only haveya right to express their views,
but their suggestions ought to be OF

: We reject with indignation the
thought that women viii introduce the
element of diseord into the association.
On thescontrary, their very presence will
tend to prevent the use of incorporate
language, and will inpart dignity to
the proceedings. We submit that in its
operation the experiment of admitting
women to membership, will be an un-

The District Bull Mooses.

We are glad that the recent sugges-
tion in The Washington Herald to the
effect that the District ought to be rep
resented at the Bull Moose Convention
is not to pass unheeded. There is to
be at least one delegate from this city.
For territory which has no vote in
the electoral college there is tre-
mendous amount of political activity in
Washington. We breathe the atmos-
phere of politics with our infant
breath, and when we grow up we thrill
with excitement over the lively contest
between J. Fred. Kelley and the cohorts
of Costello. We follow with bated
breath the mysterious meanderings of
Bradshaw and Chase, and fill the air
with loud acclaim when the Hon
Edgar c. Snyder addresses the Repub-
lican League upon the burning issues of
the day.
Very proper is it, therefore, that the
Bull Moose contingent should add to
the gayety of nations in general and of
the District OF Columbia in particular
We have not the slightest idea how the
District can help the bullmoosian cause
but this is none of our concern. We
merely express our feeling of unadul-
terated JOY because the District is not
to be ignored.

SWATTING THE MULBERRY.

From the Emporia Gazette.

From the Empoia Gazette.
There are scores of mulberry trees in
Emporia, and through most of the year
| they do the part of well behaved trees,
spreading their grateful shade and adding
to the beauty of streets and parkings.
But at this season the mulberry tree is

The birds enjoy the muIberries, too, and
friends of the birds like to see them help
themselves, but the fly peril is so much
greater than any possible good that can
come from the trees that the Gazette
would like to see every mulberry tree in
Emporia converted into stovewood
Mulberry trees bordering the sidewalks
drop their fruit on to the walks and peo-

And the berries were eaten raw as

Soil Sappers-

From the Rochester PoSt-Exprrss
That magnificent agricultural domain
lying between the Mississippi River and
the Rocky Mountains forty years ago
was Just entering upon the threshold of
its farming possibilities. Farms wers
given away for the asking to any ona
who would live upon them. Land pror>
ligacy was encouraged by the NatIonar
Government. and it was generally be-,
lieved that there never would be an end
to free farms. The ease with which
crops were produced on the virgin soils
of the new West caused the settlers
from the East TO lose that skill as soiE
conservers. which they had attafner
through necessity on the old Eastern
farms. and they became not real rarm-
ers. but soil sappers and miners. In the
short space of forty years the great
Trans-Miss!ssippi Valley has reached It's
high tide of rural population. and is now
on the decline, the soil miners having
pushed on and on into new lands in tna
Far West and the Canadian Northwest.
TO continue their work OF soil depletion
through the one-crop system. The MS
tory OF American farming. except IN
some of the older sections is a record
of profiigate waste of natural resources
and soil fertility. and IL is being re-
peated on an extensive scale on tina

KANSAS CITY
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author of "At Good Old siwa.h.~
BY GEORGE FITCH,

Kansas City, the largest and loudest
city in the Middle West. is located be-
side and occasionally under the Mis-
souri, River. The city is in Missouri.
but is so close to the State line that
about 100000 of it's inhabitants have
spilled over into Kansas. where they
are irretrievably lost for census pur-
poses In spite of this, Kansas City
has 25O.00O citizens who do as much
work and make as much noise doing
II as a million New Englanders-
Kansas City was first located beneath
the bluffs of the Missouri. but climbed
these bluffs with great eXertion many
years ago and. has now spread over
several dozen hills in a manner which
makes a ride in a Kansas City street
car resemble a trip in a scenic railway.
The business section occupies two hills
and a valley, and the quickest way to
get down to Main street is TO sit down
on Ninth and slide or take an elevator
on the ground floor of Grand Avenue
building and go down four stories.
Kansas City cellars are made of rock
and have to be pried out with dyna-
mite whenever a building Is inserted
in them. Digging cellars is favorite
Kansas City excitement. and the resi-
dent who has not been shot in the
neck with a Jagged piece of real estate
Is not considered naturaliZed.
Kansas City started out TO become
the metropolis of the world in 1890. but
after building an elevated railroad and
10000 real estate Offices it sustained 4
puncture and ran with a fiat wheel for
many years. II is now growing at the
rate OF 10000 people per decade, and
will eventually pass New Orleans. MIL

More Jolts,for the Chief Bull Moose.

\ There is, good, deal of vitality left
in the old Republican party. That all
of the progressive Republicans should
follow Mr.. Roosevelt into a third party
was unthinkable, except by the colonel
himself. We have shown in these col
umns that in every State some of the
most distinguished of Roosevelt men
have baked at the sthird party scheme
and have returned to their old allie
glance; especially is this the fact in
States where there was no need of a
progressive ticket. Illinois seems to be
the center of this sort of disaffection.
The Roosevelt men threatened to put
jim third ticket if the State officers did
mot tome out for Roosevelt. We have
discussed the result before. Gov. De-
neen came out for Taft. The result was
that Roosevelt has lost the support of
e. w. Sims, of Chicago. This man
was appointed United States District
Attorney there by Roosevelt. When
Taft declined to reappoint him he be-
crme strongly anti-Taft and was ready
to leap into the Roosevelt band wagon.
He fought for the eoaoners nomination,
but he cannot be persuaded that De-
neen'ss s-administration should be at
tackled through the sorganizing of a
third State ticket
Senator, La Toilette, in his magazine
last week. demanded that progressive
Republicans ,remain' in their party and
not lend aidl to an independent move
ment The Senator is not consistent
when he advocates one thing and does
quite another, for he does not hesitate
at all TO join hands with the Demo-
Gratis in the Senate in putting through
any measure he favors ,and which he
argues to himself will be offensive to
the Republican majority. But he does
not think of abandoning the label of
as long as it keeps him in
office Nevertheless, many progressive
will applaud his stand and
may even follow his example regard
less of his motives.
If Roosevelt suffers from losses from
loyal to their partys he also
loses those who wish to support Demo
Gratis for State Office, such as Batchel-
der of Vermont, who indorsed.the DEM
ocratic State ticket which is sure to
defeat the machine-made Republican
Roosevelt declined to permit
this and advised a third ticket, with the
result that Batchelder bolted-
1t is thorny path, this of organizing
a third party. There is interference
almost from every quarter. And in
this case the organizer has not even
the satisfaction that he is following a |
straight. honest, and consistent policy. |
But that may not worry Roosevelt
much, in the light of his attempt at
stealing the electoral votes pledged to
the regular Republican candidate.
