Robinson THINGS ACCOMPLISHED In reviewing the work of the recant legislature, William Allan White in his Emporia Gazette, comoludea with the following reference to the things accomplished through the progressive movements, kd by Governor Sfcubbs. The program of W. R. Stubbs. as he laid it out eix years ago, when he wt-at into politics wiith his eyes o)n been almost accomplished.

The records is now almost complete. We have the state printer elected. state treasury paying interest to t'ie i.ieopie. The state instltut'ons urder 2 Miles North 0 I McCrary htgli-clans beards, out of politics. The banks operating under guarantee to pay certain depositor Lobbyists registered.

We have a direct vcte on United States senators. A Just inheritance tax law. A workingman'8 compensation law. am authorized to sell for i i A and Mile West ry over what the dog tax is go ns ito be. I never owned a dog.

When a real dapper and poIit young man eomes in to sell me a book I can't rid of the idea that he is doing it for one of two reason: jti is titaer go.ng to ba a niinsieer or a lawyer. About nine-tenths of tin people i who blame the Lord when they havy had bad luck forget to thank Him i when goad fortunes comes thir way. Don't waste any t'me or worry over the fool. He always hs a good time. "Deacon," said a fellow to rue the other day, "you ma.inta.'a the best average of any philosopher I 'ever run across.

I re- plied. "Yes, you continue to say ten fool things to every smart one." Every onre ia awhi'e somebedy will point out a neighbor and say. "He has all kinrls of nerve." But what does all kinds of nerve mean? Is your idea of a man who has ail kinds of nerve one who isn't afrvd the bluest man on earth? Is your Idea of a man of nerve one who is chump enough to waik right up to a fool who has a gun leveled at him and try to slap the fool's face? Genuine nerve doesn't consist of am act of foolhardiness. Many a fragile little woman has more nerve than the wildest cowboy who ever rode the frontier. The man into whose heart the Iron barb of grief has been shot and whose cross ia bowing Ma back, furrowing his face and whitening bis hair; this man who never uters a word of complaint but goes about his business with a smile md kind word for all; I say he is the fellow with the real nerve.

The little womani who bara her burden without a complaint and whose life is made worse than that of th giave scourged to his dungeon; who fights day after day with a song the hideous phantoms of shades she should be the one to wear the medals for nerve, and not the woman who fen't afraid to go to sleep at night without looking under the bed. Th's thing of nerve you can't a'ways tell about until you have seen the metal put through the crucible. Bert Walker. jriLE YOUft FACTS, COLLEY SAYS Ciiarge That Enask Abet ng Rcasrted.

I immediately took the matte up with Attorney General Jackson and under his opinion ordered the banks to at once cease handling such bills of lading.

Cloud County formerly called Shirley county, receiving its name in derision after Jane Shirley, a notorious Atchison courtesan. Through the efforts of J. B. Rupe, late editor of the Clyde Herald, ita name was changed to Cloud county in honor of the gallant Col. W.

F. Cloud, of the Second Kansas cavalry. J. B. Rupe was the first representative from Cloud County.

The first settlers were John and Fow'er, two trapers who located thair claims near the pr sent townsite of Clyde, in 1838. The death of Jaccb H.Ter, who accidentally shot himself, is recorded the first in tie of the county. Soon aTter th-5 gret Indian raid in tj.Vi-braska the report cLrcu'a'ed, tli.t t.he had a'lied wl certain i.iuian tribes to raid frcm to tli?

In 1871 the Unit-d States land -fice was located at Concordia and provrd a great boon for the town. OREGON PLAN Topeka, March 11, After practically all hope for it had been given up the Oregon plan of electing United States senators was passed by the Hou3e yesterday, and since It had already been passed by the Senate it awaits only the Governor's signature before It becomes a law. The bill pas3ed was Introduced by Senator T. M. Potter, although it Is simlllar to thebill intro duced in the House by Robert Stone, of Shawnee county.

The Stone bill had been killed in the House. The bill provides that the candidates for United States senator shall be nominated the same as at present under the primary election law. They will s'ill be nom'nated by a majority of the legislative district But there is much change In the present law following that. The name of the candidates for United States senator will appear on the ballots at the regular election and the people wtll vote for them. However, that Is more a second nomination than an election for the people can not really elect the United States senator.

They may merely instruct or advise the members, of the Legislature, who will, in turn, elect the senator. Dan Sexamlth returned to Wray, Colorado, this morning, after spending a here visiting his parents Mr. and Mrs. J. D.

Sexsmlth, PROMINENT REBEKAH Many Odd Fellows in Concordia and Cloud County will be shocked to bear of the death of Mrs. Jennie Wehe, which sad event took place at Topeka, on Friday laet. She had long been Identifird wl Rebekah branch of the Independent Ordsr of Odd Fellows, and was tha sixth president of the Rebekah assembly of Kansas, holding that office In 1893-4. At the time it was decided to establish an orphans' and 0I4 folks home under the auspices of the I. O.

O. she was chosen a member of the board, hoid'mg the of president which position she held for a number of years, voluntarily resigning from the- board because of 111 health, but it Is unquestionably a fact that much of the success of that institutiion, the Odd Fellows Home near MarahatttOTi, is largely dui to her work as an executive ofifcer.

Topeka, March, 11. A workmen's compansation law for Kansas was assured yesterday afternoon when the Senate concurred in the House amenc ments to the Senat3 committee bill. Kar-sas is the second state in this county ocr-tcta workmen's compensation law. New York being the lead er la thia respect. However, these who have studied the coropemsat'on acts of the two states assert That Kansas' law Is far superior to the New York larw and is more to the workmen.

The compensation law as it finally merged from the Leg'slature is Intended to give automatic conpersi-tion to injured workmen in all industries of thj state, except arricultural, and th employers and employes of all plants, factories, inine3, stc, which empy f.e or ere pr ctica'iiy conip 1 eJ ur.ior th; pr avis ices ol Llie I act.
