CURRENT COMMENT.

p. m, has not returned a verdict in
the case of the Crawfords VS.. Mac
Lehman, there are many things to be
thankful for: we know now under
what laws we must exist in Kansas
during the next two years to follow
our several pursuits. including that of
happiness. The legislature is no
longer with us. We babe it goodbye
for two years.
In many respects it was a good lot
of Legislators that have been in our
midst, mingled with US, as it were.
for more than sixty days. A large
amount of the good they did will live
after these legislative bodies of the
session of 1919 have gone hence, to
return maybe; particularly in view of
the things they did not do. Kansas
has already too many laws on her
statute book. Some of these do not
conduce to our welfare and progress.
Three things. well performed by
the legislature which is now about to
"sine die and which to all intents and
purposes has left us, stand forth in the
three amendments which the legisla-
ture has submitted to the people to be
voted upon at the next general cleo
ton. These are: First, the land ten
antry amendment, which will enable
the state to assist soldiers and others
in casting their lot with us as own
ers instead of tenants of the soil they
till. Second, the amendment which
provides for a reform of taxation I'M
der the head of classification. Third,
an amendment which, if adopted, will
enable the state to give aid to that
which we need most in Kansas-good
hard surfaced, permanent roads.
The city of Topeka confidently ex-
poets that the members of the next
legislature will be able to find ac-
commodations here during the session
of 1921 in a fireproof, modern, ten
story hotel at the corner of Ninth and
Kansas avenue. 1t is to be hoped that
they will be able to see and hear first
class musical comedies and other
shows without being compelled to go
ceive this entertainment and relaxa-
ton.
So long. senators and members
come again.
Under the act of the legislature
just ended, Governor Allen secures
the use of one of the handsomest
homes in this city, beautifully fur
nished and fully equipped, at the NOM
inal expense of SIPS per month. This
shows that the legislature appreciated
the generosity of Senator Capper in
giving up his home to our governor.
That was a fine generous notice or
the front page of the Topeka Capita
this mbrning wherein the Capital staff
invited the president of THE Hote
Kansan" to a dinner on the openine
night of the new ten-story fireproo1
hotel to be erected at Ninth and Kan
sas avenue; accompanied by the
handsome notice about F. w. Fitzpat-
| rick, the Omaha architect; about
Bankers Realty Investment company
which is bringing so much new capita
into Topeka for the purpose of build
ing the hotel, and about H. NJ Nc
| Queen, the fiscal agent, who will with
in a few days confidently sally forth
to sell in Kansas the remainder of the
hotel company's stock.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make q mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
we'll known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
SO they sluggishly filter or strain only
part Of the waste and poisons front
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
Bile, nervousness, constipation, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts, or
if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by a sensation of scalding,
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any reliable pharmacy and take
tablespoonful in a glass Of water
before breakfast for o few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
Of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia and has been used for gen.

stimulate them to activity, also to
:neutraIize the acids in urine so it no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can,

vescent Whitewater drink which al!
regular meat eaters should take now
and then to keep the kidneys clean
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

PARlS. Feb. 2 (By The Associated
ess).-Jules Csmbon. French Am
bassador at Berlin up to the outbreak
OF the war and now a member of tha
French delegation to the peace CON
terence, has written an article an
pearing in the "Revue des Deux
NJ Mondes" to-day, entitled German Err
rors Concerning the United States. y
winch Will appear later as the intro
ductlon to a history of the United
States. written by Professor Farrand
of Yale University. NJ. Cambon's
article says:
Germany has made not few
fundamental errors concerninc tho
united States The first was to believe
that no true national sentiment
existed IN the country and to feel that
democracy composed Of clements
coming from ali quarters of the globe
"iCnout tradltlons, would be unable to
conS1ltute homogeneous whole
-, GERMAN illusion was also based ON
the manifestation of love that some
americans Of Germanic stock disnlav
1or the country of their origin.
Permitted Double. Nationality
20 maintain allegiance to the
mother country. the Debrueck law had
allowed Germans to acquire a double
natlonallty and to be naturalizcd
american citizens without severinp
their bonds to the Fatherand. Final
ly, the brother of the Emperor him
SELF, Prince Henry of Prussia, crossed
the Atlantic to mingle with the Ger
man societies established in America.
"Doubtless there were certain
number of Americans of German origin
who remained faithful to the Father
land, but their number was small as
compared with the bulk of the popula
ton, and, besides. public feeling would
not have tolerated among American
citizens any owledement Of past
loyalty. which would have been con
sldered an act of treachery.
"Germany had made the same mis-
take concerning the principles of the
American foreign policy. which for
many years rested on Washington's
farewell message. in which he advised
bis countrymen to stay carefully out
OF alliances with European powers.
But what Washington wanted was to
gam time for his country to reach the
point where, it would be the master
of its future"
Overlooked Deep Idealism
Another error on the part of the

The Germans, he says. "were struck
only by the economic development of
the country and did not believe in the
Of the generous feelings
among those republicans. whose tradi
tons. however, were religious tradi-
tons"
NJ. Cambon refers to the fact that
although religion is not state affair
IN America, most ceremonies are
opened and closed with prayers. This
practice he attributes to the higher
inspiration such as Seward referred
to when he said at the time of the
Civil War: "There is a higher law
than the Constitution itself"
