ton with the exceptional facilities il
offers, not only in buildings and equip
ment, but in practical teachers and
its own copyrighted systems. It's

cause of their efficient training.
Their students are trained to such
degree of practical efficiency that

position heretofore occupied only by
experienced help. The Underwood

turn out from now until March list.
We are informed that the lowest

Do our young people realize the ne
cessity of a business education, ana
that they stand no more show of
making a success in the business
world without first getting a business
training than would the lawyer, doc

An Instrument of Reform

Judge Guthrie of Kansas City who lately mitted Col Nelson of the Star for contempt must by this time be very repentant jurist if he has taken notice of the tide of denuncaton and rdicule which is rolling from to ocean.
 The newspapers of the cou1AIy regardless of political complexion have assailed him with undis- suised contempt. Judge Guthrie probably does read all the newspapers 'n the United States but the Star returning good for evil is collecting day by day, and publishing, the utterances press the late contempt proceedings So if Judge Guthries keeps his subscription the paid up, he will have opportunity of finding what the country thinks of him
 Here was a case of small judge attacking without cause a powerful newspaper, and exercising attempting to exercise a power which should never be vested in a single man. That it has been so nfrequentIy wrongly used is complimentary to the character of the American bench. But the presence owand then the bench of men of the type of Judge Guthrie reminds that the power is a dangerous to be left in the hands of any single human being
 Judge Guthrie in this case has succeeded only in njurng himself and indirectly, the by the exercise of it. But if his intended victim a less powerful an6 influential person than the owner of the Star, judicial tyranny would have been triumphant
 The Kansas City incident though it occurred but little more than week ago has been followed by the introduction in several legislatures of bills limiting he power of courts in contempt So this little Kansas City judge of whom the country had never heard has unwittingly made himself an instrument of reform, whereat again re- minded that great achievements are sometimes accomplished with Insignificant and unworthy tools.

WHEN I'VE BEEN BAD

(Anna Cooper in St Nichoas) When I've been bad, my mother says,
 All right,sOn. Just you wait" And when night comes, we listen
 For my father at the gate. And if it's me that hears him first, l run to let him in, And tell him all about it,
 Fore mother can begin. And sometimes when I've finished,
 He looks down at me and grins, And says that it reminds him
 Of his own boyhood sins; Then he leads me into mother,
 And he says. Poor little lad, I really don't think, sweetheart,
 That he's been so very bad" But last night, by the window,
 While l watched the shadows creep, My eyes got very heavy
 And I, somehow, fell asleep, I could have told him easy.
 Just why I screamed and kicked; But mother was ahead of me
 And that time I got licked!

Good Roads Meetinq

The State Good Roads Association will meet here today to give impetus road build ing which was brought to a standstill nearly year ago for want of funds Meanwhile the association has not been idle It has been engaged in creating sentiment in favor of good roads; in allayng op- position in certain localities and in dissipating the Jealousies of various communities whose interests seemed to be in conflict. We suppose too that the association has provided itself with data regarding the cost of construction of the various proposed links, which will aid the legislature in determining the amount of the appropriation that may be saTy for carrying on the work. With the nforma- uon that the state engineer and the association will be prepared to furnish the legislature it can pro- cced more inteligently than the territorial leg isature did, when it laid foundation for state road building.
