Bank Commissioner Dolley to- charge
and assume that the Taft men are o.
posed to a primary because they think
a primary might result in the selection
! of Roosevelt. Nothing of the sort. The
Taft men are practical They believe
in progress and progressiveness but
they also believe in Davy Crockett's
motto: BE sure you are right, then
crack ahead" They are not necessar-
lily opposed to primaries but they are
opposed to alleged primaries which are
impracticable. They regard a state
wide primary about as they would
Kansas City Star straw vote, unreli-
able as to giving the real sense of the
present day situation. The Taft peo-
pie are opposed to primary and after
this week, the Roosevelt people are
likely to be opposed to it; both for
the same reason; namely, that there
is no way of carrying it on; no way
of raising the money and no way of
safe guarding honest results.
The proposed presidential primary is
for simply the one purpose of naming
delegates to the National Convention.
In the first place. this is Illegal in Kan
sas because the National Committee
has stated that where no primary laws
exist the delegates must be chosen by
a convention. That ought to settle
that If anything more is needed. there
is absolutely no way of raising the
money to hold the expensive primaries
at The polling precincts. If there were
local or state officers to select, they
could be assessed and the money raised.
If a statewide primary should be held, !
there would be nothing to prevent
members of any party from voting, |
neither would there be anything to pre-
vent repeating anymore than there
would be in a straw vote. 1t might be
a good deal like holding straw vote in
each precinct and crowds of people |
could go along, have a good time and /
help out the voters in each precinct, or
as many precincts as they desired to
visit.

LITTLE DANCER OF FLOODS

LITTLE DANGER OF FLOODS.
Every hour you will meet people who
are AFRAID that when the snow goes
of there will be a flood. A majority
of the people now in this country never
saw so much snow before. Any person
under 70 years old. who has always
llNeu In this country, never saw 20
ihuch snow. But to the old timers IL
mas mas no particular interest. They kno
now such SHOWS go off. They have
seen them before. In the first place, q
snow ike we have now. where most OF
IL Is IN drifts and piled up in the VAL
ieyS ana low places. canot go of rs
qulckiy as snow that is spread out
equally over the whole country. Then,
when snow begins to melt. the snow
on the south side of a hill will melt
nrst' and the snow on the north side
VIII melt last. Then the snow being
mostly In large drifts will melt slowly.
SO there is no danger of any high water
from this snow, in fact. most OF Il will
go INTO the ground. The writer spent
one winter in Montana some 20 years
ago. In that country they have what
is called the Chinook winds, and such
a snow as we have here now would no-
pe CONSIDERED big snow in that coun-
try, and the Chinook winds would take
It on In two days.-Frankfort Index.
DRAGGING THE ROADS.
Every farmer should see to IL that the
Ioaos along his land are properly dragged
when they are in the proper condition to
drag There are few who are attending
10 TINS, and then there are a great many
VINO are Indifferent to the matte- Nest
especially should the roads be dragged
over which the mail routes run, as II IS
certainly of interest to everybody along
the routes to see that this work IS done.
Tor the better shape the roads are kept
the better service you will get on the
routes, and besides that IL the roads; are
allowed to get too bad there is a possi-
bllity of losing the service along such
roads. But, regardless OF this, every
farmer should have enough pride about
himself to want to keep the road along
his place in the best of condition, and
there is nothing that will come nearer do
ing that than using the road drag al the
proper time.-Halstead Independent
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1912-03-12

This paper is thoroughly in favor of
primary to select city. county and
state officials because the law provides
for it and it is better method than
the convention method. Some people
do not favor this. They are in favor
of the convention system, but every
body ought to be in favor of caucus
and convention for presidential pur-
poses under present conditions. The
Roosevelt people will have just as
good a chance one way as the other.
Chairman DolIey is simply talking
for expression when he makes the
ridiculous statement: This move
ment to defeat a presidential primary
is not so much with the idea of help
ing Taft as it is to cut off Roosevelt.
That's the idea they have; to put
Roosevelt out of the running
Well, if, as Stubs, Dolley and
White would have US understand. the
state is overwhelming for Roosevelt,
you can't put him out of the running.

Our governor. we regret. to say. has
misled the great and good and ad-
mired Colonel Roosevelt. The latter
was made to believe that there was an
Overwhelming popular demand for
him. He did not want to be a candi-
date, urged his friends not to seek
delegates. Now that he has been
forced into the race, the demand does
not seem to be so overwhelming as
it was said to be. Governor Stubs is
obliged to take the stump to try to
create a demand. Headquarters have
been opened everywhere to exploit the
third term movement. Colonel Roose-
welt, who did not desire to get into
the campaign, is now being dragged
into it. Governor Stubs is even urg-
ing that Roosevelt come way out here
to Kansas to exploit his own cause.
If this state is so overwhelming for
Roosevelt, why not advise the colonel
to devote his time and speeches to that
part of the country where the third
term movement is not so popular as
Governor Stubs says it is in this state.
It seems to be difficult to work up
the people to Governor Stubs idea
that there is a great crisis pending,
such a crisis as this country never saw
twice before when the Civil
and the Revolutionary wars were on
When Taft is nominated in June
and when the Kansas City Star sup
ports Wilson, as it will support Wilson
if Wilson should be nominated or the
Democratic nominee, where will Gov
ernor Stubs be? And, where will
Arthur Capper be? Those two office
holders and office seekers will be, as
the boys say, up against it,

 There are one hundred and fifty mineral springs at this place, the waters of which are very beneficial. The Sulphur Spring near the Steam boat Cabin Hotel is pronounced by many the most wonderful in the state. It's waters are carbonated by nature and are sparkling and life-giving.
 There are also soda springs, iron springs, and others that are famous. The new bath house and swimming pool is supplied by natural hot springs, and is a popular source of recreation and enjoyment
 Steamboat Springs is truly won derful place, and bids fair to become the metropolis of Northwest Colorado.

In describ' ng the Arkansa Indians, who inhabited what is now known as the State of Arkansas before the white man came to America, an early explorer, Du Pratz, said, "I am so prepossessed in favor of this coun- try that I persuade myself that the beauty of the climate has a great influence on the character of the in habitants, who are at the same time very gentle and very brave.''
 Nature has been most wondrous kind to Arkansas. Among the many gifts bestowed upon her is one of almost ideal climate.
 dens are filled with gorgeous roses and our fields are white with har- vest, we enjoy that beautiful season known as Indian Summer.
 Statistics show that the average temperature during the winter months, is 45 degrees; and we have had no zero weather since 1899.
 Our mild winters are followed by early springs with an abundance of violets, jonquils, and dogwood; with out doubt this is our most beautiful season.
 It is not until the long, hot days anAsSniglts, thats fSllosN, tl'e11s <pellecl days of Jiine, that Pine Biuffians real ize the necessity of a vacation.

VACATION. NOTES

It must be admitted, however, that Colorado is the greatest favorite with Pine Bluffians. While Denver and Colorado Springs are greatly favored, to Manitou is given the lions share of the visitors.
 No more ideal place can be found to spent the summer than at the Cliff House, Manitou, which is situat ed at the foot of Pike's Peak. The friends and patrons of MT. E. E. Nichols, the proprietor of the Cliff House, will be glad to know that he has opened new hotel, The Metro pole, in Denver-advertise elsewhere in these columns.
 Steamboat Springs, Colorado, is comparatively a new summer resort but with it's many advantages and resources, described by MT. w. F. Coleman, and advertised in this pa per, it is sure of a great future.
 After the autumnal equinoxes ev- cry incoming train from the North, East and West brings lPne Bluffians who are glad to be home again; where the same influence, "the beau- ty of the climate exists as in the days of Du Pratz; and where it may still be said of the people as it was of tho ArkanSpS trihe thay are "VerV gentle and very brave."

among the coal producing States, and excels all other Colorado cities in it's attractiveness to the tourist and in vestor alike.
 1t derives its name steamboat Springs" from two springs about thirty feet apart, that alternately send up jets of water, making noise quite similar to that of the exhaust pipes on steamboat.
 Bear river flows by the town and other streams are ill easy reach, mak- ing this point the favorite resort of the fisherman.
 The valley about is very fertile, and grain, irish potatoes and other crops are so profitable that the farm ing industry is attracting many in- vestors.
 Strawberries have recently proven of great profit in this section, and as this crop comes in at time when the market is not supplied from other sections, is now attracting particular attention.
 Steamboat Springs has all modern improvements, waterWorks, electric lights, seam laundries, new hotels, and other convenienccs.
 As a summer resort, no more de- lightful spot could be found. "The Steamboat Cabin hotel is new, roomy, and home-like. and guests receive ev- cry attention that can add to their comfort and pleasure. The rates are moderate and within the reach ol all

 Our famous Hot Springs of Arkan- sas. with it's magnificent hotels and bath houses, is a favorite resort the year round with Pine Bluffians. They tourney to Hot Springs when they are i'll, when they are tired, and when in search of pleasure. Several of the largest hotels are only open dur ing the season." which follows the holidays. At such times Hot Springs Is filled to over flowing with capital ists and society folks from the North and East.
 Battle Creek, Michigan, with it's eel ebrared Sanitarium, is the mecca for a host of Pine Bluffians each year.
 Asheville, the mountains of North Carolina, and the Florida seashore, claim a good share of visitors from our city. The latter has become so popular that some of our most prOml- nent families, who spend part Of each year in Florida. have invested in homes.
 The summer resorts and hotels on the Great lakes, especially in and around Chicago, are other favorites. Many business men and their families spend their summer vacations on the Seashore near New York or in New England; and not few frequently cross the Atlantic.

 The summer months will soon bring a tidal wave of college bred to their happy homes, after nine months spent among strangers.

RESORT FOR PINE BLUFFIANS.

Colorado, the most wonderful of all the State in natural scenery, is perhaps the most popular resort of our people in the summer. The change is so complete an delightful in all respects, that few can resist the call to "cool Colorado"
 There is no more attractive spot to be found in this State that has tion, than Steamboat Springs, which lies across the second divide in Routt thee city of Denver, the queen of the prairies.
 The tourist leaves Denver at zoo a. m. over the "Moffitt Road" and ar rives at Steamboat Springs at zoo ). m. of the same day.
