Scott last week. ]. c. Naylor, OF
Baxter Springs represented Chero-
kee county and was elected one of
the vice presidents. The resolu-

The sense of the meeting was that
the good roads movement now be-
fore the people of this country is of
paramount importance to the de.
velopment of the resources of the
nation, social. commercial, agricul-
tural and mechanical and believing
that il 10 of greater Importance to
the people in this community than
any other question before them and
that the so-called "Brownlow Bill''
now pending before congress,
points out a solution to this most
important question. Strong reso-
lutions were adopted.
We are glad our friend Naylor
has taken so active an interest in
the good roads movement. Naylor
is an enthusiastic worker in any
thing he tackles, and can make
himself felt in this good roads
movement.

Here is the first fish story of the
season, and it comes from the Will
son County Sun. whose reputation
for truthfulness and varacity has
heretofore remained unquestioned.
We would suggest to the editor of
the Sun that when he catches one
of those oil-saturated fish, to push
a lamp wick down it's outlet and
use il as taper to light his way to
the paths of truthfulness: while
out rusticating upon the banks of
Chetopa creek the other day, the
writer of this made an important
discovery-two of them, in fact.
One lie that the fish will suck crude
petroleum down in preference TO
any other kind of food. The other
10 that the oily taste which spoils
90 many fish in this vicinity, is not
acquired by absorption from con-
tact with the refinery drain south
of town. 1t has been supposed that
the acid from the refinery was re-
sponsible for the bad taste of the
flesh of the fish, because oil always
floats on the water and would not
affect the fish il they would let II
alone. But the taste does not come
from the acid. The fish comes
to the top of the water, and the
banks and eat the oil. Up on Che
topa creek, where lot of oil ran in
to the creek from a break in the line
from Chanute aud Thayer, fish may
be seen lined up along the shore
where a little oil has collected;hun.
dreds of them, and all sizes and
all kinds, sucking the oil down as
If their lives depended upon it. As
most of the streams are more OF
less covered with oil in this vicin'
ity, il is hard to find fish that have
not become contaminated. The wa
ter under the oil Seems just as pure
as il ever was, because oil and wa
ter dees not mix: but the fish have
formed the oil habit beyond re-
form"

The supreme court of Kansas
handed down a decision Saturday
affirming the verdict rendered
against William Wake on the
charge of statutory rape upon the
person of Minnie Harrington and
the commitment will now become
effective. 1t is a pitiable spectacle
that an aged man should be thus
disgraced, but the real sympathy
will go to the family, especially the
wife who has been so steadfast in
her loyalty to her husband under
grave charges. The sentence will
no doubt be much shortened by the
good character of Mr.. Wake here
tofore, and by the powers allowed
