The removal of the exprese office
from the city out to the depot is ex'
citing.a great deal of anger among
the people of Baxter Springs. OF
course the fact that a wagon makes
deliveries of express matter up
town to the business houses takes
a part of the curse off, but parties
who do not happen to live on the
main business street have a good
sized kick coming. If they have a
package to send out, they must Of
cousse be TO some Inconvenience in
getting II out TO the depot Office,
over mile from the business part
of town. The imposition of having
the Office 90 far from the business
part of town is simply outrageous.
We can not held but believe that
the Office will be put back in the
uptown district, where it belongs.
In the meantime the Wells-Fargo
people are being urged to estab-
lish an Office here. This company
should have an Office here in any
event, as il is next to impossible to
make q quick shipment of express

James Robey was arrested last
Friday in Joplin by Constable John
Joaes, on q warrant charging him
with highway robbery. A boy was
robbed of $40 at the depot here the
night before, while asleep, and Ro.
bey wac arrested for the offense.
He was brought to Baxter Springs
by Jones, arraigned before Justice
L. C. Jones, but as there seemed to
be no evidence on which a convic.
ton could reasonably be expected,
the robbery was dismissed, and
Robey was charged with stealing a
ride on railroad train, contrary to
the laws of the state of Kansas.
Robey pleaded guilty to this
charge and was sentenced to 10
days in the county bastile. That
will hold him until after the big
reunion, anyway.
