The cry of enough coming from
farmers. in many parts of the state Is
not thinning the ranks Of the great
srmy of harvest hands on their way
from the eastern states to the western
Kansas harvest rields More than five
hundrd harvest hands are passing
through North Topeka every day. over
the Union Pacific. according to H. E.
Gaines, special agent for the Union "a
cific in North Topeka.
About half of these men ride the
messenger trains and pay their fares.
It is estimated by Gaines tnat mor
than two hundred and fifty harvest
hands bought tickets in North Topeka
wednesday for western Kansas. -,
The remainder of the men Dum
their way on freight trains. Every
freight train passing trough North TO
peka Wednesday and this morning car
ried a number of these men.
One thing that the railroad has to
contend with is the hobo who has no
idea of working in the harvest FIELDS.
They pass themselves for harvest
hands in order to steal ride. Railroad
officials think that about one-third OF
the men who ride the freights are Oh

The City's Move?
There is a white way pole standing at
the northeast corner of North Kansas
avenue and Railroad street which
promises to cause complication be-
tween the Union Pacific railroad and
the city.
When the white way was installed
last fall the pole was located on the
corner. A few days ago when the
Union Pacific made its survey prior to
paving 1t was found that the pole
would stand almost on the street now
being paved between the avenue and
the Union Pacific freight house.
At the time the survey was made
