without any injury to the efficiency
of the public service in any depart
ment of the state government. Not
only this, but while we will lose two
hundred thousand dollars in revenue
on account of the repeal of the in
heritance tax law, we will gain three
hundred and fifty to four thousand
dollars in revenue by the enactment
which secures public revenue from a
source which ought to pay 1T instead
of from the widows and the children
of men who have spent their lives in
acquiring comparatively small estates
for the support of their families. In
addition to this there is pending legis-
lation which / believe will be enacted
into laws which will bring at least an
other one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars in revenue to the state treas
ury. The sum total of all this is that
the legislature of 1913 and this ad-
ministration will have found new
sources of revenue aggregating more
than half a million dollars.
l believe that can say, without
fear of contradiction, that no admin
istration or legislature of this state
within recent times has kept so many
of its important, principal pledges to
the people as the present one. We
have ratified the amendment to the
constitution of the United States by
which United States senators will be
elected by direct vote of the people.
We have modified our primary cleo
ton law so that United States sena-
tors will be nominated by plurality
of the votes in the whole state. We
have passed the Massachusetts ballot
law, which not only puts a premium
on intelligent voting, but puts an eff
fective barrier in the way of fraudu-
lent voting. We have revOlution1zed
the methods of transacting the bust
ness of the state institutions; all the
important state institutions will here
after be in the hands of three boards,
instead of in the hands of numerous
Independent boards and each of these
three boards will have control of the
institutions which fall within the
same classification. This system is
to and I believe will not only
increase the efficiency of our institu-
tions but result in large savings in the
administration of their affairs.
1 have long favored the state pub
LEGATION of school textbooks and it is
with the highest qualification that 1
seize upon the honor to put my name
to the bill which will make it a law
in this state.
The initiative, referendum and the
recall are in the hands of the confer
ence committee. You members of the
legislature can't go home and face
your constituents unless you cast your
vote for the conference committee re-
port. We asked for the responsibility
and it was given to us, and 1t remains
for this legislature to make good.
In Kansas 100000 intelligent wo
men will vote at the next election for
The family and the fireside. The party
that stands for the right will get the |
great majority, of these votes.

WILSON SHOCKED AT MURDER.
President-Elect Declines to Tell His
Intentions

Intentions.
Princeton, N. J., Feb. 24.-President-
elect Wilson was shocked to hear the
news that Madero and Suarez had
been killed in Mexico City
Its too bad he sighed when he
first learned of the shooting through
Associated Press dispatches He re
Trained from comment, saying he would
maintain his policy of silence until he
had taken office.
While nothing has come from Mr.
Wilson to indicate what his attitude
viii be, he has kept himself consistently
informed of developments by a careful
scrutiny of the news dispatches. dis
playing at all times a keen interest in
the progress of events in the trouble
ridden country.
Mr.. Wilson, it is known, had hoped
from the first that Mexico's problems
could find amicable settlement without
the least interference from the United
States. He realizes the gravity of de-
Velopments, however, and is studying
the situation earnestly. 1t is even de-
clared among some of his friends that
he may hasten the announcement of his
cabinet so he could avail himself at
once of their counsel on a situation
that will require the immediate atten-
ton of the new administration
