There is every probability that John
A. Goodell, formerly secretary OF the
Railroad Y. M. c. A. of this city. who
for less than @ year has been financial
secretary of the state work. will be-
come state secretary to succeed w. A.
Magee, state secretary, who died re-
Gently. While the question of Magees
successor has not yet been taken up
by the board. Goodell is such logical
successor that his appointment seems
practically assured.
During recent weeks, while Mr.. Ma
gee has been so sick as to prevent
him from being at his office, Mr.. Good
ell has assumed his duties.
Work Closely Allied.
Aside from his filing Magee's place
for weeks, all during the period that
Mr.. Goodell has been with the state
committee his work has been closely
allied and has dovetailed with the
work of Mr. Magee's Duties. In fact
part of the work that was assumed
by Mr.. Goodell was formerly handled
SiAA "a law oSSAStohS oILiSO. hCiS IiStJ
been no other man on the state COM
mittee who has been so closely In touch
with the headquarters office as Mr..
Goodell.
Would Make Excellent Secretary.
Mr.. Goodelrs adaptability makes him
admirably fitted for the office. which
is the highest in Y. NJ c. A. work in
the state. He has made an eminent
success Of his financing associations,
both in this city and at other points.
| where his duties as financial agent
have taken him.
The selection of secretary to sue
coed Mr.. Magee remains with the
state committee. OF which j. G. Ohm
stead. Of Des Moines. is chairman; F.
A. Mccormack, OF Sioux City, is vice
chairman. and c. E. Hum. OF Des
Moines. is secretary. Mr.. T. I. WATSON,
Of this city, is one Of the twenty one
members of this committee.

From the Kansas City Times
 The affic agreement between the Hartman lines and the Kan sas City Southern Railway Com pany is declared by railroad men to mean that the purchase of the latter is the ultimate desire oi the promoter.
 As one looks at railroad map it seems as If the Hartman lines now make three sides of square. The acquisition ot the Kansas City Southern would make the fourth side. Itis up to the Har- riman interes's to acquire the Kansas City Southern or build a line connecting the Union Pacific with the Southern Pacific. IL IS certain that one or the other thing will be done.
