ARE GOOD PEOPLE
settlers of the New Country are at
Right.

Guthrie. O. r., Aug. 1.-THE best
class Of people that ever settled new
country are those in the Kiowa, CO.
manche and Apache country at the
present time, - said United States Dis
trict Attorney Horace Speed who has
Just returned from an official trip to
Lawton and other points in the new
country. The reports have gone out
over the country said Mr.. Speed,
that all kinds of lawlessness is car
ried on in some of the new towns.
wish to state that there is less lawless-
ness in this opening than in any other
opening the government has ever had
in a Western country. The officials
are handling the opening in better
shape and have Il better system than
they have ever had before. | do not
believe that they have more men. but
the force is well organ zed and United
States Marshall Thompson is giving
the opening his personal attention.
Another thing, the people who are
in the new country have more money,
ten to one more, than the people had
AT other openings, This fact alone is
conducive to good conduct and the
men and women are not wanting for
the Leeds of this life. They have the
money To pay for them. The fact that
so many banks have. started up with
such large deposits at this time bears
out my statements.
The gamblers have been shut out
of this opening. For time they
operated but the deputy United States
marshals and territorial officials have
the gambling under control as far as
possible. The bad men, if they are
at the government towns, are keeping
quiet and the reports of lawlessness
that are going over the country are
exaggerated.
while at Lawtou found a splen-
did class of people. The people are
good natured and generous, but they
are not willing to be imposed or.
They are able to take care of them
selves and this fact will have much to
do with the future development of the

Fort Scott Won TMn.

The Fort Scott ball players left last
evening for their home very much
disappointed crowd. True they won
both games but they won them by such
narrow margins and won both games
by errors on lola's part that they had
nothing to feel good over. They came
here according to their own story with
the expectation of finding something
easy and after the first game did not
realize that they had to play ball
again Yesterday they put in their
best pitcher and started in the game
with the determination of making
about twenty runs and shutting the
lola boys out, But they had harder
light Wednesday than the day before
and they went home sore at them
selves.
Fort Scott scored the run IN the first
inning but lola scored two. Cruise
maze Il safe hit which was followed by
one 10y Pinkertou and Murphy brought
them home with a long three base
drive. Murphy played ball Tuesday.
He was of the day before but certainly
redeemed himself 10y some heavy
batting and better fielding.
Neither side scored again until the
fourth when two errors gave Ft Scott
another run tying the score. The
score remained two to two until the
seventh when TT. Scott and lola each
made two more still leaving the game
Il tie. Cruise made home run in the
seventh bringing in Pinkerton and
himself.
Fort Scott scored again in the eighth
making them one run ahead which lola
was unable to get over
But it was pretty game and demon
strates that lola with the help of two
or three outside men can get together
Il pretty stiir team and it may result
in "a team being organized.
Miller. of Humboldt. and Mcdonald
and Cruise, of LaHarpe, and Suther-
land. of Geneva, were the outside men
who helped 10 these two games ana
they are all good players and deserve
credit for their work. II lola had had
Miller in the first game the score would
have been different for he puts up "a
pretty game at short.
The score yesterday by innings was

Commanders Have Nothing with Which
TO Defend Themselves.

London, Aug. l4.-The war news,
meager as it is, offers better promise
of peace than it has for along period.
Evidence is accommodating that the Boer
commanders have reached the bottom
of their supplies of ammunition and
are surrendering from sheer inability
to defend themselves, Military men
explain the desperate attacks upon
small bodies of British troops by the
necessity for obtaining fresh supplies
of rifles and ammunition.

Wise boys who think it is fun to

taken out. The melons belonged to
Mr.. Bixby, the commission merchant,
and he discovered the loss this morn

Camp Dan Sickles was deserted an

The crowd gathering at the depot
Immediately upon the arrival Of the
train Vice President Roosevelt began
speaking from the rear end platform.
He stood upon the platform with w.
\. White OF EmpUria and /. f..
Lambert. The Vice President spoke
directly to the old soldiers. He said
that he was always clad to speak to
the people of Kansas and particularly
to these who were especially entitled
to the greatest respect OF all Ameri-
cans.
"YOu who left US reunited union, a"
he said, left us something IA great in
the memory of what You had done, as
IA lesson to be applied to civic life: a
great lesson of brotherhood. When
you stood in the ranks you cared little
for who your neighbor was or where
he had come from. What you wanted
to know was, would he stand fire;
Would he go forward? There was the
same feeling among our early pio
neers in this country. Many of you
have been soldiers and Western pio-
neers-double heroes. "
The Vice President said the Ameri-
can principle should be to honor the
man who does something. He said he
wanted to warn the people against
envying the man of ease.
There were men of ease during the
times of from 1891 to 1866" he said.
Ibid you old soldiers envy them?
Are you sorry for what you did then?
Do you regret giving the country
those four years? We never will make
this country all it should be until, in
good faith, we accept the principle
that the man is to be judged on his
worth as man."
During his short speech the ques-
tious he asked were answered from all
parts of the crowd.
When the train started there was
general rush for the platform and as
long as they could overtake the train
veterans and others We'd to shake
hands with Roosevelt.
GOOD POLICE PROTECTION.
Hutchinson, Kas., Aug. l4.-Every
train that comes into the city brings
more old soldiers, and the crowd is
constantly increasing. This morning
there were many new faces in camp
that were not there when taps sounded
last night. The camp is in excellent
condition. There is no mud neither
is there any dust, and the police super
vision could not be improved upon.
There has been no disturbance of any
kind and everything is moving along
