TOWNSHIP LEVIEs.

The county clerk 'a: asked MS
g cal the attention of the var
lOuS township boards to the fact
that their township levies, are
due a: his Office by Saturday this
week and furthermore that a sep
crate levy must be made under
the new road law for general pur
poses and also for road , work.
Those township officers who have
not yet done this. had better do
so as soon as possible, so as not
to delav the work in the clerk s
office, which from now on viii be
rushing enough to enable him to
get the tax rolls out. Township
officers, also school district Off
GERS, should look up the laws pass
ed by the last legislature, and be
governed. accordingly. Some of
them may think the laws respect
ing their duties are changed too
often, yet, every member of the
legislature who had ever been a
township officer, and that meant
nearly all of them, had from one
tC six amendments or new laws
they desired to have made. The
fellow who has had experience in
these places has always got some
thing he wants changed or added
to the existing laws, hence so
much legislation at every session
that seems Of a minor nature.

Expensive Trust Busting.

Fifty-nine thousand dollars was
the amount paid Frank B. Kel-
log, the Republican trust buster,
by the government, between 1907
and 1911. 1t is believed that Kel-
log received as much if not more,
from the trusts. 1t was develop
ed before the Stanley committee
that in one instance he received
fees from the steel trust while
being paid by the government to
prosecute its friend and ally, the
oil trust. j. B. Reynolds, another
trust buster" received $64, 900
from the. public treasury for his
services in the tobacco and coal
carrying railroad cases. In all
the Republicans spent more than
$3,OOO,OOO in ten years for "truSt
busting and the trusts are still
with us.

A NEAR ACCIDENT.

While driving up Main street
Sunday night about nine o'clock
Fay Cone, who was driving a
Great Western car ran the same
into a team driven by Mr.. AcOck
of east of town. One of the
horses was slightly damaged but
as the machine was being slowly
driven the driver shut it off be-
fore serious injury was done. Mr..
and Mrs. AcOck were driving
south on the right side of Main
street when the accident occurred
They started to swing out as the
auto hit the team but were too
late. The accident occurred near
the Frazier. store where Fay is
employed and he explained that
he was turning in at the curb in
front of the store and that was
why he happened to be on the
wrong side of the street. 1t is
likely that he was looking to-
wardS'the store or walk and did
not see the team. The car was
slightly damaged as a result of
the collision.

STATE INSTITUTION BURNS

The main building of the school
for feebleminded at Winfield was
totally destroyed by fire early
Monday evening, causing a loss to
the state of about $125,OOO. Some
thing like four hundred children
were quartered in the building
all of whom were rescued without
a single mishap. The fire occur
red after they had retired, but
before the attendants had done
so. The institution had depended
upon its own resources for a
water supply, being located about
two miles from town. No other
buildings were destroyed. There
are no funds available for a new
building until the legislature
meets, but the children can be Ia
ken care of so as not to necessi-
tate special session.

A KANSAN FIRST.

The Colorado Springs CORES
pOndent Of the Hutchinson News
says:
To KanSan belongs the honor
OF driving his automobile nearly
to the summit of Pixies Peak this
month. Hon. E. W. Moses. one
Of the leading bankers and mill
ing men of Kansas, is spending
the summer with his family at
Cascade in Ute Pass, just west of
Colorado Springs. A few DAYS
ago, IN company with Earl Wrigh
cashier of the German-American
bank of Great Bend, and four
Others, he started out to make the
trip over the old carriage road
from Cascade with the idea of
learning how far the road might
be paSSable. He was able to run
the machine nearly nine miles. or
about half of the way to the
summit. A few days later, in
company with Hon. D. n. He;tzer,
former mayor of Colorado
Springs, he went to the top of
the Peak by train and made the
trip down over the old grade
part Of the way afOOt and the re-
mainder by carriage. Thhere is
a scheme now on foot to build a
substantial automobile road
from Manitou, by way of Cascade
TO the summit of Pixies Peak. 1t
is being pushed by Mr.. Heizer,
who is a former resident of Great
Bend and is well known in Kan

could testify to numerous chari-
ties received from her and though
she has been sufferer for years
from'chrOnic rheumatism, yet she
was always ready to do a kind
service for those about her. Dur
ing the past eight months she has
been confined to her bed, but
through all her Sufferings showed
that patience and fOrtitude which
had made up her whole life. Af-
ter untold suffering, she passed

An Impartial" Investigator

G. W. Burton, special agent of
tthe tariff board who is now trav
cling in Europe gathering "ex-
act information" to be used as
the basis of tariff revision by the
Republicans is an Aldrich stand
patter on the tariff question, and
was undoubtedly selected because
of this qualification. Burton, on
the side, has been writing letters
back for publication in the Los
Angeles Times, a high perfection
lst paper. This " impartial" in
vestigatOr, gathering "exact in
formation" in a recent letter de-
clared that: Your tariff revision
demand, fellow Americans, is "a
fad. In another letter, excOriat-
Ing the whole tariff revision sug-
gestiOn, this impartial" inves-
tigatOr made this Judicial and
carefully weighed observation:
The merchants Of our country
who are so inadvisedly shouting
for lower duties in order to get
the cost Of living reduced should
stop making so much noise until
they learn what they are talking
about" All of which is inter-
Gsting in view of the fact Presi-
dent Taft insists Congress should
not touch the iniquitOus Payne

price Of farm products. But it is
only in exceptional years that
prices are higher in the United
States than in Canada. Ordinar-
lily the addition of the Canadian
supply would not affect prices in
the United States.
What specific advantages will
the farmers receive?
First, they will receive the GEN
eral advantage that will accrue
to the entire country through the
expansion of Canadian trade. But
they will receive numerous bene-
fits in addition. They have been
selling y million dollars worth
Of clover and timothy seed a
year In Canada in spite of the
duty of 10 per cent. Under the
agreement garden and field seeds
go on the free list, thus increasing
the market. Potatoes and other
fresh vegetables are to go free
into Canada whereas they now
pay u million dollars duty every
year. Canned and dried fruits
of which Canada has been buying
Y million dollars worth a year
with a duty of about 15 per cent
will be duty free. Canada has
imposed duty of % per cent on
horses. The remission of this
ought to extend the American
horse market materially. The
same condition has existed with
regard to sheep. The Dominion
government is trying to increase
the number Of sheep, and reciprO-
city would open an important
market to Americans. Canada has
been importing q million dozen
eggs with a duty of five cents a
dozen. The removal of this duty
on dairy products will stimulate
trade. The effects of these re-
ductiCnS will be felt first along
the border, but will gradually be
distributed throughout the cOun-
try.
What reduction will be made
in the tariff revenues because of
the enactment of the ReciprO-
city Bill?
About 5 million dollars for the
United States and about 3 mil
lion dollars for Canada.
Is the bill a republican or a
Democratic measured
1t was suggested by President
Taft but a majority of the Re-
publicans in the Senate opposed
it. The Republicans in the House
were about equally divided on
the bill while the Democrats sup
ported it almost unanimously. 1t
could not have passed except for
the support of the Democrats.
Has Canada adopted the bill?
1t has not. The campaign for
its adoption is now in progress.
Is there opposition to it there
There is opposition but it is be-
lleved that it will be adopted.
If Canada rejects the agree
ment, will it be binding upon the
United States after it has been
enacted into a law by Congress?
1t will not. The law expressly
provides that it shall take effect
when Canada adopts the same
