COUNTY BOARDS MAY ACT.

The Topeka Advocate and News says
that Attorney General Boyle has rem
dered an opinion which will enable the
commissioners Of the various counties
to advance money to the state commits
sion for the purpose Of making a dis
play at the Omaha exposition. He said
that while there was no law to author
iZe such loan there was none to pro-
hibit 1t, and probably no one would OBJ
ject to any county advancing its quota
when it was reasonably certain that the
legislature at its session next winter
would pay the money back. It is a mat
ter in which the people are greatly in
terested, and the county boards can act
az law unto themselves"
The only question that remains now
with the commissioners of Barber
county is whether they desire that the
county shall be out this amount of
money until the legislature convenes
next year.

On Sunday Sheriff J. B. Gano arrived
from Kansas City with Guy Carlton,
the Elm Mills man who escaped last
summer with lot OF mortgaged pro-
perty and unpaid for goods. Mr.. Carl
ton had successfully secluded himself
at 1909 Madison avenue. Kansas City,
during most of the time since his un-
ceremOnious departure almost a year
ago. He was first heard OF about two
months or more ago by j. S. Baker, Of
Sawyer. Sheriff Gano concluded that
Mr.. Baker would be good man to play
the detective act and accordingly dep
utiZed him. Baker had been in Kan
sas City several days aud by skillfull
work caught Carlton mapping" He
wired Sheriff GanO who Immediately
had requisltion papers issued from
Justice Brady's court. on Governor
Stephens, Of Missouri, and went to
Kansas City and got the prisoner.
Carlton resided in this county only a
few months and DEVOTED his time al
most exclusively to horse dealing. He
is an average oily tongued gentleman
and carried hts gall with him for ready
use in all his transactions. He left
nearly everybody with whom he had
dealings, in debt, when he skipped the
country, but the principal and heaviest
losers were 7. l.. Lindley, of this city,
and Alex Means. of Sawyer. He got
away with good team and set of har-
ness on which Mr.. Lindley held mort
gage and good spring wagon belong
ing to Mr.. Means. OF course number
of our business men had accounts
against him but they were not Iecured
by mortgage. Mr.. Carlton expresses
regret for what he has done and pre-.
tends that his conscience is burdened
but all such talk can be taken with q
liberal quantity of salt.
He waived preliminary before Judge
Brady on Monday morning aud has
taken quarters in Barber county q
boarding house to await trial at the
October term Of court. There Is now
no visible escape for him. He will, in
all probability, get job in the state
penitentiary.
While at Kansas City he frequently
related to 1.-THE boys' how he worked

are in order, we would suggest that he
inform his Kansas City chums as to
