PRISON REVOLT

Twenty seven prisoners in tn.
federal prison at Leavenworth, last
Thursday afternoon, made break
for liberty. They overpowered a
number of the guards, battered down
the stockade and escaped amid a
fusillade of bullets. Several guards
were seriously hurt and one prisoner
was killed and others wounded be
fore they got away.
Friday five of the escaped men
were discovered in barn at Norton
vile. A few men with rifles got to.
gether and called on n tc
come out. They came with rush
shooting as they came but were all
shot down but one, who surrender
ed. Officers are in pursuit of the
others and it is supposed that most
of them will be retaken.
Sheriff Cook, of Shawnee county,
was out with a posse Sunday after a
couple of the escaped convicts.
They were discovered in piece OF
timber near Pauline, small town
few miles south of Topeka.
A running fire was kept up on the
convicts till they got into the or
chald surrounding Mr.. Worcester 's
house. Here they were lost sight Of.
Sheriff Cook being acquainted
with Mr.. Worcester, bolted into the
house to make inquiries when he was
immediately covered by the guns of
the convicts and made to take seat.
The house was soon surrounded
but the besiegers were informed that
the first hostile movement on their
part would be signal for the death
of the sheriff and Worcesters. In
this way the posse were held off till
dark, when the convicts come out,
shielded by the bodies of sheriff Cook
and Mrs. Worcester. They were
allowed to march through the lines
unmolested and escape in the dark
ness.

PROGRESSING.

Some of these days the citizens of
Chanute are going to wake up to the
fact that we are enjoying quite
little boom.
Chanute is now being advertised
far and near as an oil center and
capital and prospectors are focking
in in a most surprising manner.
Drill after drill is being unloaded
and set to work and rush orders are
sent in.
Inside of thirty days, the indica-
tons are, there will be a dozen
to twenty drilling machines, pound
ing away towards the center of the
earth in this locality.
The wells that are being brought
in are very promising and we look,
before spring, to see Chanute the
center of an immense oil industry
that will startle even her own citizens.
The oil development will bring
other industries and late develop
ments in the gas field prove that we
have abundance of gas to supply any
industries that may desire to locate
with US.
Ii il time for the citizens of Cha
mute to get hump on themselves
and be ready for the great prosper
ity that 10 being thrust upon Us BY
outside capital.
We notice there has been eener-
al spirit of cleaning and fixing up in
the various residence portions of
town this fall and it is now time to
improve the business portion. 1t
does seem that the property owners
on Main street are standing in their
own light when they do not consent
to the paving Of Main street. Other
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1901-11-15

towns around us of less proport ons
and with nothing like the future out
look are paving, not only the Main
business street, but portions of the
side streets. We should not delay
longer the work. At least six blocks
should be paved now just as soon as
the work can possibly be done. AS
rule the people who own the lots
are abundantly able to stand the ex-
pense and we believe they would
get enough pleasure out of it each
year to justify the expense.
1t would seem good plan to re-
vive the Board of Trade and have
regular meetings during the winter
to devise means and discuss propo-
sitions.
Outside people are going to make
a town hereabouts whether we will
or not. We had better get in line
and push it a little or at least mani
fest a willingness to be made. Ev'
cry week now sees new prospecting
companies formed and almost every
day new drilling outfits arrive.
Land any where IN sight of the de-
veloped oil land has trebled in value
and soon Chanute city property will
begin to feel the impetus.
By the way, if you are thinking
of buying property in or within
twenty miles of Chanute you had
better do it right now. When
spring opens you will wish you had.

A. Fl. TURNER,
Dear Sir:-I want to thank
the people Of the Third Commits
sioner District, through the me-
dium Of your paper, for the fine
compliment paid me at the elec-
tion last week.
Three years service and such
a magnificent compliment would
be, for me, a desirable ending of
my commissioner career. But
this gives me three years more
OF service, and my highest aim
will be, to prove myself worthy
of the confidence reposed 10 me.
There will be no prejudice
against any person or locality.
Will try to represent the entire
district. Respectfully,
]. A. ALLEMAN.

has enjoyed its advantages and suf.
fered from its drawbacks. II the
people of the state will adopt the
second kind of bonanza hunting in
the develoment of the sugar industry
they will have unlimited success.
But they must combine hard COM
mon sense with their enthusiasm.
Beet farming, which is the basis
Of the beet sugar industry, is not bo
nanzs farming. It is scientific work,
it requires study, patience, industry,
perseverance. The beet farmer must
put himself in the mental attitude of
being willing to learn from those
who have had ample experience and
possess scientific knowledge. The
sugar beet is product of science; it
requires corresponding treatment.
Let the people begin at the foun-
dstion. Look up your lands, see
what the farmers are willing to do,
get your acreage signed. There is
plenty of capital ready to build the
factories if you will supply the agri-
cultural basis.
The Beet Sugar Gazette is far
from wishing to deter the people of
Colorado. Quite the contrary, it
believes the state is splendidly suited
for sugar beet growing. The fac
tories at Grand Junction, Rocky
Ford and Sugar City give abund-
ant support to this belief. 1t is for
the purpose Of avoiding mistakes at
the outset that may result in seri-
GUS check to the growth of the IN.
dustry later on, that the above warn
ing is uttered. By all means go
ahead in Colorado. The prospects
are glittering with promise of abund-
ant success. But take one step at a
time and go ahead prudently'-Beet
Sugar Gazette.

Lamar up to Date.

The editor Of the Democrat spent
Saturday in our neighbor city, La
mar. The town seems to be quite
lively and an air Of prosperity per-
vaded the very atmosphere. The
Union Hotel is probably the finest
hostelry in the Arkansas valley and
Manager Wormley is pleasant gen.
tleman and knows exactly how to
entertain his guests.
The business men of that city have
a club room very neatly fitted up
and strangers in the city are taken to
this pleasant resort and entertained
in royal manner. The fact Of the
matter is, Lamarites have faculty
Of making it pleasant for the strang-
or within their gates, which is the
secret of their success and marvel

Owing to the wide circulation of
the Times, Representive Mclean has
received large number of protests
from his section of the country
against bill which was, through an
error, credited to him at the time Of
its introduction in the house. The
author Of the bill was Mr.. Msnion
and 1t was killed yesterday. It pro-
vided for a tax of so cents each on
all brands recorded, and as the stock.
men feel that they have already paid
. sufficient fee for recording their
brands, they have overwhelmed Mr..
Mclean with objections. The mem
bsr from Prowers having been SUBJ
jected to considerable annoyance
through the error Of the Times I
desire to place him right before his
constituents and state that he is op-
posed to taxing brands.-Denver

"The Rationale of Fire Rates." by
A. F. Dean, is recent publication
that should be in the hands Of all
persons interested in fire insurance,
and especially Of legislators who are
contemplating legislation on this
subject. Probably no other bust
ness has been made the target of 30
much reckless Legislative interfer-
ence as has insurance, and the in
formation in this book will be Of
value in this connection. We are
all ready to admit that there are two
sides to every question but fire in
surance; there, however, it seems
that most all Of us have acquired
the habit Of being agin' the company.
It is we'll for those interested to

The Great Modern Newspaper.

When all that portion of the Unit
ed States west of the Missouri and
Kaw rivers was trackless wilder
ness, nearly half century ago, the
first issue of one of the worlds
gretest newspapers appeared. st.
Louis, which was then a mere over
grown town on the western frontier
of civilization, has developed into a
great commercial metropolis, and
that great modern newsgather, the
ST. LOUIS GLOBE. DEMOCRAT,
has kept pace with the progress of
its city and section. It has been,
from its first issue to the present
time, the children's tutor, the youths
counselor, the woman's companion,
tue farmers instructor and friend.
Its circulation extends to every state
and territory of the Union, to Cana
ds and Mexico, and to every part
of the world where there are readers
of the English language. 1t ought
to be in your home during the com
ing year. See advertisement else

The Lincoln Day banquet OF the
advisory board Of the republican
state committee, was held in Denver
last Tuesday, sod was attended by
over two hundred Of the leading re-
publicans Of the state. Hon. Frank
@. Cloudy was the toastmaster, and
addresses were made by a number OF
the leaders of the late gallant fight
against the fusion forces. The
members instead Of being daunted
by the late defeat were all enthusiast
ic and determined to keep up the
fight, ahd to assist the state commit
tee which had organized the party
and, in spite Of the late demoraliza-
ton in the ranks, polled the largest
vote ever cast by political party in
the state.

The democratic state machine in
st. Louis has forced the nomination
Of a gold democrat for mayor of st.
Louis, one too who bolted Bryan
both in 1895 and 1900. The reason
they give is that the mayor elected
this spring will have charge Of the
Worlds Fair preparations and it is
necessary to have good business
man, which of course let the free

The celebration of Linooln's birth

The celebration of Lincoln's birth
day was more generally observed
this year than ever before. 1t is
the best evidence Of his greatness
that, although only SO years have
passed since, the great stuggle in
which he was the leader, yet his un-
successful opponents joined as
heartily in his praise as any of his
own followers. Probably the best
Grafton at any Of the celebrations
this year was that of the rebel col
onel, Henry Wattereon, at Carnegie
hall in New York, and the platform
from which he spoke was filed with
confederate and union officers in
about equal numbers.
