CLOSING PLAN IN FORCE

For several months past the dry
goods stores have been closing al
1880 p. M, during the hot weather
The firm of A. P. Eddington is put
ting on special sale and has decided
to stay open longer during the even
ings for the benefit of their city trade
during the sale which will probably
last until after the first of September
when It will be cooler, and then prob
ably the closing hours for the other
firms will be changed. The firms who
will continue to close at the usual
hour of 1880 are, Frank G. Boles,
Chas. Summers & Sons, Land &
Thayer, Cut Rate Store, Atha Bros,
Belt Shoe Store, and the Variety
Store. While the other firms are not
antagonistic to their trade and do not
want the public to feel that they are
staying with the plan just for per-
sonal reasons, they feel that 1t is
only a benefit to their clerks to give
them the few hours in the evening.
On the other hand, Mr.. Eddington
has the privilege and right to stay
open If he Is benefiting his customers,
and since the original plan expires in
September, the few weeks interven-
ing will not make much difference in
the accommodation to the public.

Press dispatches indicate that
George A. Neeley, the representative
In Congress from this district, Is
making a determined fight to have
incorporated in the Glass-Owen cur
rency bill certain features which he
believes are necessary in order to
give to the country the kind of cur
rency system that conditions demand.
Neeley was a member of the commit
tee which made an exhaustive in
Vestigation of the money trust dur
ing the last Congress. He went into
the subject deeply and posted himself
thoroughly as to the weaknesses Of
the present currency system. From
the facts brought forth by the in
vestigation, he formed some well-de-
fined ideas as to the character of leg
islation needed to give the country
the right kind of monetary system.
He fought stubbornly for his ideas
when the Glass bill was under con-
sideration by the Committee on
Banking and Currency and when the
bill was before the committee for
final action, he refused to vote for a
favorable report on the measure be-
cause, in his judgment, 1t does not
fully meet the situation. Two of his
democratic colleagues ON the commit
tee voted with him and another,
while voting for favorable report,
stated his determination to join with
Medley in fight before the demo-
cratic caucus for the amendments
for which Medley is contending. The
chief things for which Neeley is fight
ing are an amendment prohibiting in
terlocking directorates and an
amendment authorizing the federal
reserve district to discount paper Sc
cured by corn, wheat and cotton,
duly insured and in bonded ware
houses, for short-time loans. In re-
jecting the former amendment,
Medley declares that the committee
acted in direct opposition to the last
democratic national platform and
contrary to the findings of the Pujo
committee. In turning down the lat
ter amendment, he says that the com
mittee failed to give proper recog-
milton to the producers of the thir-
teen billion dollars of agricultural
products raised last year in the
United States. Neeley Is determined
that the currency bill shall not lack
any of the features which he and
many of his colleagues believe to be |
vital and he is demonstrating that he |
has the courage of his convictions. |

words In behalf of the amendment
Kansas is the infant State in the
suffrage movement. While we have
had woman suffrage in one form or
another in educational and munich
pal affairs perhaps longer than most
OF the States, we have had complete
woman suffrage, equal suffrage, only
since the last general election.
Last year the Kansas women mod
estly, but earnestly, without flourish
of trumpets, asked the men to grant
them this right. and we generously
responded by a most decisive vote.
No nobler women, no more devoted
wives, or more loving mothers. and
no better housekeepers can be found
anywhere on earth, and we have no
fears of their losing these excellent
qualities by extending that which of
right belongs to them congratu-
