E ". Albright, who has lived on his
large farm IN Llauos township in this
county for many years-a man Of about
40 years of age-has rented his fine
ranch for a while to T. ]. Wilson, and
in the meantime Mr.. Albright, who is
quite well to do, viii move his family to
Manhattan. Kan, where he will take
up the work in the farmers short
course IN the Kansas Agricultural col
lege. when I get through, Mr..
Albright says, Il viii be back to
Sherman county, doing business at the
old stand"
The short course IN agriculture,
which our enterPrising citizen viii take
advantage of. will have to do with
methods of agriculture, darying, breed
ing, farm management crop PrOduc-
ton, grain jud ging, and the like.
This is the first instance in the history
of the county, in the knowledge Of the
writer, of an actual farmer going to the
expense and taking the time to be a
scientific farmer" Mr.. Albright has
been a success at agriculture and at
stock raising, and no doubt remains
that he will succeed more than ever
after he returns. Failures in Sherman
county have been due more than any
thing else to lack of knowledge of sci
enti6c agriculture that has been worked
out for the west.
The future success of agriculture IN
Sherman county will be in proportion
to the number of such men we have
like Mr.. Albright, OF to the diffusion of
methods of farming appropriate to
climatic conditions.

EoR NoRTH ANo soUTH LIE.
Rock Island Nay Build From Bslievins
to Anthony for Canal


More north and south railroad talk
is IN the air, and this time the Rock
Island is figured to have planned the
construction of a line from BelleviIle,
Kan, south to Anthony, Kan. making
close connection with the Choctaw
northern division of the Rock Island
system. The coming of the Panama
canal is responsible for these plans, and
by the time the canal Is completed the
Rock Island will be ready to discharge
a vast amount of freight from the net
work of lines at Gulf ports.
This plan of the Rock Island Is cred
tied as coming from one of the general
passenger agents, who said that the
new line would start at Belleville and
extend south through Beloit and some
other towns TO Hutchinson, and then
on to Anthony, where connection would
be made with the northern Choctaw
division. He said that this work would
be done this coming year and that the
idea was to get better connection with
the Nebraska and Colorado lines and
the Texas and the southern divisions.
With the Frisco line in connection
there would also be a through line from
the Rock Islands northern line to
Wichita and on to the south and east
over the tracks Of the latter company
and those Of the Frisco.
This important line would open a
new field for the road in many ways.
1t would make direct connection with
the ChOctaw division at Anthony and a
through line all the way through Okla
homa, through LawtOn, connecting
with the present Texas line of the Rock
Island at Waurilla, a few miles this side
Of the Teas cfata Line

Prom Literary Digest
The wrangle over government regula-
ton of railway rates lis something in
which, though he may not at first real
ize it, says the Providence Journal,
''the ordinary man has a livelier person
al interest than in almost anything else
which is likely to come up for consider
alton before the 4th Of March. 4" Some
think the personal interest of this man
should be due to the fact that the
railroads are combining into a gigantic
trust that viii have the entire business
of the country at its mercy others ex-
claim that the railroads are the arteries
of trade, carrying life and prosperity to
every city and hamlet, and aver that
the present movement to regulate them
viii endanger our prosperity.
The railroads employ more labor,
give life and occupation to more indus
tries, contribute more to general indus
trial progress, than does any other de-
Partment of business, declares the
Commercial and Financial Chronicle
New York;, and the movement TO en-
power the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to fix railway rates will endan-
ger the sOlvency of our railway systems,
and hence, among other disastrous re-
suits, interfere with present business
activity The Brooklyn Eagle, too,
explains that, far from having any de-
sire to loot the shippers, the railroads
realize that heir interests are identical
with those of their patrons, that what
damages one Injuries both, that their
welfare is in common"
This picture of peace and good will,
however, is not so apparent TO some
others. The governors of Iowa, Mime
sofa, and Wisconsin have united in an
appeal to the president to urge restrict
i've legislation. Governor Cummings,
of Iowa, AYERS that the railroads, by
reight-rate favoritism, compel the Iowa
farmers to send their cattle and hogs to
Chicago and Kansas City for packing,
thus preventing the development of this
industry in Iowa, and encourage the
cattle-men to send their stock to Ne
braska, rather than Iowa, for feeding.
The Atlanta Journal objects to the
railroads possession of the enormous
power to tax commerce without control
by the government, as does also the
Chicago Tribune. The Interstate Com
merce Law convention, which met in
st. Louis few weeks ago, sent a petit
ton to congress asking that the rail-
roads be curbed. Several bills already
before congress provide for the granting
of more power to the Interstate Com
merce Commission. and some believe
that one of them may pass at the pres
ent session. The Chicago Tribune says
that the railroads are ''artful dodgers, -
and goes on to describe some of their
lodges thus:
''There are several methods employed
by the railroads to evade the law
against rebates. One is the industrial
railway, another is the private car line,
third IS the fictitious damage claim.

That the four land Offices in Kansas,
with their respective districts, would
probably be reduced to three and the
territory redistricted, was printed in
this paper last week. Last Thursday,
December 8. a Washington telegram to
the Topeka Capital said:
''The president has directed that the
four land Offices in Kansas be consolida-
ted into three Offices. This action will
result in the abandonment of the Office
at WakeeneY. According to the plan of
consolidation, the counties of Smith,
Osborn and parts Of Jewell and Mitch

counties Of Rice, Reno, Kingman, Har-

Perhaps the Best Theatrical Troupe That
Ever Played in GoOdland-


The Keller Stock company's three
nights at the oOera house in 1.-The Gid

David Harum," were received with
something like open arms by the good
audiences. The work of Carl Caldwell
and A N. Keller was good art, but
when we say that of them we are met
with the difficulty, what about the rest?
There is the injustice. You can not
praise one to the exclusion of the rest,
for all are good. They know what they
are at, and the versatility Of Carl Cald-
well, Alma Viva Keller and Jane Dor
sey almost puts one out of belief that
they could do it so well.
David Harum was the last and most
absorbing play. It was magnihcently
presented, and Harum's story to Widow
Cullum was tender, and his gift, great.

and still exists a feeling of financial Sc
curity that is absolutely essential TO
prosperity. (Applause.)
During the Democratic administration
at q time when that party had full con-
troll of our republics policies and inter-
ests it was estimated by Samuel Com
pers, president of the Federation of La
Dor, that there were more than three
million men in the United States idle and
looking for work. But this lasted for
a short time only. for soon following the
advent of President Mckinley to office
and manufactur began TO
thrive. In the last seven and one-halr
years we nave added more wealth to our
foreign than was added In the
hundred and seven years preceding that
time. And the monetary standing OF our
knows neither silver nor paper.
The Democrats nave declared that pro-
lection is robbery and propose to revise
1t. They say that If they are placed In
command they will wipe out this protec-
ton for American capital and labor.

turbed and mining operations suspended
in consequence. The rapid increase In
the monthly output of the Transvaai goid
mines and the steadily increasing pro-
duction of gold in Alaska, the United
States and Australia at that period fur
nished good ground for the belief that in
the course of half a dozen years or so
the world would be producing the pre-
cious metal at the rate of 4O0, 900, 900 u
year.
South Africa is gradually regaining the
status as a gold-producer which it pos
sessed before the opening of the Boer
war. Last year it yielded nearly SOS, Ooo.-
900, almost all of which was extracted
from the Rand mines. Every months
reports of the output of these properties
this year shows a steady increase. II
would not be surprising, therefore, IL the
during 1904 should equal that of 1898,
when it reached $50, 425, 900. Moreover, the
elaborate plans for the operation of the
Rand properties which are being deve;-
oped by their owners promises at a
comparatively early date to bring their
total output to SIPS, 10, 900 a year, whica
is regarded as their probable maximum.
The sf0O, 900. 900 mark for the worlds gold
production is, consequently. practically
