Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1890-03-12

Wellington Standard "A gentleman
who came over from Medicine Lodge
yesterday tells good story about the
district judge and prominent lawyer
of Barber county. Charlie Ellis is the
judge, and as his term will expire this
fall, he is doing everything in his power
to have himself re-nOminated and re-
elected. Andrew Jackson JONES' typi-
cal Kentucky lawyer and formerly
county attorney of Barber county, was
representing fair client-a lady of
course-in a case before Judge Ellis last
Friday. 1t soon became apparent to
him that the judges sympathles were
with the other party to the suit, who
was an elector of some influence, and
Mr.. Jones thinking the judge was vote
fishing, delivered himself of the follow
ing lecture for the full benefit of the
court Your honor, wish to remind
you, and [ hope you will not forget il
throughout the entire proceedings in
this case, that while my client is lady,
she has six or seven votes under her
control which it may be possible for you
to get If The rest of the lecture
was lost in the excitement which fol-
lowed. Andrew Jackson Jones has
since paid fine of S25 for contempt of
court Some say the matter will be
taken over into one one of the canyons
of the gypsum hills and settled there
according to the code"

Rats.

There was needed but one more cyl
dence of civilization to firmly establish
Medicine Lodge as one of the old, SUBJ
stantial towns-a place that had out
grown frontierism, that had passed the
cowboy stage and taken on the airs of a
progressive city. The one thing need
ed was rats Through nearly eighteen
years the city had never been visited by
a rata regular old rodent. They say
rats are signs of prosperity and that
they never board but always leave a
sinking ship. Well, the rats are here.
They came few days ago, probably a
month ago. Bill Watkins found one
nest with a dozen in it, at his barn.
Tom Campbell says they are thick In
the barns along Spring creek, in the
east part of town. Others testify that
the rat is here, and if he is he is here to
stay. He is not the wood rat, either,
but the rat that fashioned his tail after
the rat-tail file. The procession may
now move. Medicine Lodge is all right,
YOU bet.

Salt Discovered.

There has always been belief that
Barber county was underlaid with salt
| of the same thickness and quality as
that found at Kmgman. Hutchinson
and Anthony. There is no longer any
doubt about it. Last week MIR. Henry
Shamberger, who lives on the Clint
Busey place, tsec. l3, twp. 81, range 49,
one and one-half miles north of Mingo-
ia, was boring we'll, and when down
100 feet, he struck a vein of very strong
salt water-so strong that it could not
be used for domestic purposes. He
eYaporated some Of this water in the
sun, on boards, and was rewarded with
pure article of salt.
OF course Mr.. Shamberger's place,
about IL miles from here, is too far
away from railroad to talk of sinking
and operating salt shaft on it but If
the Santa Fe railroad builds to Mingo-
ma, on its grade already completed, the
Shamberger place will be close to the
line.
But suppOslng that the Mingona well
is not worked at all, 1t has been demon
strated that there is salt here, and much
nearer to the surface than IN any neigh
boring county. 1t is reasonable to sup
pose that rock salt is as plentiful here
as at Kingmau, and 1t must be at least
800 feet nearer the surface than it is in
the Kingman shafts.
1t may be that this city should at
once start a. prospect-hole. A year ago
bonds for the purpose, to the amount
of $1,000. were voted, though never is
sued These bonds are now available.
Salt is very cheap, but it may be more
valuable in time, and it would be an
other good advertisement for Barber
county to have it announced that it can
furnish salt in any abundance. This
industry, in connection with the sor-
ghum and beet sugar industry, and the
plaster and cement works, would GER
tainIy attract the attention of capital
to this locality.
