The Council Grove Republican de
nounces the ballot law in the follow.
ing: 'The next legislature should
certainly amend the Australian ballot
law. By splitting up into two alleg-
ed parties and calling one populist
election judge populist and another
a democrat. the pops secured two
judges to the republicans one in
every election precinct in the state.
This is manifestly unfair. In this
county this fall one candidates name
was on three of the four tickets of
the ballot. By fling an Independent
nomination he subjected the county
to the expense OF the extra ballot yet
this candidate was not elected. A
law that assumes a man can belong

This Is the season when the newspaper
of western Kansas commence to warn the
Farmers Of the danger Of prairie fires.
While these fires are still common In
the-west, they no loager are the bosoms
of destruetiOn which In former days
swept over areas Is large % some states,
leaving death and ruin in their path. The
grsateet prairie fire known In Kansas was
in the year 1869. says the Kansas City
Journal, and it was wantonly Get by an
officer of the United States government.
This officer is now in war, his name was
more frequently in the papers than any
other. He was, and lie, one Of the chiefs
Of the subsistence department, and in
the beef Investigations he was very
prominent. One day in 1869 he and a
party of officers from Fort Hays were
returning from wild turkey hunt in the
can0ns Of the Saline. The wind was
blowing q hurriance, and when a stop
was made OH the high prairie some ten
miles north Of Hays this officer delibe-
rately touched a match to the dry, crisp
grass in order to make spectacle. When
the other officers saw what he was about
to do they made desperate effort to stop
him, but the deed had been done and the
red flames wero reeling across the prairie
like. frightened antelope. That fire
swept from where it had been started
clear across Kansas into what is now
Oklahoma. The streams and roads Of
fered no obstacles whatever. While 60
ing south it also turned to the east, and
left = trail Of ruin across Rice, Reno,
Kin9man, Harper and other counties.
Thousands of settlers were burned out,
losing not only their houses and feed. but
also their horses and cattle. II the man
who se: that fire bad been known to the
settlers all the troops on the plains would
not have been enough to stay their
vengeance. As it was he suffered re-
morse beyond description. When the
officers at Hays would bring him papers
telling Of the damage done he would
groan and curse himself roundly. he
left Hays for some ether post in the fol-
lowing year, and 90 far as We know, bis
name has never been connected with the
gigantic prairie fire Of 1869.

They Squared Accounts Later.
Thomas L. Burford, q well known
stock dealer of Northern Missouri, who
was in Macon :last week on business, re-
lated to local newspaper man curious
Circumstance illustrating the ''getting
even spirit among animals. He pur-
chased!a herd of eighty.two steers from a
Putnam breeder and had them driven to
his stock farm in Schuyler county. The
route was about twenty miles.
Among the bunch was little animal
whose horns had not been reduced suf-
ficently to keep him out Of mischief. He
would dart around the rest of the drove,
lab his horns into the TANKS of his COM
panions and get away before the return
blow could be inflicted. He made the
journey miserable for his less active fell
low-travelers and when they reached
Mr.. Buford's they had deadly grugde
laid up against their playful companion.
In the first lot the herd was driven into
w 10 "a 0tAAA ROAOs NO uAASOuAS VVAo
animal was the first to reach it, but
soon the whole drove arrived, and
struggled for place at the water side.
A large, black animal pressed In slowly
behind the little fellow, put his head
under him and gently tipped him over in
the pond, which was about fifteen feet
deep in the center. The surprised steer
gave snort of defiance and struggled to
reach tho bank, but on every side he met
unfriendly heads and was forced back
into the water. After half hours ex-
ertion, he sank down exhausted and the
water closed over him. The herd then
left the pond and walked leisurely dewn
into the pasture. The owner was out
just $50.
