While both the budget board and
the committee on appropriations
have been liberal with the rural and
consolidated schools, yet there is a
strong lobby present asking that the
amount be made greater. The fact
that the appropriations have been

this may be increased, notwith-
standing the fact that the legislat-
ors are inclined to grant the re-

ONCE MORE

Nearly a million dollars, more or
less have been taken from the Kan
sas and Oklahoma people chiefly
from farmers to sustain a coopera-
tive wholesale grocery concern,
which is in failing condition. There
seems to be little or nothing left
for the farmers who have put their
good money into the scheme. Scores
of Lyon county farmers went into
the scheme, and have their eXper-
fence for their pains Any merchant
or banker could have told them the
scheme would fail. The Gazette did
tell them it would fail, and the Ga
zette refused to take the adyertis-
ing of the concern, because it did
mt seem straight. For refusing this
these farmers roundly
abused the Gazette, eand said that
it was paid by the grocers to with
hold the advertising. Now they know

THE PEOPLES DECISION

This is the sensible view to take
of a constitutional convention in
Kansas and it comes from the To-
peka Capital:
an view of the widespread inter-
est that has been shown in reyi-
sion Of the constitution. its oppon-
ents assume a good deal in urging
the legislature not to permit it to
come TO a vote.
Suppose new constitution
should actually be framed. It would
then be voted up or down. not by
the legislature, but by the people.
No member OF the legislature would
propose that the new constitution
should be submitted TO the legisla-
ture to determine whether it should
be adopted or rejected.
Then why should a member Of
the legislature assume to say that
the legislature. and not the people,
shall decide whether convention
shall be called?

their responsibility to strange the
