The Poultry Show

Mrs. A. R. Guyton Secretary of the
Bates county Poultry Association in
forms us that the outlook is indeed
bright for the poultry show to be
held in this city Nov. 4, 5, 81. Great
interest is being manifested, not only
by local breeders but by fanciers in
other states as well. Many well
known Kansas exhibitors have made
entry. The show will be held at 205

in any one year. Nearly half of the
students attending the University are
making their own way. The build
ings are overcrowded; the demands
constantly increasing.
In most of the states maintaining
Universities there is provided a per-
manent basis for support. Nebraska
has separate tax of 10 cents for her
University alone. Colorado has a
levy of 6 cents for the University.
OF the 38 states maintaining Universe
ties Missouri ranks 26th in per capita
cost of support.
The ninth amendment will not
make any institution independent
of the legislature. Appropriations
would be made by the General AS
sembly, which would determine the
amount each institution would re-
ceive. The only restriction is the
one which, following the language of
the present section of the Constitu-
tion, requires that Eat least twenty
five per cent" shall be used in aiding
public elementary and high schools,
the section under which the General
Assembly has for the past generation
appropriated one-third ofthe revenues
for the common schools.
We believe the proposed amend
ment should be adopted because it
would provide additional support for
the elementary and high schools, and
because it would provide certain in
come for the Normal Schools, Lincoln
Institute and all departments of the
State University; because it would
take the State educational institutions
out of competition with other institu
tons and activities of the State, and,
by releasing from the general rev.
enues the money which is now appro-
priated for their support and main
tenance, would allow the legislature
to make substantial appropriations for
good roads. The income of the State
educational institutions would still
be regulated by the legislature, and
would not be materially increased.
The source of the income, however,
would be fixed and certain, and def
mite plans based upon definite knowl-
edge of the resources could be made
for the conduct and improvement of
the institutions.
To put money into public education
is the best investment that can be
made of public funds. There is no
politics in the proposed amendment.
1t is for the development of the entire
educational system and merits the
support of all citizens. We appeal,
therefore, to every voter to vote

its cause. We of the north know

"The court is of the opinion that
the district court of Harvey county
had Jurisdiction to entertain the pc
tition filed therein and to issue a re-
straining order pending its examina-
tion Of the case. 1t Is further OF the
opinion that such petition does not
state a cause of action for a kind of
fraud cognlzable by a court of law
or equity. Assuming the fact stated
to be true, they were political in their
nature and the remedy of the plain
tiffs is by political methods. The
courts can not be called upon to de-
eide political matters further than
the statutes of Kansas do not, ex-
pressly or by implication, authorize
the granting of the relief asked Of
the district court of Harvey county.
ut Is assumed that the district
court of Harvey county will reach
the same conclusion and dismiss the
action pending before it. Upon such
dismissal the occasion for the pro-

ARTHUR P. CUTTER HERE
Eastern Emigration Agent of

About Liberal. Says
ItWill Be a City

Arthur P, Cutter, Eastern Emmi-
grafton Agent for the r. l. was in
town Wednesday, and was at his
same old game of boosting for the
Southwest, and he undoubtedly is
one OF the greatest boosters for the
Southwest that the country has ever
known. He says that what we need
more than anything else Is good sub.
stantial farmers TO come In here and
settle on this fine land and stay here
and FARM 1t, not buy 1t for specu-
lation. And he says they will come,
for he Will bring them. "The time
has come when Liberal must do some
boosting, and the more she jumps in
and helps me the better 1t will be
for you folks, and the quicker this
will be a city OF good size. Liberal
has the qualifications Of a real city,
and | am sure it will make a big
town. Now why in the world don't
the commercial men OF the town ap-
point good, real alive booster and
keep him in the east, working, with
my my cooperation, to send good
settlers to this country. Do that!
YOU Fellows" These were about
the words OF Mr., Cutter, and they
show that the R. l. has great conf
dence In Liberal and this country
One thing which is very impressive,
1t, that during his stay here Mr..
Cutter became so we'll pleased with
the town that he purchased some
lots in the Light addition, through
