in Kansas: The Boys Industrial
School at Topeka, the Girls Indus
trial School at Beloit and the Reform
atory at Hutchinson overcrowded and
with a waiting list of children who
have come under the jurisdiction of
these institutions through some in
fraction of the law.
While teaching at the Boys Indus
trial school I often talked with wo-
men visiting the institution who call
ed the boys little dears, remarked
what nice little fellows they were,
what remarkable work they were do
ing and how their hearts ached for
them They usually insisted that
they be given the names of some of
the boys so they could write them let
ters of encouragement and send them
candy. While their intentions were
of the best and their letters and boxes
| did make the boys happy, I always
wanted to remind them that these
same bright, well behaved little boys
who were turning out such creditable
work, both in the school and the shops
were the same little fellows who were
running the streets and allies in their
home town. At home they called
them little devils and taught their
children to shun them.
Children of these institutions are
not criminals, but simply unfOrtun-
ate and it is very unfortunate indeed
that they must commit crimes and
( be pronounced unlawful before they
attract your attention.
So in behalf of the future of these
children, let's hope they find a place

Ed Clemans is one of the Demo-
cratic candidates who has never Wis
tied his Democratic brethren in Ellis
county, but from the way they voted
for him at the late primary it is quite
evident they have heard of his high
standing among his neighbors of
southeast Kansas. Not more than
one-third of the vote of Ellis county
was polled at the recent primary, but
Mr.. Clemans went away ahead of his
two Republican opponents, receiving
584 votes, to PIT for D. o. McCray
and 169 for Frank Ryan, or a major
ity over both of 1873. That vote given
to Mr.. Clemans is probably one-third
of the Democratic strength of Ellis
county, and it is presumed that he
will lead the Democratic ticket with
from 1900 to 1900 votes in this
county. If he could get out here and
spend one of his kind of vacations
he might even do better than that.

plane over Hays, Saturday P. M.
These men are some of the best
Daredevil stunt flyers in the coun-
try and will give US the same exhibi-
ton that they put on for the largest
fairs, aerial meets, etc.
They have performed at the New
York state fair, and Missouri, Kansas
and Oklahoma state fairs. Their per-
formance in Sterling, Colorado, drew
a crowd of $4,000 people.
Chubby Watson will perform the
following feats: Stand on head on
wings, stand on one foot, stand on
hands on top wing, hang from lower
plane by toes, and by one foot. Hangs
from a trapeze seven feet below the
landing gear. Hangs by his teeth
from this trapeze and spins like a
top. Lots of other stunts in addition.

Topeka, Oct. 1.-THE Kansas
Non-Partisan League is going to bat
for the Democratic state ticket this
year. The NPL has been made up
largely of Democrats, but it also
drew a fair sprinkling of Republicans,
a few Socialists, and some Independ-
ents. But since the endorsement Of
Davis for Governor, only the more
radical are following the leaders.
One of the principal things for
which the same element in the party
contended was lower taxes. They
know now that state taxes will be cut
from 2235 mills to 1.66 mills, and
that has convinced the great majority
of the farmers that the party Of Lin
coin was the "Grand Old Party they
always thought it was. Consequent
ly there is a steady drift to the Re-
publicans, and the Democrats would
like a new issue.

RECITAL

The Recital at the Normal auditor
ium last Monday night, by Miss Helen
Pestana, under the auspices of the
ladies of the Presbyterian Church,
was a delightful event and drew a
splendid audience. Miss Pestana was
accompanied by her sister, Mrs. Neis-
wanger, and assisted by Mr.. Roberts,
Mrs. Wooster and Mrs. Malloy, giving
a variety to the program which was
greatly enjoyed. The atmosphere of
appreciative listeners enabled the per
formers to be at their best. Not only
the Aid Society for whose benefit the
recital was freely given, but also Miss
Pestana's many friends in Hays which
is her home and where she has render
ed valuable service in the past by her
musical talent, expressed their gratifi-
cation for the opportunity Of hearing
her again on this occasion. She leaves
this week, to resume her work near
New York City.

"But, Mr.. Wrigley, you've spent

man is steady and growing. Isn't it

hundred thousands of dollars a year

asked.
The Spearmint king thought a mo-
ment, and then replied:

LIE sPIRIT o. FRATERNITY

The development of brotherly af-
fection in lodges and fraternities and
other organizations is one of the fin
est aspects of our so-called selfish
American life. Now if the same
spirit can only come into the commun-
ity as a whole, and establish interest
in and care for the weakest and most
struggling elements of people, our
social problems will be largely solved.
There is too much tendency for
folks to think only of their own COM
fort and prosperity and pay no atten-
ton to how others are getting along.
Persons of wealth and good incomes
will fret and complain because good
servants are scarce and high priced,
or because labor costs high and they
get efficient service. Their COM
plants are often perfectly justified,
and they may be gouged by shirking
help.
But if they would compare their
situation with that of many struggling
people, they would realize that they
have little to complain of. They
should think of the man with a fam
ily of children who has been unable
to get regular work. Or they should
contemplate the condition of the
widow who has children to support. If
they will go down into the poorer
quarters of their own home town,
they will find plenty of people whose
lot is infinitely worse than theirs.
These complainers have perhaps
had to give up some luxuries that they
used to enjoy. But many of these
people have too many Iuxuries, and
it would do them no harm to cut down
some features of their lavish living,
and find more of their pleasures from
association with the common run of
people. The enjoyments that come
from extravagant spending quickly
disappear.
The world will be in a good deal of
turmoil until this spirit of considera-
tion and friendship becomes mare
general and until people do their ut
most to remove evils that cause suf-
fering and distress.-Lindsbor

A KANSAN'S IDEA OF A VACA.
TION

This is a story about a Kansan's
idea of a vacation. The fellow is Ed
Clemans, Democratic candidate for
Secretary of State. Mr.. Clemans
lives at Longton, Elk county, where
he has for a number of years been in
the lumber business. His early home
is Linn county, out in the country
where the farmers raise big crops and
big families.
And that has to do with Ed Gle
mans vacation notion. There is one
big family of Eds old neighbors num-
bering fourteen, and six of them are
voters. And they are all Democrats.
But that won't make any difference in
Linn county, for Republicans and
Democrats down there are for him.
It's the same among the big Repub-
hcan families. But Ed Clemans likes
to go and stay few days with these
farmers with big families because,
he says, there is no second-table bust
ness for the smaller children. At
meals a great table is spread with
good things to eat like fried chicken,
brown gravy, biscuits, etc, and all
the family and visitors assemble for a
banquet three times a day. "Ah,
that's the way to live and enjoy life,
and have a real vacation" this old
warrior told bunch of Democrats in
Topeka.
Now, then, if Ed Clemans likes
large Democratic families who always
vote the ticket straight, and who live
like kings, he should come out to
Ellis county and have a little vaca-
ton. We understand he has prom
ised our local Democrats at Hays and
over the county TO come and visit
with the folks between the election

W. P Wasinger, dentist, in com
pany with Billie Geyer, sustained a
severed artery in his right hand last
Monday night, when the car in which
they were riding suddenly turned tur-
tie.
The two men were driving east on
the Golden Belt highway when the
accident occurred. At a point three
and one-half miles west of Ellis,
where the highway makes a reverse
curve and crosses the Union Pacific
tracks, Geyer who was driving the
car, was reported to have been blind
ed and confused by the glaring lights
of an approaching car.
In effort to avert a collision, the
machine DETECTED from the road and
crashed into an embankment throw

AS predicted, the price of paving is
coming down considerably. In the
Kansas City Star of Sunday, was an
article from the Kansas State High
way commission showing that the
price of paving State roads in the
state, eighteen feet wide, of concrete,
has been reduced from over $4,000
a mile last year to the latest contract
given out last week, of less than $780,
900 a mile, hundreds of miles having
been given out lately at about that
figure. The Hutchinson News of last
Saturday gives a new low figure in
street paving, their City Commission
ers last Thursday giving out con-
tracts for paving several streets in
that city, with asphalt at $2.25 a
square yard, or $8,O46 for three
blocks of the paving. Brick paving
was let at $3.50 a square yard.
Another street, Sherman avenue,
leading to the Reformatory, was also
ordered laid with sheet asphalt at the
same price. The lowest bids in Hays
have been $3.O7 for brick and $3.50
for the asphalt, both guaranteed for
five years, as in Hutchinson.
