Roadmaster Hendestrom is recover
ing nicely from the injuries he received
near Dillon last week. He was fear
fully bruised, but fortunately no inter
nal or very serious wounds were sus-
tained.-Gypsum Advocate.
Last week horse thieves stole white
mare belonging to Lee Dougan and a
bay mare the property of Henry Van
Nest. Mr.. Van Nest and Harry Snave-
ley put out after the thieves and cap
tured two of them about twenty miles
northwest of here. The fellows were
well armed but offered no serious re-
sistance. The horses were recovered

the boys are to be congratulated.

son Burdette to Hoisington to have an

.strumped" the business with the very
best of "cards''-and will rake in the
pot''-as a matter of course.
The situation with Our democrats
then may be summed up as follows:
We will vote the complete state dem
ocratic ticket because il is our duty as
democrats and loyal citizens of Kansas
to do so. We will vote for Jrery Simp-
son because he will be a better repre-
sentative in congress, from democratic
stand point than would Mr.. Long.
We will vote for the democratic
county candidates because they are the
best qualified, the most trustworthy
and are democrats.
When we have done this we will
have done our full duty so far as this
election is concerned, and the coming
years will prove that our course was
| justified by the circumstances and en-
dorsed by the people of both state and
nation,

A Plain UnYarnished Tale.

A man went into a store in a neigh
boring town and asked if he could rest
four or five hours. The proprietor. who
had just found nest of newborn mice
in the coffee grinder, told him he could
and then asked him why he didn't go
to the hotel? The man replied: II am
suffering from nervous prOstration, ,and
the doctor said to get quiet place to
rest, and 1 see you don't advertise. I
knew that 1 couldn't find a quieter
place." And with that he settled back
in his chair and watched the swallows
build nest in the cheese case.-Holy-
rood Sum

BARTON county does not want a
man for county attorney who puts his
property in his wife's name to get out
of paying his debts; who has been
mixed up in many unsayory muddles
in the past; who poses as an influential
and model member of the church in
Great Bend and drinks and CANDLES in
Ellinwood and Hutchinson, A vote
for Jim Clarke will not be vote for
> such man.

''UNDER the Mckinley law eggs
were worth 10 cents a dozen," shouted
Hoch in his alleged speech here the
other night, and as the statement fell
with dull, sickening thud among the
empty benches an old farmer, who had
that afternoon received II cents per
dozen for eggs, blessed his lucky stars
that bill McKinley's law had been
repealed LA Crosse Chieftain.

'SAY CY," said Banker Morrill, to
his chairman, "this making free silver

JOHN BENIENT is the only candidate
before the people this fall for the Office
of probate judge who is fully competent
to fill the Office. A careful conSidera-
tion for the duties we owe the widows
and orphans of Barton county ought to
cause every voter to cast his ballot
for John Bement.

HERE are some invincible facts:
Hogs, corn, cattle and wool are higher
than when the democrats went into
power, while nearly all manner of
wearing apparel and food products are
cheaper. How are the republicans
going to reconcile themselves to these
facts?-Elllnwood Advocate.

WATER means wealth. We want
both. Let us work for irrigation as in
dustriously as we work for our political
parties and we will make this great
Arkansas valley to blossom like the
rose. The people are awake, let no
man be permitted TO go to sleep.

The New York republicans denounce
the income tax as a tax on prosperity.
What can bear taxation better than
prosperity? Certainly not toll and pow
erty which the republicans have been
taxing for the benefit of the prosper
ous.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1894-10-11

DESPERATE indeed is the condition
of republicans in Kansas, if one is to
judge by the hurcuiean efforts that
party is making to capture the state
election this fall. And the populists
are about as desperate, so far as their
state ticket goes. The way to free the
state from the rule of either of those
two parties is to vote the ticket headed
by David Overmyer. and we believe
that there are many thousands of con-
servative men who are going to do just
that thing.

WHILE republican editors and
stump speakers are telling on the one
hand how the new democratic tariff is
running the country. they are telling
on the other hand how business is i'm
proving. The two stories do not agree
very well but it is the best the managers
can do, and in fact .hey are about as
consistent upon this as upon the silver
question.-Topeka Advocate.

THE democratic county candidates
have been ont in the field the past week
and find plenty of announcements on
every hand. They are all gentlemen
whose personality commends them to
everYone; and the conservative and
careful voters, regardless of party. will
support them at the coming election.

The St. Louis Republic is inclined
to be facetious at the expense of a Kan
sas production. 1t says: when Judge
Peffer first entered the senate, there
was disposition to smile at him as an
unsophisticated crank. Since he has
foisted nearly his whole supply of sons
and daughters upon the salary list and
has established coy relations with the
Sugar Trust, the senators with one
voice proclaim: He is truly one of US,
a senator by election, habit and incli-
nation Ingalls, seat is not vacant"
JERRY SIMPSON does not talk for
the equal suffrage amendment, and
those papers that say he does deliber-
ately lie in order to try and prejudice
democrats against him. In his speech
at Great Bend last Friday Jerry said:
LAS to my personal vote, it will be for
the amendment; for had it not been
for the care and attention of loving
wife [ would not be here to talk to you
today. AS to the suffrage question. /

ladies have suffered enough But |
