Washington, May 1.-THE gov
ernment's money laundry" will be
in fun swing this week when the
treasury department will begin the
operation OF four currency washing
machines. turning out daily 100000
washed and ironed notes which
otherwise would be destroyed.
1t is claimed the laundry will save
the government a half million, dol

has arranged to reduce the working
force of the bureau OF engraving
and printing-the governments
mandatory of money. by 400 en-
ployes, principally plate engravers
and their helpers, although It Is said
that probably not more than 80 or
80 printers will lose their lobb. Ad'

TO STOP SOIL DRIFT.
Commissioners Order Pawnee Farm
or to Cultivate His Farm.

Larned, May IA unique law
not generally enforced in Kansas
was dug up by the Pawnee county
recently when they
ordered the owners of property south
OF the d. s. Bowman farm to culti-
vate the land so as to prevent the
soil from drifting. Bowman com
planned to the commissioners the
soil from the land south Of his place
was drifting and covering his crops.
The law empowers commissioners Of
counties of under 10 900 population
to devise ways and means to prevent
the drifting Of soils, which has be-
come such q problem in many parts
Of western Kansas, especially Thorn
as county. The state agricultural
experts at Hays or Manhattan may
be called on for advice. Should 3
landowner refuse to comply with the
commissions order It Is empowered
to so cultivate the sOil ss to prevent
drifting and charge the expenses
againss the land e. taxes.

WILL ARGUE ON POLITICS.
G. r. Scott and H. j. Allen to Edify
the Chautauquas. !.

Topeka, May IA series OF
Joint debates. more than sixty in
number, has been arranged to be
given in Oklahoma, Kansas, Color
ado, Wyoming, South Dakota. Ne
braska and Missouri, upon Republi-
canism VS.. Progressiveism. Former
Representative Charles F. Scott OF
Kansas upholds the former, and
Henry Allen is his opponent. The
chautauqua managers expect to real
lie largely by appealing to the poll
cal interest in these states, and they
are not likely to be disappointed.
The attractiveness Of politics is per-
ennial. 1t is the one subject, next
to religion, which appeals to the
universal mind and fl thus a sure
foundation for a business venture;
Incidentally there joint debates are
likely to have some effect upon the
next campaign.

GOOD BYE BIRD DOGS.

The recent Kansas legisla-
ture dealt a heavy blow on
the owners of good bird dogs
and every fellows bird dog
is absolutely the best dog in
the world-when it passed a
law prohibiting the shooting
of quail and prairie chicken
for the next five years. What
will be done with the good
bird dogs in the mean time?
Nothing for the pointers and
settlers and retrievers to do
but harbor fleas for the next
five years unless the own
ers want to spoil them for
bird use by hunting rabbits
and squirrels with them.
But you can't please every
one with the laws. The
sportsman who waits five
years for his bird hunting
win have a whole lot more
OF Il than he would have e
be went at Il next year.

ing a resolution which fav0rs the ex
penditure by the state OF large annual
sums for roads. According to their
plan the state would raise at least
$500, 900 for this purpose by the levy
ing Of taexs. Whether or not the
propnsitiun advanced here is ever put
into effect by legislative enactment,
1t is certain that appropriations for
road improvement will always be lib.
eral In this state.
The last few assemblies have been
favorable to the good roads movement
and at the last election proposition
was submitted to the people for the
issuance OF bonds for road building.
1t was contemplated to use about one
million dollars year for ten years
but the people rejected the bond is
sue The defeat was not due tn the
fact that good roads are opposed by
the people. 1t was caused mainly by
the immense number of propositions
on the ballot. Good measures suffered
with the bad, the people feeling that
it was the best course to vote against
all propositions on which they were
not fully posted.
Colorado is strong for goud roads
and eventually some proposition like
that suggested at the Pueblo gather
ing will be adopted In the state. Th9
year Colorado had the benefit Of q
large internal Improvement fund to
draw from and this was appOrtioned
tn the various counties for use. With
