GORDON MAKES REPLY
The Preacher Answers the Billiard
Letter ON Jail Conditions

Editor State Journal:
1 read with some sympathy ex-
Mayor Billiards. Saturday night jere-
miad on the local Jail jam. The pres
ent sad state of city affairs seems to
weigh heavily on his mind. 1 have
been wondering whether this vicar
1ouS burden is not too much for one
man to bear alone Why not request
the commissioners to appoint a group
of robust, onion-eyed ex-jointists to
sit on the ash heap with his excellency
and help him wall? If the ash heap
were enclosed a reasonable charge
might be made for admission to the
spectacle and perhaps enough be rails
ed in that way to build a more COM
mOdiOuS baStile. ~..o~
especially regret that I have been
an occasion of pain to this sorrow
smitten soul. He Things the orders to
his traffic men may have been too
strict and for this reason-"The Rev.
Robert Gordon was arrested and fined
SO for riding on the wrong side of
the street. This slight punishm ent
aroused the hatred of the Reverend
Gentleman and thereafter he made all
kinds of false charges, ISLANDERS and
misrepresentation against the police
department and the mayor" And he
holds his breath as he wonders what
might have happened had this dis
ciple of the Prince of Peace" been
sentenced to "the rock, pile
Now If the ex-mayor is really
mourning his too strict orders
thinking my activities against him
and his administration were occasion
ed by that fine, | can comfort him.
The arrest had nothing to do with it.
Cards were printed and in the hands
of several thousand people weeks prior
to that arrest announcing the fact
that I intended to speak on, '"The Pro-
hibitory Law and City Officials" Mr..
Billiard knew this at the time but he
has evidently forgotten.
1 can give some real consolation,
too, if his grief is caused by the
thought that "a Reverend Gentleman"
should have indulged in false
charges, ISLANDERS and misrepresenta-
tions." I did make charges against
Mr.. Billiard and his administration.
They were definite and serious and
they were repeated again and again in
the presence of hundreds of people.
I am ready, if 1t is desired, to repeat
them again and prove them to the
satisfaction of any court. Every
charge is sustained by not less than
two relia BILE men who are prepared to
go into the witness box if necessary.
Having absorbed the comfort this
contains and having shed a few more
tears with the unfortunate boot1eggers,
and jointists in the city jail, the ex-
mayor might possibly find some relief
in ref1ecting on the fact that there
are homes in Topeka happy today be-
cause sons and husbands formerly
spending their cash for other things
since officials who are really sincere
and efficient have made it so much
more difficult to secure Intoxicating
beverages here. Yours truly,
ROBT. GORDON.

CASE OF AMRINE.
Hutchinson Merchants Seem to Want
to Keep Him There.

Hutchinson, Kan, May pa per-
SiStent rumor obtains in this city that
a political upheaval in the state re-
formatory is planned by S. S. Graybill.
leading Democratic politician of the
Seventh district. 1t is stated on good
authority Mr.. Graybil1 was delegated
two weeks ago to get the goods" on
Superintendent NJ. F. Anrine. He is
to see to it that some one prefers
charges before the board of penal in
stitutions at an early date. Some DEM
ocratic officers of the reformatory have
been requested to see Mr.. Graybill if
they have anything to tell that could
be used against Amrine in an investf-
cation.
The charge against Amrine is ''po-
litical activity" as superintendent. Mr..
Graybill who is stirring up the investt-
cation was recently appointed state
live stock commissioner by Governor
Hodges. The occasion of the invests
cation IS the recent decision of Attor-
ney General. Dawson that Superintend-
ent of the reforma tory is clearly a civil
service position under d special law
and that Amrine can not be ousted eX-
cept for cause. Superintendent Amrine
believes his administration will bear
the closest scrutiny as to honesty, ef-
flCiency and progressiveness and well
comes any investigation made in good
faith. But good many people of tnls
pOuLlCdl
activity the last resort of the spoils
politician.
When the officers heard of this mat
ter they unanimously signed a state
ment clearing Amrine of any charge of
political activity as superintendent. The
official force comprised Taft Republic
cans, Roosevelt Republicans and Dem
ocrats. They state the institution has
been free of political management, and
that when campaign contributions were
called for in 1912, Mr.. Amrine came
into the officers meeting and stated
publicly the compaign contribution
must be voluntary matter which each
officer must decide as to whether he
paid, and whether or not he paid it
would have no effect on his employ
ment as an officer. One-third of the
force did rot contribute. None have
been dismissed.
In this view, Hutchinson is with
Superintendent Amrine to a degree
surprisingly unanimous. Two well
known business men Of this city, one
a Democrat, the other a Republican,
circulated on Main street this week a
paper endorsing the Amrine adminis-
tration and stating in their judgment
the management Of the reformatory
should not be considered a political re-
ward.
This statement was signed by Demo-
Gratis and Republicans alike among
whom were the president and secretary
of the Commercial club, the mayor and
full commission, the president and CASH
ier of every bank, eleven city pastors,
the head of each of the six wholesale
houses, by county officers and by the
head of nearly 100 other representative
business concerns. OF a total of lis
business men to whom it was presented,
only two refused to sign and those
did not give political reasons.

The H. S. CLASS
Graduates Number 1875, Largest
in School History.
Ceremonies Be Held at Audi
tOrium Next Thursday.

Next Thursday marks the date of
the graduation of the largest class in
the history of the high school. In all
there are 125 members, rs girls ana
so boys. In January there was not
half as many as there are going out
now. All who are graduating are ex-
pecting to go to college at some time
or other. There are some who Will
enter Washburn in the fall and others
who will go to K. u. or K. S. A. G.
and there are still others who are
planning to go to an eastern college to
specialize.
Almost every vocation is represented
in the large class. Many of the boys
are interested in engineering and eX-
pect to become civil, electrical, me
chanical or architectural engineers.
Others are desirous of becoming doc
tors and they will study medicine. The
law course in high school has interest
ed several and some of the promising
students are expecting to study law.
Chemistry and journalism are also
represented and dentistry and art are
chosen by some as their favorite vo-
cation.
Recently one of the best plays ever
given by a Topeka graduating class
was staged at the Grand. 1t was the
Aviator" in which Frank Mcfarland
played the leading role.
The High School World, a paper is
sued every two weeks by the students
of the high school, has been under the
management of Frank Fable, assisted
by Ralph Kingsley. Angelus Burch
was editor of the publication and Miss
Louise Bell was his assistant. The pa
per this year was exceptionally good
and too much cannot be said in favor
of it.
1.-The Thirteen" the annual of the
class, was put out yesterday and is
the best of its kind. The story by
Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter adds a
very great deal to the merits of the
book and also the many illustrations

Use of Package Medicine Growing.

The use of proprietary or prepared
medicine is steadily increasing among
all classes of society; and this in spite
of the organized and we'll financed
fight of the medical profession against
it. The reason is not far to seek. Pre-
pared medicine is simply one phase of
the standardizing process which is go
ing on in all lines of industry; and the
public is growing better and better in
formed in regard to health and the
means of securing and maintaining it.
People know more about them
selves, their bodies and functions,
than they ever did before; and why
they are sick if they become so. Pre-
pared medicine has standardized the
treatment for a large proportion of
the ordinary ailments and common
ills. So that people do not feel the
need of calling in a doctor to tell what
is the matter with them when they
already know, or to charge them two
dollars for a prescription when the
same or a better one already COM
pounded and ready for use can be had
for less than half the money.
