KANSAS TO THE FRONT.

During any lull in the worlds news
the state of Kansas may be relied
upon to come to the front and toot
her own horn with exceeding voci-
ferousness, Just now the prospect
of a bumper crop of winter wheat
about ready to be harvested has caus-
ed the state to send out report
that 10000 harvest hands will be
needed. The farmers are offering 81
day and board, and more to especial
y good men. The assertion is made
that Kansas will this year have the
largest wheat crop in her history.
John Mulvane, the Topeka banker,
is sending out word all over the east
that big crops may be expected. He
is telling the railway men to get
ready for it. Here is one of Mr..
Mulvane's letters:
The promise for great Kan
sas wheat crop has never been
better than today. The fine con-
dition is statewide one, and the
same is true of Oklahoma, and
the crop in the latter state we
expect will be harvested within
the next 10 days. The acreage
is largely increased. In fact, we
think that all the estimates as to
acreage are low and that the acre
age is far in excess of any re-
ported. We have the best Of rea-
sons for this conclusion.
There may be some small
streaks in which the wheat may
be injured by hail or wind storms
but there are always confined to
a small acreage. The weather
has been ideal for wheat, and in
fact for getting in all kinds of
crops. A large acreage Of corn
has gone into the ground In ex-
cellent condition. One cutting Of
alfalfa has been harvested and It
is a magnificent crop.
We hope that you have acted
wisely and put your cars In the
best Of condition, and also your
motive power, all Of which will

and must either sink into general dis

the latter, all good citizens should
pledge their united influence, their
property and their lives.

condemn the publication and circula-

to the great injury of our loyal peo-
pie, of the many false, libelous and

THAT while we recognize that in
this insurrection, as in all actual war
fare, here may have been cases of
wrong by the individual members of
the national guard of Colorado, We
commend and express our grateful
appreciation to the officers and men
Of the national guard of Colorado,
who have valiantly and patriotically
sought to do their duty in defense of
