Reasons for the Bonus
No. l: The Republican Party Promised It.

The following is from an article written by W. R.
Hearst giving six why the bonus should be
paid to the soldiers promptly. This is Mr.. Hearst's
first reason
FIRST. the Republican Party uhich controls the
present Congress, declared in its national platform
in favor of the soldier bonus and before the
country uOih that of its main issues.
If the elected Congress fails to carry its formal
platform pledge, the Senators and Representatives
DU be in the contemplate position of haUing pro-
fessed patriotic sentiment Which they did feel
in order to votes, and then having repudated
their pledges upon which they had been elected
w. r. HEARST.
The question of the BONUS is up to the Republican
Party A little later, when Congressional elections
come around, the question of the Republican PARTY
will be up to the soldiers
For a party to break it's word is always foolish and
unwise. For the Republican Party to break it's word
to the exservice men, well organized, intelligent and
well informed, would be political suicide The Repub
cans ought to know it.
If they cannot give the soldiers the bonus to which
they entitled from of gratitude decency and
because their word is pledged they will do we'll to pay
the bonus good politics and avoid the consequences
of treachery at the next election.

Balfour, aged statesman on the

Fortunately, another Congress,
another Administration, and an

that this country is still run BY
THIS COUNTRY.
One thousand mining engineers,
gathered in New York, give this
information. Japan's supply of
oil, including gasoline, will last
300 years. The United States
supply will be gone in about
twenty years. That is interesting

AYOT long ago an English naval
III authority wrote a book in
which he showed that COM
plete fertilization of Guam by the
United States would forever pre-
vent effective attack on this
country by Japan. 1t would put
in our hands, for defense, "a gun
aimed at Japan's heart"
A synopsis of that book was
published in this column. A few
weeks afterward the Washington
Conference gathers, and this coun-
try, to the shame of its Estates
men," allows itself to be told by
Japan and England that Guam
SHALL NOT be fortified.

TELLS OF FREIGHT BUSINESS
J. r. koontz. of Santa Fe, Speaks Be-
fore Topeka Cooperative Club.


]. r. Koontz. general freight agent
of the Santa Fe railroad, was the
speaker at a meeting of the Topeka
Cooperative club Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Koontz told of the transportation
problems of the United States.
During the last twenty-eight years
the industries and productivity of this
country have increased greatly, but
the transportation systems have not
Mr.. Koontz said. Much of the equip
ment of the Santa Fe railroad which
was installed twelve years ago, and
which, it was thought at that time,
would give service for fifty years, is
now insufficient to meet the needs of
the road"
Examples of this are passing tracks,
round houses and turn tables. Mr..
Koontz said that the passing tracks
which are now 1000 feet in length
should be extended at least 1000 feet.
The problem of passing tracks cannot
be solved by making the trains shorter
because this would cause a congestion
of the traffic. Altho railroads many
years ago were conducted merely from
a mercenary standpoint without a
thought of service. this condition has
changed and within the last twenty
five years every railroad system in the
United States is managed in such a
way that it will give the maximum
amount of service, according to Mr..
Koontz-

Peterson Had Faith.
If anyone in Kansas really believed
Davis would win, Peterson was the
man. If he wasn't actually sold to the
cause he at least played a wonderful
bunch. If he was merely sticking
thru on a gambling chance, he bet
bigger stakes than any other Kansan
