Surprise is occasionally expressed that a million dollar paved road is being constructed all the way from St. Joseph to Atchison, at. no expense whatever to Atchison. Assuming that St. Jue IS responsible, we would like to say we consider it one of the smartest things that city ever did.

It means St. Joe is going to extend her retail trade, and feels sure she can do it at the expense of Atchison. In this belief she may be right, A paved road, with the thousands of automobiles in use, will tempt shoppers; there is no doubt about it. These shoppers can do as well at home, with equal stocks to select from, but people like to "look around," and loyalty to home merchants is never as steadfast as it might be. What are we to do about it? The only thing we can do is the encoursouth and north Atchison.

A agement of surfaced roads west, paved road up into Doniphan county would draw to Atchison much trade now going to St. Joe. road to the Leavenwortn line would draw trade from Leavenworth. The Effingham road, now being built, will draw trade here. We must fight the St.

Joe enterprise with her own weapons We must not be satisfied to let well enough alone. must not combat modern innovations, or be narrow and unprogressive. Generwily speaking, the country districts of Atchison county are 'not only willing but anxious to improve roads. The next time the state highway commission has general funds to apportion Atchison should send a delegation to Topeka 80 large that the highway commission will be impressed, and will be more liberal in its allotment to this county. The time when a common laborer could go out and command as high or even higher wages than the skilled mechanic has come to a close and the latter has come into his own again, says the Smith County Pioneer.

for instance farm labor. For several years, or up until last fall, a farm hand demanded and was getting better wages than the man who spent several years in learning a. trade. But this is changnow. This spring men who worked on farms are finding their services much less in demand, and when they do get a job it is at a wage of about Nity per cent of what it was last year.

The best of them are offered but $40 a month and board, and the less experienced ones command about $10 a month less. A week or so ago a young man in this city was approached by a farmers to work for him a month and $60 and his keep. Right off the bat the farmer replied: "You can't get any such wages from me. My farm will simply remain untended before I will give all profits to the man working it." That is the attitude most of the farmers are taking, and it is serving to bring down the demands of the workers. Another thing, harvest hand wages this season are bound to come in for a big slump.

Wheat raisers say they will get all the men they want at not over $3 a day, and a man and team for $5. Men who work for others have simply got to get their demands in line with the price of farm products, or they are going to remain idle. At least that is the way it looks now to an impartial observer. Jay House on recent Kansas incidents: They had party in Kansas Sunday night. One gentleman was led to the railway station and required to depart from the community under promise not to return to it.

Two others were permitted smear themselves with tar before departing. An editoral coadjutor believes we should rebuke the mob. The mob may, therefore, consider itself rebuked. SPRING IS HERE. Today, March 21, is the first day of spring--the day that everybody agreed upon as the time when "bustness would open up." Business 18 here.

It should be greater every day. Industry is awakening. On all sides you see evidences this. In every newspaper you read of resumption of work. Back to normal! It is a cheering thought.

Employer, employee, dealer and customer are glad of it. Out in the country the crops are being put in 8.8 of old. Mother Nature never takes a vacation, She is springing into her spring work, making the seeds sprout and the grow. The food of the world crops la going to be produced. The foundation of all prosperity exists as it alway did.

Business is here, It is not something to be waited for, not something to be wished for. It Today la the first day of springthe dawn of the good business era for us all. Let's go. Clande Minor, who was injured Tuesday night when his motor car turned over on the Catholic cemetery paved road, continues in critical condition at the Atchison hospital.

O'Keefe, county attorney. Bolton was not depressed. His attitude almost to the jovial, and seemed glad he was on his way tended. to serve his long sentence.

"I'se gwine to be one good darkey at Lansing," he told Ed McCullough. "They ain't gwine to have to put me in no straight jacket.

If you are easily shocked don't read this story on an old-fashioned couple which an Atchison railroad man declares to be true: An old man and a woman got on the Central Branch passenger train. They stood on the back platform to wave goodbye to some friends and when the train started the old man lost his balance and fell off. His wife ran into the coach and shouted to the conductor. "My old man has fallen off the back porch," she screamed. The train was stopped and he was picked up.

He was bruised and unconscious but not seriously hurt. He was carried into the baggage coach and laid upon a stretcher. Within a few minutes, however, he regained his senses. "Pardon me," he said to the conductor, who was leaning over him, would like use your chamber."

COLE EIGHT TURNED OVER Denny Maguire Was in Machine But Escaped Injury--Car Badly Damaged. From Wednesday's Daily.

Claude Minor, 40 years old, proprietor of a pool hall at 119 South Third street, probably was fatally injured about 10 o'clock last night when his motor car, a big Cole Eight, turned over twice when it plunged off the concrete of the Catholic cemetery road. Speed of the car when the accident occurred was estimated between 50 and 60 miles an hour. Frightened by the extra speed of the car, according to mucounta of the accidents told authorities last night, Denny Maguire, who was also an occupant car, had opened door and Madhone foot on the running board when the machine plunged from the road. Te was thrown several feet through the air, but after he recovered his breath discovered he had sustained no injury whatever. The plunge was made on the $-turn in the Catholic cemetery road near street.

Driving north, the machine was going at such speed that when it left the road it not only turned (over completely, but when it finally came to a stop it was headed south. When Maguire returned to the machine after his flight through the air and subsequent. recovery, he found the car on its side. The top was completely demolished, as was the wind shield. Glass from the windshield struck Minor about the head and face, cutting three large gashes in hie head and several scratches about the face and neck.

A large swelling on his nead cated he also had been struck a forcible blow in the accident. Phystcians attending Minor believe he is suffering with A back, as there is a large swelling, six inches in length and more than an inch wide on the vertebrae near the small of the back, Little hope is held out for his recovery. After extricating Minor from the wreck, Maguire flagged a passing motor car and Minor was taken to his home above his pool hall, before physicians were summoned. The discovery that his baon was broken was not made until after the trip to town and the examination, and afI ter he had been carried up stairs to his rooms. Minor is semi-conscious.

Some of the time he is in a state of coma and at other times he talks with great effort to his wife, who has been at his bedside constantly since the accident. He was removed from his rooms to the Atchison hospital about midnight last night. Ground for a distance of several feet was plowed up by the big machine when it turned over. The high rate of speed at which Minor attempted to negotiate the two quarter turns necessary in following the concrete road caused the left wheels to leave the concrete. At this point there is ditch several inches deep and the lack of support under the flying wheels caused the machine to practically leap off the road onto the soft earth beside the concrete, where the double turn-over resulted.

The top and windshield were not demolished but both were jerkonly, from their moorings to the machine. Otherwise the car was but slightly damaged. Minor has lived in Atchison about a year. He came here from St. Joe.

Colonel Clyde R. Terry, who accidentally shot and kiled his wife at Burlington, Kansas, several days ago, was well known to Atchison young men who served with the 35th division overseas.

He served with in the 138th infantry for a time, and later was assigned to the 110th sanitary train, of which Bob Holcombe was a sergeant. Colonel Terry is the president of the Kelly Military academy near Burlington, and an instructor in the school.

Several days ago his wife visited the classroom while Colonel Terry was Instructing members of one of the classes in the use of the army revolver. His wife was seated a few feet to the side of him, when Colonel Terry accidentally discharged the weapon. The bullet at entered his wife's heart, and she died within a few seconds. Bob Holcombe was well acquainted with both Colonel and Mrs. Terry.

at H. B. Walters, of Bendena: "That editorial published in The Globe last Wednesday, 'What Good Roads was one of the most practical suggestions that I ever real. It hit the nail on the head. I know from direct observation that St.

Joseph draws a great deal of trade from around Bendena and Moray and Doniphan that would come to Atchison if the right kind of roads were provided. This trade in rightfully Atchison's, a and poor roads are the preventive to Atchison ing the patronage from these disa tricts, as well as west and mouth the city. If Atchison can put Across a big road program soon, it will be mighty wise move for the city well as the farmers in Atchison's trade territory." St. Among the queer stunts at the Initiation of 150 Elks at 8t. Joe early this week was one which appealed 8 especially to Atchison men who atthe tended the ceremony.

A handful of corn was placed on his bared chest, together with a dozen earth worma, and four bantam roosters which had been in starved for a week were turned loose to eat the corn and worms.

Lindsborg, is such a smail place that artists and audiences frequently come into close contact with each other, and Mrs. Hendrickson met and talked with Erika Morini, of whom Mrs. Hendrickson says: "She was utterly without mannerisms, and artlessly childish and charming. It was the 'talk' in Lindsborg that Erika Morini is advertised as seventeen, although only fifteen, because of the child labor law. And it is probably true: Kansas 15 mighty fussy about that law."
