This question will be voted on March 29th and as usual much will be said pro and con relative to the motives and virtues of a commission form of government. There will be a few concientious voters, who have failed to investigate the splendid results obtained in nearly two hundred cities by the commission form of government, who will still live in the old style of city government, but the class of men who will offer the most vigorous opposition to this advanced idea of municipal rule, will be in a gag of fellow promoted by avarice and official greed, who cast at the public eye and garmandize at the taxpayer's expense, a bunch of political pop advocates and municipal barmacles, prompted by such motives who never overload an opportunity for private gain at public expense. Such is the class of men who are being supplanted all over the nation by the commission form of government. That is deplorable and that is the condition of municipal affair, reprinted for TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING MARCH 1, 1912. that he may vote upon them intently. He should not be lured deceived by any temporary benefit he may be deriving in he expo- dence at this time under the form of city government that he should consider carefully and will spendful and pay more bounties forthcoming under the committee in better streets, enhanced val- ues of real estate, more work, and tax laws and a city of 20,000 at a cap- acity distant. The commission form of government is the type pro- ducer of the most advanced thought and study along the lines of com- municipal city government. Its prac- ticability has been fully and pati- cally established. It is both an antidote for and a prevention of ting and machine corruption in municipal affairs. It is the proper movement for Arkansas city, and let every colored voter and taxpayer join in the forward movement for a bigger and better city, and let him work, talk and vote for a commission form of government No place in business in Arkansas City reflects more credit upon that thirty and outpursuing town than Axley's Cold Storage Meat Market. This market, under the personal supervision of Mr. Frank Axley, enjoys a lucrative and appreciative trade. His watchword and motto is "In my," and every product old in place is guaranteed pure and wholesome. His employees caredous and his delivery system is quick and unscored. Mr. Axley has lived in Arkansas City many years and his passion of honesty and spirit of doing has won for him a legion of friends. He is broad and liberal and has always been fair and jacquard people and enjoys a large patronage among them. the Akansas City Mining Company is a substantial plumbing institution whose products have favourably interfaced the Binder City to all parts of the world. Its famous brand of current flour is known far and near, and wherever used by a how-to wife, she becomes a regular customer. The mill has a capacity of 1000 bldgs. of flour and 2000 bldgs. of real per day. The names of the others C. H. Searng, president and manager; I. Mark Love, vice president and general attorney; and H. H. Hall, secretary and treasurer, are sufficient guardians of honesty, integrity and square dealing. The institution is one of the largest in Southwestern Kansas and speaks much for the push and business capital of its collectors. From Current Books. a intimate personal insights at all town on many man has wathough out the country by Dr. bocker L. Washington in his latest book, "My Largest Education," recently published by Doubleday, Page & co. In one place he says: "I shall never forget a remark made to me by Mr. John D. Rochester when I was spending an evening at his house. It was to this of fact: 'Always be master of the details of your work; never have too many loose outer edges or fringes.'" A little later on he observes: "I have been thrown in frequent contact with Col. Henry Watterson, of the Loom ville Counter-Journal. Col. Watterson seems to me to represent the southern gentleman of the old school, a man of generous impulses, high ideals, and gracious manner. I have had frequent and long conversations with him about the Negro and about conditions in the south. If there is anywhere a man who has broader or more liberal idea concerning the Negro, I have not met him. "A few years ago when a meeting had been arranged at Carnegie Hall New York, in order to interest the public in the work of our school at Luskegue, we were disappointed in securing a distinguished speaker from the south who had promised to be present. At the last moment the committee in charge to graphed to Colonel Watterson. Although (because of the death of one of his children) he had made up his mind not to speak again in public for some time, Colonel Watterson went to New York from Louisville and made one of the most eloquent speeches in behalf of the Negro that I have ever heard." As is well know Dr. Washington and had saved and econom on that basis, soon became with any effort on his part a $100,000 He had no more land, nor was a productive.

Seven year of his high prices has not left us able to stand three months of low prices, says R. Melvie William son in the News and Courte Ten years ago no one died to hope for such prosperity as we have enjoyed. Yet in spite of this phenomenal property, in a few short months the funds herself turned and it was few of us in whose worth, to conceive furnishing "Give us but our present cotton and we will try independent." This has had yet then independent of independence as unanticipated times have witnessed in the past we have to right in the future in part of wisdom to prepare for the years of high hopes, to for that we need that we do our heads, bodies much of more value. The south has never known such a state of troubles spending as to toll options of cotton and we debt it in order that we might make a lot of cotton, and no doubt that for luxuries, to be paid the same, and a sum of rapids, in place with the ten more mankind to approach himself worth and had saved and economized that basis, soon became without any effort on his part a sloppy. He had cotton land, nor was it productive. Yet he was now someone that must live, spend it to organize as beneficial a station in life. This he had to do. We had all silently become rich for though, both without knowing how it had become about our own stained without that. The so we did not regret to abuse, by the greatest extravagance in the making expensive crops of cotton as well as in gratifying all of our long- In south was craved by prosperity and reached in extravagance. Give anybody wanted everybody closely hands at any kind of prices. The most expensive reads only were privileged to cultivate our great monopoly. They were of western origin, so was their costly food Guano was used in the greatest profusion and confusion. The Negro center who had been making from three to four bales of cotton, with out seriously hurting himself or the market, was eagerly sought as a partner in two, three and four horse-share crops. He likewise was furnished with the most expensive equipment, it being essential that he should make it a big crop of cotton in order that we might get a big half And he made it. Lands long con- sidered worthless were reclaimed, and under the stimulating effects of heron closes of fertilizer, so far forgot themselves as to yield anomalous trops of cotton. Yet these extraordinary results brought us no happiness. Our partner seemed to have standing method to his expense ac- count, for which we are responsible. In fact, it grew from the start with phenomenal rapidity until it has become as a fly yes, a whole swarm of flies, in the continent. And now we and the cotton which our said partner has not yet picked are about one shade of bluiness. Nor are we the only sufferers but it has gone up as the to- m of methods a splendidly the part of the farm of powerful and our tough to be processed of an disease to agricultural I could care for them to up to付出 who the farmer I had made possible They entitled with the good they had derived from our a.

Say the Big Champion is Going Back and that them is Coming Up— "Cate Holt" is Putting Johnson to the Bad—Other Sport Gossip combat man, has no chance in his combo battle with Jack Johnson for the heavyweight championship of the world, why did Ilya and his manager, Jack Curry, miss the match? Well, it is easy for Ilya and his manager to give good and sufficient reasons for this running then head, and especially Ilya into this sup precisely usually most. "While I was in Europe I saw much of Johnsen and had to take no one of the way he was living there" was Jack Culley to the sporting editor of the Star. "He was much in evidence in the book and cafes in Paris and every time I saw him I told that it once scrappy, game fell low would how up he would take the tilt away from him. As a matter of fact I thought I knew of some middle weights in America who could skip him in the condition I noticed he was in several times. "Mind you this was long before I had any idea of looking up with Jim Dynew. When I returned to this country I saw Carl Moris and gave him a grand outside chance of being the lucky man against the big black they told me that Ilynn had given Al Kaufman an wonderful beating in ban as City, such a beating that pan Al was laid up for seventy-two hours, and Ilynn was under police surveillance Kaufman ruled a one to three first choice, but it was Ilynn's light over every inch of the way "Before that contest there had been much talk of matching Kaufman against Johnson, he being considered the ideal" white hope," in dred, as I remember it, Jack was roasted severely for seeming to dangle at when the late Billy Delaney and Billy Brady offered to find a fat parse for the scrap. "Now, if Kaufman was so well contolled to a match with Johnson why is not the man who so thou oughtly whipped Kaufman? This query goes directly and portentily to Brady, Masterson, Carbatt and the other wise follows who conceived Kaufman such a grand chance with Johnson. "Then, too, please consider that John in never would give Sam Langford a chance, side-stopping him persistently and religiously. Did not Ilynn once beat Langford in Los Angeles in ten rounds, getting every newspaper decision there after the contest? "And did not Ilynn land out an Price $1.50 Per Year. unmerciful beating to Carl Morris, such a batting, so fact that the officer, Charley White nearly lost his life in the stopping it and bad Morris a much lauded lynchman who would have a named him the real gods and would have demanded that John be right the lahoma in. As a matter of fact the match would have been made the follow one day. "Now then, here's the point. If Kaufman lange good and Morris were in battles for Johnson, why not the man who beat them all?" "Five years ago Johnson beat Ilynn, who weighed 155 pounds, and was really an unexpected beginner. Today Ilynn weighs 147, knows now to plow in and at the same time protect himself. "Surely no one will say that Johnson is any better today than he was then. And besides this, five years ago Ilynn did not stop Ilynn he packed away at him until he gave him a hot eye and had him bleeding so that Mrs. Ilynn jumped into the ring in the eleventh round and stopped the battle, the referee refusing to permit the game and still walking Ilynn should continue. Coast critics have told in, this "If for Johnson beat Jeffries did the people think he was so much? Martin Hurt went twenty-five rounds with him and even if the decision was questionable Hurt was there and fighting hard at the end Johnson did not knock out Burns in Australia Burns always claimed it was a better decision that stopped the battle. So much for John on's championship career. "And Dylyn claims that Johnson is no match as good not as he was two years ago, and in so will be that good again. Curtis further points out that it will be two years to the day on the past earth of July since Johnson has had trouble, that the black man is thirty-five years of age or over, has lived rapidly, and amused up, never was a man fallen in the war.

Among the sturdy, conscientious pioneers who came to Cowley county in the early days, none is a more splendid type of those honest and persevering settlers than E. W. Coulson, who settled in Beverwil ship in 1871, with a determination to make a success, and, ambition with a spirit of honesty and perseverance, he stuck it out, and his efforts have been crowned with abundant success. Mr. Coulson is an old soldier, with a record of four years of gallant service in defense of Old colony. He consisted in Company E, 79th Ohio Infantry Volunteers, in November, 1861, and was mustered out in July, 1862.

We do not think it necessary to give any special recipes, but believe every cook will have better results by using her own recipes, adding enough kaffir flour to suit the case. We recommend mixing from one-half to three-fourth kaffir flour with wheat flour for pancakes, muffins and gems, and for doughnuts, cakes, fruit cakes, or any other kind of pastry from one-fourth to one-third kaffir flour. It has a sweet, rich and delicious flavor, is easy to digest, and every time you eat it, you will like it better. We use the correct system of milling and only the best selected white kaffir corn.

IN ASSISTING MAIL PER MONTH PER ISSUE. PICK THEDAY KAILY A record of the Predecessor of Issued class Wall Matter Dr. Soll, Germa secretary of state for the colonies, who recently gave rise to a good deal of discussion in regard to the future of the Portuguese colonies, has issued an order for bidding marriage between Germans and natives in Samoa In adopting this into rate manner of dealing with a difficult and delicate question the minister reinstates himself in the good graces of the Conservation and Center parties who had for a long time had carried on a campaign against those marriages, and had complained that Dr. Golf, both when governor of Samoa and in the colonial office, had not hown himself duly alive to the danger of the deterioration of both races in the colony. The order will, however, create some dismay in Samoa, where many German settlers many native girls, who are often beautiful and noted for their charm of character and stature. Monsters are rarely treated in legal, and the children we considered Germans, but in the fine the offspring of any irregular towns will be treated as invites. An other matter affecting the welfare of the colonies has been dealt with by the Imperial commander. The total mass law of 1840 does not apply to the colonies, and is both German and slave newspapers reasonably publish matter likely to enlarger the public welfare especially articles creating bad feeling between Europeans and natives it has been formal necessary to use some control and rules for punishment have been issued by the commander. The supreme court of Louisiana in a decision handed down Monday held that a Negro has vested rights to a seat in a street car, despite the "Jim Crow" law in effect in New Orleans and other Louisiana cities and that he cannot be moved from a seat in the white compartment of a car provided there is no seat in the Negro section. The appeal was that of John Anderson against the New Orleans Railway and Little Company, the court a host, the service of them was awarded. In interest the mount for 520 in partitions and the no room in the hold that a court but com to it. While he found a seat in the court assigned to his place the court has right by moving the partition to put him in the wrong compartment when there is no seat to be found in the compartments thus newly established for his case. A number of other cases has been the "Jim Crow" law now not pending in the courts. Mon Aug 18th in Rox The following extract from a letter from Dr B T, Gallovay, chief of the bureau of plant industry, to the secretary of agriculture on this information that is both interesting and valuable on the Border ranch near Victoria, Texas, and the varied and extensive agricultural activities of a very businesslike outback farmer. "You will probably be Mr. Kinsler, the young man who was for merely connected with Dr. Shepard in the ten year and we later sent to Texas, in connection with our cotton and other investigations. Mr. Kinsler has headquarter at Victoria and keeps in very close touch with Mr. Borden, whose plantation you visited some years ago when you will probably remain a having made a special trip to India to introduce the humpback 'Brahman cattle. Mr. Borden's efforts in the preparation of the Brahmans is proud, very successful. Last season we optionally reserve one in the matter of ticks, and while it was necessary to dip his thoroughbred earth and shorthorns from the time the cross-bred cattle went through the season without a tick, who ever, and were practically free from ticks. Mr. Kinsler further so that as a rule the breed cattle are averaging from 100 to 200 heavier than the strong breeds when grown. "is indicating that it is not necessary to sow the crop at the time it is produced last year 155 tons of sorghum seed. The old heir to farmers of Texas for further and the sorghum itself be sold. He usually cuts two crops, leaving the third crop for seed. At best it cutting Mr. Hoden averaged fifteen tons of village and sixty bushels of seed per acre. He produced last year over 25,000 bushels of corn and 400,000 pounds of rice. He has 11,000 acres in rice, and Mr Kinler states that he produces about two per cent of the rice crop of the United States area in alfalfa, which he cuts two or three times. He is going quite extensively into hog raising and is shipping it now to Port Worth and Houston. Night outloads of his place in short time, Mr Kinler tells me. He is not producing so much cotton as formerly, owing to the fact that he finds other crops more profitable. He has now about 1100 acres to cotton. A quite radical change has recently been made in his labor force at the convict farm, which you visited while we were in Texas. The state has been steadily raising the price of convict labor moreover the rules, under pressure. have been made so strict that it was found difficult to get the convicts to do a full day's work, hence Mr. Borden got rid of them all and is now conducting his farm through the help of Russian presents. These men are brought in directly from Galveston and he pays them $20 per month and feeds them, and takes care of them when they are sick. Mr. Kinler says that for two or three years they make a great excellent farm help. After that they become安排ized and strike out for themselves as small land renters or tenants owners. They do much better work, however than the Negro convicts and don't lay to be made or kept in. It is in the fact in a lymph-large Mr. A. D. has been the last five years quite materially changed the system of feeding cattle. He has divided up his extensive grazing grounds into pasture and though his production of corn, sorghum, silage and similar crops has been able to greatly intensify his production. He now has about 100 head of cattle, and orders to maintain about that number every year. All of his cattle are fed silage, in fact everything on the place is fed silage at some time. The alfalfa furnishes excellent grazing ground for his hogs so that practically all of this crop is used up on the place. LINCOLN, MFB. Mr. and Mrs. T. W.
