freight in regulation baggage cars OF

Commissioners W. II. korns and II
". Lawrence will oppose the granting

ditions. Commissioner Korns is of the
belief that tho city should have some
thing in the way of revenue for the
franchise. aud Commissioner Lawrence
is opposed 10 the lenrth of the fran
'hise. and believes that a clause should
provide for tho purchase of the road
lv the city, should the latter at any
time within ten years decide to take
such action.
The franchise will require that the
road shall gravel the streets over which
il may pass. "A distance OF twenty feet
ON the outside Of its outer rails, in
the event the street is uppayed, and
in the event that pavement il laid the
company is TO pave n distance Of two

Says UNCLE CAV

| When in doubt, follow the process
sion. There is a certain safety in
the beaten track. Ask the fellow
who sticks with the band" Also
it's a great way to get your bearings.
Neither thought nor forethought is
required to travel with the mob. All
you've got to do is to keep your feet
moving and refrain from worrying
about the direction. A comfortable
unthinking medioerity is all that is
necessary to membership in full.
The crowd never goes to destruction
| in any gallant fight for progress; it
merely treads the old paths, lazy, un-
agitated, more or less satisfied and
perfectly safe. Hence it is a haven
for those in doub BIT And there are
worse plans of action than drifting
and thinking until the time for dar-
ing arrives.
The fact that you've found some
thing different doesn't mean that
you've found something better. The
weird, the bizarre, the strange, the
are principally valuable for advertis-
ing purposes. Novelty isn't neces-
sarily of supreme merit. In forsaking
the mob you may get off the high
road into cocklebur patch.
The moral is, Don't jump the
fence until you know what kind of
fodder you'll find on the otheE side"
It is no harm to be called a freak
in good cause. But being a freak
merely to be freakish is sorry bust
ness. There is more or less merit in
the course of the millions, or they
wouldn't be travelling that way Bet
ter be comfortable mediocre than
a picturesque failure. Don't quit the
band until you find one that makes
better music or you have learned the
beauties of bird songs. Before you
give up the ancient and accepted way
of doing things, find a superior way
that is worth fighting for. On either
side the big road lie the fields of
battle and blood and martyrdom. If
your idea is merely different, the
game isn't worth the candle. If it
is better, the price is well paid

REDUCE THE FIRE Loss.

Ike s. Lewis, state superintendent al
| insurance, presented a few statistics
the other day which should make Kan
sans sit up and take notice. For the
year ending July 1, the insurance COM
panies paid out no less than So, III ,27s
for fire losses here. But this rather
enormous payment represents only
about one-half of the fire loss in the
state during that year. In other words
the fire losses in Kansas last year were
more than So per capita. This is even
larger than the per capita fire loss for
the entire country, which is in a class
by itself when compared with similar
losses in other lands.
Isn't it about time the people of the
United States, and the people of Kan
sas especially, We're paying a little at
tention to the suggestions that are be-
ing made which will lessen the fire
losses? Property destroyed by fire IS
just that much wealth of the world put
down and out for all time. A man may
be foresighted enough to have his prop
erty insured at it's full value, and to he
recompensed to that extent If a disas-
trous fire overtakes him. But the
money he is paid by the insurance
company comes out of the pockets Of
others. It is money that could be used
most probably as capital for the ex-
tension of enterprises, the development
of new ones and the making of the
wheels of business turn somewhat
quicker or surer.
Fire loss is a dead loss. This is a
proposition that is not debatabIe. And
much of the fire loss in Kansas and
other parts of this country could DE
avoided. In the first place, considerable
of 1t could be made unnecessary if
more attention was paid in the con-
struction of residences and small busi-
ness buildings to proper 1ues, to perfect
gas-piping, to safe electric light wiring.
These things may have a little larger
initial cost, but the extra money ex-
pended on them returns rich dividends.
Then, too, many of the fires that de-
stroy much and little property are due
to the extreme carelessness of the per-
sons living or doing business on the
property. They toss lighted matches
into boxes or baskets of paper; smoul-
dering little stubs of matches that do
not ignite the paper and waste until
many minutes and ofttimes hours after
the contact. They leave rubbish in their
cellars or in their barns and outhouses,
in which there are often old rags sat
urated with oil that eventually develop
spontaneous combustion. Men are care
less in throwing their cigar and cigar
cite butts into areaways. There are
hundred and one little acts of careless
ness that are responsible for most of
the fires. And it is high time that
everybody was beginning to pay some
attention to them, and mending their
careless ways in this most important
particular.
