Right In this line, letter from p.
W. Hadcock. director OF physical cul-
ture at Christ church, Is interesting.
Mr.. Hadcock says In part;
Now, to be frank and to give the
opinion of one who Will have very
little to do with the workings of the
league. / am OF the opinion that to
have the games played on less num-
Der OF fields will be strict advan-
tage. You can say this much for US
here: We win keep our field in the
beet Of shape. provide all the protec-
ton necessary. bases, ticket sellers
and ticket receivers, this also to in
ciude the tickets; the teams that use
the field to give us in return one
third of all money received at the
gate, they to have the other two
thirds to divide any way they may see
fit. / think that this is the best thing
that can be offered in this way, and
also want you to make clear that
there is nothing In this for us. except
the advertising that may benefit US
In an indirect way: but even this Is
worth while. Just what the other
fields can do along this line do not
know, but the above We can do and
will for our own members, and we
are OF the opinion that others can
use II and we viii be the gamers In
stead OF the losers.
Again please let me say that /
think q four-field league would be Of
vast importance, not because We hap
pen to have one of them, but for the
league as whole. And again let me
say that I am going to take the privi-
lege Of suggesting at any and all times
such things that think will help in
any way to make this thing a sue
cess.
Yours sincerely,

About Pensions.

Here is another paper which
believes as the NEWS does in
the matter of pensions. The
following is from the Mail and
Breeze, edited by Tom McNeal:
am sorry that the Sulloway
pension bill failed or, rather,
just died on the senate calendar.
This bill would have allowed
every honorably discharged vet
eran of the Civil war a pension
ranging from SIS to $50 a month.
1t would have temporarily raised
the expense for pensions, but not
for very long. Most of the vet
Grams are close to the three score
and ten mark and many of them
are over that. In the very ma
ture of things the number must
decline rapidly. Within five
years it is safe to say that half
of the veterans of the Civil war
now living will have answered
their last roll call and gone to
rest. In ten years from now
there will be only a feeble REM
naut left of the magnificent army
that marched with Grant and
Sherman and rode with Sherman.
The bill provided for a pension
of SIS per month for veterans
over 20, and $50 for those who
had reached the age of IS. This
would have kept these old men
in reasonable comfort the rest of
their lives. 1t would have done
away with special pension bills
and a host of useless employees
in the way of special examiners
and pension clerks. It would
especially be good thing in do
ing away with special pension
bills.
There is no doubt that a good
many worthy old soldiers have
gotten pensions by this special
legislation, but the principle of
it is wrong. 1t is a sort of grant
ing of special favors, making
fish of one and fowl of another.
Some old soldier who happened
to have a special stand-in with
his member of congress could get
a pension by special act, but
otherwise he couldn't, no matter
how much he deserved or needed
his pension.
The president has determined
to call a special session. / hope
the friends of the Sulloway bill
will push it again when congress
gets together in April.

New State Law Requiring Regis.
tration Of Births Offers no
Reduction for Twins or
Triplets.

Esau will not be the only one
who had a birthright. A law
soon be inserted in the statutes
of Kansas compelling every birth
to be registered, and the father
of the child, if it has one, or the
mother, will have to pay Csc for
having it registered. And there
will be no reduction for twins or
triplets, Roosevelt notwithstand.
ing. The bill which passed the
Kansas legislature was drawn
and advocated by the state board
of health. A state registrar of
births and deaths is to be ap-
pointed with a fat salary to look
after the good people of the state
and keep them supplied with ped
igrees. 1t will be the duty of
every physician to record every
birth which comes under his care
and charge the bill to Dad"
Each city will have a book and
they will all be transcribed in
the books of the state registrar
The state will be divided into
registration districts and the Off
GERS prescribed by law to look
after births and deaths will have
to collect and compile statistics
and keep the state registrars
books up to date.
This new law is received with
gladness by the people of Kan
Sas. Hereafter no child need be
in doubt as to the place or condi-
tions of his birth. No child need
grow old wandering who his par
ents are. If he becomes sceptical
on any point he may 60 and look
it up.
There is also a provision in
this law that will govern deaths.
Everyone must die according to
law. The death must be regis
tered and a small fee paid, and
no form of burial or disposal of
the body can be used until a reg
istration is made and permission
is received from the state board
of health. A failure to comply
with either the birth or burial
law will be punished by a fine.

Tax payers will be gratified to
learn that their rights are res
pected by the Kansas legislature.
A bill passed both houses pro-
viding a penalty of from So to
$50 for township treasurers who
fail to publish their annual
financial reports in the local
newspaper. These statements
must be itemized that the people
may know who receives the
money. Six years ago the law
made this requirement, but as no
peualty was attached it was not
generally enforced. It indicates
weakness on part of township
board or city council to fail to
publish their annual financial re-
ports in the local newspaper.
