SOME STATE PLANKS

The Republican Party Council
adopted platform, and as chair
man Of the committee was able to
secure party pledges for all the
propositions which l have been writ
ing about during the last few
months, says w. Y. Morgan, Repub.
lican candidate for governor in his
Hutchinson News. The platform as
. whole is worthy Of consideration
but probably the people Of Western
Kansas wal have special interest
In the resolutions on state subjects
which were made In Hutchinson"
Here are the planks to which re-
fer:
State and Expenses
Following q period Of war, produc-
Ing unrest and extravaganza In all
lines Of life, comes time for readjust-
nent and economy. To q legisla-
live and administrative program Of
economy we pledge the nominees Of
our party with an assurance to the
people that they will make a SUBJ
stantial reduction In the amount of
money required for the government
81 the state.
Assessment Reform
The assessment laws Of Kansas
are not suited to present conditions
IN the state. Farm lands lare as
sessed too high. The home owaer
and the merchant are compelled to
pay more thaa their share. The bor-l
rover on real estate security is re-
CURED to pay double tax; on the
mortgage and on the property. The
legislature should submit to the
voters Of the state constitutional
amendment, permitting q system Of
assessment which is fair and in ac-
cord with the right principles Of poll
teal economy. Such a reform in our
assessment law will supplement o
reduction Of state expenses and bring
real relief which win be both help
ful and permanent.
A Bedget System
The state should have q. budget
system which win place the respon-
sibility for appropriations upon the
sxeepfiJe department which handles |
tie institutions and business Of the
state. We are IN favor Of q budRet

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN
AGAINST BARBERRY

Cleanup work in the destruction of
barberry bushes was started in Wayne
county Wednesday with the arrival o.
two experts sent by the federal depart
ment of agriculture. c. II Miller, for
merly of Purdue and Fl. K. Snively Of
Cornell university will have charge OF
th OK
This is continuation of the cam
paign conducted this summer in
Wayne county by Parker Druley and
H. H. Rogers, which resulted in the
destruction of a large number OF
bushes. The few which were over.
looked are now TO be uprooted also.
Agricultural authorities of Ohio and
Indiana are cooperating in an especial
effort this year, to clean up counties
along the state line so that counties
which have been covered will not be
re-infected by paintings which may
still stand across the line. Preble
county authorities destroyed a large
patch near Lewisburg last year
The common and purple barberry
bushes, formerly popular in orna-
mental paintings, are the ones con
demned. The Japanese barberry is
harmless. Great damage is done to
the wheat crop every year by blacl,
stem rust one stage of which lives over
on barberry By destroying the host,
the eight per cent average yearly loss
in Indiana's wheat crop will be pre-
vented.
Those who have the bushes or who
know OF any along roadsides or in
woodlands, may have them destroyed
by notifying the country agents office
The Importance of such action may be
understood from reports of some
Wayne committees which have suffer

ed from rust. In one case a single
bush was responsible for almost abso
lutte failure of the wheat crop for a
period of Is years, within a so yard
radius and a decrease of the yield for
a whole 30 acre field.

MERELY A CAMPAIGN LIE
Ocala, May 31st, 1922.

Ocala, May 31st, 1922.
Editor Star: My attention has been
called to the fact that my opponent is
circulating the report that | am being
run for the purpose of passing re-
forestation bill.
I wish to say that this is merely a
campaign lie. l am opposed to any
bill that would tend to exempt lands
from taxation and have so repeatedly
expressed myself.
I have again and again said that
what | thought the people of Florida
most needed was fewer laws than we
have, not more laws. / know of no
new law we need except such laws as
tend to reduce appropriations, cut off
office holders and repeal some of the
thousands of pages of laws that we
now have. Respectfully,
d&w1t F. r. Hooker.
