MRS. RILEY WANTS DAMAGES
For the Death of Her Husband.
santa Ee Brak eman

Guthrie, Q. T, March 3.-Mrs. Lizzie
Riley has filed suit in the district court
at Winfield, Kan. asking for $1,000 dam
ages from the Santa Fe company for the
death of her husband who was killed near
Asp. Q. T., last July. Riley was, al the
time of his death, employed as a brake
man on the road and lived at POnca City.
Before becoming a brakeman Riley was
in charge of a section al White Eagle.
In July ne was working on a ballast
train which was putting rock ballast on
the road between Arkansas City and
Guthrie At Asp, as the train was run
ming backwards, a hand car loaded with
negro laborers was discovered on the
track n short distance from the train
and would have been run over in few
seconds. The conductor told Riley to give
the engineer the emergency signal to
stop. which he did. The sudden stopping
Of the train pulled out drawhead and
Riley was thrown under the cars and in
stantly killed. Now Mrs Riley asks for
Sl0090 damages from the company for
causing the death of her husband The
case viii be heard at the next term Of
the district court.

Guthrie, Q. T., March 3.-No one was
hurt in the school building which was
struck by the wind storm which swept
over oklahoma Tuesday. The Weather
ford Republican gives the following ac-
count of the matter: In last TUESDAYS
storm no damage has been reported to
buildings except the Mennonite school
house. five miles southwest of this city.
1t was moved about fourteen feet off its
foundation, without. however, being
turned over. The school was in session.

turned over there would have been I'M
doubtedly many lives lost, and the place
Of shelter would have proved an instru-
ment Of death AS it was. no one in the
building was even hurt and nothing dam
aged. not even the stovepipe unjointed
The parties with their teams seeking
shelter. behind the building did not fare
so well. J. d. Goddard of Berlin found
that he had his left foot under the
building when IL lit. and he can't get
along without a crutch since. his foot
being considerably bruised. 4 horse be-

TOM FERGUSON'S PARDON FIGHT
says the Place to Show Mercy, LII Any
Is on the Trial.

Guthrie, o. r., March 3.-For some
months the Watonga Republican has
been making a fight on the system by
which pardons are granted in Oklahoma.
That paper takes the judges and prose-
cutting attorneys to task for pelng SO
versatile in being ready 10 sign petitions
for pardons, declaring: There has been
considerable talk in this county over the
pardons of Governor Barnes in the case
of Bert Welty and Ed Haster. The editor
of this paper was in the territorial sec
retary's office one day last week and eX-
amined all the papers in number OF
cases in which Governor Barnes has
granted a pardon AS we previously
stated, the influential citizen is in evi-
dence all along the line. There are let
tiers and petitions without end, signed by
the influential citizen In the Welty
case a great many citizens signed the pc
tition. In the Haster case there was
strong influence from Missouri friends
and relatives and also a letter signed by
County Attorney Campbell. and also
Judge Tarsney, asking pardon for Has
ter. The governor says that it was upon
the representations made in Haster's be-
half that he granted the pardon. 1t sim
ply demonstrates what this paper has
said before, that the governor of state
or territory acts upon the case as it
comes before him on paper, without
knowing the conditions that exist as the
people know them in the vicinity in which
a crime is committed and a criminal is
convicted. When pardon is asked of
governor, the only evidence which he has
is on the paper before him. If the petit
toners are good citizens, and the letters
filed are from good citizens, the only rea-
sonable conclusion is that the pardon
will be granted. We took pains to look
over the papers in the pardons made by
Governor Barnes and found that the
names of county attorneys who prosecut-
ed the cases and the names of the judges
who tried them were almost always at
tached to the petitions that asked for
their pardons. This Is not right. 1t Is
wrong. If a Judge thinks that jury's
verdict is too severe for the offense, ne
should set it aside and try it over. A
county attorney should temper his prose-
euticn to the offense. but when conVic-
ton is secured the punishment should De
adequate to the offense, and should SUCK

But MOI IN VA|N
Long Wait of Mr.. Martinez of
Oklahoma Is Rewarded.
ONCE STOLEN BY INDIANS
He Has Always Tried to Dis
cover His Family History.

Guthrie. o. T, March Substances OF
stolen children among the Indians outside
Of fiction are rare The one most COM
monty quoted in Oklahoma is that OF
Quanah Parkers mother. The Watonga
Republican. in telling of another, recounts
how long a quest has apparently resulted
In success. That paper says: There
lives near Watonga strange character
He is a Mexican by the name of Dolores
Martinez, but is known among the IN
dams, with whom his life has mostly
heen spent, as Lone Bear. When a chlld
Martinez was stolen from his parents by
the CHEYENNE Indians. He grew 10 man
hood having adopted their habits. Bur
during all of these years the Lone Bear
has had a desire to find his people. He
has written letters to places in all parts
Of old and New Mexico but without
avail. Many of his letters would come
back to him marked unclaimed. For
several years past he has been coming to
the Watonga postoffice inquiring for the
letter that never came The old man
would step up to the window week after
week, month after month, and year after
year and call for letter for Martinez, or
Lone Bear but would always turn away
with a look of disappointment. One day
last week, the long-looked-for letter
came. 1t was from relative in New
Mexico. who is in position to give Lone
Bear history of his family, and the ad-
dress Of those still living who might be
interested in him. A lonely lot has been
the life of this old man. Ever longing
for something-he knew not what. with
vague memories Of the dim past rising
before him like a dream and then van
fishing like heeting shadows, this man,
through all Of these years, has cherished
a fond hope Of some day finding out
something about his people, and his child
hood home"
