onoe OF Reno County.

Judge William Carey who number oil
years ago was member OF the Reno
county bar and was a well known and
respected citizen died at the home Of his
brother-in'law in Chicago some time
last month, At the time quite lengthy
notice Of his illness and story Of his life
was printed in the Chicago Tribune, Of
which the following is apart and has
been handed to us for publication, as he
had relatives and many friends in this
vicinity.
"Mr Carey has served in various pub
lie capacities in different States Of the
West during a life Of over seventy-fve
years, His early career as lawyer be-
gan in Galena, Ill.,, where he was assoc-
ated with L, b, Washburn, After sit.
ting as member Of the Illinois consttu-
tional convention he was appointed
United States District Attorney General
for Utah, In this office he rendered one
of his most distinguished public serv-
ices, conducting the first successful fight
against Mormonism that had been made
ing Utah.
Mr., Carey was born in Turner, Me,
He is the son Of VIM, Carey and grand
son Of DR., Luther Carey both Of whom
were prominent men in Maine. He
first attended school at the Lewiston
Falls Academy where he was leader in
the debates that occupied much atten-
tion in those days. He completed his
studies at the academy in 1851 and went
from there to Portland, where he.studied
law with General Fessenden, He COM
pleted his education at the Yale law
school and was admitted to the bar Of
the supreme court in 1886, The next
year he was invited by L. b. Washburn
of Galena TO assume his law business, as
Mr. Washburn was then about to leave
for Congress, Mr., Carey's first Office
was that Of superintendent Of schools, to
which he was appointed through the in
huence OF J, A. Rawlins later secretary
OF war. He was later chosen to repre-
sent Galcna in the legislature, where he
served as chairman Of the house judi
ciary committee during four sessions.

A Conviction.

The case of the State VS.; John B.
Brooks for unlawful cohabitation with
his little daughter which was mentioned
in former issue Of this paper was tried
in the district court last Saturday and
Monday. The evidence was taken on
Saturday and the case argued to the jury
Monday forenoon. The jury was taken
to the jury room about noon and re-
turned a verdict at about five o'clock,
The verdict was guilty. by those who
heard the case the evidence was consid-
cred to be very strong. There was
little or no evidence except that of the
little girl and that Of her father in his
own defense, which consisted OF a gen

THERE are certain gossipy persons
who assert that the Vincent-Morse-
Morgan combination in Reno county
politics is not to have so smooth and
satisfactory a career as the Rothschields-
Rockefellers-Morgan combination in
trade, They assert that Mr., Morgan in
carrying the war into the country only
let down the bars to permit Martin to
get among his friends. It will indeed
be surprising if the fur that has been so
rulIled and some OF it pulled out in wads
during this campaign should resume its

Comm q This Way.

The Kingman Journal prints the fol-
lowing which if true as it seems to be,
will also hit Reno county. The ninety
eighth meridian also runs through Reno
county: "Last spring company OF sur
veyors came down across this section oI
the world on a surveying trip and many
wondered at the time what was going "a
happen, but never fully understood what
it all meant. This week curiosity was
again revived by the arrival of a cal
load oflumber at the Badger Lumber
Company's yards, and the announce
ment that it would be used to construct
five towers, sixty-four feet high, in this
and adjoining counties on the north and
south. The survey is an International
one for the purpose of ascertaining the
circumference Of the earth from pole TO
pole exactly The line will be run on
the ninety.eighth meridian which passes
through this country. Owing to the fact
that a direct survey would be impossi-
bic because of the inaccessibility Of
many points on the line, the style of
survey will be what is called triangular
survey, A tower will be erected at each
Of the three points on the triangle found
and vacated as soon as the survey is
made and donated by the government
to the man on whose land it is built.

to S337o7,89S. which is an increase of S2,-
I42,4oS.2o over that shown by the De-
cember statement, The cash and sight
exchange on hand has increased over
the December showing SI,764, o74.So
and the loans and discounts have in
creased s34S,62274, The law requires
that the banks keep on hand as a re-
serve fund 20 percent of their deposits
but the reserve now on hand is much
larger than that. 1t has been at one
time within the past year more than
double that amount and is now about
that.
The banks in Hutchinson also have
their share in the increase of business,
This is shown both by the statements of
the Citizens bank and the State Exchange
bank, as well as the First National, On

Formerly of Reno County

Word has reached this city that
Walter Price, adopted son of Richard
Price who lives some four or FIVE miles
north of town, committed suicide a few
days ago in Pueblo, He seems to have
led a wild and reckless life much to the
disappointment of his foster parents
who gave him every advantage to make
a useful citizen, He had been married
three times and two of his wives were
Reno county girls. The last one aban.
doned him short time ago leaving him
two little children, boy and girl, four
and six years old, to care for. His sui.
eide under these conditions seems es-
pecially cowardly The two little tots
are described by a woman connected
with the Colorado Humane Society who
wrote here for information, as being very
bright and much attached to one an
other

After all If the republicans had left
Captain Bennett and Charlie Noyes off
their ticket and filed their places with
other men Of a character in keeping
with the head OF their ticket they would
have probably won out. Perhaps II that
had been the case however the whiskey
men would not have been so active, so
the loss would have been equal to the
gain.

The new city officers seem to have
some definite ideas of their difficulties
and duties. They appear to think that
the joints are to be among the least of
their troubles The wet men know they
mean business and are likely to hide
OF course it will require some vigilance
but the heavy part of the work was done
on election day by the women. The
greatest difficulties that beset the new
administration are those Of a financial
nature, the pulling Of the city out OF the
hole in which it has been houndering
for several years. Along this line are
likely to be some wholesale consolida-
tions OF offices in order to reduce the pay
roll. The Office Of street commissioner
will surely be abolished, and his duties
be assumed by the city marshal, who
has ample time and opportunity to do
all the work Of both Offices. Quite likely
the police force will be reduced. The city
clerk may have to taken on more work,
The city funds will probably be placed
where they will draw some interest of
which the city will get the benefit,
There is also likely to be some reduc-
tions of rates for water and lights.
ThCse are some of the suggestions that
are made, They may not all be carried
out, but many Of them will at least, and
probably some others Of similar nature
not here mentioned.
The new officers realize that they have
the full responsibility, They must full.
