Card OF Thanks.

If there is one thing more than an
other in a country newspaper that
seems strangely out of keeping with an
established correct order of things, it
is that Of the ubiquitous "Cards of
Thanks" They are not, and we dis
like to believe, ever were, in good form.
Administration to the wants of the
sick and dying is a sacred duty that it
is almost sacrilege to bring down to
the level of mere exchange of court
estes, and, while it is entirely proper
that thankful feeling on the part Of
sorrowing friends should be enter
tanned and expressed, a pub ic procla-
nation of them is in extremely bad
taste. We suppose our rural brethren
are often placed in positions where a
refusal to publish these notices would
be difficult, but they should at least
give voice to a sentiment that will in
the end do away with the desire to
have them published.-Inland Printer.

Irrigation.
DODGE CITY, KANSAS, Aug Is. 1891.

DODGE CITY, KANSAS, Aug l3, 1894.
The subject of irrigation is one OF
deepest impor to the citizens of ouI
county at the present time, and also to the
entire western portion of our State. We
must either master the situation or abandon
this country. And the problem to be solved
is how can i: be done.
We see that so far the canal project is a
| failure and if it were a success, must be a
mere local affair. We have plan to offer to
| the public, for real and candid reelection and
consideration
1t is for Ford county to purchase sufficient
machinery to thoroughly test and fully de-
velOp whether our county has artesian water
that will flow out on the surface when tapped.
If we find we have such a body of water then
let the county or township, organization
purchase sufficient machinery to sink wells
all over our county on every occupied tract
the machines with all necessary provisions
| for pushing forward the work
| If we find that we have not artesian water
that will flow. then let us throughout the
| county. by our county or township organ
iZation, assist in sinkinga good well, and
| erecting good mill and pump on every
problems that will meet with objections. as
every question has two sides. But we are
| as ready now to meet these questions as we
ever will be- Many may say it will make our
| taxes so heavy it will ruin us. Well are you
| not about ruined, and cannot pay your taxes,
and how much worse would it be if your taxes
were doubled for a while and you had q few
| acres upon which you could raise plenty of
| garden truck, potatoes, fruit, grapes, plums,
cherries-and all sorts of small fruits, and
| also peaches and apples-and have lot Of
| alfalfa for raising pigs.
Think of it. let us act, and act wisely and
ljudiciousiy.
| If we go into this matter and are successful,
| it will be but a short time when Ford county
will be all dotted over with beautiful and
happy homes. If we fail there is very few OF
us that will be worse of than we are now,
| and the time is short when Ford county up

doned to go back 10 its original state only for
some future generation to come. and develop

Violence and Death.
Mrs. VIM. Bunyan Shoots Zoe McE1foy
Through the Aeart.-Says
IL was to Protect the
Chastity Of her
Person.

Last Friday afternoon. at O'Clock
Marion Brown and L. p. Horton. of
Wilburn. were notified to 60 to the Bun
yam place in Mead county, three miles
south west from Wilburn, as a bloody
tragedy had taken place there.
They went and found the place APP
parentiy deserted. There was not a
person to be found in the house. furniture
and things in the house were in great
disorder. and blood showed signs of a
fearful tragedy. Brown and Horton
searched about the premises, and found
a winchester rifle between the house and
shed. In the shed in a kneeling position,
his face buried in his hands. was also
found the dead body of Joseph McElroy.
Two bullet wounds in the brest showed
that the death dealing messenger must
have passed through the victims heart
and caused life to end very suddenly.
Mrs. Bunyan, who appeared in hay
camp half mile from the scene of the
tragedy, gave the following account OF
the killing: She said while Mr.. Bunyan
was absent in Dodge City Joe McElroy
came and tried to take advantage of her.
She resisted until exhausted, then told
him to 90 out and look, as she heard
some one coming. He went out, and
Mrs. Bunyan locked the door. On his
return he found the door fast and at
tempted to break it with a hammer.
Then she unbolted the door and told him
if he came in she would kill him.
He replied that she would not kill him.
That at any rate she had nothing to kill
with, whereupOn he proceeded to open
the door. She then fired. He said,
''Oh N.Y." and ran to the shed. Fearing
he had gone t. the shed for gun and
would return and murder her, as she
could not know how bad he was hurt,
the lady ran after him. On reaching the
shed door she espied him inside in a
kneeling position and shot at him. Then
stepping around him, she shot again.
After the shooting Mrs. Bunyan went
half mile to hay camp and fell pros
trate. Some of those who have seen her
since say she talked incOherently like an
insane person.
A cOrOner's inquest was held, resulting
in acquittal of Mrs. Bunyan.
Mr.. Joseph McElroy was single man
twenty mine years of age. He had been
living in the community nine years, and
the last five years made his home with
the Bunyaus who regarded him as a
brother. He was in fact highly esteemed
by the entire community. He' worked
severa! months for Capt. j. II. Churchill,
on the Zimmerman homestead, and was
favOrably known by many of our citizens.
who cannot believe him guilty of at
to outrage the lady.
Mrs. Bunyan being also very highly
no one believes she would, in
her right mind. without desperate prov
Ocation commit the bloody deed Hence
those who believe in McElroy's inno-
cence think Mrs. Bunyan must have gone
crazy and did the killing under the hal
lucination that Joe wanted to outrage
her.
