The individual who believes that
people do not read a newspaper does
not need to waste any of his valuable
time in trying to get US into his way of
thinking because he can't do it. We
went through an experience last week
which makes it impossible for US to
think that way. Our paper contained
several items which did not sound
right to some parties who read them
and the result was that we had as many
callers" whom we had no special
"hankering" to meet. And the re-
markable thing Of it is that scarcely
any of these guests are subscribers and
we are still wondering how they got the
news. But we stood our ground and
tried to show them that we only did
what we thought to be right, and WE
convinced some of them and some we
didn't. This week we are better pre-
pared to receive them. We have al
oar guns and dogs and our neighbors
guns and dogs in good trim, and if oul
courage does not fail us we ara ready
for Kentucky argumennt, provided
our assaiiants furnish at least one
quart per capita of the other favorite
and essential Blue Grass instrument OF
warfare. But we d gress; we started
out to say that people read the paper
and we think we have proved it.

S. Y. Eek and G. A. Blackmore were
in from Sharon on Saturday and when
they struck this office they came near
making US feel that we had some i'm
portant business out in the country
that needed our immediate attention.
but We were cornered so that we
couldn't get out and we had to take our
dose. Now these gentlemen were not
so mad as we had feared, but the truth
of the matter is that we had received
calls from several who were on the war
path and we were beginning to feel
''leary." They thought that our state
ment about Sharon's bad boys was a
mistake but after we had introduced
our testimony and rested our case. they
were inclined to say our statement was
not far wrong. But they said that the
township is rid of the bad ones now
and asked US to say that the resident
boys of Sharon township are as good as
any boys in any community. We agree
with them. There are no better boys
anywhere than the the sons of the sub
stantial citizens of Sharon township, but
the people over there have been a little
unfortunate in having been afflicted
with few undesirable characters.

The trial of Herbert Tomlinson
" Inch was TO have taken place in pro-
bate court on Saturday was dropped.
Miss Rose 2. Thrall, district superin-
tendent Of the Kansas Children 'sHome
Society-the institution from which
Mr.. Eek got the boy-was here and
made arrangements with Dial Morris
for the boys's keeping which was fully
satisfactory to all parties concerned.
In this connection we hasten to say that
the statement in our last weeks article
in relation to the boy g theft was mis-
take. We relied upon second party
for this statement and Mr.. Eek informs
us that part of it was a mistake and
without his authority. MIR. Eek says
he could not govern the boy nor keep
him at home. that on several occasions
he had left and had been gone for
weeks before he conld find him, and
that for these reasons he could no long
or keep him. In other respects he says
| Herbert is not so bad and he hopes that
Mr.. Norris wiIlget along nicely with
him.

We are requested by A. l.. Noble to
make correction of last weeks brief
account of the case of Ada NJ. Dobbs
vs.. II. b. Dobbs. Our article said that
the defendant denied the allegation of
his adultery, which statement is wrong
Ill law, though 1t is not strange that one
should be led to the conclusion of de-
NAL, by the wording of the answer.
The answer admits all the plaintiffs
allegation except the allegation of adul-
terry. 1t Is In this languages: Comes
now the defendant in the above entitled
action, and for his answer to the plain
tiff's petition admits all the allegations
therein contained except the allegation
of his adultery" Mr.. Noble was Mrs.

correction be made, at her request.
