So your horses your cows and your
hogs have no fears,
While your hills are CO vered with
white-faced steers.
Oats, barley and corn your granaries
won't hold,
It's the farmers you've got who
brought you your gold.
You're great old state, not another
your kind,
I'm just trying to tell a few things
in my mind:
When you sent Jess to Cuba he did
hardly a thing,
But he brought you the belt as best
man in the ring.
Walter johnson they say is given up
As the greatest star, when it comes
to base ball.
Our soldiers in Mexico as they are
today.
With one of your generals directing
their way
At Pekin China when all nations did
1t was one of your boys who was first
on the wall;
In the Philippine Island showed
what you'd do;
And your patriotism is still just as
true
Your father of temperance, Old Gov.
St. John,
He started the fight in days that are
gone
He fought against liquor with a very
small band,
Later out came q women with hat
Chef in hand;

KANSAS

Dear old Kansas, love you and I'm
here to say,
You are the best state in the Union
today.
You have as much railway as acy
other state,
When it comes to competition you
have no mate.
A few years back it is true you were
wild,
Today you've $1,000 for each man
woman and child.
While your banks are full and over
flowing
You have another big wheat crop
growing.
To the war stricken nations your
flour you send,
And on your wheat crop world mar
kets depend.
For more automobiles you have no
desire,
You have more now than the Ger
man empire
Secretary Coburn brought you to the
top,
With the worlds greatest forage, alf-
alias crop.

There wasn't woman in all of crea-
tion
Had nerve to break glass like your
own Carrie Nation.
Any mother on earth we could tell
her with joy
To come to your farms to raise up
your boy,
Because you have men on your farms
now, my dear.
Who never saw a soloon or a schoon-
er of beer,
No other state in this Union can say
Their boys have grown up to man
hood this way
I've travelled your prairies and seen
the towns grow
And watched the big schooners come
in and then go,
1 am now settled down on your very
best spot,
And that place is Liberal, the best
town you've got.
the west,
And our town and surrouniDgs are
surely the best.
L just wanted to visit with you a
short time,
And tell you a few things in this
little rhyme.
The same men and women that made
you so great
Would have done the same thing for
any other state
If were to leave you L sure would
shed tears,
Because I have lived with you thirty
six years.

AN ENEMY

It's evident Mr.. Bosworth,
In his eulogy of the COW,
Doesn't live in old Missouri
So, of course, he doesn't know.
What the women in the country,
Who rise at break of day
And observe the crow until sunset,
OF his wickedness can say.
In tree top high he perches,
AS the turk goes to her nest,
And when the housewife finds it
Empty eggshells tell the rest.
When her little chickens downy
She turns out to roam at will
With two dozen of his brothers
stBlackie crow will get his fill.
He will step about among them,
Picking first at this and that
Then he pounces on a chicken
With the quicxness of cat.
L have seen him flying home
With an egg held in his beak,
And if that is not guilty
It surely shows his sscheek"
Yes, / know he steals my cherries
And plucks up my husbands corn
And the mocker's song is drowned
And his caws at early morn
On, wish there was ransom
Placed upon his guilty he ad,
Then so many chicks and turkeys
Wouldn't number with the dead.

MOVE THE POST OFFICE.

Recently the post office in Bellfow-
er, Montgomery county, was moved
from the old town to the new town, a
half mile distant. There has been
some little feeling between the two
towns for sometime and when the post
office was returned to its former loca-
tion in the old town this week the resi-
dents fealt they had received a belated
Christmas gift.
To settle the controversy Uncle Sam
sent a special inspector into the town
after the Office had been moved. The
return was made at his suggestion
New Bellhower was the result Of the
C. B. & Q. short line from this city to
Old Monroe passing within a short dis.
tance of the old town. 1t seems al
feelings over the matter have died out

Friday afternoon denied rumors that
he was preparing to start a movement
against President Wilson'S renomin-

statement to that effect was without
an ounce of truth. He said several
friends have asked him to consent
to be nominee, but he refused.

WREKS PHARMACY ROB-
BED AND SET ON FIRE

Wren's Pharmacy, on the south side
Of the square, was heavily damaged
by FIRE Saturday morning about 800
O'Clock. Previous to the blaze evidence
points to the store having been en-
tered by thieves who robbed the cash
registers and it is the conclusion Of
many, set the building on fire acci-
dentally. But for the prompt and
efficient work Of the fire department
the blaze would have spread and one
of the most serious fires in the history
Of the city followed.
From indications the fire started
under a counter in the center Of the
store and in a pile Of embalming cot
ton. DR.. Bridgford, who is one of the
stores staff, advances this theory.
He stated it appeared to him that the
Thieves, after breaking into the two
leash registers and securing $5 in
change from each, were looking about
the store with matches.
A match carelessly thrown dowr
apparently ignited the cotton ant
when it fiared up the invaders rushed
out fearing the double consequence
of fire and robbery. Just outside tn,
rear door, which had been entered By
breaking a glass and removing a
heavy bar, a hat evidently the prop
erty Of one of the thieves was founc
by Night Officer VIM. Pratt.
DR.. Wren says he believes the stool
was fully covered by insurance bu
some of it expired the first of tn
Iyear, and he is not sure concerning al
Of it. The building, owned by Vein
ands Bros, was covered by insuranc
and the damage to it was not yer.
} great.
Shortly before the fire alarm wa
! turned in the telephone receiver il
the store was taken from its holder
but when Central tried to get who wa
at the phone she received no answer
It is thought the receiver was knock
ed from its place in the rush to escap
: from the building when the thieve
found they had set it on FIRE. Tn
telephone was just behind the counte
where the fire started.
DIR. Wren expects to oopen his phar
macy just as soon as the loss is ad
justed and a new stock can be secured
The occupants Of the second story. 0
the building were not damaged.
DR., Wren carried $4,000 insurance
it was later learned and his stock in
voiced at $4,000. The loss is said
have been about rs per cent.
