Class Reunion

A most enjoyable feature in the T.
@. II. S. annals was a reunion of the
class of '09 Monday evening in the
shape of a picnic and fishing excur-
sion to Galloway's Grove north of
town. Dame Fortune favored them
for the day was ideal. All of the
members were present with the ex-
ceptiOn of Hattie Straw, who was
unable to be with them on account
of the illness of Stanley. And o you
eatin's! One would think, judging
by the bounteous spread set down to,
that all this talk of drouth and hard
times was nothing but humbug any
way. Several snap shots of the party
were taken as souvenirs of the oc-
casion- Old "reminiscences were in
dulged in, songs sung and stories told
around camp fire, until late hour
when they all adjourned and wended
their way city-ward with the firm
resolution to meet again next year
and renew old ties.

Kansas City Market Report

Kansas City Stock Yards, July 18,
1911.
Cattle receipts were light again
strong to 10 higher, duplicating it's
advance of yesterday. Shippers from
below the quarantine line have al
most quit shipping this week, total
supply from that district less than
100 cars for the Two days this week.
Grass is growing good now in Okla
homa, and owners want to put on a
little weight. They also would like
to see the market on a higher level
before cutting loose. The latter part
of this wish is fast coming true, as
quarantine cattle have sold 10 to Is
higher each day for two days now.
Kansas grass cattle sold up to $500
here yesterday, good weight steers
from 1915 up, and medium weight
steers at $500 to $3.50. Dealers do
not expect many grass cattle from
Kansas this week, because of the
good rains yesterday. Dry lot cattle
continue to creep up little, one lot
of prime steers, ], 1893 lbs, here today
at $3.50, highest price since January.
Top fed heifers brought 86. 55 today,
and corn fed cattle sets at ~ 10 and
upwards. If the weather permits
the marketing of cattle at the will of
owners balance of the summer there
should be good market all the time.
Country demand for StockerS and
feeders is urgent this week, prices a
shade higher, most of the sales at
S4 90 to S5. 80, d fair number of COM
mon stock steers at So 25 to $3.50,
stock cows and heifers S2.85 to S4.OO.
The small supply of quarantine cat
tie sold quick today, steers at $3.50
to 1925, cows 3D. Is to S4.OO. Native
calves sell at 81 90 to $3.50, cows 81. so
to S4. so.
Small hog receipts today permitted
statesmen to enforce another raise in
prices, to 10 cents, though there
was the usual attempt to discredit
the advance toward the close of the
session. The run here today is H.
600, top hogs s6.65, paid for heavy
weights and for mediums, bulk of
sales at S6. 80 to $3.50 A good deal
of trash was included today, largely
in the light class, which widened the
range of prices on light hogs, &c. 20 to
S. 55. Packers have made an unusual
fight on the market for the past
week, apparently fooeseeing good
advance in the near future, and en-

Market Corresponds
State Law VS.. City Ordinances

If in driving along the streets of
Kansas cities you should overtake
vehicle going in the same direction it
will cost you $50 if you turn to the
right, and 800 if you do not turn
that way in order to pass the vehicle.
Practically every city has an ordi-
nance that tells how one must turn
in passing vehicles. a perusal of the
city ordinances in the state library
shows that practically all of them
require that in overtaking and pass
ing vehicle going in the same
direction you should turn to the left.
Fines of from $40 to $50 are pre-
scribed for not obeying the ordi-
nanceS.
The 1911 Legislature made COM
plete revision of the Kansas road
laws and also changed the laws re-
lating to the manner of driving on
the public roads and streets of the
state. This law provides that in
overtaking and passing a vehicle
going in the same direction one
must turn to the right in passing
preScribeS a fine of 800 for viola
tionS.
The same rules apply to the drivers
of motor driven vehicles. If driver
obeys the city ordinances he gets into
trouble with the state, and if the
state law is obeyed the driver gets
into trouble with the city. The state
law, being that of the larger corpora
tion and the cities being creatures of
the state, the state law must stand
and the cities must change their or
dinaDceS to conform to the state
laws.-OSborne Farmer.

A Pond Law

The last legislature must have seen
the drouth coming. At any rate it
passed a law, the benefits of which
are just becoming apparent, that was
intended to safegard farmers in the
western half of the state against
shortage of water by providing tax
rebates where ponds were built. A
number of farmers took advantage of
the law and built dams early in the
spring when water was abundant,
and as result, have had plenty of
water for their stock, while their
neighbors have been forced to haul
water long distances or dispose of
their stock at low prices. The law
applies to ponds already built any
where in the state as well as to new
ly constructed reservoirs. 1t pro-
videS for dams of earth impounding
not less than an acre foot of water
the land owner shall have the reduc-
tion of 500 in assessment Not more
than three such dams shall be con-
structed on each 16O acre tract. Ponds
containing four acre feet or more of
water will reduce the assessment 5000
for each pond. For dams of brick,
cement or stone, an additional re-
duction of 500 in assessment for
each dam, not to exceed three on
each I60 acre tract, is provided The
law directs the county engineer to
survey ponds and draw plats of them
at the expense of the county, for the
purpose of certification to the board
of county commissioners with the
farmers application for the reduc-
tion in assessment. 1t is made the
engineers duty also to give free adj
vice to farmers desiring to construct
dams. Osborne Farmer

Death of p. j. Gubbins

l.
river into the great beyond about
noon on the 18th of July. He was
born in Tiperary, Ireland, 80 years
ago last March He was united in
marriage in the Jesuit Cathedral,
Chicago, A years ago to the wife who
now survives him. Last Saturday
forenoon the funeral services were
held at COllyer in the large Catholic
church and were conducted by the
residing priest, Father Ziegenfuss,
and was largely attended. He served
three years in the navy during the
Civil war and was on several different
vessels, being at the capture of
VickSburg. In honor of his service
flags were at half mast were also placed
at each side of the church altar by the
patriotic priest. Mr.. Gubbins came
to this community 80 years ago last
April and was one of the committee
chosen to select the site for the town
of Collyer, and has ever been identi-
fed with many of its Improvements.
He was commander of the Collyer G.
A. R. Post, for two years. For a
number of years he resided in the
little town he saw spring from the
barren prairie in the spot selected
by the committee number of years
ago. Few of the old settlers are
better known than Mr.. GubbinS.
Though at times he seemed abrupt,
it was not from the heart, only the
tongue; he was man of really high
character and fine sence of honor.
Things have come under the writer's
own observation that have been sur
prising considering the clustering
exterior which people did not always
understand. 1t is so much easier to
forget the many kindly acts that go
to his credit than the outSpoken
truths that sometimes hurt. By
nature he was kindness itself and the
presence was likely to hear some
thing that would not soon be for
gotten. "a death beds dictator of
the heart, here diSSimulation drops
its mask The writer alludes to the
above because the deceased so deeply
regretted and expressed sorrow that
he may have hurt others, thus giving
proof of his kindly nature. His suf-
ferings we're very great and death
down of the entire system. The
prayers of his devoted wife were that
she might be spared while he lived
His last words to her were: ''Come
with me, come with me-" The widow
has the deepest sympathy of the en-
tire community. Nellie Davis.

REPORTER
Still Froths, Sloops Over
and Runs Down the
Sides.

Had we been aware that the
Reporter staff was going to take
our scare head" of last week so
seriously that it frightened them
to the extent which they state in
we would have been a little more
careful how we Jared their SEN
sitives nerves. The Reporter
can't get away from the idea
that the editor of this paper is
sore over that dollar fine, and
while we are candid in saying
we wish we had the dollar back
it is not that which we kicked on
at all but the dirty low treat
ment which we received at the
hands of the men With engineer
ed things, and with all the pious
canting of the Reporter it knows
the smallness and meanneSs of
that transaction whether it will
admit it or not.
We are not so particular about
keeping up this controversy but
as long as the Reporter opened
it we will see il through. Now,
it cannot be possible that Mr..
English has anything personal
against US, for we don't know the
gentleman (have no desire now
have never harmed him in any
way, and why he attacks US we
are just a little at sea to know.
A young man don't use muck
rake and go snooping around
the court house trying to un-
earth graft against a man he
doesn't know and if the fellow
that is using him for a soft dupe
will come out and sign his name
it will give US pleasure to deal
a-week type sticker who don t
know US and with whom we
have no desire to have any deal
ings. whatever.
think it's mighty unbecom-
ing for newspaper that sails
under two separate political
heads, at home Democrat, and
at Quinter Republican to stand
up and hoIler graft. How fell
low can be both and accept sup
port from both and not be a
DI0OUY we'll 1Q11 hCoSOo
CRATER would be pretty hard to
understand.
The World has been run by
this editor almost nineteen years
and if the Reporter can unearth
any graft he is welcome to air 1t
far and wide. Our citizenship,
our stand for the best interests
in Trego county, our loyalty to
our party and always our en-
tire effort for the best things for
Wa-Keeney in all these years are
known and recognized by those
who have staid here during the
good times and the bad ones,
and when an entire stranger
comes in and begins harping on
what we are and what we have
been we think he shoots a little
wide of the mark and the few
brains that he has don't lay far
from his pants bosom.
If, perchance, this article
causes Mr.. English any pain or
