AMAZING INCREASE IN CRIME.

The World To-day: Ten thousand
persons are murdered in this coun-
try every year-shot, strangled- poi
soned, stabbed or beaten with a club
or a sand bag. OF the murderers,
two in every hundred are punished.
The remaining ninety-eight escape
absolutely free! In many OF our
states, the proportion of convictions
is only half as great. In Georgia, for
instance, only one murderer In ev-
cry hundred is punished. In a re-
cent census of American crime, di-
costing the nation as whole, the
statement was made that in only
1.3 per cent Of our homicides do we
secure conviction.
Chicago averages 11S murders In a
year. In the same space OF time,
Paris records only fifteen murders
and attempted murders. London,
four times the size of Chicago, has
only twenty murders. In the course
of twelve months, Georgia. typi-
cal example of the average Ameri-
can state-records forty-fiye homi-
cides-m1rc than the whole of the
British Empire! More people are mur-
dered III this country in year than
are killed on the railroads. In three
years the victims of our murder cases
total more than the losses of the
British army in the Boer war.
There are four End half times
as many murders for every million
e our population today Is there
we're twerty years ESQ.
The significant fact about 1t all
Is that the rest 81 the world does
not share these statistics. Our In
creased wickedness is confined to
our own borders. In the march OF
civilization, as applied to the pro-
lection of public life and public pro-
perty, we have fallen woefully be-
hind. We may lead the globe in
many things. We assuredly lead Il
in crime. In ninety five per cent OF
the homicides Of Germany, the guilty
person is brought to Justice. In
Spain, the number Of convictions is
eighty-five per cent of the total num-
Der of crimes. In France 1t is sixty
one per cent; in Italy, seventy-seven
per cent; in England, fifty per cent.
Do these facts-when offset against
our two convictions in every hun
dred murders-explain why our law
lessness Is increasing; why we have
more homicides every year than Italy,
Austria, France, Belgium, England,
Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Hungary,
Holland and Germany combined?
These are not theories. They are
facts. These are not the haphazard
claims of fancy. They are tested,
proved figures Of record, open to all
who will search--to you as we'll as
to me.

When Banker Naftzger was asked
in court If he didn't suspect the
stamps he bought were stolen, when
he read in the newspaper of the
many post office robberies, he said
he didn't know anything about it, as
he was SO busy he didn't read the
newspapers. Now he is to pay $4,000
fine and goes to the pen for fifteen
months that's what one man gets
for not reading the papers, says
Conner Davies. Now Is the time to

The letter Of Prof. w. H. John
son of the University of Kansas to
Supt. Stacey is a commentator
worth mentioning, coming as it does
with authority. The Abilene high
school with its capable faculty and
excellent superintendent ranks high
in the state and it is to be hoped
that the board of education will not
this year allow other schools to Sc
cure any of our teachers because
Abilene is too stingy TO pay reason
able salaries. The experiences OF
previous years nevor should be re-
peated--good teachers should be
paid good wages and be kept in the
schools.

NIGHT OIL SOME ROADS.

w. s. Gearhart, state engineer at
the Agricultural college, has given
out some information about oiled
roads.
In his letter the state engineer
says that sufficient oil to lay the
dust makes q cost of 8 or cents
a square yard. By applying from
one third to one half gallon Of
oil per square yard per year, a
road will shed water, says Mr.. Gear
hart. but to secure the best results
It is necessary to incorporate two
and one half to three gallons Of good
heavy asphalt oil with the earth,
forming a thickness Of about six
inches. In this case the earth would
have to be pulverized and the oil
applied hot. This would probably
cost from is to 20 cents per square
yard. Such a road was made in
Topeka last year and Is said to be
giving satisfaction
An oiled road has two distinct
advantages, 1t sheds water and Is
practically dustless. The Information
secured from Mr.. Gearhart should
Be well considered By the business
men as good roads and streets are
valuable assets to any town.

aTuRB6 ViErOED In.

The editor Of this valued palladium
Of the public liberties trudged to To-
peka, got the attorney general to
write a bill, concerning second class
cities; leg-rolled, and pork-barreiled
1t through the senate, whipsawed
and Substituted 1t through the
house, and then came home. It was
o good bill. It provided that when
two or more commissioners are to
be elected In a Kansas town, that
each candidate shall designate just
what part OF the commission he as
pires to, so that the people may
know when they are voting for q
man, whether or not he desires to
be finance commissioner, utilities
commissioner or what not. That
would prevent two good men who
aspire for different jobs on the COM
mission running against one another
on a blind ballot.
Then what happened? Why that
red-headed autocrat who was lately
off the section, who drives the flan-
nel-mouthed micks Of the legislature
to work with pick handles-vetoed
1t. What do you think of that? We
toed the bill; killed 1t dead; squash
ed its CORY remains with side swipe
Of his pen, and left winters work
undone.
The next time that slab-sfded
Quaker turns an emergency call for
help into this office, he will find a
moccasin over the receiver, a blank
ct upon the alarm box, and the
harp that once through Tara's hall
the soul of music shed, hanging un-
strung upon the lever of the limo
type; while the eyes that once Took
ed love to eyes that spake again"
are reading up handbooks on our
American Indians, trying to get used
to a United States senator who wears
a plug hat without any pants.--W. A.
White in Emporia Gazette.

IT NAV RE CALpERHEAD.

Topeka State Journal: More pos
sible candidates for governor began
blossoming today after the announce
ment in the State journal that a
boom for q. B. Schermerhorn, NOM
Der of the board Of control, had been
started by the Beloit Gazette Two
more booms began to be talked
around the state house. One Of
these was a boom Of the tclegra-
piers for Frank ]. Ryan railroad
commissioner, and the other was q
boost for w. A. Calderhead of Marys-
vine.
The Calderhead boom is the one
taken most seriously and an effort
is to be made by THO Old regular
crowd in the Republican party to
get Calderhead to make the race.
The progressives wan: Congressman
Madison to run as their standard
bearer. On account u the Curtis
Stubs senatorial fight the Curtis
or the old regular bunch want a
candidate Of their own kind.
Calderhead is a logical man for
the place. He has always been a
conservative and is a staunch sup
porter Of the high protection idea
He fought free silver and every pos
sible "ism" that the Populists and
Democrats dug up and he stood
against the revision Of the tariff In
the face Of almost sure defeat. No
one has ever questioned his sincerity
In his public acts.
ut Is high time" said one state
house officer today, that we change
from the radical agitator and revival
list TO constructionist. We have
had enough demands for reform and
the thing most needed now Is to keep
the state going in the line Of pro-
gress it has set out to follow"
Calderhead just suits this idea. He
would represent the conservatives
better than any Of the possibilities
discussed and II he were governor
there would not be much yelling for
reform but he would set about en-
forcing the laws and making every
person and corporation obey the laws
and do their full duty as citizens.
Mr.. Calderhead has been mention
ed several times since he came back
from Washington. AS far as known
he has never discussed the possibility
OF becoming a candidate for governor
next year. He might do so. There
are any number Of anti-Stubbs fol-
lowers who are doing everything in
their power to get calderhead into
the race. It is possible that Cal
derhead may be persuaded to make
the race, The fellows are doing a
lot of talking and IL they can make
a showing that Calderhead has a
real chance to win 1t is believed
that he can be persuaded to try the
primary campaign.

There is story going around
among the lawyers that seems to
have enough human interest in 1t to
justify putting 1t in print. A good
many years ago, the lawyers say,
business man in Wichita failed.
Not wishing to be left entirely PEN
niless when the crash came he gath
cred up thirty thousand dollars In
cash and by arranging with L. 8,
Naftzger deposited it in the latters
bank under an assumed name. He
then went back to his place OF bust
ness, pulled down the blinds and
with the conscious rectitude of hon
est poverty called in his creditors
and turned over to them everything
he had in the world" When the
bankruptcy proceedings were finish
ed and every creditor had signed a
release, the man OF virtue-and fore
sight-went to the bank and pre-
sented check for 100000. OF
course the check bore the name that
had been assumed for the purpose
Of this little transaction, and Banker
Natter gazed at 1t critically. rs
that your name?" And the cold
tone In which he said 1t sent shivers
down the back of the depositor.
"Why, Of course, Mr.. Naftzger, that
isn't my name. But you know it is
the name we agreed upon when !
deposited the money" well, how
would $4,000 dot" responded the
banker. The depositor looked into
his eyes to see If he were Kidding"
him--and then he went and wrote
a check for $4,000 and It was paid.
And the lawyers say that 1t was the
sleuthing Of this man that has
brought Naftzger to the door Of the
penitentiary. Which little tale Of
greed and vengeance seems to war
rant the comment that once in a
while the right thing happens to two
crooks.-Iola Register.

REMARKABLE RECORD
Flesh Forming Food That Succeed,
Nearly Every Time.

A man or woman might as well
starve outright as to take food into
the stomach and not have it assirni-
lated, yet in Topeka as well as in every
other town and city. there are many
people who are thin, pale and seen,
underfed, simply because the food they
eat is not assimilated, and fails to
make good blood and firm flesh.
Samose, the wonderful fIesh-fornaine-
food, taken before or after meals,
mingles with the food, so that It is as
simulated by the system and makes
rich blood and pleasing plumpness, No
one can use it for week or ten DAYS
without noticeable gain in weight.
Statistics show that out of every one
hundred people who commence the use
of Samose, SO will find a full gain in
weight and restoration of health and
strength.
Anyone who is thin, weak. scrawny
and emanciated can put soc on deposit
with Geo. w. Stansfield druggist. 632
Kansas ave, Topeka, and take home a.
box of Samose. If the treatment does
not give a noticeable increase in good,
firm flesh and restore strength and
health. he will return the money with
out any questions.
