junketed with him in France He has
sought to placate Senator Capper and
the Capper publications and his man
ayers have even forgotten their in
ability to secure more than passing
mention of the governors name in the
pre-primary campaign of last year.
But IL Governor Allen is forced from
the side lines and compelled to follow
the Star leadership or parade with
Capper under the White banner, this
will at least be a hard and cruel
world.
That isn't all. If trouble merely
stopped with this league of nations
thing, the Star and White and Allen
and Capper might square their differ
ences. Senator Capper might be for
reservations that never, never could
be adopted, the Republican party in
Kansas might go away off and play
hide and seek with itself and the
whole thing might end right there.
But there is a new and further
trouble. It is the delegation to the
next Republican national convention.
Just now ]. Leeford Brady of the Sa-
lima Union is using the big stick to
stir up sentiment for instructions for
some one-preferably General Wood.
Brady argues from the standpoint
that the only way the people shall
rule is to rule. And by this token he
wants the delegation instructed and
tons are observed.
Motter Wants Men Free.
Brady's interest in the national
convention has already caused
breach in any intense friendliness
which might be formed with H. H.
Motter, state chairman. Motter wants
a free delegation. And in answer to
Motter, Brady has not only said some
unl6ind things of the state chairman,
but has openly said that the state
house crowd which is supposed to be
working for the people. is merely
playing the people for political gain.
Possibly Brady's remarks would
cause less concern were il not for the
fact that at least three state officers
Governor Allen, r. ]. Hopkins. at
torney general, and Fred w. Knapp,
state auditor-served with Brady in
the Bull Moose cause. And all were
high chieftains in a lofty cause. Now
Brady is charging his former heroes
with such sordid tricks as the playing
of politics for personal gain. To the
average political observer Brady's out
burst Is the distant cloud which may
bring much precipitation before the
1920 campaign is out of the way.
Yet thru 1t all the Kansas standpats
seem serene. happy and contented.
They are quietly awaiting the result
OF the exchange OF brick bats among
the leaders who came to redeem the
state from selfish partisanship and to
establish ideals above the ambition for
office and personal gain.

BROKER IS HELD
Saline County Finally Grabs
Well Known Promoter.
Charged With Completely in the
State Bank Case.
HE WAS IN TOPEKA LAST WEEK
But No Move Was Made Then
To Arrest Him.
Kansas Spends $1,000 for Vio-
latiOn Missouri Law.

Felix Broker is to be prosecuted in
Kansas on complaint charging COM
plicity in the misuse of funds of the
Kansas State bank of Salina- He was
arrested in Kansas City on a warrant
issued by the county attorney of Sa-
line county. Broker returned to
Kansas with an officer and waived ex-
tradition.
Nearly $1,000 has been spent by the
state in the effort to prosecute Broker
on charge of violating Missouri
law. This state has retained special
counsel and sent assistant attorneys
general on long trips in an effort to
hold Broker for trial in the Jackson
county, Missouri district court. AL
tho Broker came to Topeka and Wis
tied the state house more than a week
ago, no move was made to prosecute
him for violation Of the Kansas stat
utes until the warrant was issued in
Saline county.
The arrest of Broker on a charge
held in allegiance several days and
awaited action of a Jackson county.
Missouri, just court which heard the
Broker preliminary in Kansas City.
In spite of the fact that the state of
Kansas has spent large sums of money
in conducting prosecution for viola
ton of a Missouri law, there is much
doubt among lawyers as to the action
of the Justice court to hold Broker for
trial or ability of the state to secure
conviction in a trial before a jury.
Many lawyers and bankers comment
ed on the failure of this state to prose-
cute Broker for violation of Kansas
! laws.

Kansas Standpat Republicans
Are Eagerly Watching Them.
Some May Cause Heavy Precip-
itatiOn in 1920 Campaign.
PROGRESSIVES NOT IN ACCORD
ALIEN May Have To Split With
White or Star.
Fight Promised by Free and
Instructed Delegate Men.

The next few months ought to bring
smiles to the wrinkled faces of the
once despised and more or less dis
credited standpat wing of the Re
publican wing OF the Republican party
in Kansas. Just now there is nothing
for the conservative faction of the
party to do but listen to the growing
corn and daily row in the progressive
ranks.
To all intent and purpose the pro-
gressive branch of the Republican or
ganization is in command of the party
machinery. And the usual thing is
beginning to happen. The row which
usually centers around the loaves and
hisnes is now starting in the form OF
lively dispute as to party eXpedtency.
The fight seems to be only fairly
started. But the old crowd in the
party is sitting in the shade and seems
content to let the former Bull Moose
followers tell what they know and
think of each other.
AS has been the custom in every
political fight in Kansas in quarter
OF a century. william Allen White Is
out in the midst Of it. White Is home
from Europe with lot OF ideas as to
the things the Republican party in the
state and nation should and should
not do next year. To date the EN-
poria editors chief accomplishment
of discomfort little deeper in the
progressive organization.
Whites Big Concern.
Whites big concern is over the
league OF nations, He has served
notice on the Republican organization
that daisies will sprout from the toes
OF a once glorious party II 1t permits
the covenant to become an issue in
1920 or dares to fight its ratification
in the senate All of which has tended
only to run counter to the policies OF
the Kansas City Star. which for years
has been volunteer leader of all move
ment for the pe-epul of Kansas The
Star wants the covenant repaired so 1t
won't tick and then kicked down the
back stairs. White declares such
course is political suicide.
But the trouble doesn't seem to stop
or even hesitate-there. The Star
has recently told Senator Capper edi-
toriaIIy that he ought to listen again
to the voice OF Kansas. The Missouri
publication has insinuated the polfti-
cal weather wizard has misread the
league expressions which have come
to him thru his 81 varieties of pig,
poultry and prune publications. The
purpose of the Star has been clearly
to smoke out the Junior Kansas sena-
tor and line him up on one Of two
sides of the street.
This little controversy may be very
pleasing to White and the Star. But
to date It has bred only discord and
discomfort. It has befuddled the
minds of a bunch of voters who
looked to the bell wethers for guild
ance.

Yet the trouble hasn't stopped
there. 1t has indirectly caused much
annoyance in certain state house cir
cles. Governor Allen has chung fer

The whole community is stirred
over the murder, and threats of sum-
mary action should the murderer be
apprehended. are being heard today

So far as is known Turner had no
enemies. He came to Clark county in
February, 1918. He was a tenant
farmer for Fred Losch. and was "a

A GOOD LIBRARY FOR EVERY
SCHOOL.

In the past we have thought
relatively too much about teach
ing people how to read, and not
enough about getting them to
read after they learn how. To de-
velop "the reading habit in each
pupil should be one Of the chief
aims of every teacher. Train
any child so he likes to read, 50
he is a real book-lOver, and he
will educate himself even if he
never goes to school another day.
Moreover, if school has a good
library. it should aid greatly in
educating the older people whose
school days are over but whose
learning days should never be
over. The saying of old Thomas
Carlyle. "The True University
Of these days is a Collection Of
Books" cannot be too often re-
peated.
In practically every state now
the state offers to pay part of the
cost of library if the patrons Of
the school will raise the other
part. and it is a discredit to the
people of any district if their
school is without a library. The
money can be raised by private
subscriptions, by entertainments,
and gifts bv business men and
former residents of the commun-
itv, etc. In everv Southern state,

AMERICAN COTTON ASSN.

There has been some criticism
of the statements of President j.
S. Wannamaker of the American
Cotton Association in which he
urged the Southern cotton grow.
ers to hold two million bales of
cotton off the market, and this
criticism has been due entirely to
a misunderstanding Of the whole
matter. In order that the New
England spinners should crap the
point, Mr.. Wanamaker wrote an
article for one of the Boston pa
n-e early in November, outlin-
ino the purpose of the American
Cotton Association, and at the
same time sought to make clear
the purpose in urging the farmers
to hold off two million bales Of
cotton by storing it in Southern
warehouses.
The Boston Transcript came
back with a stinging editorial in
which it is charged that this was
q deliberate attempt to manip,,-
late the market and voiced it's in
dignation in no uncertain tones,
concluding with this bold threat ::
eff there is no legal means that
cen prevent such bold manipula-
ton of the market as the Ameri-
can Cotton Association has now
ordered. there should be. And
if this organization of the cotton
sellers persists in such tactics
then they may expect to hear from

and the cotton consumers of the
