One Of the best officers the county
has ever had in the court house Is the
present superintendent Of public in
struCtion, Ralph V. Dyer. 1t Is a
credit to the county to have Its edu.

one department is Of SO much value
to the people and in nothing is 1t so
essential that there be q strict and
careful attention to duties. In the

best OF order and the records are
available to quick inspection Of all
and every record is perfect
More than that Mr.. Dyer has added
to the efficiency Of the schools by
suggestions Of value that have greatly
helped the management Of the coun'

TO FIGHT PACKERS MERGER.
Indepsndent Men Will Build . Packing
Plant In south Bt Joseph 70 Oppose
the Big Combine.

St. Joseph, Mo-, Oct. 13.-1ndepend-
ent packers will build and operate
large packing plant in South st.
Joseph to fight the big merger. A
representative Of an important in
dependent packers organization has
been in South st. Joseph gathering
data. He looked over a number OF
sites suitable for packing plants, ex-
amined the terminal facilities, the
capacity Of the stock yards and as
certained the cost Of operating .
plant here. The mans name Is with
held by the local men with whom
he conversed, for they are not in a
position to talk for publication.
They admit, however, that fight
between the merger and the inde-
pendent companies is imminent.
"This field has been examined by
those outside Of what is common
" called the combine" said local
pacling-house man. "If they build
plant here it will be equal to any
now In operation, according to infor-
nation have received. This will
mean the investment Of at least 49,
100000, for it takes fully that amount
to build and equip modern plant"

FIRE AT HASKELL INSTITUTE.


Law,ence, Kan, Oct. 13'-The large
new horse stables at the Haskell In
dian institute were entirely de-
stroyed by FIRE last night. superin-
tendent Pearls estimates the loss at
about $4,000. Twenty-Five horses
were burned. Two horses were
saved, but aside from that everything
was destroyed. There was a large
quantity of hay destroyed and about
1000 bushels Of oats. All the farm
ing implements used on the Haskell
farm were also burned. The barn
was built about year ago to replace
one that had been destroyed by fire.
The FIRE was probably caused by stu
dents smoking.

GETS BACK AGAIN.
An Old Case Il Decided Once More
saaas by SUI isme Cor-:. 49,


The case Of Thisler ct al VS., Mackey
was reversed by the supreme court
Saturday and decided in Thisler's
favor. A point in the case is the ap'
plication OF the statute of limitations
On its first trial Judge Humphrey de-
cided that the statute did not apply;
the appellate court with Judge Gar
yer a mem bsr reversed it and said it
did apply; it was tried before Judge
Moore who, In view OF the higher
courts decision, held the same way;
1t was appealed to the appellate court
where Judge Mahan had succeeded
Carver and this time the court said
the statute did not apply; it came
back before Judge Moore who' in
view Of the higher courts ruling, de-
cided the same way; it was appealed
again and the supreme court has de-
cided the same as the appellate court
on first'appesl, that the statute does
apply. Having been decided both
ways by the supreme court 1t would
seem to be about the right thing to
split the difference and call it quits.

Omaha, Ncb., Oct. 13.-Thomas L.
Wilson, fourth vice president Of the
International Association Of Ma
chinists, yesterday stated that the
strike Of shopmen now being conduct
ed by him against the Union Pacific
railroad may be carried to all Of the
Hartman lines. He said such re-
suit depended largely on the action
of the annual meeting OF the Union
Pacific, which will be held in Salt
Lake tomorrow. An Endorsement by
that meeting Of the position taken
by the Union Pacific officials on the
strike and the piece work system,
said he, will be considered sufficient
cause for carrying the fight to the
Hartman lines.
