Too Tender for ANY Good

as instancing the senseleSs ideas
entertained by some fool .canks
back east" about Dakota storms. il
may be stated that the men who were
in Hand county during the threshing
season called the Illinois outfit. were
so dun fuddled" and scarf" about
being caught in a "blizzard' that
when they encountered their first
snowstorm a week or two ago-they
dropped everything-not putting
away the belts ON their machine and.
when right in the midst Of lob
abandoned everything, and dug OUT
for home as though Satan himself
was after them. Pure and unadul-
terated fright was all that allied them.
1t Is to be hoped that the eleven
mothers Of those eleven suckers.
will keep them alive after they get
home with nursing bottles, filled with
warmed milk seasoned with catnip.
They are too tender by all means for
roughing it in "Blizzardy Dakota"
The farmers whom they left in the
lurch by skedaddling are forced to
run the machine themselves to get
their threshing done.

Kansas Newspapers Will Combine to OPP

~
pose the Ready Print Combine.
A convention Of the publishers of
Kansas has been called to meet in
Topeka, December 81. for the organ
ization of a cooperative newspaper
union, composed entirely of the news
paper publishers of the state. Such
men as ex-senator II. b. Kelley of
Mcpherson, and Others are among
its promoters. 1t is claimed to be an
open boycott of the combine" patent
inside houses. who it is alleged, have
been making the editors pay exhorbi-
tant prices for theirready prints with
out giving them the benefits of the
advertising. The organization is to
have paid up capital of s5,O 600 and
an authorized capital stock of SO, 600,
the stock divided into shares OF $40
each and one member limited to
100 shares. No one can become a
member Of the association or hold
stock unless he be a newspaper man
and doing business in the state. The
headquarters of the new union will
be in Topeka, with branch office
in the interior of the state. The
scheme has created much comment,
and the managers Of auxiliary houses
have called upon James B. Good, Of
the Sabetha Republican, the
sinstigator Of the movement, making
iovertures to him to abandon the
plan or permit them to secure stock.
He publishes their names in this
paper.
