ELECTRIC CARS WRECKED

Last Sunday evening as tram
of electric cars was speeding along
towards Atlantic City, N. j., rail
turned and the cars were hurled
from a trestle into deep water below.
The passengers shut up in the cars
had no show for their lives and 66
were killed or drowned,
Somebody is surely to blame for
this fearful accident and it is to be
hoped tina: thorough investigation
will develop who it is. These ac-
cidents in which SO many lose their
lives are becoming entirely too pre-
valent and some m cans of securing
the safety of the travelling public
should be devised.

sealed the doom of the saloon IN
Kansas City, and caused that city
to be selected for the final supreme
effort to determine whether the arm
of the State was long enough and
strong enough to enforce the laws
upon the statute book"
This testimony from C. w. Trick
EFT will have weight with Kansas
people, who desire to do the fair
and just thing by Governor Hoch,
The fight made upon him has been
bitter and extreme. He has been
the sole target for the guns of the
Democracy in this campaign, and
candidates and issues have been
forgotten. But in their appetite Tor
the spoils the Democrats have been
betrayed into wild exaggeratlops in
dealing with Governor Hoch, and
feeling has been growing through
the campaign that they have over
played their hands and overstepped
the bounds of decent politics.

SENATOR S. S. BENEDICT
DEAD

State Senator S. S. Benedict died
at his home near Benedict, las,
Monday, after short illness. He
had not been in robust health for
several years.
Mr.. Benedict was one of Wilson
County's most prominent citizens.
He has been prominent in her
affairs for a generation. He has
served a number of terms IN the
Kansas legislature and has always
been respected as an honest and
fearless Legislator. AT home he was
respected for his integrity and abil-
ity. He came to Kansas in an
early day and accumulated a fort
une in farming and raising fine
stock.
At his death he was state senator
for the district embracing Neosho
and Wilson counties. He will be
missed both in public and private
circles.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED

Every electriction in this country,
for several years, has been dreaming
dxeams and seeing visions. He has
oked forward to the day when the
farmer in the morning, instead CT
hitching his team to the wagon OF
wheat for market will simply bring
out a storage battery under his
arm and, setting it on the wagon
gear; move of.as by magic.
When he goes outin the field to
cultivate his corn he will simply slip
small battery in his pocket which
he will attach to the cultivator by q
clamp aud mounting the imple-
ment will get over IS or 20 acres
day without difficulty.
Eddison now announces that he
has perfected the battery. erected
the factory buildings and that
by spring he will be shipping
out the batteries. He says in IS
years from now horse will be

fifty cents to see one. = -.

men who urged me for the sake of
the city not to drive out the joints, "
says Mr.. Trickett, "have been con-
vinced of results
That Mr.. Trickett's campaign has
been an extraordinary success is
not disputed, but an effort has been
made to deprive Governor Hoch OF
any share of credit. Mr.. Trickett
is the only man who can speak with
authority on that question, and al
Olathe he placed the credit with
Governor Hoch and General Cole
man.
The Governor did not stop wit h
writing to sheriffs and county at
torneys or inviting them In to con-
fer with him. He began a cam
paign for forcement of the pro-
hlbitory law in Cherokee county,
which was notoriously overrun with
saloons. His special attorney, R.
w. Blue, failed and resigned.
The Governor appointed with
Attorney General Coleman's co
operation, Judge Carver in Shaw
nee county, and Judge Carver failed
and resigned. Mr.. Trickett ex
planned that the Governor did not
make a special drive at Kansas City,
discriminating against, or in favor
of, that place. His action in ap-
pointing Mr.. Trickett was taken be-
cause of the closing of Sunday sa-
looms across the line in Missouri.

CORN


Corn is tbe staple product in this
country. 1t is theproduct of the soil
on which we most rely. 1t is a cur
rent saying that when we have a
corn crop, everybody has money.
Every farmer raises corn, some
more some less. Some raise 80 or
90 bushels to the acre or more
while others raise 20 or 80 or even
less.
There is difference in soils and
a difference in modes of culture.
Some men are careful and pains
taking in whatever they undertake
and others are careless and indiffer
ent. With the same ground and
the same opportunities some men
produce twice as much as others.
The careless and Indifferent farmer
who goes to his corn crib and
shovels up his seed indifferently,
poorly prepares his ground slovenly
plants it and cultiva.es it like he
was ditching the ground for irriga
ton must be content with half the
yield received by his neighbor who
carefully and Systematically does all
things.
1t has been thoroughly demon
strated that the average yield of
corn can be more than doubled by
care in seed selection, planting and
culture. If the, e,farmer can double
his yield by proper methods and
care, thereby making his ground
worth hundred per cent more to
him, he has greatly increased his
wealth.
Prof. Holden of Iowa, the great
authority on corn, is said to have
Increased the value of the corn
yield in Iowa $50, 900, 900 in one
year, by instructlng the farmers IN
proper methods. If such a thing
can be done in Iowa it can be done
in Kansas, if our farmers will only
adopt similar methods.
Prof. Holden has recently put out
a book that explains fully the me-
thods he has been teaching 10 the
Iowa farmer. The book is very
clear and concise and profusely il
lustrated and any one can read and
under stand his suggestions.
Any farmer who will secure this
book, read it carefully and adopt
the methods of corA production
suggested In it will be repaid thou
sand fold every year. 1t is not
mere matter of theory and specula-
ton but a demonstrated fact that
the corn yield can be doubled and
at very little extra labor.
Every corn raiser should have
this book and have it now. The
instruction begins with the selection
of the seed and now is the time to
to do that. We have made a club
bing arrangement by which we are
enabled to furnised this book to all |
subscribers to THE TIMES prac-
tically free. 1t will be worth thou
sands of dollars to this community
Il the farmers will but read it and
adopt its instruction.
