The feminine portion, of the population of Topeka is worrying for fear that tn cold weather will continue over Sunday so that it will be impossible to display the usual amount of Easter finery at the envrch services. The local weather man stated today that he is of the opinion that the present cold weather will not injure the prospects for a fruit crop this year. The buds were not very far advanced when the cold weather came. A meeting of the membership commit tee of the Commercial club under Harry Snyder, was held at the noon hour today to make plans for another club member ship campaign which will probably be held in the forepart of April.

Avalon Bakery, 831 Kansas Ave. Home of Good Eats v Lincoln, Neb., - March 21. Governor Hodges, of Kansas, who made the chief address of the celebration of Bryan's an niversary here, said in part: "I know not what star stood over the cradle of the infant son that was born in the Bryan home in Salem.' 111., March 19, 1860. It is sufficient for our purpose to know that for the last seventeen years, that boy, grown to manhood, has been the dominant figure in American politics, and is today stronger and more firmly forti fied in the public confidence, than any other man in American public life. "I come tonight, bearing to him from the people of Kansas; a message of con gratulation, of love and loyalty; and bringing to him the assurance, on this fifty-third anniversary of his birth, that in my state his name is still magic, and its mention is still greeted with oldtime applause. "A few years ago Lyman Abbott said: 'The career of William Jennings Bryan is without a parallel in American political historv.' In the course of the same article the distinguished editor of the Outlook said: 'His program is nothing less than a reconstruction of American political de mocracy and in our judgment he has in augurated a movement that will grow to formiaable proportions.' -This was said six or seven years ago. The prophecy has come true. Mr. Bryan has pushed the reconstruction of Ameri can political Democracy , to a -successful issue, and today the government of- the United States, and of most of the statM of this Union, is tri the-nands of -that re constructed Democracy. " "Mr. Abbott himself assigned the reason when he said that Mr. Bryan had le- , duced the 'profession of politics to an ' honest trade and wrought a moral revolu- tion in American public life. Because of i his soundness of heart, because more than any "living statesman he is thoroughly un der the compulsion of moral idealism, Mr. J Bryan has been able to keep the good J shiin Dxmocracv in her progressive course. . and has enabled her to weather storms that threatened to engulf and has brought her safely to harbor." -v.

TACK NOTICES ON TREES City Candidates Violating Anti-Posting Ordinances. Scores of complaints have come to the city hall and the office of the State Jour nal In the last few days because ot the actions of several candidates for city of fices in tacking to trees and poles throughout the city posters and cards announcing their candidacy for places on the city commission. inder the city ordinances it is a mis demeanor for any persons to tack a card or poster to a tree in the public parkings or to a pole without the consent of the owner. In many cases the candidates have fastened their announcements to cly electric light poles. No instructions have been given to the police to watch out for actions of this kind but there is a rumbling noise at the city hall which will break forth into a hail storm of police court notices unless the candidates remove their posters and refrain from carrying on this practice of advertising.
