ANOTHER OLD
SOLDIER DEAD,

J. NJ. McNay, editor of the Ga
lena Republican, died at his home
In Columbus on Sunday morning.
Mr.. McNay was i'll only a few
days, his ailment being heart and
stamach trouble.
Deceased was one of the good
citizens of the county and will be
sadly missed. Mr.. McNay came
to this county several years ago
from Phillips county, Kansas,
and engaged in the newspaper
business at Columbus, the Advo-
cate being the paper he run. He
made a success of the business
and retired from active work for
q time, selling out to the present
proprietor, w. A. Mitchell. But
the old germ of newspaper work
got busy and Mr.. McNay again
engaged in the business. this
time at Galena, in company with
his son, Arthur, and he was the
active editor of the paper up to
the time of his death.
Mr.. McNay was a member OF
the directory of the Interstate
Reunion Association, and his
counsel was always good. He
was secretary of the association,
and during the week of reunion
was adjutant.
Mr.. McNay was one OF the
youngest old soldiers in this coun-
try. He was a member of Co. B,
45th Iowa Volunteer Infantry
during the Civil war, joining
when a mere boy. He was born
July 20, 1s4s, and had he lived
until next July would have been
60 years of age.
Funeral services were held at
the home in Columbus on Tues
day afternoon of this week.
Mr.. McNay is survived by his
wife and two sons, one of whom,
Arthur was engaged in the
newspaper business with him at
Galena, and the other, Claude, is
district clerk of this county.

ANvTHER
STAIRWAY.

The calamity at Collinwood,
Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, last
week, in which ia school child
rem were burned to death, has
stirred the country as nothing
has stirred it since the Iroquois
disaster in Chicago a few years
ago. One hundred and seventy
four children were burned to
death like rats in trap, simply
because the exits of the building
were not adequate.
This fire has caused school
boards and parents to sit up and
take notice, and ask is our
school house absolutely safe?"
And in many instances the ans
wer has been in the negative. In
great many instances investiga-
ton has shown that large two
story school buildings have only
one stairway. What in the name
of heaven might happen where
such a condition exists?
Do you realize, dear people,
that the big public school build
| ing in Baxter Springs has only
one stairway? Have you stopped
to think what might happen if
that stairway should catch on
fire? If you have, don't you feel
that your children are not given
the protection they should have?
We understand that some time
ago the board of education had
figures made on another stairway,
but turned down all offers be-
cause the cost was greater than
they thought the district could
stand. Great heavans, must cost
be considered against human life
against the life of your neigh
boris child-against the life of
your child? Think what this
may mean?
We trust the board of educa-
ton will at once take steps to
remedy the existing evil, and that
another term of school will not
be held without adequate exits
from the school building. Cost
must not cut any figure. People
do not figure cost when protec-
ton is given, neither do they
care for expenses if they get val
ue received.
This agitation is going to be
kept up, not only in Baxter
Springs, but in other places, un-
til every precaution is taken to
take care of and protect human
life. And it should be agitated.
