It IS ALL RIGHT NOW.
Gov. Hodges Recognizes Bull Moose
I'm Appointments Of III. j. Allen.

Never again can the Kansas Pro-
gressives urge that Governor Hodges
has ignored the leaders of the new
party. For today Governor Hodges
sent commission to Henry J. Allen
of Wichita, one of the real Bull Moose
leaders in Kansas. in which Allen is
appointed to the important position
as chairman of the Cosmopolitan
Health Commission.
To be sure the job which Allen
landed doesn't pay a salary. And to
be sure the only recompense is actual
expenses, providing there is anything
to do and occasion for expenses. But
1t Is an important job just the same
and the Wichita publisher will get a
real commission signed by the Demo-
cratic governor and decorated with
a big yellow seal of the state and two
yards of pink baby ribbon. And that
IN itself constitutes an appointment.
The Cosmopolitan Health Commits
sion was created at the request of the
association of public health officers
and members Of the commission are
named for term Of four years.
Members appointed by the governor
today are: Henry ]. Allen, Wichita;
Mrs. Fannie Cooper Atkinson, Par
sons; Prof L. s. Pinet, Parsons; DR..
J. w. May, Kansas City; DR.. Roy

At the CRYSTAL.

Daily change of program and first
run pictures.
Picture fans understand pretty well
that pictures are released to the pub

the country, SO that New York is not
favored over San Francisco. This
house this week inaugurated slight
change in policy in that it offers a
daily change of program and absolute
ly hrst-run pictures, insuring bright,
clear photography, free from flaws,
jumps or rainstreaks. Each change of
program will carry a two or three reel
feature. in addition to the usual COM
edy and drama. The display columns
of this paper show today's program
with ]. Warren Kerrigan as the head
liner. For the balance of the week the
features will be: Tuesday, Grace Cum

tress. in Lady Babbie,'' 3 reels; Thurs
day Levi. and McGinnis Running for

The trial Of Mendel Bellies, Russian

FOR MORE GAS.
Topeka Oficials Would Make
Pine Lines Common Carriers.
Bill Now in COngress-WOuld
Help Gas Situation.

The city of Topeka went on record
this morning as favoring the bill now
pending in congress to make natural
gas lines common carriers. Shoulo
this bill become a law it is figured
that persons in Oklahoma having gas
to sell, can merely build pipe line
from their gas wells to the line OF
the Kansas Natural Gas Company and
compel the Kansas Natural Gas Com
pany to deliver the gas to purchasers
in Topeka and charge only a reason
able rate for carrying the gas. 1t
would be up to the Interstate Com
fnerce Commission to determine what
a reasonable rate for the service
might be.
It would also be up to the local
gas company to buy the gas and as
much of it as there might be any
demand for, provided the price left
fair profit for the gas company.
AS there is plenty of competition
among owners of gas wells in Ok
lahOma, it is reasonable to expect
that the local company would be able
to buy at prices leaving a margin of
profit. But just what the position of
the local company might be on such
an arrangement is problematical, for
there is an impression that the local
company and the Kansas Natural are
very closely affiliated, but on this
point the state utilities commission
might have a voice.
The city commission went on rec
ord this morning in favor of having
natural gas pipe lines made common
carriers by adopting the following
resolution. introduced by Commits
sioner Roy Bone:
AN act, making natural gas pipe
lines common carriers, has recently
passed the senate Of the United States
and is now pending before the ma
tional house Of representatives; and
Whereas, the passage Of this ACT
will materially benefit the city Of To-
peka and other cities in our state
depending upon the supply of nat
ural gas for lighting, cooking and
heating; now, therefore, I move that
the mayor and commissioners of the
city of Topeka hereby express them
selves as favoring the passage of this
act and request and urge the Hon
D. r. Anthony. representative from
the First congregational district of the
state of Kansas, to use every effort in
his power to secure the passage OF
such act by the national house o,
representatives; and that the city
clerk be directed to notify the Hon
D. r. Anthony of this action on the
part of the mayor and commissioner.
