MILL IS
READY TO GRIND

As soon as electrical connections
are made with the Garden City Mill
ing company, the new alfalfa feed
mill near the o. r. & N. freight de-
pot, which has just been completed in
this city, work of grinding the vari-
Gus products into feed will be COM
menced All construction work on this
plant has been finished and there now
remains only the power connections to
be made. This has in part been done
and an inspection of the wires will
soon be made.
The success attending the other mill
located here is enough guarantee that
the new one will also be a paying
proposition. No money has been spared
to make the venture a good one and
the work in the future will be con-
Quoted under the guidance of experts.
The building in which the mill is To-
Gated is complete in every particular
and a large sum of money has been
expected to make it so. Nearly all Of
the stock in this proposition is con-
trolled by local people thereby keep
ing the proceeds that result from it
in this locality.

been credibly reported as saying: I'm
der the new tariff law Europe will soon
be stripped of all her great art treas
ures. The beginning of their whole
sale purchase by Americans has al
ready begun"
In the eyes of Europe Mr.. ]. P. Nor
gan is the head devil in the sacreligious
pillage of art treasures. Much Of his
dearly bought and richly paid for booty
is housed abroad, but the hope is rea
sonable that it will be enshrined in
this country. An Italian literary jour-
nal recently contained an article on the
Medici, and the title of the story was
1.-The Florentine Morgans of the Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth Centuries
While Mr.. Morgan is doing perhaps
more for the collection and concentra
ton Of old art works than any other
man, he has many rich and apprecia-
tive American co-laborers in this field
of enterprise.

The first thing taken up was the inn
pressing on the audience of the neces-
sity of a systematic campaign. After
this, it is understood, several speakers,
among them Rev. Marvin and Mr.. Cox,
were heard and several others pres
ent expressed themselves.
The meeting last night resembled
more of a jubilee for a time than any
thing else. The saloon men were
given the laugh by many present, not
in open meeting however, for the
bluff they ran in an interview IN
which Alfred Bachtold, stated the
names on the petition would be attack
ed. This the saloon men failed to do
and the ''Drys" consider it a complete
victory.
After discussion along these lines
the body got down to business. The
work was gone over carefully and a
systematic plan of campaign mapped
out Reports from the different COM
mittees and certain men, who do not
desire to be publicly connected with
the movement. were. assigned duties,
all to report at a future meeting.
The first literature to be received by
the "Drys' was received yesterday and
opened last night. 1t consists of much
printed matter turned out by the Kan
sas State Temperance Union, S22-S24
Kansas avenue, Topeka, Kan. The
principal literature received was a 16
page leaflet entitled 1.-The Cleansing of
a Large City" 1t contains the speech
of Assistant Attorney General G.. w.
Trickett, made at Winfield, Kansas,
ChautauQua. After the meeting in the
auditorium there was a committee
meeting at which plans that are not
yet ripe for even some of the COM
mitteeS to know of, were gone over
and discussed.
The wet forces today sprung their
first surprise by the circulation of
small booklet, entitled valuable Infor-
nation which contains, in addition to
other items, the names of the people
who signed the petitions calling for
special election for December 20. The
booklets have been generally circulated
throughout the business section today,
being sold at 25 cents a copy.

GOOD MORNING.

A CHEEKY Good Morning often
sends a ray of sunshine streaming
through the innermOst recesses of
household. resting there all the live
long day, and again follows hasten

Good Night often sOothes many
troubled mind to rest, and heals the
wounds which have either come anew
to struggling soul or been re-Opened
by the harsh words or deeds that are
spoken or done in season or out of sea-
son, as the daily battle of our life
progresses.
Good morning." with a heartfelt
wish for blessings in the tone of its
utterance, cheers the heart of faint
and fearful ones, and softens many a
hard spot that has place by Inheritance
or cultivation, in the breasts of hui
mainly The lovelight that beams from
the eye when one is greeted by
such words as Good night lights
many a weary spirit to a chamber or
rest and peace and to a land of pleas
ant dreams.
The home where Good morning
and good night are carefully said by
one to another. are the homes of the
world where good thoughts are gene
rated. where good deeds have place,
and from whence go out good lives
Then don't forget to say, 'Good
morning; say it to parents, to child
rem. brothers, sisters, schoolmates,
teachers. friends and to all you meet,
and say it cheerfully and with a smile.
1t will do you good and do your friends
good. 1t will cheer the discouraged
rest the tired ones, and somehow make
the wheel of life move more smoothly.
A Good Morning heartily spoken
makes hope fresher and brighter and
seems really to make the morning
good, and to be a prophesy of a good
day to come after it.

AMERICA THE ART CENTER

Is the United States to become the
worlds art center? In some quarters
the answer is yes. Several of the gov
ernments of Europe have sought to
hinder the export to America of works
of antique art. ''Despoliation of the
galleries of Europe by Americans" is
sentence that has sometimes been used.
An unjust sheer is sometimes hidden
in the words. If americans have a
sense of the beautiful so strongly de-
Veloped that they prefer great pic
lures and statues to clinking dollars,
and if some Europeans are so sordid
or impecunious as to prefer money to
art treasures. there should be no COM
plant against us from the other side

was taken after the written opinion of
City Attorney J. c. Hurspool, bearing
upon the question, had been read by
the city clerk, T. D. s. Hart. The opin-
ion follows:
I'm response to your request rela
tive to the opening of First street
from Main to Rose streets, we would
say that under the procedure already
instituted for the opening of said street,
the only matter to be taken up at
the present time is the levy of assess
ment and the collection of the same to
pay for the land taken for such street.
An ordinance has already been passed,
creating such district, and a decree
has been entered determining the
amount of damages to which each
owner of land is entitled. The next
step is the assessment of the dam
ages against the property included in
the assessment district; when this IS
done and the land opened for street
the matter of bridging it can be taken
up as an entirely different matter and
a new assessment district can be
created to pay therefore.
Under the city charter Section 49,
an assessment district may be created
to pay for the construction of bridges,
and as the construction of bridges
does not come within the ordinary
meaning of the Improvement of streets
the assessment district need not be
limited to the property abutting on
such street, but may include all prop
erty benefited thereby, to be determ-
ined by the council; and if the city
deems the construction of a bridge
matter of general benefit to the city, it
may assume the payment of a portion
of the costs"

Agents for the Census.

WASHINGTON, Nov. By order
Of Census Bureau Director Durand,
Durand, examinations are being held
throughout the United States today for
special agents for the census. The ap-
plicants in tOday's tests have no con-
nection with the census enumerators.
The duties of the special agents will

partments of manufacturing or other
business establishments.

OPEN
UP FIRST

After nearly four years of red tape
delay and legal technicalities, First
street from Main TO Rose is now in a
fair way to be open and bridge built
over Mill creek, the city council hav-
ing voted unanimously last night on
the motion of Councilman c. H. Cum
mings that the assessment plan al
ready started, be followed up with the
view to opening the street. More than
three years ago the first steps for this
improvement were taken, an assess
ment district created, and an ordinance
drawn up One thing or another has
since that time held up the proceed
ings, until recently when DR.. w. NJ
Glove, whose land is necessary to
open First street, asked the city
fathers to either make the improve
ment or return to him the land which
he decided to the city for street pur-
poses.

Building Ready Soon.

A most significant change will oc-
cur when the Northwestern Corpora
ton moves from its present location on
Alder street to the new quarters at
will be completed about November 20.
On this same day, the new building
will be occupied by both freight and
passenger departments and all bust
ness in the future will be conducted
from this place.
This structure when completed VIII
be one of the finest terminal buildings
in the northwest and nothing will be
left undone to make it perfect in
every particular. Every modern i'm
provement will be inaugurated which
has proven it's worth and among the
change telephone system, this making
the second in the city. There will be a
waiting room, a ladies rest room and
comfortable quarters for everyone.
The front portion of the lower floor
will be utilized as such while the rear
part of the building will be used as
the freight department. Up stairs the
offices Of the corporation will be ar
ranged.
The new power plant upon which
work is now being carried on. will be
completed and in operation by De-
cember 20 and this it is claimed will
be the finest of it's kind in this sec.
ton of the country. These two new
buildings are recognized as a great
adjunct to the Northwestern Corpora
ton and tend to uphold in every par
ticular this citys boast that it is a
coming one.
One change that will go into effect
when the new quarters are occupied
pertains to the interurban cars. These
will stop at the corner of Sixth and
Main and all passengers must board it
at that point In this manner, the
company can save II minutes and
running on the heavy schedule that
it now carries, this is almost COM
pulsory.
