WHIMSICAL RICH MEN.

Joseph Feis the Philadelphia phlanhropst who died last week proclaimed that he did not believe in phian hropy He also said that he had made his millions bv robbing the public" and added CT intend to spend the damnable millions have made to wipe out the system by which made it.
 We firmly believe that Mir Fels did not mean these statements when he made them We are of the opinion that he was unhonest rather than dishonest his pro y which seems to attack rich after they have ac qured riches Andrew Carnegie suffers acutely from the aiment He continually repeating his favorlte epsram To die rich is to die accursed yet fabulousy rich today and it is safe say he will be abulousy rich when he is taken from his sphere of great usefulness
 It is noteworthy fact that men like MT Fels and Mir Carnegie do arrive their illogical convictions until after they have made their not until then that they to discover taint in the wealth they have accumulated probably accumulated honestly In the event that has made his money honestly. dollar is no tainted than billion The size of the competence has nothing do with it's moral quality
 The greatest danger in these whimsical expressions of rich lies in their being accepted literally by the great army of disgrunted persons whom circumstance self oppressed in the struggle for existence If followed to their logical conclusions the of MT Carnegie and Mir. Fes would convey the final yer dict that only through dishonesty riches be at. taned that the poor exclusively is yirtuous.
 MT Fes made his money entirely through his own efforts. He began business life at seventeen as a travelling salesman for soap firm He mounted the ladder of by fighting courageousy onward work ing a lot harder than work. denying himself at the start those things which the less thrifty in duge winning the confidence of his associates and the gaining the heights only repudiate them. But as we have said his repudiaion must not be taken too Sc riously He was actively engaged up to the time Of his death in doing with money what he believed to be worthy.
 But he had not spent all of his millions before he died He made little progress in this country in appreciable converton to his of thinking on the subjects of single tax and free trade. The public from an indictment against him. The public knew perhaps heer than Mir Fels knew that his interest in the up n, mankind was wholehearted. his sympathies were enu,ne and his benevolences sincere It is one thing for a man to confront himself with charges, and an other thing to make others believe them Some men hend backward under the weight of their humbieness- Mir Carnegie excepted. He is Scotchman possesseo , ,herent right to be canny. MT Fes We believe - ora spiieless and what he said of himself and h ,ara.won fortune should be taken with more ample oant,ties of salt than would be required to make MT Carnegies dictums palatable

ELECTS CANDIDATE
Mob of Angry Citizens Resents Abu-
sive Language of Would-Be
State Senator.

William H. Madison, candidate fo1
state senator from Sedgwick county
on the Socialist ticket, was egged out
of Pratt as a result Of his speeches
there in the last two weeks. He has
abused leading residents Of the city
and urged that no one work in the
harvest fields for less than 81 a day.
The other night Madison appeared
on the street to make his talk. He
had gotten wagon to stand in and
was pulling it to the place where the
meeting was to be held. a crowd Of
boys seized the wagon, loaded Madi-
son into it without ceremony and
rushed down Main street past the pro-
posed meeting place.
Mr.. Madison then took refuge in
the Oxford cafe. A committee of the
business men of Pratt went to him
and asked him to leave the city I'M
til the feeling had died down He at
first refused to do So He then left
by the rear door. He was met there
by other persons who insisted on his
leaving the city to stop any further
trouble
Madison then went north toward
the Rock Island depot and there was
egged until his train arrived His
abuse of the churches and Pratt citi-
zens caused the riot.

GREAT VALUE OF
LEGUMINOUS CROPS
Results Obtained From Their Use
Are Far More Striking in Poor
Soils Than in Rich.

Investigations prove the high vaIue
OF the common legume crops whether
used in rotation or as green manure
crops Results obtained from their
use are far more striking in poor soils
than in rich soils Perhaps the safest
rule TO apply where there is a choice
Of two legumes is to use the one which
gives the largest total yield per acre.

one whose seed is cheapest
The blowing under Of green manure
crops as a regular operation is seldom
carried on except in orchards. In this
case there can be but little doubt thai
the operation is highly profitable
With field crops the blowing under OF
a green manure crop is seldom JUST
fable except in the case Of very poor
lands or at considerable intervals, be
cause ordinarily it is far more profit
able to utilize the crop for feed and
then to return the manure to the soil

BEST Fertilizer
FOR THE GARDENS
Trials Have Proved That Mixture
of Artificial Manure Produces
Excellent Yields.

Numerous experiments have proved
the high value of a mixture Of arti-
fetal manure for potatoes, consisting
of four hundredweight Of superphos-
phate and two hundredweight Of sui
phate of ammonia and two hundred
weight Of sulphate of potash per acre
This dressing should give a good
crop, even when no farmyard ma
nure is available, though ten tons
OF that manure per acre is a Valu-
able addition. When the last is ap-
piled the sulphate OF ammonia and
potash may be reduced to half q
ton each. Trials have proved that
these manures produce their best re-
suits when placed in drills under the
seed potatoes. Growers who plant
only a few rods may have difficulty in
getting locally small quantities Of the
artificial manures named; but there
are some large town firms who sell
them by the bags. A ready-made po-
tato manure from a firm of high repu-
tation may answer equally well. al
though it will cost 2 little more than
its constituents cost when bought by
the ton. A deep stirring Of the soil,
without bringing the sub-soil to the
TOP, is a security against drought

WILL STUDY BIBLE
State University to Provide
Short Course for Sunday
4 School Teachers.
TO HOLD YEARLY INSTITUTE
Board Of Administration Plans Series
of Lectures Similar to Those
Given Merchants.

A week Of study at the University
of Kansas for the Bible teachers OF
the state, is one of the plans that the
board of administration intends to put
into effect next year, in line with It's
policy of making the schools OF direct
service to the people.
1--WE are now investigating the ad-
visibility of the University holding
such an institute each year" said Ed.
T. Hackney, president of the board
These short courses will correspond
to those recently held for the mer-
chants and editors Of the state.
I'VE have found quite an active de-
mand from teachers for suggestions
and instruction in the method Of Bible
teaching and believe this short course
supplemented by proper correspon-
dence courses through the extension
division would eventually serve many
Bible teachers.
Colorado and Dakota have worked
out Bible syIlabi and are giving credit
for work done under proper instruc-
ton and with proper courses of study
and the work has the active support
OF every denomination and creed. The
board hopes that the university,
through this syllabus and through a
Bible teachers week and correspOn-
dence courses for Bible teachers, may
be able to do even more effective
work for the people of the state OF
Kansas"
