Blow to Kaiser Seen IN President's
Message

Washington, Aug 29.-President
Wilson's reply to the vatican's peace
proposals met with appreciation to-
day at the Russian embassy.
''The reply of the United States to
the pope's peace note" it was said at
the embassy, seems to US Russians
to be an act of highest political wis
dom and closely corresponds to the
principles and aims of the Russian
people as formulated in the declara-
ton of the Russion provisional gov
eminent
'tThe inspiring expression of this
document have once more outlined
the fundamental aims pursued in this
war by the league of democratic ma
tions.
''The statement President Wilson
made is to facilitate to the German
people their entrance IN the path of
democratic revival and gives a thrill
ing anticipation of the final triumph
of democracy and justice throughout
the world.
'Militarism and the imperialistic
aims of the German rule have thus re-
ceived new and powerful blow"

young men up in the Sixth District
and that political division of the state
furnishes fathers, too, who want their
sons to do their share in the great
world war.
The fact was emphasized yester-
day when A. F. Cochran, son of C.
G. Cochran of Hays, appealed to Gov
ernor Capper to use his influence in
helping him find work in which he
can serve his country Physically,
the young man has been rejected
from draft, and cannot go to the
front with Kansas troops, but he and
his parents want to find some way
by which he can serve his country in
spite of the physical defects, which
III reality amount to very little
Young Mr.. Cochran is absolutely
competent to fill any position, and he
came to Topeka, hoping that some
thing in army service would open for
him, but there seems to be nothing

Government Tciegraphy School.

The Kansas Wesleyan Business
College of Salina, Kansas, has receiv-
ed appointment from the War De-
partment as Official Training School
in Morse and Radio Geography. The
Training School will be conducted in
conjunction with their commercial
School and the appointment comes as
fitting recognition of the efficiency
and high standards of that great insti-
tuition.
Young men and women all over this
western country will be interested in
the announcement that the Kansas
Wesleyan has again opened her wire
less department and is now in posi-
ton to train those who are interested
IN this wonderful field for Govern
ment positions.
Soon after the wireless station had
been thoroughly overhauIed and
equipped with all modern wireless in
struments an order was received
from the Government asking to dis
continue wireless plant This request
was sent broadcast to every amateur
station in the country. 1t has worked
great hardship on the Navigation
Department in that it has deprived
them of thousands of operators neces-
sary to carry out their field work.
Because of this Naval authorities
have taken over several of the larg-
est radio schools with a view of speed
ing up the work of turning out compe-
tent graduates and of placing the
government stamp of approval on
these graduates. The Department has
thoroughly investigated the ability
of the school to train and to turn out
young people fitted to meet the exact
ing needs in the service, and the fact
that the Salina School has been ap-
pointed by the Department means
that instruction there will be of very
highest class and that graduates will
be in line for the very best that the
government has to offer
The Kansas Wesleyan Business
College is not only the official train
ing school for Radio, but for Morse
Telegraphy as well. Thousands of
competent operators have already
gone over to government service. The
Western Union alone has given up
twenty-five hundred operators. That
Government work may go forward
successfully and the needs of the rail
roads and commercial houses met,
the Government has found it neces-
sary to establish three or four great
training schools In the United States
The Government is back of the school
IN its great effort and has loaned the
school all additional equipment need
ed to handle its great classes of young
people.
The department urges young peo-
pie to begin work at once. By so do
ing, you not only serve your own
best interests and fall in line for
a splendid high salaried position, but
at the same time you are preparing
to serve your country in a responsible
capacity. On the completion of the
course, graduates are placed with the
Signal Service or, when preferred,
with railroads or in commercial po-
sitions- The services of young wom-
en- are IN very great demand

No APOLOGY is Necessarx

The Republican party does not
have to make any apology for hav-

ing up American industry, and at the
same time securing from those in

goods which compete with those in

porting the Government of the Unit

SO, Mr. Chairman, we contend that
that is our principle; and, my South
ern friends, that Is the principle
which ultimately you must adopt.
Since l have been here l have seen
many of you come gradually over
to the notion of Protection. You may
rail and condemn the men on your
side who shall vote for the special in
terests of their districts, but the prin-
clpIe OF Protection is abroad in the
land, and you have got to adopt it.
There is scarcely a district in your
whole great Southland which has ad-
vanced greatly during the last few
years but what must attribute the
cause of this advancement to the
fact that it has encouraged within its
midst the great manufacturing inter
ests which ought to be established
there and which are more and more
locating in its midst
So l say that principle has come
to stay There is no question about
it.-Former Representative (now

Keen Competition Coming

Addressing the National Associa-
ton of Credit Men at Kansas CITY.
4 Mo-, the Chief of the Bureau of For
eign and Domestic Commerce said:
I'VE know from the limited
amount of news which trickIes
| through from the Central Powers
that very ambitious plans are being
made to dominate the worlds trade
after the war. A speaker at an Aus
train meeting of invited manufac-
turers is quoted as stating that plans
have been perfected whereby after
the war 120,000,000 people. the to-
tai population of Germany and Aus
tria-Hungary, will buy their supplies
from the rest of the world as unit.
We know that the various industries
of Germany have been more and
more consolidated into cooperating
groups until virtually all German in
dustry has united as one organic pro-
ducing and selling agency backed
with the full power of the great Ger
man ranks and the organizations of
the German Government
Not so very long ago Secretary Nc
AdOO was assuring the country that
the European powers, particularly
Germany, would be so debilitated af-
ter the war that we would have no
globe and any idea of returning to
the Protective Tariff policy was not
worth a moments consideration on
the part of our people. Gradually it
IS percolating into the craniums of
the Democratic spokesman for the
Administration that the competition
we experienced just before the war
broke out in Europe wasn't mark
er to what we are going up against
after peace has been declared.
Meanwhile the Administration has
done no more to prepare for this post
war trade rivalry than it did in pre-
paratiOn for the war of arms IN which
we are now about to engage Eng
land, France, Canada, Japan, the Cen
trail Powers every last commercial
nation on the globe is preparing dur
ing the war for the situation after
the war, but the Administration
seems to think that our war Job is so
big that postwar preparation should
be postponed until actual conditions
confront US. It may be that the Presi-
dents forward looking men are
crosseyed, but even Bill Nye's cross
eyed man had one eye on the middle
of next week.-Kellogg {Idaho)

Beat the Bone Dry Law By Separat-
ing Alcohol from Extract of
lemon

Smith Center, Aug 29.-(Special)
Since the bone dry law went into
effect, the sale of lemon extrat in
this part of Kansas has jumped to an
unprecedented volume and grocers
are hard put to keep any of 1t on
hand. The extract is 80 per cent alco-
hol, and since it has been discovered
that the oil of lemon and alcohol can
be readily separated with q cream sep
arator, the "topers" have forgotten
their antipipthy toward the bone dry
law. Some of the temperance work
ers are indignant over the large sales
of extract and say they will begin an
agitation before the next legislature

ing the garden soil richer than II
found It.
Soy beans win not grow well In soil
where it has never grown before un-
less that soil is impregnated with
certain miscosopical germs which the
roots must have, that is, for soy bean
culture the soil must be "inoculated:.
While this sounds difficult, 1t Is real
ly quite simple. All that Is necessary
is to procure a little soy bean cul-
ture' or some of the soil which has
already produced soy beans.
This culture is sold by numerous
seedsmen and can usually be purchas-
ed cheaply. A handful of culture or OF
soy bean soil is sufficient to inoculate
the whole bean patch. Mix this soil
with a half pint of seed, plant the seed
two to three inches apart, and one incn
deep, in rows fifteen inches apart
For successive crops you can SOW 1t up
