A MATTER OF FAIRNESS.

A curious case Of reasoning Is evil
denced in the ruling of the district
court in Miami county that t. T.
Kelly, exIstate treasurer and for
mer county treasurer, Is barred by
the statute Of limitations from re-
covering from the county.
At the close OF his term as treas
urer 1t was charged that he was short
in his accounts some $1,000. He
Immediately deposited with the Gown
ty the amount claimed and asked
for an Investigation. The inv IT,
cation was held and expert account
ants went over the books Tho re-
port finally made was that after ex-
aiming all the books ard vouchers
not only did Mr.. Kelly not owe the
county but he had a small balance
coming to him. This took time and
lie then asked that in equity there
be returned to him the money he
had deposited. This the county,
evidently through the political feel
ing of some opponents, refused to
do and he sued the county for 1t.
The court has ruled that Mr.. Kelly
cannot recover because the statute
of limitations has run.
There is in this country grow
ing dissatisfaction with the courts
because they make rulings on such
trivialities ar the misspelling of a
name or the omission Of com'ua
The people OF today demand Justice
and are not disposed to approve
technical bubbles. The dourt in
this instance has made ruling that
gems to the average citizen unfair.
The money is admitted to be Mr..
Kelly's. 1t does not belong to the
county. The right and fair thing
to do is to give 1t to its "ightful
owner 1t Is very cheap act on
the part of the officials Of the county
to plead the statute of limitations
in case like this and 1t Ia to be
hoped that the higher court will cor
rect the injustice that is involved.
Neither Mr.. Kelly's friends nor his
approve Of such flimsy ex-
cuse for keeping his money deposited
In good faith and proved by the In
vestlgation to belong to him alone.

SLEEPING OUT DOORS.

Wallace's Farmer: 1t seems
strange that 1t took people SO long
to learn the pleasure and benefit of
sleeping in the open air. Until very
recent years sleeping porches were
seldom seen. We shut ourselves up
in stuffy rooms and swelter during
the hot months, when by moving the
beds few feet into the open air We
could sleep in comfort. The cam
paign Of publicity to educate people
to the benefit Of fresh air as a pre-
ventlve and cure for consumption
led to the building of sleeping
pordhes and now most houses in
cities, except in congested portions,
have some sort Of sleeping porehes,
and architects are Incorporating
such pOrches in planning good
houses. The strange thing about
this lie that the movement should
have started in the city rather than
in the country. To be sure, It is
cooler in the country; but to bal
ance this the sleeping rooms are
smaller in the country. the house
less open. and the ventilation poor

added to the farm house. There Is

THE USUAL STORY.

We observe with some pain, though
with no surprise, that most of the
magazine publishers have been sued
by the government because they have
formed a trust in restraint of trade.
Involved in this crime, will be found
nearly all the muckrakers and trust
busters from Roy Stannard Baker to
Ida Tarbell, which only proves that
they would do as they say Rockefel-
Ter does II they had the chance. To
some people this win be a disagree
able revelation but they need not
worry about it. Rockefeller would
probably do as Ida Tarbeli does If
be were in her place.
So there isn't much difference in
human nature after all When Ida
was poor and ambitious she was hon
est and she sOeked II to the Standard
OH and the trusts. But when she
becomes rich and prosperous she
hobnobs with the trusts and she cir
cles to the left with the magazine
pubIishera in an attempt TO destroy

SAFETY FOR PAssENGERs.

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
railway company has a rule pro-
hibiting passengers from depositing
suit cases and other heavy baggage
in the coach hat racks. Train men
have some trouble enforcing this
rule, especially with travellers of
limited experience. Experienced
travellers learn rules quickly and
comply readily.
"The rule is made to protect pas
sengers from injury" G. w. Kouns,
general manager, explained when
asked about its enforcement. "The
jar Of rapidly moving train is suf-
ficient to cause suit case, or any
other package which hangs over the
side Of the rack, to fall, and many
passengers have been injured as a
result. These racks are for hats,
wraps and small packages. Every
passenger train Is equipped with a
car for the transportation of heavy
baggage, in order that passengers
may be comparatively free from the
burden of luggage, and travel in
comfort. There Is little comfort
when passengers seat is piled
high with luggage, and there is no
safety when hundred ponds Of
suit cases are likely to tumble down
from the hat racks. Passengers,
therefore, are urged to check their
heavy baggage, taking into the coach
,nly their lighter packages. An OBJ
servance Of this rule will reduce the
fatigue and annoyance of travel to
he minimum, and prevent accidents"

Re, has $4,000 damage suit ON its
lands as result of an injury to

SEVEN MONTHS months Of school
OF SCHOOL Of school In the
country districts,
commenting In all the districts on
September IL, The length Of the
school terms in rural Kansas for
merIy depended upon rainfall. Good
crops usually meant money for six
or seven months Of school and hot
winds meant that the children would
have to learn enough In four months
to do them for the year. The de-
cision as to the length Of the term
was made at the annual school meet
ing of the district held in the school
house the last Thursday In July.
That meeting was announced by no.
tices posted in "three conspicuous
places in the district and on the
schoolhouse door" by the son of
the districts clerk the second Sum
day before the meeting. BY the last
of July 1t usually was possible to
tell pretty accurately what the corn
would yield and the wheat and
oats, of course, already had been
harvested. But good crops didn't
always mean a unanimous vote for
a long term. If the corn promised
a good yield there would be some
arguments that the boys would be
needed at home to "shuck" until
ate in the fall and there was no use
starting them much before Christ
mas. And, Of course, there was a
Unanimous sentiment in favor of
having the term end in March, for
here always was the spring stalk

,erous and rich, can afford to run
