Highest market price paid for produce. Goering-Kkehbiul, Hoch Can Still Withdraw. Even if Gov. Hoch's conscience is entirely clear as to the motives that actuated him into going into the "Katy" affair, he must be thoroughly convinced by this time that it would have been better for the United States government, for Kansas, and for the governor himself had he stayed out. In his heart he knows this to be true, whether he ever brings himself to a public admission of this fact or not.

Mr. Hoch seems to have taken much comfort in the supreme court's attitude toward the suit. In fact all that the supremecourt has done has been to permit the suit to be entered "without prejudice subject to future consideration. In other words, the competence of Kansas to act as sponsor for the railroad company has not yet been determined. Gov.

Hoch seems to have the impressiou that the case has been given a footing that will insure a trial on its merits. But there must first be a hearing as to whether Kansas has a right to act as the "next friend" of the "Katy." It is not too late for Gov. Hoch to withdraw from this unfortunate situation. Whether with full knowledge of what he was doing or under a misconception of his duties, he made by far the most serious mistake of his life. It is not merely a personal mistake.

It involves the federal government and the state of Kansas as well as the executive himself. It is the kind of a mistake that a good and courageous man would thank heaven he had a chance to correct.
