IN THE TOLLS.

James Ramsey of Galena was ar
rested by Deputy United States
Marshal John Jones at Joplin on
Wednesday of this week and
brought before United States Com
missioner Daniels. Ramsey is
charged with impersonating an OFF,
Ger. He pretended to be deputy
United States marshal by the name
of Jones and in personal appear
ance there is striking resemblance
between the defendant and our fa-
vorite deputy. Ramsey dresses
more in conformity with civilized
usages and is rather better looking,
otherwise he would readily be mis-
taken for Jones of Baxter.
Ramsey will have a preliminary
hearing before Commissioner DAN
iels Wednesday.

The newspaper gang of this coun-
ty at last have been recognized. In
small way, it is true, yet recog-
nizcd. 1t Impossible, and perhaps
very probable, that il the Demo-
Gratis of this county were in posi-
ton to name the next county clerk,
our young friend, Charley Smith,
the Junior editor of the Baxter
Springs NEWS, would have had a
scramble to get the nomination for
that Office. Being so largely in the
minority, however, the Democrats
concluded that one newspaper man
on the ticket would not materially
injure Democratic prospects. The
Advocate extends cougratulations
to our young friend of the News.
He will not be elected county clerk,
because his party for four or five
years has been out of business in
Cherokee county and is in no con-
dition this year TO hope for success,
but the time may come, as strange
things happen in Kansas politics,
when Democracy may be on par
again, and If that time should come,

who have been faithful all along

THE DEr1OCRATs NOMINATE.

The Cherokee County Democratic
Convention was held mt Columbus
last Saturday. There was larger
attendance of Democrats present
than at any convention of that party
held in this county for years. c. A.
Gibbs of Hallowell was chosen tenn
porary chairman and N. 7. Allison
of Columbus temporary secretary.
The various committees were ap-
pointed, after which the convention
adjourned until o'clock in order TO
give the committees time to report
The committee on permanent or
ganization reported recommending
that the temporary organization be
made permanent and the report
was adopted. There was some dis
cussion over the report of the com
mittee on resolutions, but soon the
Democratic ship struck smooth
water again and the following tick
ct was nominated:
For County Treasurer-A. J. Weir
of Weir City.
For Sheriif-James Chew of Bax-
ter Springs.
For Register of Deeds-Richard

--N. II. Eastman of Garden town
ship.
The central committeeman for the
various townships aud wards we're
then chosen. For the first ward oi
Baxter Springs c. \. Childs was
chosen and for the second ward W.
NJ. Gill.
The various candidates went into
the fight without having made any
promises and it is pretty safe 10 as
sert that when the ballots are
counted the Democrats will be
found 10 have secured good big
share of them.

Deputy L. 5. Marshal John Jones
came over from Baxter Springs last
evening aud returned with two of.
Tenders picked up here. Onc was
Jim Ramsey, who claimed that he
is "a victim of circumstances. Ii
seems that about six weeks ago
Ramsey was nj Galena. where lie
stopped man with team, claim
ing that the team was stolen and
that lie, being L. S. officer. would
take charge of the outfit. The own
er of the team is named Sharp and
he refused to go with Ramsey. but
allowed him to take charge of the
team until Marshal Rains could he
found, when Sharp convinced the
city official that The animals were
his, aud Rains knowing that Ram
sey was not an officer, gave up the
property to the man who was stop
ped by the oi1icious Ramsey. The
story reached Marshal Jones' Of
Baxter. and he came over after Mr..
Ramsey for impcrsonating an oili-
Ger. Ramsey claimed that he had
a card containing Il description of
a stolen team and that he thought
the horses driven by Sharp were the
ones. The Kansas official also rc.
turned with Ben Turner, a colo'e |
youth arrested last evening by Dep.
uty Marshal Doherty. Turner is
wanted for assault committed ut
Baxter last June.-Wednesday's
