BRooMs ARE CHEAPER NOW.
Topeka Manufacturer Says That Mr.
Wilson Is Mistaken.

The manager of the Topeka Broom
Manufacturing company, takes excep-
tions to the statement of Representa-
tive c. L. Wilson, of Greeley county,
that brooms are selling for more this
year than last, while broom corn brings
less money in the market Mr. Wilson
proposed to have a state broom plant
established at the Hutchinson reform
atory. The Topeka broom dealer has
the following to say in regard to the
matter:
Broom makers, according to Mr..
Wilson, seem to be holding up the
prices to the consumer. I wish to say
that Mr.. Wilson surely is not posted
on the subject he has written about
or he would not have made the state
ments he did OF course the consumer
does not know the cost of producing a
dozen b-ooms.
1T is true, as Mr.. Wilson says, that
the farmers received $3.50 per ton for
their broom corn last year, but brooms
you remember, were retailed at 40 to sc
cents each and not 20 to % cents each
any one that has to purchase a broom

NOT LOVE But SLUSH.
DR.. Thomas McClary Says "Tender
Passion Is Nisnamed.

ssWhat people often call love today is
the kind that makes a man kill a
woman because he says that he loves
her." declared DR.. Thomas McClary,
the Irish orator of Chicago in the
course of an address at the Novelty
theater sunday afternoon This love
that the people of today talk about is
slush and should not be called love by
any thinking Christian man.
what is the definition of the word
love? 1t is not the stuff that makes a
man love a woman so much he is COM
PEELED to kill her. 1t is not the ami
NAL nature in man that wants to be
with his mate. The little verse, God
is love- is the best definition of love of
which I know.
God s love comes in contact with
men and saves them. and we are par
takers of the divine nature. When
God sends his love into the hearts OF
men you find something that will re-
main throughout all ages.

Pastor Says He Can't Be True to L

Meriden, Conn, Jan. 9.-The Rev.
Dubois H. Loux, pastor of the Center
Congregational church. who mas en-
braced Socialism and written a novel
presenting his theories of modern So
cial problems, read his resignation as
pastor at the morning service Sunday.
In this letter he said:

is playin 6 fast and loose with the
principles for which Christ died. 1t

STILL HEAR FROM CLUB.
Sylvia Girls Flooded Witt. Correspond

siderable fame by organizing an Anti
Tightwad club are still hearing from
II, aitnougn the club was disbanded
several weeks ago.
Letters and poStals are coming
from almost every state in the union
to u.s." said one of the officers of the
club Il have box full of letters
which l have received. Some of them
cize us, some being real mean. But
most of them are rather joshing. one
came from an old woman who gave
lot of motherly advice.
But the worst feature about this
letter and postcard busin ess at least
from the viewpoint of the mothers of
the girls, is that the Johnny boys are
taking advantage of it. Several of the
girls, whose names figured in the clubs
roster, are being bothered now by let
tiers from young men attempting to
strike up correspondence with them
why, I have had letters from Wich-
tia, Kansas City, st. Louis and even
one from New York City," said one of
the girls 'They wanted me to CORE
spond with them. let papa answer
them. 1 bet they won't write again.
One Kansas City youth, a stenog-
rapher for telephone company. was
not content with correspondence. He
wrote one of the girls, telling her that
he was coming to see her a few days
ago.
"Well, we'll make him feel at
home,' remarked the girls father
''We'll all go down to the depot to
meet him"
Sure enough, papa, mamma and the
whole family marched down to the

was somewhat taken abaolz to be met
by such a reception. He was es-
pecially disconnected to find that the
young woman whom he had come to
see is a school girl of IA.

were over IA. Most of them are but
IL years old.

ADKINS IS OPPOSED.
Speaker of Illinois House Wants No
Investigation of Last Session.

Chicago, Jan. 9.-Charles Adkins,
speaker of the Illinois house of repre-
sentatives, who spent Sunday in Chi
cago, said last night that he is opposed
to an investigation by the present
house of any of the acts of the last
legisture.
Speaker Adkins said:
Il will not say whether there was
anything wrong with the last legis-
lature or not. I will not say that any,
body has been guilty of wrong doing.
will say that public confidence in the
Illinois legislature is gone, and it seems
to me that the greatest thing for the
speaker to consider is how to restore
that public confidence and have the
people say the Illinois legislature is On
the square.
THAT question overshadows all 9TH
ers with me. I believe that if this leg
islature will pass the next appropria-
ton bills, for paying the expenses Of
our public institutions, and state gov
eminent and go home and have the
people say the Illinois legislature is
on the square, we will have accomplish
ed a greater feat than Wellington when
he defeated and sent to exile the am
bilious Napoleon.

EXTRACTION BLOCKED.
Habeas Corpus Proceedings in Case of
Porter Charlton.

Trenton, n. J.. Jan. 9.-The habeas
corpus proceedings to prevent the ex-
tradition of Porter Charlton to Italy
to stand trial for the murder of his
wife, Mary Scott Castle Charlton,
again came before Judge Rellstab in
the United States circuit court here
today. The department of state at
Washington has honorcd the request
of the Italian government for Charl-
toms extradition, but thine turning
over of the young man to the Italian
authorities was blocked by Paul Charl-
ton, the prisoners father, who applied
for the writ of habeas corpus.
Among the preliminary questions to
be decided in considering the writ of
habeas corpus is whether the United
States circuit court. through a writ of
certiorari can compel the state de-
partment at Washington TO produce all

the two countries on the subject of

FINANCIAL SKY CLEAR.
The Carnegie Trust co. Clouds Are
Swept Away.

New York, Jan. 9.-The financial
horizon was clearer as a result of con-
ferences held last night to provide
against any unsettling of the stability
of financial organization allied with
the Carnegie Trust company.
One thing appeared to be plain,
namely, that the trouble of the Car
negie company and its allies was in
an isolated condition and not indica-
tive of any widespread trouble in the
financial world
At the Twelfth Ward bank, having
headquarters in the Harlem, there was
a group of perhaps fifty persons in
line early in the day. Nervousness was
manifested by some of the depositors,
particularly foreigners who had not
been apprised of the events of over
night, but banking officials took steps
to allay this feeling. Many went
away without carrying out their in
tention to withdraw funds.
AS an indication of the general feel
ing in financial quarters prices on the
stock exchange showed fractional gains
in majority of stocks and the market
was moderately active. Some of the
leading stocks showed advances.

JACKSON HAS A PLAN.
Would Force All Corporations to Take
Out State Charters.

In his biennial report to the COVER
nor, Attorney General Jackson makes
the recommendation that the legisla-
ture amend the charter law SO that
foreign corporations will be denied
entrance into Kansas entirely. The
only recourse of the foreign corpora
tons then would be to become do
nestle corporations and pay the state
charter fee.
1t will be remembered that the Pull
man and Western Union companies
appealed to the supreme court and
there won decision against the state
whereby they escaped payment of
charter fees. Mr.. Jackson had these
cases in mind when he made his rec
concentration. Commenting on this
part of his report, Mr.. jackson said:
Personally 1 am of the opinion that
the logical and most practical thing to
do is to refuse admission to transact
business in Kansas to all foreign COR
porations. This would necessitate the
formation of domestic corporations by
all the individuals and interests who
desire to enter the state. A reasonable
time could be given to the foreign COR
porations transacting business to COM
ply with the law. May thought is that
in this way the amount of capital en-
ployed in this state could be definitely
ascertained and the question of con-
flict of power between this state, the
der whose laws the corporations seek
ing to do business in the state were in
corporated would be entirely obviated.
The question of the rights of such cor
porations and their stockholders to re-
sort to the federal courts for relief
under state regulations and in cases
involving controversies with citizens of
our state in the transaction of their
local business would also be greatly
simplified by such law"

ANHUI HAS FAMINE.
Reports Confirm Earlier Advices That
Chinese Are Suffering.

Shanghai, Dec. 13.-Present reports
confirm earlier advices of the suffering
from famine in a district in the north
ern part of the province of Anhui,
n -th and east of the Hwai and Kwo
rivers, about 1000 square miles in ex-
tent and containing population of APP
proximately 2,050,000 people. The fam
inc was caused by the destruction of
fall crops through floods resulting from
the heaviest summer rainfalls on rec
ord.
Thousands of refugees have left the
district but many of those unsuccess-
full in seeking support elsewhere are 81
ready returning, preferring to die in
their native place. 1t is estimated that
a million people, hard working farm
ers, will be dependent upon charity for
their existence until the spring crops.
Robber bands as early as Septembe-.
desperate at the prospect of starvation.
and some of them we'll armed, travelled
through the country, pillaging, terror
izing and killing. Serious trouble was
only averted by the bringing in Of
troops over the new Tientsin-Pukeu
railroad, and by many executions of
robbers in the Yamens or government
compounds.
Twenty-three inches of rain, it is re-
ported, fell in "a hours at one time of
the rainy season and the resultant
floods swept away hundreds of villages.
Thousands of the people are reported
to have been drowned. A railroad
bridge is said to have choked up with
bodies and debris. The highest places.
untouched in ordinary floods. were
from one to three feet under water.
The people have been left so poo-
that they are able to plant only one
third or one-half of the usual amount
of wheat sown. It will thus take sew
eral years for the region to recover.@It
is expected that the government will
send relief The people and the gentry
are also DESTROYS of foreign aid and
Chinese and foreign relief committees
have been organized.

but he proposes him for the place any
way and speaks of his fitness as fol-
lows:
THE various elements of Republican,
ism are seeking candidates for governor
in two years. H. B. Miller of Usage
City, is a man against whom no posi-
BILE objection could be raised, and he
could muster the discordant party ele-
ments into fighting force which would
assure success. Tom McNeal says the
present conditions indicate a Demo-

publicans generally can get together.
