For It Because It's Rlqht

Editor Headley, of the Gaylord
Herald, who is always on the afirma-
tive on a proposition that will be a
benefit to Smith county tells it in this
way: 1.-The Herald has favored the
high school proposition in this county
because it believes that a county high
school will be benefit to all the peo-
pie in the county. The location at the
county seat, in the center of the coun-
ty, is more convent for all concerned
than it would be at any other point.
Smith Center has shown disposition
to assume he full share of the expense
to be incurred in establishing the
school and will doubtless do more
than at present indicated. We regret
to note the opposition that has de-
veloped since the proposition came
before the people of the county and
trust that it as apparent than real and
and will disappear as the question is
thoroughly discussed and understood.
One thing is certain, and that is if we
let the present opportunity go by it
win bea long time before we get
another"

A PIucky School r1a,am.

When Dola Elliott arrived at her
school, Monday morning, she found
the premises in the hands of five
negro tramp minstrels. After some
parley she induced them to leave.
Just before school time. she found that
the soap was missing and inferred that
the darkfes had taken it along with
them. AS soap is as great necessity
as good text books in well regulated
school there was nothing for her to do
but recover it. So jumping upon her
horse she rode until she overlook
them and demanded the return of the
article. At first they denied all
knowledge of the theft, but tirmness
finally won and Miss Elliott got back
her soap.-Hiawatha Democrat.

Are You a BuffaIo2

The craze has reached this city in
the last few days, and now every par
ticularly brilliant young man one
meets on the street propounds the
above question with the regularity
and precision of clockwork.
There does not seem to be any def
mite answer to the question, but there
is something in the way the answer is
given that leaves not a shadow of
doubt as to whether or not the one
questioned has been buffaloed. The
eleven cents initiation fee and 'sno
change" together with drinks on the
initiate who thoughtlessly uses his
right hand to lift his glass and one or
two other similar performances make
up the initiation ceremonies. The
order has increased from member
ship of 2, to membership of over
600, 900 in the last three weeks,

John Farrell, of Wamego, KanS.,

on his way up to Prairie View to look

latter have been some years deceased,
the complete settlement of the estate
has never been made.

Guiding the letters last Friday euening.
The through early morning flyers that

falling Thursday night and continued
