WILL LOSE HER HOME
Sheriff Cone is After the House of the
Great Orator

And, after all, what is greatness? The
world has spoken of a Wichita woman.
She has made statesmen tremble and
demagogues shiver. she has met every
attack and has always kept her enemies
at bay. She has genius to fight the
greater men of the age, but no genius
10 fight the smaller men. When the
governor of a great state tried to remove
her from an office she raised 10 her full
height and conquered him. What will
she 90 with the sheriff when ne comes
around? That is a question for Mrs
Mary Ellen Lease TO Solve. The sheriff.
il appears. is on her trail and there is
no doubt of the result. She is TO be
evicted according 10 the legal notice is

lows:

Does this mean that the most conspic-

be driven out OF the house that shelters

Her enemies say she has grown rich. |

A Card.
To the Editor o. the Eag,e.


My attention has been called to an stem
published in en- issue of the Daily Eagle
OF recent date and which has been ex-
tensively copied by the papers in south
western Kansas and Oklahoma to the
effect that | was a cattle baron and the
owner of 5000 head OF cattle. and that
many times in my life L had owned more
than twice that many. While L would
esteem such a favorable mention OF nv
success in business compliment were
the facts such as ID justify the state
rent Yet as there is no foundation in
truth FOR IL. and as my holdings in the
stock line are. and always have been ex-
ceedingly moderate. and as no extraor-
binary luck has at any time attended my
efforts in that business. l desire TO cor
rect the erroneous impression that might
have been created by the publication OF
the aforesaid statement. Yours respect
fully, BEN GARLAND.
