Mr.. Nlchoi says his company will
purchase the Emporia road at its
actual cost to present owners. The
proposition to run on the track of
the Odessa road from Walnut to But
Ter, is based solely on the question
of cost. The east line of Bates can
be reached by way of Butler for
SIoo, 900 less than through Rich
HILL. Railroads are built to make
money and that is why the Emporla
may come to this city. Butler will
do her utmost to secure this through
line from the West to St Louis.

really exceeds that. Bates county

A Women's Reformatory Prison.

On Tuesday, Feb. Goth, Mr.. Foss will present
to the judiciary committee of the Legislature
bill for reformatory prison for women.
At the State convention of the W. G. T. U.
held in Rockland last October the following
resolution was adopted:
ResolUed, That in our efforts to help Gun
fortunate women" we realize the necessity of
.'reformatory prison for women,' and we
will take immediate action towards securing
the same.
The attention of the women connected with
the above organization has been called to the
Importance of having female criminals placed
under restraint for longer time, than the
ordinary sentence given to them at the iails
and houses Of correction in order that good
moral influences may surround them, and
some habits Of industry be taught them. There
is large class who live upon the State being
constantly at the jaiis or houses of correction.
In many instances these women have good i'm
pulses which If rightly directed under whole
some restraint might make them useful and
respectable members of society. The petitions
which the ladies have circulated throughout
the State have received the endorsement and
sympathy of the best men and women and the
fact that municipal judges, The present and ex-
warden of State prison and the prison inspec-
tors recognize the Importance of this move
m t, should give weight to the petition.
The ladies who have been prominent in this
movement Ito whom any undue publicity is
ditasteful) have felt it 10 be simply an act of
Christian womanhood in behalf of the "un-
fortunate women" in the State.
