Mr.. Farmer if YOU owned a

Mr.. Farmer if you owned a
store, hired a manager and paid
him big salary and every year
the business showed loss what
would you do? One of two
things. Fire him or insist on
his making the business pay.
Then if he should come to you
and propose to add another line
to sell at still greater reduction
when he is losing on those ham
died what would you do? Put
your foot down on it of course.
This last proposition is the par
GELS post. How can the post
office department consistently
add department to carry mail
at less rate than is now charged
when it is already a losing propo-
sition? The News has no desire
to argue this question or dispute
over it. Almost as many of the
stockholders of the paper are
farmers as are business men,
and the paper is as much inter-
ested in their welfare as in the
business institutions of the town,
therefore we only say what we
honestly believe. The News has
no intention or desire to antago-
nize our farmers. They are abb
solutely necessary to the town,
but at the same time the the
town IS necessary to the farmer.
There should not be any feeling
between the two classes. Each
is dependant on the other and
what is good for one is also bene-
fetal to the other. We have seen
nothing to change our opinion in
regard to the parcels post, but
if we come to the point where
we find ourself mistaken we will
will have the courage to come
out openly and say so.

Bought Mining Stock

The last issue of the Liberal
News contained a sensational
story to the effect that a number
of people of that town had been
stung through the purchase of
stock in mine projected by the
Sonora Developing Co. Ltd, of
Llano, Mexico, and stated further
that mber of Meade people
had also fallen victim to the
stock salesman, Liberal man.
According to the story the mine
had been "salted," }" and although
the project has been under way
for two years the real facts only
came to light when the interest
ed parties had gone to the scene
to putin machinery to work the
mine.
AS soon as the news reached
here we began making inquiries
to locate the Meade stockholders
but have failed to find anyone
here who has any connection
with the mine. We understand
that party at Fowler recently
acquired stock in the mine and
has started legal action to re-
cover property transferred in
the deal, with every prospect of
being successful.
A number of Meade people
have mining interests in Mexico
but none are interested in that
at Llano.

Legislative News.

The champion freak bill of the
country was introduced in the
house this morning by George
Cones, of Meade country, which
would prohibit the wearing of
"tights" on the stage or IN pub
lie by any female. 1t also pro-
h1bits any female from appear
ing IN public with skirt on that
hangs less than four inches be-
low the patella or knee cap. The
penalty is fine of 500 or i'm
prisonment in jail for month or
two.
The chaste and modest Mr..
Cones comes from one of the
southwest counties of the state
and is a new member. He is
young and bashful. While he
cannot prevent the shock to his
sensibilities at the Topeka thea
ters this winter, yet he will be
able, in the event that his bill
passes, to come here two years
hence and sit through a theatre
performance as tame as any Sun
day school in the far western
county of Meade.
The pony ballet must go, and
the broilers, and the stately beau
ties who exposed their statuesque
forms in tights. The man on the
front row at the musical comedy
show will mourn and refuse to
comforted. The theater COM
panies that come to Kansas will
have to have two sets of costumes
for their chorus girls. The
tights and spangles and butter
fly costumes will have to be laid
aside in this state and the Pris-
ella gown, the mother hubbard
and sackcloth and ashes substi-
tuted for the same. But maybe
not, maybe the house will con-
sign Mr.. Cones bill to the scrap
heap.-TopeBa State Journal.

day, has been invited by his fell
low members to go and see the
"Kissing Girl" musical comedy
at the Grand next week. They
figure that the show will do the
western member a lot of good.
Maybe he will withdraw his bill
if he goes to the show. Mr..
Cones, by the way, keeps good
natured while the members josh
him about his bill.-Topeka State
Journal.
Among the bills introduced by
Representative Cones of Meade,
are these:
Prohibiting Sunday baseball.
Prohibiting women wearing
tights.
Prohibiting pictures of women
in tights in newspapers, on bill
boards or in moving pi C t II e
shows.
Prohibiting moving pictures
of deeds which are in themselves
fe1onies.
The house will receive a mes
sage from the senate Monday. 1t
will be a big picture of some show
girls, all wearing tights. But
some of the senators have taken
colored blotters and p a S t e d
skirts on all the girls so that the
tights are hidden and the pic
lures show young women prop
erly clothed as Mr.. Cones would
have them. The picture will
become a part of the official
records of the house as it will be
sent in as all regular senate mes
sages are sent.-Hutchinson

TUCSON, Nov. 11.-(SpeciaL)-All were broken tonight. when the re- publicans opened their state campaign with two huge meetings and a parade four blocks in length The main meeting was at the opera house and was preceded by a large meeting of the Spanish American club. The op- era house was inadequate to accom- modate the crowd and the overflow listened to speeches from the street The speakers were Wells. Cameron. Hoval Smith and Williams. Chairman Hubber made a brief speech in Span ish.
 The feature of the meeting was the promulgation of the party platform, which was effectively read by P. H. Hayes. chairman of the MaricOpa county committee and secretary of the state central committee. Com puIsOry arbitration and the presiden- tial primary blanks were loudly cheered. and also the pledge to re- submit the recall of judges. Almost the entire state ticket and all candi- dates on the county ticket partici- pated in the parade. and sat on the platform. It is estimated that the candidates were heard by 5000 people lat both meetings. How to restore propsperity to Arizona was touched on by each speaker and found a hearty response.

 FIGURE IN TRIAL
Expert Testimony Will Be Introduced in Murder Case to Show Cause
 of Times Explosion.

LOS ANGELES. Nov. 11.-Masses of twisted iron and photographs or great girders will play an important part in the McNamara murder trial :n determining the cause of the eX- plosion which wrecked the Times plant with a loss of twenty-one lives. Whether James B. McNamara, by use of dynamite, caused these deaths, for one of which. Charles B. Haggerty. is now on trial. will be determined largely by expert evidence. 1t was said today The defense. it became known. will seek to show that the big steel girders were twisted out of place by fire and fire alone. They contend that dynamite would rend and not warp beams. The position of the state on this, as on other points. is not known, but it is said the theory will be advanced that moderate explosion of dynamite set off broken gas pipe, which was broken purposely, causing the great disaster Jurors and talesmen were given a long automobile ride through the orange belt and will be given an- other tomorrow.

STORM HAS PASSED
 IN FAR NORTHWEST

SEATTLE Wash, Nov. 11.-An icy storm which is sweeping east ward from the North Pacific ocean has now overspread western Canada and Washington and has nearly eX- hausted its energy here and the temperature is rising. Snow began to fall here. at Vancouver and Vic toria just before dark and promises to continue all night. Snow here is wet and will probably merge into rain. In Vancouver and Victoria, five inches had fallen in thick layer, which was on the ground before the present fall. The temperature at Vancouver fell to ten above.
 At Victoria low November tempera- ture records have been beaten by two degrees. At Seattle, the first half November records are broken. Heavy rains are expected near salt water and deep snow in the mountains, making trouble for the railroads.
