which are now blossoming forth into

a rich deep red. and the combination
presents a spectacle that is most beau
tIful.

In MemOrlam GOOD BY, Good By.

Some priceless pictures kept apart,
Shut in from every curious eye.
Kind memory stores within the heart
To light the shadow Of "goodby"
And often in the quiet days,
When sad and lonely, with a sigh
We lift the veil and iondly gaze
On faces hid by brief 'soOdby"
So when THE little cloud shall fall'''
To hide our loved ones, called on high
Wen know they are not lost at all
But smiling throu Oh their last ''goodby"
Our beloved friend, Mrs. G. R.
Holman, has been called from
earth to the rest and reward of
the heavenly lend. We bow in
submission to the will of our
Father in heaven, who is too wise
to err and too good to be unkind,
saying. Thy will be DONE"
We will hold in living remem-
brance her smiling face. ever
ready sympathy and helping
hand. She was a noble type of
womanhood and attained a high
standard in life. Patient in
suffering cheerful in hope,
grounded in strong faith of
christian work. She leaves an
inspiring record and a precious
memory. Her removal from our
society leaves a vacancy and a
shadow that we will deeply realize
as the passing days 90 by.
We extend to her husband and
friends in this sad hour our
Christian sympathy and the time
is brief until they shall meet
again. Can we not hear the Lord
say She is not dead, but
sleepeth."

Every farmer, especially ip
Central and Western Kansas, is or
should be deeply interested in the
result of the coming state election
because of its bearing on the
question of railroad transporta,
ton and freight rates. In this
connection we want to call special
aention to the open letter to Mr..
Ripley, by Mr.. J. W. Wright, of
Mcpherson. published elsewhere
in this papre. The democrats of
Kansas have nominated a ticket
composed of men pledged to
bring about reform in railroad
matters. The republicans have a
ticket whose nominees were die
tated by railroad influences. The
thinking farmer and business man
will know where his friends are
in this campaign.

CURRENT RETURNS TO FOOT BALL
Made His First Appearance on
Field Friday.

Saturdays Minneapolis Tribune has
the following account of the return Of
Earl Current to the University: Min
nesota football stock wentup by jumps
yesterday for Capt. Earl Current made
his appearance for the first time on the
field and took an active part in the
gridiron exercises. Bobby Marshall
was also out for the first time, and
both backfeld and line gained strength
from the addition Of these two men to
the squad.
Current has been unable to get to
school until this time, but from now on
will spend all his spare time with the
football men. He was disappointed
last year when his team went down to
defeat before Wisconsin, and hopes
this season to pilot the Gaphers to the
1906 championship. From the present
outlook it seems that he is in a fair
way to realize his hopes, for the Min
nesota eleven is looking stronger and
stronger as each day goes by.
Current will weigh about the same
as last year and will not take long to
get into condition. He is husky and
fast and should have the best. season
OF his career on the gridiron.
