Increased Police Force.

Great Bend has probably the larg-
est police force of any town of her
size in the west. Besides Marshal
Winstead and Night Marshal Ewalt,
the members Of The fire department
are all sworn in as special police, and
have all the powers of the marshal to
quell disturbances, make arrests, etc.
We believe the making special police
men of the fremen is a good plan.
There are times when the marshal is
needed but may be off in some other
part of the city, when any of the spec
ial policemen can be called upon to
make arrests or queil disturbances.
They are employed in various parts of
the city and some of them can be al
ways found at moments notice.
Their names are as follows:
j. G. Frank, with G. n. & E. r.
Moses; Bob Ewalt, with Great Bend
Fuel Co.; Gus Schaefer, draymans
Al Mayes, with Moses Implement
house; Joe Shibe, of Shibe & Shel :

By little observation just now you
can spot the men who are useless
burden to the community. When
you see an able bodied young man
loafing around the streets of the city,
with no visible means of support, you
can put it down that he never did
want work, although protesting that
be can find nothing to do. With all
the rush that is now on, and will con-
tinue on for some time, in the harvest
fields, there is no excuse for any able
bodied man saying he can't find work.

ever given in this city by home talent,

the people of Great Bend will be, as
they should be, literally patronized on
this OCCASION.
