Topeka's Opportunity.
yet this is a thing of the present,
undreamed of when the academy was
organized. Our clays have only be-
gun to yield their wealth, and in every
line We are only at the beginning of
development of our mineral resources

field opening, We in Topeka are still
1lbuying ten-cent electricity while the
Kansas river is carrying by each day
enough of the same article at two
tacents to supply our every need and
add greatly to the comfort of living

lion; indeed, the amount and variety
of work pushing to the front is SO
great as to be almost bewiidering."
