change; and when knowledge becomes
more accurate, more extensive, and
more generally diffused, change must
necessarily take place in the same ra-

society. knowledge disseminated will
convince the masses and change will
follow as a necessary consequence.

THAYER, KANSAS, in
CONTROL OF WOMEN
But They Promise No Great
Reforms as Yet

Thayer, Kan. April 29.-The femi-
nine government, of this town, swept
into power at the recent municipal
election, promises Thayer a business
like, forward-looking administration"
but is not announcing any f1amboy-
ant promises of reform. The entire
women's ticket-mayor, police judge
and five councilwomen-was elected
by four to one vote over the mems
ticket. This is the only town in the
state which has a woman mayor.
I'VE have no campaign pledges to
fulfill; we made no pledges, for we
were drafted for the nominations"
asserted Mrs. A. II. Forrest the new
mayor. However we intend to
serve with all our hearts and trust
that we will produce results, rather
than promises.
This town, like many small towns
you know our population was only
528 in the last census-was suffering
from ennui. The women of the
town through the women's clubs have
been trying to do things for the town,
and have succeeded to some extent.
However, l believe we will be in
position to do much more now that
we have an entire corps of city
efforts.
Neither myself nor any of my as
sociates was consulted in regard to
the nomination. 1t was conferred on
us by those who stand for pro-
gressive policy, and they manufac-
tured the slogans of the campaign.
Get Thayer out of the jack-oaks
stage and Vote for the women; it
means clean town
I'VE shall try to give the city a
businesslike, forward looking admin
istration. Just what our program
will be, L cannot say until we have
met and formulate ted one"
Heretofore the "city fathers have
been for the most part aged men.
The mems ticket in the recent cam
paign was dubbed 1.-The jack-oaks
ticket" due to the fact that all the
candidates were men past So years, it
was said. The head of the ticket
Col. j. n. Dunsmore, was chosen be-
cause of his recognized, ability as a
political organizer and fighter. Duns-
more was a state leader of the Popu-
list party thirty years ago. He was
the Populist speaker of the house of
representatives during the famous
Legislative war of 1893 when the
Pops attempted to prevent the re-
publican faction from entering the
hall. 1t was during this fiery
session that Dunsmore acquired the
sobriquet, THE Bald Hornet of
Neosho County," --~s
But the women candidates did not
quail before so formidable an OPP
ponent as Dunsmore. At the eleventh
hour Dunsmore announced his with
drawal from the race. All his CO.
candidates however, stayed in the
race and were defeated.

Principal Slade today gathered the
pupils and gave them a lecture upon
their carelessness and vandalism with

buildings connected with the school
systems hardly formed something to
which class might point with pride,
he explained although he was able to
overlook many of the pranks con-
nected with class spirit which did no
permanent harm to anyone. He
asked for school spirit which would
supplant any such class spirit, al
though that, also, might be main

of the needs of a school which would
act as q unit. -s.
