%. that he would have to leave her for
a month in order to attend to business

used the conveyance to take his wife to
a hospital. She will recover. The acid

Kansas and Her Sister States on 2
Cent Fare.

With a hope that two cent inter
state passenger rate can be eStaphSn-
ed in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri ana
missions in these states have been
planning for an application before the
interstate commerce commission TO
put these rates in effect. AT present
Kansas has a two cent passenger rate
by virtue of an agreement made in
1909; and adjoining states want SINH
lar arrangements until the legality OF
the rate is finally determined by the
United States supreme court
No definite action has yet been taken
by any of the commissions. At the
offices of the Kansas commission, it is
admitted that there has been some cor
respondence regarding the proposed IN
terstate rate and it is probable that
the Kansas commission Will ana the
other states to benefit by two cent
