The Way Of Life.

1t is being said of an elderly man In
business In Atchison: "He can't stand
punishment as he formerly could.
And there is punishment to be en-
dured in making a living; don't forget
1t. Look over your own experience,
and you will detect punishment every
hour of the day. If it isn't at home, 1t
is on the street car or on the road.
How many ways there are to punish
a man who tries his best to get along
and behave himself And after man
gets old it is more evident every year
that the poor fellow can't stand pun
ishment as he could when he was
younger.-Atchison Globe.

POWERS THAT Be.
Square Deal Leaders Meet and
Talk 1t Over.
Trying to Agree on Programme
for Immediate Future.

There was a conference of the pow
ers in the governors office today.
Seated at the round table were, Sena-
tors Clad Hamilton of Shawnee and
Stannard of Lyon, Dick Hopkins of
Garden City, acknowledgements
elect. William Allen White of Emporia,
Joe Mercer, representative from Chase
county, Attorney General Jackson and
others. The nature of the conference
was kept secret by the conferees. but
some details have leaked out.
Mr.. White was heard to declare
that majority favored the incorpora-
ton into the constitution of the
Stubs receipt for saltrising bread.
1t was reported on the other hand
that the session was called to present
a medal to Mr. White for GOODNESS and
evening. The dwelling of Mr.. Whites
mother caught fire and Mr.. White sub
dued the flames with a patent fire eX-
tinguisher.
A more serious report from the
seats of the mighty had it that the
conference had to do with an admin
istration choice for speaker of the
next house of representatives. Robert
Stone of Shawnee is the choice of
White and Bristow for the place, but
he is not the Stubs choice. Maybe he
is now that the conference is over.
Either Matson of Sedgwick or Judge
Buchanan of Cowley had been regard
ed as the administration candidate.
There is no doubt but the admins
tration bills to go before the next leg
islature were discussed and plans
made for their advancement. The
next legislature is an extremely doubt
full quantity. It gives promise on its
face of making even more trouble
than it's predecessor. The initiative and
referendum will get many a body blow
from the standpat legislators and
Democrats and Independents next win
ter before it reaches the harbor at
Stubs desk. So will several other
planks in the party platform have
stormy passage through the rapids on
their way to the retail lumber dealers.
Whatever this conference was
about. 1t must have been important,
for 1t occupied most of the day with
only thirty minutes for lunch.

STOLE. AUTO SUPPLIES.
Two Young Men Do a Big Business
and Are Arrested.

Andrew Gentry and Ben Hill, who
were arrested Tuesday afternoon by
Detectives Golf and Voiles on a charge
of larceny, were released when the
stolen property was delivered to the
plaintiffs by Dave August, who pur-
chased the stolen goods. Gentry has
been working for the Mulvane & Wear
garage as a chauffeur and Hill was
mechanic in the Davis & johnson
garage at Seventh and Quincy streets
Some time ago the two men, accord :
ing to their own statements, began a
systematic system of stealing auto
mobile supplies from the garages in
which they were employed. A large
amount of these supplies, including
tires and carburettors were sold 10
August To the purchaser the men
represented that they had taken the
goods in part payment of their wages.
After a severe sweating at the police
station, the men told the story of their
thefts and officers went to the August
store, where the goods were found
It was then Mr.. August told his side
of the story. He said the goods
brought to his store would work on an
automobile which he owned and that
the young men said the goods had
come into their possession honestly. He
offered to turn the stolen goods over
to the garages. Then the plaintiffs
dismissed the action against Gentry
and Hill. Nearly $500 worth of stolen
sion and in the rooms which the men
occupied.
After dismissing the suits, there was
a reconciliation between the garage
men and the employees and today Gen
try and Hill returned to their old jobs.

TO Be BURIED IN SPAIN.
Body of the Gypsy Queen VIII Be
Taken to Europe.

Santa Monica. Cal, Nov. 3O.-Funeral
services for Stella Cortez Downs, other
wise known as Dolores Queen of the
Spanish gypsies, who died here last
night, will be postponed until the ar
rival from Philadelphia of Jos. Fels, a
millionaire soap manufacturer who in
a telegram said he would at once cross
the continent to attend the ceremonies.
The Philadelphian's desire to pay
homage to the dead woman is said to
result from the fact that the accumu-
lRtion of his fortune had been due to
his following her advice in business.
Following the custom of her tribe
Mrs. Downs is said to have foreto1d the
future to all who asked her although
after her marriage here 15 years ago
she abandoned the nomadic life and re-
linquished claim to the leadership of
her people. Her body, however will be
taken to Spain for burial.

Before Too Late.
TOO MUCH BUTTING IN

Salem, Ore, Nov. 3O.-Howard FL
lot, president of the Northern Pa
cif1c Railroad company, who was the
principal speaker at the second days
session of the Oregon Deve1opme emit
league convention, roundly scored the
people for interference, through rail-
road commissions, legislatures and bu-
reaus, in the management of railroads,
a business of which, he said. they have
no knowledge. In substance he said:
"Of late years everybody. and by
that mean the people at large,
through the legislatures. commissions
and bureaus, have been undertaking to
regulate and manage in detail some of
the larger forms of business, particu-
larry railways.
'"The result is that the people whose
real business it is to manage railroads,
I mean the owners and the men they
employ, are becoming discouraged by
being interfered with by everybody
and there is danger that this inter
ference will produce a condition where
the railway business is nobody's BUSH
ness
Continuing. Mr.. Elliot said:
1.-THE good sense of the American
people will probably make them real
ize the situation before it is too late,
but intelligent people should stop now
to consider whether it Is wise to go
on. Indefinitely attacking the transpor-
tation business or whether 1t Is not
better to let those who own 1t and the
trained men who have grown up in 1t,
manage it instead of turning that man
agement over to others. For illustra-
ton, the western states. particularly
Oregon, feel the so-called conservation
movement has gone too far and that
much valuable territory has been tied
up by the government orders. made by
some one far off who was not in posi-
ton to understand the real necessities
and conditions of the growing west.
Any unwise and unjust action of this
kind has a depressing effect in the de-
velopments of the country and in like
manner, similar arbitrary and unwise
action by legislatures com missions and
various bureaus that affect the initia-
tive and right of the owner of prop
erty to manage his own business. VIII

CUT OF $4,000, 900.
Is Made I'm the Estimates for Govern
ment Expenses.

Washington. Nov. 30.-A cut of $14.-
100000 in the estimates for the running
expenses of the government during the
next fiscal year was reported to Pres
ident Taft today as result Of his ulti-
metum to the various heads of depart
ments at the cabinet conference yes
terday.
The president was greatly gratified
with the showing announced but de-
clared there must be a still deeper cut.
So the cabinet meeting scheduled for
today was postponed until Friday to
allow the cabinet officers to make an
other revision of their figures. The de-
lay in the preparation of the presi-
dents message is said to be due to the
necessity of waiting for the estimates
in their final form.
Just as soon as the message is out
of the way the president will devote
the next three or four days to seeing
senators and representatives regarding
the legislative program.
