1t is time for the Democratic papers
to get after the Democratic congress
and have it get after the print paper

1t has been ascertained that the ex-
act geographical center of the United
States is ten miles north of Smith Cen
ter. The Oberlin Times says when the
tenant who had for several years
farmed over the spot was told by
stranger of the newly discovered fact
he said: well. I'll be duHned. And
old Dell Lewis, who owns the land,
never heard cbout it either or he would
ha' raised the rent on me-.
Because the county commissioners
notified the threshing machine own
ers of Neosho county that the law
relative to planking culverts and
bridges must be obeyed, the owners
got together and decided that the
charge of threshing grain in the coun-
ty should be raised in order to pay
the expense incurred in obeying the
law. Wheat has been raised from
to 5 cents per bushel and oats one
half cent per bushel.
The following tribute to the memory
of a departed Kansan is taken from
the Lawrence Journal: The death OF
M. d. Sampson recalls that another
of the old timers has passed away. Mr..
Sampson was for many years the pub
Usher of the Salina Journal and he was
a power in the newspaper field. He was
a man of quiet ways but mighty eff
fective and held his own against all
corners. Mr.. Sampson was a very like
able man and his quiet manner was
such that he made a few personal
enemies but a lot of staunch friends.

state regulations of local commerce
and federal regulations of interstate
commerce need to be co-ordinated and
harm onized, it is not for the courts to
exercise their functions to this end, the
question lying entirely within the leg
islative domain of congress. In the
language of the constitution, powers
not delegated to congress are reserved
to the states. 1t appears now that
powers which are delegated and not
exercised also remain with the states.

We love you as you nod and sway,
Ger garden, Ger meadow and lea
SLIPPING each norn's first dewy ray;
Or caressed by the bumble-bee:
Following shafts of golden glow,
All agleam from the org of day,
Till ey'ning's dove-notes, plaintive, low,
Fill the woodlands shadowy way.
o! Golden flowers; memories bright,
Come flooding back from childhood's
day;
Summer joys-a mothers goodnight,
With the fragrance of new mown hay:
AS mingle in lifes busy throng,
There is e'er before me-and more,
A mothers face; a child's sweet song,
By a vine-covered cabin door.

In its decision of the Minnesota rate
cases the supreme court sustained in
almost every particular the conten-
tons of the state. The interstate COM
merce law and its successive amend
ments. says the court, left the powers
of the states to regulate commerce
within their respective borders just as
they were before. The authority of a
state to regulate local rates is subject
only to the constitutional safeguards
of property and personal rights. If

Washington, May Bit was learned
here today that the webb bill. in its
present form, is not satisfactory to
the Japanese government. Although
there is possibility of amendment in
the lower branch of the legislature or
in conference, the conviction obtains
that nothing remains to be done fdom
the Japanese point of view at present
but to await the return to Washing
ton of Secretary Bryan.
Then 1t will be in order to take the
matter up automatically, probably
the first lstep being to ascertain
whether the administration can be
counted on to require a legal test Of
the constitutionality of the new act.
If the question between the United
States and Japan should not be set
tied within the next three months, it
was intimated here today that Japan
might make formal request for the
submission of the issue to arbitration
at The Hague tribunal
The special arbitration treaty be-
tween the two countries, negotiated
in 1900, which is believed to cover
the case, Will expire by limitation un-

is VICTIM OF Al PECULIAR
ACCIDENT.


Henley, Eng May S.-Death by
the accidental discharge Of her own
shot gun, was the tragic tate this
morning Of the Countess OF Gotten
ham, wife OF the Earl Of Cottenham.
The countess twin sister. daughter
OF the marquis Of Asersavenny was
found dead in 1910 with a gunshot
wound through the heart in the
grounds of the family residence in
Oxfordshire
Today's affair was a mystery until
the EARL Of oCttenham testified at
the coroner's inquest at noon. He
said he had been out with his boys
and when he returned and found his
wife missing he instituted a search
which resulted in the discovery of her
body with the gun beside it near the
stump over which she had evi-
IDENTIFY stumbled, at the same time ac-
cidentally discharging the weapon.
The jury thereupon returned ver-
dict of accidental death.
