty of miscon-
duct which resulted in losses to the
county. In February, 1902, the COM
missioners of Miami county made an
investigation of the matter and filed
report IN effect sustaining the
charges against Kelly.
He then presented a written propo
sal to the county commissioners ask
ing them to investigate and determine
whether he was indebted to the coun-
ty, and, if so, in what amount, agree
ing to accept their findings. At thu
same time he deposited $1,000 with
them to cover any amount for which
they might find him liable. The com
missioners accepted the proposal,
made an investigation, and prepared
a written report to the effect that ne
was indebted to the county in the sum
of $1,32499. They then notified Kelly
of the finding and requested him to
pay the balance Of $324.O0, which he
did, on July Z, 1902. On July 8, 1907,
he brought an action against the
county to recover the $1,324.00. A
referee reported in his favor and the
district court approved the report and
returned Judgment accordingly, from
which the county appealed. y
