will close his desk and drop the big
gest advertising deal of the year UNI
til the next day. He is good deal
of an out door man with golf and his
automobile as his principal accessor-
les. He gets as much enjoyment out
of a two-step as a sophomore from K
u. If Mr.. Capper should be elected
governor, the floor of the ball room
in the governor house will be waxed
for the first time since the state ac-
quired it, and the billiard table will
be busted off, They say it needs it.
He keeps lot of things going on in
Topeka at his own expense. Every
winter he gives an entertainment for
his employees, and every summer he
gives them picnic. He gives pic
mic for the children of Topeka every
year His flower mission-the daily
collections of flowers for the patients
in the various hospita1s-is one of
the towns philanthropies. He lets
the boys in on marathon race and
gives the boys and girls chance in a
flower show every year. OF course,
all these things are, in a broader
sense, advertising for the Capital and
probably pay their way in the long
run. But they Illustrate the spirit
of the man.
Mr.. Capper said in his announce
ment that he would make no brass
band parade And he won't. He is
singularly inexpert in the art of blow
ing his personal horn, which will be
quite a change for Kansas. He
makes pretty good speech when he
is ribbed up to it, but it scares him
to death and he looks out of the win
dow all the time he is talking. Cap.
per is so modest and self-effacing
that if he is elected governor chance
visitors will mistake him for a state
house messenger. No other man who
happened to be the real head of a big
business has ever so effectually disas
ISOLATED his personality from it. No
body ever blames him personally foI
things that appear in the Capital
The blame always falls on his editor
in-chief, Mr.. Harold T. Chase, or the
associate editor who writes the Sec
ond Thought column.

u. E. House in Osborne Farmt

q. z. House in Osborne Farmer
Topeka, June 2O.-Arthur Capper's
announcement of his candidacy for
governor brings to mind the thought
that of all the men who have in re-
cent time figured prominently in the
affairs of the state, he is the least in
timately known. Mr.. Capper has
been a potent influence in Kansas af-
fairs since the early nineties. His
name is familiar wherever newspa-
pers are read. He probably has as
wide circle of friends and acquaint-
ances as any man in the state. But
Capper himself is so modest and re-
ticent by nature, so calcium Shy,
that there is very little intimate
knowledge of his personality even by
those of US who have been closely
identified with his enterprises. Gen
orally speaking, he has been the back
ground against which Kansas events
arrayed themselves. He has almost
meyer worn plug hat or taken part
in the parade.
1t may be said here by way of pre-
face to a casual and brief study OF
Mr.. Capper's personality that these
letters will not in any sense be devot-
ed to press agenting the Capper CUB
ernatorial boom. Mr.. Capper has
more publicity right at his hand than
any other man in Kansas and he can
press agent his own boom. These
letters will continue to be devoted
and consecrated to the task of dis
Seminating valuable information
which the metropolitan newspapers
either suppress or touch upon but
briefly. But Mr.. Capper looms now
as an interesting figure on the public
horizon, which seems to be sufficient
excuse for exploiting his human side,
To the writer who has been around
Mr.. Capper's place for nearly ten
years, his fortissimo note has always
appeared to be his tremendous abili.

of detail. The Capper business is a
big one, so big that those of us asso-
ciated with it do not really compre-
bend its size. He has seven or eight
the number increases every year
newspapers and periodicals. One Of
his periodicals, monthly, has cir
culation of over half a million. An
other is above the 1000 mark. He
has three or four with a circulation
of more than 100, 900 copies per issue
Roughly estimated, he gives regula
employment to seven or eight hun
dred people. The number of his EN-
ployes, like the number of his publ
cations, constantly increases. Oh
the side he runs two or three engray
ing plants, a job printing office and
post card supply house. He keeps il
intimate touch with the details of al
these enterprises. You can't sill
anything over on him; he knows ey
erything that is going on. If an EN-
ploye were to inject an objectionabl
paragraph into the most obscure col
ner of his humblest periodical, CAP
per would see it.
In the manner of his work an

ton. He works on a schedule an

ell out of proportion to charges for
transportation service is shown by Of
fetal returns of the Interstate Com
merce Commission for the nine
months ended March 81, 1911.
AS compared with the correspond
ing nine months of the last fiscal
year, these returns show an increase
of only nine-tenths of one per cent in
total operating revenues. In the
same period, there was an increase of
es. There were increases under every
heading of operating expenditures,
the largest being 8.3 per cent under
the head of transportation. The
large increase under this heading re-
fleets the substantial advances in the
wages of practically all employees in
the transportation department which
have been made during the past year.
AS result of almost stationary OPP
Grating revenues and largely increas-
ed operating expenses, net operating
revenues for the nine months show a
| decrease of 10 per cent. Taxes dur
! ing the nine months of this fiscal
year show an increase of 4.6 per cent,
| and final net operating income for
| the nine months was 9.6 per cent less
than for the nine months of last
year.
The latest complete statistics Of
railway taxation available are those
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1909.
| They show an increase in taxation
per mile of line of 57.26 per cent as
compared with 1900.
On any basis on which compari-
son may be made, the taxes paid by
railways are far in excess of those
paid by industrial concerns. For six
representative railway systems in diff.
ferent parts of the United States the
average ratio of taxes to gross earn

ratio of taxes to capitalization was

Who Likes to Be Called Freckle-Face?
Do You?

There wouldn't be many freckles at all if
people would only use Kintho. That the
way to get rid of them easily. If people are
calling you Freckle-Face, get a two-ounce
package right away wherever toilet goods
are sold, and fool them. Freckles certainly
don't add to ones beauty, and no one need
tolerate them. Kintho is guaranteed to re-
move even the worst freckles, or money back.
Use Kintho Soap too. 1t will not only
help give the freckles push, but it is de-
lghtful for toilet use.

MOUNT ELLIOTT EXPLOITATION
 UNDER WAY
rFrom Tuesdays Dailyj

At the present time the large in terests of the Mt. Elliott Consolidated Mining company in Chaparral are undergoing the most extensive system of exploitation ever extended, and as far as the work has progressed sat isfactOry results are shown. This good report was made by W. J. Mar tin, general manager, who arrived from the camp Sunday on a brief business trip to the city, and who will return today.
 The Galena, Dividend and Jump Off mines are the separate points under development, on each of which two shifts are maintained. The Ga lena shaft has reached a depth of 300 the Dividend 62O and the Jump Of 100 feet. Between the Dividend and Galena shafts the distance is 1000 feet, while between the Jump Of and Galena about 300 feet inter venes. The purpose is to connect all three points from which large plan of development, some idea may be formed of the extensive underground conditions that will be determined MT. Martin states that he is more than satisfied with the showing on the Dividend and Jump Of claims, and will maintain operations in a diligent manner. A strict line of development is the purpose, and for the present the ten stamp mill will not be run, except occasionally to ascertain exact values of the ores.

VALLEY FRUITS ARE N|PPEDBY
 FROST
From Tuesdays Daily)

Last week s cold wave was de- structive in several localities, and the loss of fruit and grain will reach a considerable sum. In Skull Valley, terday by John Morris, his wheat crop is total loss, while on the Miller farm. similar conditions were experienced. In fruit. w. L. Roberts states that the Lasswell Gardner and his orchards will escape with loss of about one-fourth, which is consid- cred as fortunate. The cold was se- were for the season, and had never before been equalled. Along Walnut Creek, according to D. Dial, the fruit loss was complete and not tree escaped. The Cienega country also suffered.
 Fitzhugh Lee, who is in the city from Granite Mountain. states that the preeaution was taken at one or ehard to burn 1000 gallons of petrol cum during the cold wave, which raised the temperature ten degrees, with the result that not bud was nipped by the frost. Other owners in the same locality were favored by adopting this method.
 At Fair Oaks smudglug was started on the 10th and maintained every night until the cold ceased The larg- est crop in the history of that enter prise is assured in consequence. It is eonservatively estimated at 3O,O0O boxes.

Agua Fria. Water Users Installing Electric
 Power
Transmission Line Being Built From Phoenix
 To Marinette

PHOENIX, Ariz., April 17.-Not only will the electric transmission line soon be constructed from Phoenix to Marinette furnish power to pump water for Marinette lands, but will also supply power for irrigating the 17,OOO acres held by the members of the Agua Fria Water Users assoei- ation.
 The expense of constructing the line from Phoenix to Glendale will be divided between the United States reclamation service. Marinette com pany and the Agua Fria land owners. From Glendale to Marinette the cost will be borne by the Marinette and Agua Fria people and from Marinette to a point a mile and a half beyond, where a transformer station is to be installed, entirely by the Agua Fria Water Users association. The capa- city of the line will be approximately 100 kilowatts.
 From the transformer stations, which will be near the west bank of the Agua Fria, across that stream from Mar;nette, a distributing sys- tenn will ramify over the entire sec ton to be brought under irrigation. There will be one well and a pump to every half section.
 About ten wells have already been dug, each one only to water level. Water is found in that district from 10 to 125 feet from the surface. Be fore pumps are installed, each of the dug wells will be drilled about 200 feet deeper to insure an ample supply.
 The land to be irrigated is of the same character as that held by the Marinette company. It is level, fer tile and exceptionally well adapted to fruit growing.
 A great many details are yet to be worked out by the Agua Fria Water Users association. The money now in the treasury will be used to pay for the transmission line. As sessments will be made to erect transformer station and do other nee essary work. Each land owner will furnish his own well and pump.
 It is the expectation of the mem bers of the association that their land can be brought under eultiva- ton by next fall. As soon as their plans are carried out, another vast area will be added to the productive agricultural land in Arizona.
 Dr. Louis Dysart of Phoenix is president of the Agua Fria Water Users association and E. s. DePass also of this city, is secretary. Among the most prominent members are s. l.. Easterling, J. B. Girand, Dr. F.. s. Godfrey, Frank Woods, W. E. Gray, M. L. Yieux, Ralph Quinn, J. A. Lentz, Frank NJ. Avis, Fen Hildreth, Dr. R. W. Craig and G. B. Lewis of Phoenix; F. x. O'Brien and H. c.
