The Citx's Vision.


Never n the history OF Hays City,
mas she been so stirred as TO her future
possibilities as she was lass night at a
oaEquet given by Pres. W. A. Lewis
az the Normal banquet hall, Wnere 125
business and professional men ate a
sum- tuous dinner. They were then
given a new vision of the town. They
were made TO see that the village id "a
that has so long dominated the town,
must pass away, and that Hays must.
in the next FIVE years, become city of
5000 people; that it must become the
conventional and residential city of
Western Kansas and can easily become
so if our people get the vision and act
with vim, vigor and push. Our needs
are as follows: Ten new dwelling hous-
90, modern, and that will rent for $25
per month; a modern do rmitory of %
rooms for young ladies; a twenty four
passenger auto truck line to run from
Stockton to Larned via Hays City, La
Cross and Rush Center; a new depot
that is q credit TO this achool center,
and Normal Avenue and other streets
better lighted, on the white way plan.
This is not a boom but a real need
| and paying financial Investment. The
growth of Hays makes this demand.
We are no longer village but a city.
1t is not a dream but the outside popu-
lation is knocking at our doors asking
70 be taken care of. Do it and Hays
City comes into her own; fail TO meet
the demand and HAYS City dies-re
mains q postofice and a shipping sta
tion-meet the requirements and Hays
| City becomes a great educational cen
ter and a western metropolis.
A good committee OF live business
man was appointed by the presiding
officer, H j. Penney, to form ways ant
means to meet this crying need G. q
| Cochran heads the committee. Ie i
now time, regardless Of past differenc
ss, to do our foil duty for q larger anC
better Havs City. Become q real boost
er, not 3 knocker.

The New Diplomacy.

The old style of diplomacy, which did every
thing in secret and relied wholly upon shrewd-
ness for results, is now passing away. 1t is
largely accountable for the great war in Europe.
If the international issues had been discussed
publicly and the people had known what was be-
ing done under cover, peace instead of war would
have been insisted upon. Great will be the day
when the art of diplomacy is among the lost. It
was wont to stir up war on the parsing of a
word.
The London News says the example of the
United States must hereafter become the model
of the civilized world" This country has lately
been appointing intelligent, frank warm-hearted
men. Myron Herrick was that kind and no doubt
his estimate of the duties of foreign minister
was one thing that attracted foreign nations to
the success of American diplomacy. The inter-
national relation can be reduced to yes and nc
proposition easily any matter of business
and that is fast becoming the American style

being already hitched. William Barner, Jr.,
state chairman called the meeting to order
Elihu Root, as temporary chairman, made long
speech. It must have been fine sight to see
Barnes nod his solemn approval as Root spoke of
"the corruption, the profigacy, and the incompe-

of our state under Democratic control" Barnes
