Concerning the Liquor Business

Recently, as was stated In the
fered to the liquor ordinance max ing
the punishment fine or Jail sem
tence or both such fine and impris-
onment, and in addition ii was pro-
posed 90 require any person convicted
OF the violation of the ordinance to
enter into a bond to the city In the
sum of at least $4,000 with securities
to be approved by the Police Judge
that such person would not again
engage in the liquor traffic within
the city of lola. This bond idea was
first suggested and put in operation
ny the county attorney of Bourbon
county which received the approval
of both the district court and the
court of appeals. 1t has been FREE
guently asserted that the prohibitory
law itself cannot be enforced and was
not being enforced in FIT. Scott or
Bourbon county, and this was one OF
the reasons urged against the pro-
posed amendment. In order to as
certain the facts the City Attorney
wrote to the County Attorney oi
Bourbon county and this morning re.
ceived the following reply which
speaks for itself

AN UP-To-DATE FIGURING MILL.
w. Z. Daals & Co. Add New 1achinery and
Make Their FIGURING Mill a Modei
OF Its Kind

Kansae lie rapidly coming to the
front "a a great wheat country and
1t naturally follows that she is also
becominga great -four country. There
lis just as much advantage ito the
Kansap In Transforming the surplus
wheat into flour and shipping that
as there is In changing corn into
hogs for the market and among those
who recognize that fact is the w. E.
Davis d. Co. milling firm.
This firm has operated a water
mill on the Neosho since "befo' de
wah" and consequently 10 universal
iy known. They have recently COM
pleted improvements of their mill
both as to capacity and the quality
of their output which deserve notice
The work has been done under the
personal supervision of Mr.. w. K.
Robertson, q mill-wright of many
years experience now in the employ of
the Barnard Machine Co. ofEnterprise
Kans., a branch Of the same company
y
put In Is of the very latest improved
pattern and gives the mill as good
facilities for making the best grade
of flour az any mill in the country.
The additions to the machinery
consist briefly as follows: The first
floor is the grinding floor. Here were
put in -four douOle stands of Barnard
d Lease roller mills and one Barnard
& Lease milling separator.
The second floor is used entirely
for storage.
The third floor has one No Hag-
enmacher plansifter of the Barnard u
Lease pattern; one Barnard d Lease
centrifugal reel; one Great Western
hour dresser; one Geo. T, Smith No.
middliug purifier.
In the basement there is one b. d
L.. close scOurer and one Western
corn shelter and all the necessary
pulley sporting to drive and feed the
machines above.
Mr. Robertson put in the new ma
chimes aud then -tRyed until he had
tested their work and he was very
much pleased with the quality of the
flour turned out, pronouncing it a
very high grade aud quality. The
brands manufactured by the Davis
Go, are now four in Number: "Morp-
Jug Glooy," Peerless" STANDARD
and Boss" which rank in the order
given
The capacity of the mills is now in
the neigh borhood of seventy-tive bar
rels daily and the home made flour
ought TO fud ready market in

To Vote Bonds For Prospecting.

From the IT Scott Tribune.
The Bronson people who have been
Interested in prospecting in Bour-
bon county for natural gas have
abandoned the idea of drilling u
single well at Bronson, though
they have raised the money for
that purpose. They have investi-
gated the allen county fields and find
that out of over thirty holes they have
but ten gas wells. They are of the
opinion that the sinking of one well
unless they should happen to strike a
gas pocket, would discourage the peo-
pie and cause q cessation OF prospect
ing.
A new scheme is not only suggested
by them but Is being agitated. IL Is
for the county torote about SOS, 900 OF
bonds for the sinking of % 1000 feet
holes, equally divided in the different
townships. This, It Is argued, would
certainly satisfy everybody as to there
being gas in the county. The BELIEF
prevails among Bronson's citizens
who have Investigated, that we have
fully as much gas here as In Allen
county, and many In 1T. Scott are Of
the same conviction.
The idea Ia to vote upon the bond
question at this falls election, 1t ia
said com IN issioners Conner and Combs
have expressed willingness to sub
INIT the proposition.

An Uptown Telegraph Office.

The move which was started some
time ago TO have the Western Union
Company put in an uptown tee
graph Office has been quietly carried
along by various parties and last
night the city council passed an or
dinance granting the use of the
streets of the city for the line. Just
where the Office will be located is
not yet definitely settled, but 1t will
be in some centrally located and con-
venient point.
The advantage of this change is
apparent to all, as an office which q
man can reach in a minute beats one
half mile away all to pieces. There
are several locations under discus
sion, none of which have been detin-
itely decided upon. The change has
been recommended by one of the
Western Union people in authority
and there is little doubt that the up
town Office is an assured thing. Mr.
II. n, Funk will probably have
charge of the new office, and his long
experience in the business together
with his pleasant address will doubt.
less make the office both popular and
profitable.

A KATY CROSS ROAD.
Latisrpe and 1oran Have 1t All Figured Out
That New Line Is Going in.

wv Wood, real estate agent. has shown us
a letter written by Mr.. 0. G. Wales. of Karsas
City. Mo, to Postmaster Coe, in which the
writer makes several inquiries about our town.
He wants to know about our town. He wants
to know about our natural resources-espec-
tally our natural gss-snd what inducements
we can offer for the location Of manufacturing
establishments. Also, inquiries as to whether
we desire a cross railroad, and II so, which
would be the better point for 1t to start from
Carlyle or Bsyard.
OF course we want another railroad and we
expect to get It too pretty soon We also would
greatly prefer Baysrd to Carlyle as a starting
point Our new snelter is now almost ready to
start up, and when 1t does get In full blast will
ship In from eight to ten carloads Of ore, and
send out four or fl We carloads of spelter every
twenty-four hours. -LdHdrpe News.
And in all the foregoing there is
never q word about LsHarpe's little
struggling suburb, lola. The Moran
Herald jumps in with the following
comment and she also turns the frigid
scapula upon the county seat.
There is no question but what LaHarpe can
very soon command another railroad, and there
is NO reason why the starting point should not
be Moran in preference to either OF the places
mentioned by the Neios. 1t would be the most
sensible thing for the NJ, X. Il 7. to construct a
parallel road to the Mo- Pac from Moran to La.
Harpe aud other southwesterly points The
output of the smelters at LaHarpe is going to
be no small thing, aud to allow one railroad to
handle all the freight from those factories is
without reason. Some company is going to
build cross railroad at LaHarpe and why not
The Katy" with Moran n division point?
There is adequate sidetrack already here. be.
sides the turning table which we also have that
would be an essential facility for the turning Of
engines IN the transportation of all traffic that
would be forwarded from that source.
The Hcrdid don't pretend to be a dictator for
railroad corporations but If the v Z. u T. de-
sres to secure whole lot of traffic tue above is
worth considering
While the REGISTER hopes that
the road may be built, it feels com
PEELED to state that there are letters
ON file in lola from the Katy officials,
in which they state positively that no
eXtentions will he made during '0S.
The proper thing therefore is to open
up the campaign OF '00 and may sue.

A Runaway Accident.

This morning the young roadster OF
John Ireland's ran away aud tore up
the buggy and threw out the occu-
pants, Mr.. Ireland, Mr.. Buchanan
and the little Kirby boy. None OF
them were dangerously hurt but all
were badly bruised.
The accident occurred near Piqua,
to which point they had driven for a
pleasure drive. Mr.. Ireland has been
in the habit of driving out with Mr..
Buchanan, who is in poor health. but
this morning for the first time drove
the young horse. All went well until
they had come to the Missouri Pacific
crossing mile east of Piqus, on the
home trip. The horse became I'M
manageable and ran the buggy into
the ditch, upsetting the rig. Mr.. Ire
land fell on his lett cheek and sus.
tanned q very severe bruise on his
cheek bone and on his hand. He was
Unconscious for half an hour and re.
members nothing of the accident. Mr..
Buchanan's injuries consist of 3
wound above his eyes. The little
Kirby boy has swollen lip as the
result of his fall. Mr.. Marion Preston
picked up the party and brought
them to town where their injuries
were attended to by DR.. Fulton.
Ii was a very distressing accident
and might easily prove serious on ac-
count of the age of the men, but every.
body hopes that such will not be the
case.
