A meeting occurred In the Odd
Fellows building on Tuesday that
may mean much In the future TO the
men who have grain TO sell. II was
made up Of grain men, shippers and
miilers from Kansas, kaasas City
and Texas, who had come together
in pursuance Of the circular issued
some weeks ago by Taylor Miller.
These gentlemen came here with the
svowed purpose OF formulating .
plan to work q reform In methods Of
weighing grain, and TO devise some
way ~ preventing shortages. Alieg.
ed shortages have made life burden
TO grain shippers for q long time;
and not only 80, bu, have also taken
away part Of the price the grower
should receive for his grain. There
IL no apparent good reason why
shortages should occur II cars were
kept In good repair, and carloads
weighed at stations from which
grain In shipped. This In fine IL the
plan proposed by the grain men to
correct the abuses of which COM
plant IL made. This has been ex-
plained In these columns heretofore.

Our readers will note the card Of
Doctor Phillips, In our local col
ums today, announcing his with
drawal from general practice, as he
will hereafter de.ote his time ex-
clusively to eye and ear work aud
operative surgery. The doctor has
been for years past drifting into this
work by special qualification. and
opportunity, having pursued the
special courses demanded annually
in Chicago, and last year,
spent most Of the summer In New
York City. This specialization Of
work will bring many to Sslins for
relief who have hitherto felt impell-
ed to go to Kansas City, Chicago or
Topeka, as DIR. Phillips reputation
as q successful surgnon, and his now
thorough qualification for this spec
ial work, will guarantee satisfactory
results.
