Government income and expenditure
are now running closely together, a
highly desirable condition Although
an individual likes an excess of in
come over expenditures. it is not a
wholesome condition for the govern
ment, since il means taking more from
the people in taxation than is neces-

the difference has been made up this
year. in spite OF slightly increased out
lays, by large customs receipts.

The Ger1nan students.

Drunkenness has Of late been charg-
ed in England against the students of
the University of oxford. OF this
charge, Percival Farrar, an Oxford
man, said in Detroit:
Now and then young men drink too
much at Oxford but to accuse them
generally of drunkenness is quite un-
pardonabIe and false.
such an accusation is to my mind
absurd. like the accusation of 1dleness
made against the students of the great
German universities.
Attendance at lectures is not COM
pulsOry In Germany, and there are all
sorts of yarns about the students idle
ness. They say that a young man in

It is quite unusual to be able to buy

ON COAL STRIKE
If an Agreement Is Not Reached Mines
VIII Be Operated.

James E. Hurley, general manager of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and
one of the trustees in charge of the
operation of the mines belonging to the
Devlin estate, was in Kansas City yes
terday attending the conferences be-
tween the members of the executive
committee of the Southwestern Coal
Operators association and the repre-
sentatives of the miners. He returned
from Kansas City last night and said
today that it was the hope of all con-
cerned in the conference which was
continued today that they would be
able to agree upon terms for the set
tIing of the coal strike. He added that
as an agreement was not reached it was
probable that the operators would be-
gin to work the mines with such men
as they could secure regardless of the
strike.
'.As far as the Santa Fe is concern

ply is holding out well. We have plenty
on hand to operate our trains and shops

yet. all Of the fast passenger trains be
tween Topeka and Kansas City viii be
sun on a schedule of one hour and thirty
minutes The present schedule of these
Grains takes from two hours to two hours
and ten minutes. This faster time is made
possible by the completion of the Union
Pacific double track between Topeka and
Kansas City, which is used by the Rock
Island.
As soon as this track becomes settled

because under its traffic arrangement with

TAYLOR WILL TRY.
Bring an Action of Own Against Mis-
souri, Pacific.

The attempt of the board of railroad
commissioners to .shoot over Carr
Taylor's head with reference to the pas
senger service muddle on the Missouri
Pacific branch from the east line of
the state to Madison, failed Of results.
Mr. Taylor today is at work preparing
q proceeding in mandamus against the
Missouri Pacific on the matter which he
viii file either tonight or Wednesday
morning.
Considerable agitation has been going
on down at Mound City, Kincaid, Leroy,
Gridley and Madison, the affected towns.
for some time TO get a passenger train
over the Missouri Pacific line which
passes through them. The board of
railroad commissioners made an order
demanding that the Missouri Pacific in
stall a passenger service at least once
daily.
The road has not complied with the
matter. The other day Carr Taylor was
at Mound City, and while there gave
out an interview in which he stated that
he would bring mandamus proceedings
TO enforce the Missouri Pacific to come
to time.
When the board Of railroad commits
sioners heard of Taylor's intention, they
went to Attorney General Coleman and
asked him to bring the proceedings,
absolutely going right over the head Of
the man especially appointed and laid
to 1oo,z after just such business. But
Mr. Coleman nd not touch upon TIC
matter evidently, for Mr.. Taylor is go
ing right ahead and will either tonight
or tomorrow morning file proceedings
against the road before the supreme
court.
The road in question runs from But
Ter, No, as the junction point to Madi-
son. Kansas. It passes through Groom,
Bluemount, Kincaid. Leroy. Gridley ami
Madison These are the principal towns
along the route At the present time
they have no passenger service at al.
Mr.. Taylor will embody in his proceed
ings a request that the supreme court
order the installation of a daily passen-
ger train, going both ways. That is
what the people in that territory want.
