THE REAL STAGE DRIVER

A writer in the Mirror" says
he once took stage ride, and he
closes by saying: How these men
(the stage drivers) manage to keep
unfailing guard over horses, vehicle
and diversified, jumbled cargo, to
conquer the recurrent dangers and
difficulties of the road, ana at the
same time to satisfy the mostly idle
curiosity of garrulous passen gers,
is an accomplishment that utterly
eludes my understanding" The
reason is plain enough the eyes of
the Mirror writer are dimmea or
he would understand that the real
stage driver is born to his calling,
as much so as was ever an artist in
some other line of ART. He can
exactly calculate distances, he
understands perfectly the charac-
ter of horse, and knows by in
stinct the horse that has no
character He knows all about
what he is carrying and where
each piece must be delivered.
Moreover, the horses know the
driver, and, if he is a real driver,
the horses know it and learn to
take half the responsibility off his
hands. The eastern papers often
bring us illustrations of coaching
parties. We have longed for years
to- see one real stage driver with six
mustangs, give an exhibition of
real stage-driving to those people.
All six horses on a dead run turn
ing on run, and stopping at just
the right spot, climbing a grade,
going down a crooked grade on
the run, horses, coach and driver all
in accord. AS to talk with passen-
gers, that does not disturb them,
for it takes no effort of the brain,
does not divert the eyes, or the
attention, for one instant, for the
driver learns quickly to understand
human nature and just how much
attention is required for each one.
"Mr. Monk, did you bring my
trunk up today?" said lady at
Glenbrook, Lake Tahoe. mo, not
today will bring half of it up to-
morrow" was the reply. Half
of it? What do you mean by half
of it," was the next question.
"It's too big to bring all at once
they were saving it in two when
came away, and said they would
have half of it ready tomorrow"
Saving it in two!" screamed the
lady. why, all my party dresses
are in that trunk and they will be
ruined" 'They will be all the
better" said Monk. "You know
you ladies don't more than half
dress anyway when you go to a
party" And all this with i'm
perturbable face and look of
candor that was APPALLING.
What the Mirror writer wonder
ed at was nothing. He should be
with one of them in an inky black
night, with six half-breed horses,
on steep, crooked and icy trail.
Then he would see some r cal driv-

There are several dealers in auto
mobiles in the city, all of whom are
directly interested in the betterment of
the roads in Blue Earth county, and
it is expected that they will be of
material help to the work of getting
up the good roads event for the 10Th.
1t may be that they will come forward
with some special feature for the day,
1t is believed that they have some
plans that will be to their credit in the
round up. 1t is more than likely that
the next legislature will be authorized
to pass laws which will result in state
wide assistance to the cause of good
roads, and there are none more bene-
ficially interested in this than the deal
ers in automobiles and the owners of
such conveyanees. They are all show
ing Il good spirit toward the move
ment to put AIankato and vicinity in
the foreground in this work 1t will
not be long until the policy of perma.
nent roadnaking in Minnesota viii be
something more than dream, and
such events as is now being worked
up here will forward the time.
| The central committee wants it given
out to all that there will be nothing
of a political nature in any of then
plans. The speeches to be delivered
will be kept free from such things
and will be devoted to nothing but tn,
question of roadmaking. One OF the
things needed to be known to get
every one interested in roads is the
! Importance of transportation i'll every
| form to our business and agriculture
prosperity, and it is expected that
Louis II. Hill, president of the Grea;
Northern road, will have something in
! structive to say along that line, while
Mr.. King, the other prominent speak
CT expected, will talk along the lines OF
practical roadmaking. Means of easy
transportation must directly increase
! the profits of the farm, and that is
| why the farmer is Interested.
! In an early issue of our paper W,
will give list of barns that the COM
mittee have arranged for in the city
where farmers and other visitors ca,
put up their teams free of charge
and shall also give the halls and Other
locations for amusement chosen fol
that day and evening. 1t is intended
to make arrangements for the housing
of automobiles on that day also, free
of charge.
