CLEAR BISHOP MATTER
Libel Suit Settled by Full ExpIana-
ton Exonerating Topekan.

The suit for libel, brought against
Arthur Capper by l. E. Bishop was
dismissed by the action of the plaintiff
Wednesday. 1t was alleged that the
plaintiff had been done an injustice
by Capper's paper in a statement by
the paper to the effect that Bishop
had been arrested for the assault in
Willow Park two months ago.
George T. McDermOtt, attorney for
the defendant, gave out the following
statement I'VE made a thorough in
vestigation of the facts surrounding
the publication of the article made
in January, in which it was stated
that L. E. Bishop had been arrested
for the Willow Park crime We
learned that an injustice had been
done Mr.. Bishop. That while he was
perhaps technically under arrest, in
fact what he did was accompany the
officers back to Topeka, at their re-
quest, and without extradition in or
der to make a full explanation of the
matter.
THE wide publication of the charge
was serious matter to Mr. Bishop.
Mr.. Bishop was more interested in
vindicating his name and reputation,
and this we feel has been done by
the terms of the settlement"

BACK TO EUROPE.
The Tide of Immigration Is at the
Ebb.

Washington. March 11.-For the
first time in the history of the United
States the7 flow of immigration has
been turned back toward Europe by
the war, and more aliens are leaving
the United States than are coming
here to make their homes. Statistics
made public by Immigration Com
missioner Caminetti show that the
change came in Decem Der last, when
the number of emigrant aliens leaving
this country was greater by 2.240 than
the total of migrants entering In
January 1,157 more departed than
entered The departures for the six
months from August, 1914. to January
last totaled 1885 more than the ar
rivals, including both emigrant and
non-emigrant aliens.
The heaviest emigration was
shown among aliens from southern
Italy. OF these 1859 more departed
than were admitted during the seven
months ended with January. This pre-
sumably was due to the calling of ItaI-
ian reservists to the colors.'

Hoch Has a Solution.
While the conferees are fighting
over the several hundred items in the
appropriation bills, E. w. Hoch, for
mer governor and member of the edu-
cational administration board, has Of
fered a solution for the present trou-
bles. He would please all the state
institutions by giving none of them
all they want, but all of them por-
ton of their watns. The Hoch plan
provides for building wing or unit
of a building at the various institu-
lions, the work to be completed by
some future Legislature.
In a statement today Hoch said:
''It would seem that the legislative
dead lock on building appropriations
so far as the educational institutions
are concerned, at least, could easily
and fairly be broken by the compro-
mise proposed by the first committee
appointed by the senate. The basis
of the compromise passed by the sem
ate committee seems to be greatly
misunderstood. The idea seems to be
among its opponents that it involves
the erection of incomplete buildings,
windows barred up and rooms un-
finished and unusuable until another
legislature votes money to complete
them. That is not the plan at all.
Plan of Compromise.
ut will be recalled that the house
agreed to concede a new building at
Emporia to cost $250,000 and new
building at Hays to cost $125, 600, be-
ing a total of $4,000. The senate
conferees We're unwilling to discrimi-
nate between the schools when all
were alike needy and worthy and they
proposed to treat all alike in the COM
promise by giving to each one-half of
the amount originally asked, which
would about equal or but little exceed
the total amount the house conferees
were willing to concede.
1.-The senate proposition involved
the erection and completion of a part
of each building, proposed. each of
these units to be SO planned and con-
structed as to be complete in itself
and to present a good external ap-
pearance, and be at once uSable but
erected with the view of enlargement
when some future legislature might
wish to do so. The state architect
says this scheme is entirely feasible
and will entail but little if any addi-
tional expense. This policy is often
persued. The state house was built in
this way. This is the plan of the new
administration building at the Univer-
sity one wing of which was erected
several years ago and is now being
used for elias purposes. The plan was
for this building to be erected in three
or more different sections. The same
building at Manhattan, one wing of
which has been in, use for several
years.
This proposition is fair and just
to al and so feasible from an archi-
tectural as well as from a financial
standpoint that it is difficult to see
why the. two houses can not get to-
gether on it
