Wells County News; There is no small
amount OF complaint on the part of the
public regarding the hardness Of the
county officers in opening their offices
in the court house. Or course this does
not apply to all flle Offices but majority
Of them are not opened until after nine
O'clock each morning. There is no ex-
use for this %slackness and especially at
this busy time Of the year tho Offices
should be opened not a minute later than
s o'clock. Uardlya morning in the week
passes but from one to a half dozen busy
people car be seen waiting about the
court house till after nine O'Clock for
some office to be opened.

Royalty Welcomed.

A few DAYS more and the vet
Gran Mclean county residents
who formed the first settlements
of seventeen and eighteen years
ago, will have realized the fru-
ition of their much interrupted,
and long deferred dream-a rail
road. With free hearts and
good cheer the settlers of 1Se4-5
gave right of way to the pro-
iected- road coming up the Miss
souri, valley from Bismarck
These people did not waiU in
idleness, however, but kept on
With work Of opening up farms
aid stock ranches, building
school houses and filling them
with their children. They made
it an object for the railroad to
come And it has come. There
is wheat here; there is flax ,oats
and corn here-horses, cattle
and hogs here-and in album
dance. The children grow UP
healthy and strong as does all
animal life along this part OF
the Missouri. In the drouthy
years of l8S7-S-9 several Of the
faint hearted, with gloom pic
tured on their faces and despair
in their voices moved away and
found a haven elsewhere. Their
places were re-occupied by d
sturdier class. Ambitious town
site projectors did not always
live up with their dreams nor
did the village of places like
New Jeruselum at PaintedWood
lake make a liveo of it, in depend
ing altogether for e%xistance on
outside charity. Their places
have been filled here by people
who rely on their own energies
and not Oh outside assistance.
When help comes from else
where, they have the will and
ability to pay for it. Among
such people the new railroad
eomes-and among such it will
be royalty welcome.

Need NOT WORRY
LAWYERS SAY
KidnSpper Would be Punish
ed if Caught
They Think That Punishment Should
be More Variable Instead OF
Being 50 Absolute

Lawyers of this city do not think
that parents Of children over Is years
OF age need worry over the fact THAT
should their sons or daughters be abb
Quoted, the lzidnapper, If captured
would go free. They do not think this
despite the fact that the new law,
which provides the death penalty OF
imprisonment for life at the discretion
of the court, fixes the age limit at 10
years
In glaring head lines a Philadelphia
paper recently announced the fact
that. under the new law, kidnapper
could carry of a girl or boy over 10
years of age, and If captured, could go
scot free.
When seen by a reporter for the
Evening Journal to-day, prominent
LAWYERS of this city hooted at the idea,
and said that a kidnapper could be
arrested on the charges OF felony and
assault and battery, no matter il the
victim was 10 or so. The statutes
provides for arrest on the above two
charges, and any magistrate who
knows his business would have no dill
ficulty in issuing a warrant.
In conversation with a reporter for
the Journal, Deputy Attorney Robert
H. Richards said that there would be
no difficulty in giving a kidnapper his
just dues no matter how Old his victim
might be, as the statutes make it pos
sible for arrest on two charges.
Lawyers here think that the age
limit is all right as it Is. contending
that at the age of Is or over there ia
but a faint possibility of a girl or boy
being kidnapped.
Deputy Judge Townsend said that
the punishment should not be so abso-
lutte but that the court should have
more discretion.
The universal opinion of members
of the bar OF this city is that there is
no occasion for worriment over the
matter as the kidnapper who would
ply his nefarious trade here would
find with all OF the much-talked of
faulty legislation that his lot was a
hard one.
Judge j. Frank Ball said he had not
consulted the new law concerning the
matter, but it is his opinion that il
made the crime felony instead Of a
misdemeanor Consequently, the abb
ductors, If caught, would experience
hard lines.
Walter II. Hayes said that it would
be impossible to arrest a kidnapper on
a charge of assault or battery. He
added, however, that it was not likely
that, once captured. the kidnappeI
would escape punishment.

TO TIE BRRAEEATER
The Republic Will Make. Her First Trip
OF the Season on Saturda7

Responding to numerous urgent re-
quests, Captain l.. H. Cone, the ener-
getic and very successful manager OF
the Cape May Steamboat Company,
has given instructions to have the
popular steamer Republic make a spe-
cial trip TO the Delaware Breakwater
'cn Saturday next, August "a. This will
DO welcome announcement to many
who have taken this particularly en-
ioyable sea run on the swift and
Istaunch Republic. and the number
who avail themselves of the rare op-
portunity VIII no doubt be quite large.
The delights of the Republics Break
water excursion are varied and eXhil-
arating. Aside from the marine sights
to be seen it is a real sea trip, fascinat-
ing and thoroughly enjoyable to those
who have never sailed out on the broad
Atlantic before, and a source of re-
newed pleasure to those who have. A
stirring feature is the patriotic music
.discoursed by the Republics band
when the government works are reach
ed. The Republics excursionists who
wish TO take the Breakwater trip are
carried free. The high moral tone of
the Republics management this sea-
son and the now well-known fact that
women and children can enjoy the ex-
.cursion to Cape May without escort
and with positive assurance of abso-
lutte safety, have been potent factors in
winning for the famous steamer a
.high-class patronage. The trip is there
fore ideal. from whatever standpoint
viewed. which accounts for the extra
Ordinary success Of the boat this sea-
son. The Republic leaves w. & n.
pier every morning at $50. the charge
for the round trip being one dollar,
children half fare. Take train from
Philadelphia and Reading station,
French street. at S.45 a. m. daily.
