County Attorney Mitchell is making
il rather uncomfortable for the joint
business. Last Saturday he Issued pa
pers fer JAS. Newkirk. which Sheriff
Beeson and Waldo TarboX promptly
served. by arresting Jas. Newark and
capturing trb full of liquor refresh
ments from room over the Delmonico.
Mr.. Newkirk gave bond to appear at the
district court, was released, and went
back into business at the old stand. Last
"Wednesday another warrant brought
the same prisoner. and another tub full
of wet merchandise. Even this did not
suppress the jointist. as he again gave
bail. and once more resumed his dispens-
ing fire water. To-day we Learn the Of
ficers are after him on another count.
County Attorney Mitchell says he has
sworn to enforce all laws. and will ar
rest man for running joint just as
quick as for stealing horse. He COM
mends Sheriff Beeson and Under Sheriff
Tarbox for the prompt and fearless man
ner in which they execute warrants
placed in their hands. Mr.. Mitchell says
he will not let up until all laws of the
land are fully enforced.

ship twenty-eight, range twenty-five for
$3.50 to Mary E. Weston. The place is
but slightly improved, but ThOs. Weston
and family will move on to it, and make
a home. This transaction recalls the
fact that a man named Shook used to
live there and hold down this particular
claim. He settled on it. as most new
settlers have done, for the purpose of
proving up, selling for what he could get
and then seeking ''greener fields and
pastures new" Mr.. Shook fingered
around in this county three years. He
did not stay on the place very much. In
fact, only broke ont fifteen acres of the
land during all the time he was here.
In the meantime he arranged for loan
of $500. out of which he paid sl.25 per
acre to the government, eaving 1915.
Then he made deed to the loan company
for S25.e0 more aud went back east to
A'his wife's people," and doubtless told
them what GOd-fOrsakeE country this
was. how lucky he was not to starve to
death, etc. Now the loan company has
sold the land for a profit of S425.O0, and
the purchaser has secured great bar
gain at that, as the land is worth at least
$1,000.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY II. 1893.

The little sketch which appeared in
this paper last week concerning "A war
dance had most surprising effect on
our esteemed contemporaries. Bro.
Pettyjohn devoted nearly the whole of
his valuable space TO the editor OF this
apper. The leader was a classical trea-
tise on an embryo bovine. 1t Is Bro.
Pettyiohn's masterpiece. and will doubt
less be handed down to future ages as
an example of belles-letters, to round
off the literary archives of the 10Th GEN.
fury.
LATER:-A constant reader" of Bro.
PettyjOhn's paper just dropped into our
sanctum and brutally remarked that the
calf itself could have gotten upa better
article than the bovine story above re-
ferred to. 1t does seem as though some
people can't appreciate high order of
classical literature when they meet it
face to face.
Bro. Petition takes the matter very
seriously to heart. He thinks the theat-
rical companies appropriate and set
apart some fifteen or twenty compliment
tary tickets to lavish On the newspapers
of Dodge City, and he intends to keep
on kicking till he gets his share. In
support of this claim he refers to Alba
Haywood as an example. The
fact is Manager Pearce could not get
this company except by the payment of
a stipulated sum, which was about fif-
teen dollars more than net receipts from
sale of tickets, though the house was
well filled on that occasion. In other
words. Mr.. Pearce paid that amount
from his own pocket in order to give
patrons of the Dodge City opera house a
chance to witness an unusually fine en-
entertainment. Mr.. Haywood had no
voice in the distribution of compliment
tary tickets. If Alba wanted Bro. Petil-
Ion to see the show and exercise his
talent as dramatic critic in giving him
pointers how to act his part properly, it
would be necessary for him to purchase
the necessary pasteboards from Manager
Pearce.
From the frantic manner of our liter
AIRY brethern, we presume they will keep
on roaring till they get free tickets or
burst up the opera business in Dodge
City.
