A well known citizen of Joplin
who stands in a position to know
what he is talkiugaboutsnys: -Joplin
is bound to have closer connec
tion with Galena this summer, and
mark my word, one of the two elec
tric lines will be extended to that
flourishing town, and 1 think it will
be the Joplin line. The stockhold
ers are all wealthy business men of
SL Louis snd they do not wish to
dispose of their interest in the line,
and yet just now they realize that
something must be done in the near
future to successfully keep the line
up to its past high stundingin the
way of efficient service. Travel be
tween Joplin and Galena by rail
road aud vehicles is far greater
than people realise, and the electric
road that pushes through first will
reap a harvest, and it is my opinion
that the SL Louis people who have
interests in the line will not be slow
In finding it out"

Melrose, J. A. Dent of Peoria and J.

AN EDUCATIONAL BOOfl.
Editors News: Our city council acted
wisely when it contracted to use our old
city hall building for educational purposes
Its barred basement windows savor too
much of the old Baxter Springs when
chaos reigned and criminal license was su
preme. If we could wipe out the influ
ence of that past, or if we could efface
every vestige of its degrading nature in
our midst, then the bright star of hope
might appear above our horizon
The two fires that cleared Military street
and gave ns the morning of new Baxter
Springs must be repeated in another form
to remove the curse that has fated every
enterprise. Perhaps an educational boom
' may help to accomplish that end.
We are
certain it will prove more satisfactory and
less expensive.
In the great responsibility assumed by
Professors Bowman and Browning, tbey
must not be held accountable for all the
success of an educational boom, but every
citizen of Baxter Springs should feel that
he or she has a deep interest in this all im
throw off this responsibility if we would
see the enterprise a success
The greatest obstacle in the way will be
to find cheap boarding houses. The natu
ral inclination of this community will be
to raise the price of board as they have
always inflated the price of lots at each of
the deathly material booms that her past
history has recorded. We have always
found it impossible to hold the county
summer normal in Baxter because we
could not accommodate the teachers with
the places and prices they could secure in
Columbus. This obstacle must be re
moved! Valparaiso, Indiana, which once had no
better educational facilities than we pre
sent, organized a similar enterprise and
when we were last through there she had
over eighteen hundred students. . Our Ba
ker University at the little town of Bald
win is a fine illustration of what a people
can do when they are a unit in any move
ment. Altamont, in Labette county,
through the energy of her citizens, and
the wisdom and sagacity of Mrs. Best,
their county superintendent, located the
Labette county high school at that place, a
place of only four hundred inhabitants,
and the first year they have over one hun
dred and twenty-five students, the very
cream of the county, and with Professor
Hanna and his able corps of teachers,
(bey have made it by far the best high
school in Southeastern Kansas. The peo
ple in that place offered as an inducement
to rent rooms for one dollar s month and
each student furnish his own room. If we
had a few benevolent men of means in
Baxter Springs and could secure the old
Occidental, which was once one of our
best hotels, and dedicate it to the use of
the students as a dormitory instead of al
lowing it to stand and disgrace and blacken
the character of our city as it has for the
past three years, what a grand step in ad
vance it would be to encourage the new
educational movement.
Respectfully, E. O. Noble.
