Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1891-04-09

THE wet nurse Of the republican
party in Kansas, the Topeka Capital,
says:
From now on till November 1892,
every republican should be fighting
republican. No compromises, no mug
wump namby pambyism, no voting for
men who didn't vote for republicans
last November. Loyalty is what the
republican party demands this year of
every man who calls himself repuDli-
can."
Yes! boys. take your medicine.
Don't make any difference about pro-
tests, whether you like it or not,
whether yours or your neighbor's case
has been diagnosed or not, the ''old
gang" as sisted by the railroads, will fix
up a violent cathartic, and your old
wet nurse. the dear old Topeka Capital,
will administer it to you, AS the boys
used to say, 'Open your mouth and
close your eyes. and you'll get some
thing to make you wise News.

The Father OF the CHILD Decline
to Prosecute.
= On Monday District Attorne
: Edwards in open Court called 70
jury in the recent case where
nan was charged with assault
ing child below the age OF con
sent.
Judge Rising finally decided az
ter consultation with the Dis
trlct Attorney not to call Crane
jury, until the authorities could
be certain OF securing the neces.
sary evidence.
The father of the child stated
to the Judge that he was satisfied
that there had bean no outrage
committed, and he did not wish to
press the matter. The mother
was also strongly adverse to any
further publicity, and the child
insisted when questioned, that
there had been no outrage.
Judge Rising stated that so
long as the those parties would
not give evidence for the prosecu-
ton, there could be no conviction
aud the county would be put to A
useless expense
As for the charge that money
had been usei. the father strenu
ously denied receiving any and if
placed on the stand he could not
be compelled legally to answer
questions that eliminated himself
No Grand Jury could meet be-
fore the 23i. aud il any new evi
dence reached the ears OF the Dis
trict Attorney prior to that time
he was Instructed to proceed.
The Judge said that if the |
crime charged could he proven |
the Court would leave nothing I'M
done to bring the party charged
with the offen5e. back to the CITY /
for trial and punishment, but the
Court would not put the county 10
expense where there was no Dos
sibility of cpnvi ton, AMI the
Grand Jury will accordingly not
meet before the 23rd.
Meanwhile the Di trict ATTORNEY
was instructed to procure any
evidence obtainable pending the
meeting OF the G aud Jury at the
ocular time.

secure County Uniformity and cOnse-
quently there is deal" somewhere.
BY little investigation we shall see
that they are not working to secure
county uniformity in such counties
as Howard and the reason why they
are not is that they are now selling
all the books in the district town
ship but the grammar. Why should
they desire change? They could
not sell any more books than they
are now doing and there is a posi-
bility that other books might be ad-
opted and in that event they lose
the sale they now enjoy; besides the
contract prices are much lower than
their present wholesale prices to us.
Therefore it does seem to us that
electors need have no fears on that
point.
Sec. 8 of the new law fixes the time
Of taking the vote on the second
Monday in March, the day on which
the district township meetings and
election Of directors in independent
districts il held.
Another part Of the same section
reads: The boards of school officers
who are made the judges of the
school meetings, shall certify to the
board Of supervisors the full returns
of the votes cast at SAID meetings,
the nextuay aver the holding Of said
meetings, who shall, at their next
regular meeting, proceed to canvass
said votes and declare the result.
From the above it will be seen that
the old boards are to be the judges
Of election. The election shall take
place at the usual place OF holding
the district township meetings and
in the rural independent districts at
the school houses in their respective
districts. The Board OF Education
has fixed the time for opening the
polls at 3 o'clock and closing at 4
o'clock.
The ballots will be "fOr county uni
formity" and $ against county uni
formity." Poll books and ballots
will be sent to the secretaries in due
time.
The county superintendent will
gladly answer questions sent him
touching this question.

Pilot Grove Correspondence.

The people Of Cresc0 and vicinity
are indulging in spirited discussion
in regard to the proposed Farmers
Alliance Store. Speaking from the
standpoint Of q farmer, we deeply
regret the antagonisln that is grow
ing up between the farmers and local
retail merchants; for we hold that
the farmer and the local merchant
are on board the same ship, and
rapidly approaching Niagara. The
farmers and merchants, instead of
cultivating this unnatural estrange-
ment, should join hands at the ballot
box to defend themselves against
their common enemies-class legisla-
ton and combines. Farmers have
nothing to fear from numerous retail
stores where free competition II the
rule OF action.

When We realize the fact that 05
per cent of all individuals who en-
bark in the mercantile business make
q failure OF it. we are in q position to
realize the extremely hazardous un-
dertaking of farmers going into such
business in which they have no
schooling.
