TO ELECT COUNTY PRINTER.

w. G. Millar has introduced special
bill in the legislature providing for the
election of county printer in Barber
county. We have not seen a copy of
the pet measure but we are informed by
those who are pushing it, that it is copied
from the Harper county law. The only
difference is that the rates in Millar's
law remain nearly the same as they
are now, while in the Harper county
law they are reduced to 90 per cent of
the present rate. In Harper county the
voters were first given the privilege of
saying whether or not they desired to
elect county printer, at the election
succeeding the passage of the law, but
in this instance the printer is made
elective at the general election next
fall, and the people will not be consult
ed about it.
1t Is well understood that Lutte Ak
line and Otis Lorton are the men who
have instructed MIR. Millar to introduce
this bill. They did not think of it dur
ing the past three years when two of
our county commissioners were repub.
llcans. Neither did such an idea enter
Mr.. Mlllar's Uranium. But now it is
plain that the republicans have work
ing majority In the county and the Cres.
set people think that by making the
county printer an elective Office they
can continue to have a ''cInch." But
it would never do to submit the matter
to the people to see if they desired to
make this an elective office. as was done
in Harper county. that might give an
other paper chance to do portion of
the county work a year and few months
more possibly. What Axline. and Lor-
ton want is to be elected next fall so
they can take hold in January. Their
present contract does not expire until
May and all they would miss, if they
fail to secure the contract in April,
would be next summers tax list. A
cute trick indeedl While they are at it
they might have Millar get special

1t is useless for apologists
for the Millar contest affair
to say now that Mr.. Millar
did not intend to contest. He
not only intended to do it,
but he did it. He had sever.
al affidavits already drawn
up and qualified to when Mr..
Lester withdrew. Mr.. Lester
was threatened with costs
from the very start if he would
not withdraw. After a con.
test is filed, like a suit in
court, it is too late to head

contracted and the expense

lature his withdrawing would
not have helped him out one
whit; he might as we'll have
fought it to a finish so far as
that was concerned. Be hon.
est, gentlemen. Everybody
who knows anything about
Mr.. Millar's intentions, knows
that he intended to contest
after he had made a certain
trip to Topeka, and it was so
stated by the Topeka Capital,
Mail and Breeze, as we'll as
the papers of Barber county.
More than that, Mlllar expires.
sed a determination to con-
test and get a seat to many
people right in this town. No.
tice of the contest had also
been served on Mr.. Lester.

One of Barber county's
most solid farmers called on
Us Saturday and asked us to
say that he would rather
join a gang of outlaws such
as the Daltons, than to get
an Office the way Bill Millar
got his this winter. He says
robbery is the only name for
Il. We are at liberty to give
this mans name to any poll,

ed at this statement. If this

If "Millar did not Intend

If "Millar did not intend
to contest" the Cresset lied
when it stated that he would,
didn't it? At first the Cresset
said Millar would not contest,
then it said he would, now it
says he did not intend to.
How are its readers to know
when it is lying and when it
is telling the truth? For con-
venience, permit us to sug-
gest that if by chancea truth.
full statement is put in type
in the Cresset office, the fore
man be instructed to mark it
with an asterisk, indicating
"this is no lie." There will
be plenty of stars in the Office
to serve the purpose, and it
will relieve the papers read
ers wonderfully.

the Kingman Journal to Ern-

The burning of Fred Alex
ander at Leavenworth last
week has created great com.
motion throughout the state.
Alexander was a negro tough
and attempted to assault sew.
eral women and, it is claimed,
assaulted and murdered Miss
Pearl Forbes on Nov. 7th. He
was burned at the stake in
defiance of the authorities by
an infuriated mob although
he declared himself innocent
to the last. This is the first
Instance of burning at the
stake in the history of Kansas
and our people will quit
pointing a finger of scorn at
Colorado and the South. Mob
violence should not be en-
couraged, yet If this man was
guilty of the crimes charged
the punishment was not too
severe. But most people would
not feel warranted in such
procedure where the evil
dence is not clearer than it
has been In this instance. AT
ter the terrible thing has been
done, it is to be hoped that
the guilty one was caught,
but if it should finally trans
pire that Alexander was In
nocent no language could be
strong enough to condemn it.

IT'S UP TO THEM.

The INDEX does not like to call any
man, orianything that has the external
appearance Of a man. liar. It's rough
talk and isn't exactly 1sk refinement.
But in this instance no other term can
do justice to all parties concerned.
The Cresset last week announced
THAT Barber county is represented in
the state legislature this year by q re-
publican instead of a Populist is due
more to Clate Herr of the INDEX than
any other individual" Further on in
its comment the Cresset says. 1T was
not until the editor of the INDEX ad.
vised him to turn loose, that he decided
to give up the Office to which he had
been elected" There are very few
people who would give weight to such
rot but we,enter denial so that even
the publishers Of the Cresset will have
no excuse for circulating such foolish
stuff. Mr.. Lester had arrived at a de-
cision before he talked with either of
the publishers OF the INDEX as to the
course he would pursue. So far as our
knowledge goes, we believe that Mr..
Lester concluded to relinQulsh as soon
as he lear ned that he would be held for
the costs if he should be unseated. At
any rate we KNOW that when Mr.. Les
ter FIRST approached US he stated that
he had concluded to Withdraw from the
contest, explaining that his financial
circumstances are such that the pay
ment of the costs which contest would
entail, would mean financial ruin. We
did not protest because we thought he
could not pursue any other course in
justice to himself and his family. If
anybody outside of himself, influenced
Mr.. Lester, 1t was Lis neighbors in
Cedar township who are best acquaint-
ed with his business affairs. The men
with whom we heard Mr.. Lester ad
wise on the day he withdrew were Hon.
Jerry Simpson, Geo. W. Nelson, r. J.
Taliaferro, DR.. 1. w. Stout, w. c. AL
ford, Burd Lacy and j. B. Harbaugh.
All of these. excepting DR.. Stout,
agreed with Mr.. Lester that he could
not afford to take the risk.
We ask the indulgence of our readers
for referring to this foolish attack. It is
so personal that many will be looking
at every piece of type to find something
they can constIue into egotism. We
have no hesitancy In saying that Meth
or OF the publishers of the INDEX have
had either the desire or the power to
dictate to Mr.. Lester. It has always
been our aim and our practice to leave
men and their judgment alone and we
know that Mr.. Lester can not be influ-
enced by any person or anything. He
is man who uses his own Judgment
and always acts on the purest motives.
With this rather lengthy reference to
the Cresset's senseless attack We leave
the publishers thereof with their con-
sciences If they have any. Their state
ments are plain and deliberate lies in
tended to place us in the light of both
knaves and fools, but it has already
operated as a boomerang. Return
thou to thine own vomit and be gorged
until thy inherent rottenness seethes
out at every aperture in thy miserable
abomlnab]e carcass.
