LACK A BIC NOISE
Topeka Takes Prosperity Too
COmplacently, Says Adams.
There Are 1880 Good Paying
Jobs Filled in This City.

The only thing the matter with To-
peka is the lack Of q big noise"
Charles Adams. e tie Adams Bros
Co., told the members of the Rotary
club in his address at the meeting Fri
day night. Adams pointed out the
prosperous condition of the city, its
progressive industries, the loyalty of
its inhabitants and then declared that
more cordial invitations should be ex-
tended to men and enterprise to come
here
Topeka has. in round numbers. 50.-
900 persons" said Adams. THAT
means there are about 1880 jobs of
various sorts. The number of jobs in
a town year in and year out, paying
good wages, reflects the condition of
a citys Industrial institutions.
"Of these 1880 jobs in Topeka,
there are 1000 in the Santa Fe shops,
/ 400 in the Santa Fe offices and 600
in the state house. court house and
city buildings This accounts for near
ly one-half the number of employed
people in the city. I estimate that
there are in the retail and wholesale
houses, law and insurance, the pro-
LESSONS, hospitals about 1000 persons,
which you see leaves $500 men and
women who are engaged in purely
manufacturing industries. These are
divided up as follows:
Printing, publishing, lithographing
and sales Industries, /, 900; flour, grain
and elevator lines. 500: telephone, tel
egraph. electric power, light and
transportation and related industries,
700; beds. bedding and springs. 125;
in packing of meats, poultry. butter
and eggs, 600; iron and steel fixtures,
boilers, foundries and machine shops.
large and small, 500; in baking indus
tries, 100; in steam laundries, 225; in
ice making and cold storage, $50; in
awnings, trusses, trunks. road supplies,
games, cigars, brooms, shirts sash and
doors, stone, bottling, lightning rods,
candy, gas engines and electric trans
mitters 1850.

DENIES HIS RENTS HIGH
Kemper Asserts They Have Been
Raised Only Once in Ten Years.

w. H. Kemper, chairman of the
county fair price committee. in reply
to the intimation of a Topeka grocer
that he was profiteering on his rents,
said he believed the rents asked for
the Kemper flats were among the
lowest, if not the lowest, charged in
Topeka.
He said that up until last Novem-
Der he had not raised the rents from
what they had been ten years ago.
His flats then were renting for $50
and $s5. On half of his apartments
he then added IS to the rent during
the winter months and proposes to do
the same on the others when their
leases expire. Kemper said other flat
owners raised their rates, two years
ago. He added that his coal bill this
winter will be double that of previous
wears

Would you not like to feel that
your stomach troubles are over, that
you can eat any kind Of food that

PROSPECTIVE DELAY
IN BUILDING BRIDGE
Disturbing to Residents Of Ninth
Ward. Who Regard Present
Structure Unsafe.

The probability Of an indefinite delay
in the building Of the new bridge over the
Brandywinc is very disturbing 10 residents
of the Ninth ward in particular, who re-
call that tho condition Of the present
structure is far frcm satisfactory in the
opinion Of the engineering authorities who
have reported on It. ).
About a year and 4 half ago the present
structure was practically condemned after
an inspection by an expert employed by
the Levy Court, and precautions were ad-
vised regarding speed Of vehicles and over
loading. Several years previous TO this a
warning was sounded as to the condition
of the bridge. !,
The preliminary estimates were based
on narrower bridge than has now been
decided on While tire $3.50, 600 bond issue
authorized by the last Legislature would
probably have covered the cost OF the
bridge made Of this width, il falls short
by $3.50 600 of the lowest bid received Tor
the wider structure, and at least $500
600 more bonds will have TO be provided
for, in the opinion of the commission.
Suggestion that the COMMISSION re-
wise It's plan so as To come within the
limits provided by the Legislature also
in declared unwise, IA il would mean
cutting down the width and adopting a
much less suitable design.
