The new firm of Grob & Bingham is
rapidly gaining favor with the patrons
of the community, who have found in
the members of the firm accommodat.
ing gentlemen, loyal to the interests of
the town and always striving to please.
These maxims are not without results
for the store is coming to be more and
more trading headquarters for our peo-
pie. The Friday and Saturday sales,
advertised in this issue, are simply a
continuation of bargains in the grocery
line, the special bargain days having
been begun some weeks ago. The plan
was adopted in order to encourage new
patronage and bring the firm INTO closer
touch with the people Of the commun-
ity, IN addition to giving cash customers
run for their money, and remarkable
success has resulted.

WAR OVER INHERITANCE TAX.
Kansas Democrats Disagree As to .
New Law.

Topeka, Dec. 9.-Already trouble
is brewing among the Democratic
members of the legislature about
the inheritance tax law. Governor
elect Hodges favors a repeal of the
present law and the enactment OF
one that will make a tax only on
collateral heirs. Some members OF
the legislature are in favor Of this
plan. Others want the entire law
repealed at once and without any
thing to take its place. Other mem
bers are demanding that the Inherit
ance tax law stand but no estate ex-
cept where the share Of each ex-
ceeds $4,000 or $4,000 should be
taxed. Others want the widow ex-
empted entirely and the children
taxed.

HADLEY ON REORGANIZATION.
Discussed Plan With Both Sides al
Washington.

Washington, Dec. 9.-Governor
Hadley of Missouri conferred Satur-
day with Senators Borah, Kenyon
and LaFollette, on plans for the re-
organization of the Republican par
ty. 1t became known that practically
all of the Republican governors at
the Richmond conference informally
discussed such reorganization. Gov
ernor Hadley spent an hour on the
senate floor discussing plans with
the Republican senators. He talked
with both regular and progressive
Republicans and allowed it to be
known that he is in hearty accord
with the proposition to hold con-
vention next year for the considera-
ton OF various reforms, which in
cluded the curtailment Of the repre-
sentation of the southern states in
nominating conventions.

served with a summons. Under this
idea a woman could come to Kansas
one day, have the papers drawn for
divorce proceeding against her
husband and then have the sheriff
serve him with the summons any
time he happened to be in the coun-
ty, even though he was on a train
travelling through the state. Neither
one would necessarily have to be
residents OF the state for any time,
1t simply being a matter OF catch
ing the defendant in the county
where the suit was filed.
The supreme court held that the
legislature in amending the law did
not intend that Kansas should be Q
field for easy divorces and that the
amendment to the old law did not
destroy the requirement of q resi-
dence for year before a divorce
proceeding could be brought.
Mrs. Asling was refused divorce,
the supreme court sustaining the
ruling of the Dickinson county court.

Lawrence, Kan, Dec. Radical
changes in criminal law procedure
for Kansas we're advocated here to-
day by Judge c. A. Smart of OF
tawa. president Of the society OF
criminology.
He advanced the idea that prison
ers should be paid share Of their
earnings while in the penitentiary
and that citizens found innocent OF
the crime OF which they were ac-
cused should be paid for the time
they were held prisoners.
1.-THE innocent should no longer
be punished for the crimes of the
guilty, as is the prisoners family,
declared the Judge. "The state should
no longer take his earnings from
his wife and children. Nor should
an innocent citizen suffer the bur-
dens of prosecution. The public,
for whose benefit he is punished,
should repay him for his loss
A pension law for worthy and
needy mothers, the raising OF the
age for compulsory education from
fourteen to sixteen years and the
abolition of the fee system for the

among the important changes in the

suggested that the present So state

Another suggestion is that the pres

and a reasonable specific tax levied
