ST. Joseph News: A part OF the election
IN Sedgw,ck county didn't go TO sui,
Marsh Murdoch. and he refused to be
consoled-
Kansas City Journal; 1t Is said Marsh
Murdock is backing out of the anti-Pro-
hsbstion fight. but the Eagle Is YET to be
heard from.
Troy Chief: Word was recently sent
abroad that Wichita had subterranean
lake. II was. a typographical error. II
should have been fake.
Kansas City Journal: Colonel Marsh
Murdoch and his Eagle are as quiet and
humble since the election as IL they had
both been lifelong Democrats.
Caldwell News: The Wichita Eagle
claims that It's compositors have brains.
This VIII be surprise to many people
who now and then try to read the Eagle
Wichita man was jailed for refusing TO
drink beer Is about the most sensational
thing sent out from the Windy Wonder
this year.
Kansas CITY Star: Rudolph Hatfield
has taken the road with a lecture which
he calls The Supremacy of Law" He
wrote it in Wichita, but has not ventured
TO spring it there
Lawrence Journal: That 600 cavalry
horse business sent out from Wichita has
travelled as far as Leavenworth. and has
grown to be 5000. II is claimed that II
was fake in the first place
Leavenworth Times: The story that q
Wichita man has been sent to jail for re-
fusfng TO drink a glass OF beer is likely to
start strong tide of Weary willies mean
dering toward the prosecuted princess.
New York World: A Kansas man has
been committed for contempt in refusing
TO taste beer in court. Most OF his fellow
men w!ll-1ook upon him as being justly
punished for despising an opportunity.
Lawrence Journal: Wichita judge
sent man to jail because he refused TO
take a drink Of beer when orered to do
so. A man who refuses to drink has no
rights that Wichita people are bound to

Topeka Co-Operator: That judge over at

secured one conviction for selling liquor
at Wichita Now watch Marsh Murdock's
whiskers turn a shade redder as he tweaks
the Eagles tail-feathers till that bird
sends up a scream that can be heard all
over Kansas.
Lawrence Journal: The Wichita Eagle
is as mum ON Prob; bftion as though there
was no such thing this side of the At
lantic. What has come over the spirit Of
ITS dream? Has It given UP the fight, or
has it won It? The Eagle ought to take
a day OFF and explain.
Emporfa Republican: Mrs. Lease. who
was about to drop out of sight, has saved
herself by advising her husband, who is
a druggist. 10 resist the payment Of the
SO cent fee for the maintenance of the
mia hoard IN tho or,,ur5
law is unconstitutional This is the first
time that Mrs Lease has been compelled
10 work the old man for advertising pur-
poses.
Cincinnati Ttmes-Star: The Marlbor-
ough wedding cost just ss40,720 OF this
the duke himself spent only $500. II we
had the title We could have made pretty
good figure Observation-Disclosures Eagle.
With pretty figure TO sgin with WHAT'S
to hinder the Kansas edi.6r from buying
a title as other beauties do? 1t would be
a rather nice ornament to hang in the
room.
Enid Wave: 1t Is reported that "Old !
Tom Wampler' is now general of one OF I
the Cuban armies under an assumed name. !
The Wichita Eagle typesetting machines 4
spoke of Cuban general by the name OF ,
i Nentess SSsIaoni AoIn Aoin Aoin Aoin,"
n yesterdays issue. which translated INTO I
En- glish means, "Jackass Assifiedity Roar 4
Roar Roar Roar" Tom Is the general /
referred to, sure: there can certainly be 1
10 mistake on the roar.
Marion Record: We hope IL Is true that \
Colonel Marsh Murdoch has abandoned 4
lis fight 'gainst the enforcement of the /
pT'ohibdtory law. Somehow or other, We
lever could believe chat Marsh Murdoch
vas in harmony with his own best jude-
neIt and real nature in the silly struggle
n which he has been engaged. Aside
rom its abominable foolishness on this
subject the Eagle has been a splendid
'aper. Its leading editorials are ably
written, It's editorial paragraphs are ex-
eedlngiy bright, and its news rivals the
biggest Kansas City papers. But 1t has
zen weak and mean and unworthy of
tseif in regard 20 Prohsbition and Us en-
orcement- We hope II r. true that the
>olonel has decided TO quiz.
