SOME queer things have hap
pened during the political cam
paign just closed. One of the
unlocked for things, and one
that the voters of this judicial
district will remember, was the
breaking into the campaign at
the last moment by Ansel r.
Clark. After saying that he was
"Very strongly opposed to active
partisanship by Judge, while
upon the bench, and also during
his term of Office he then went
on, in his letter published in the
Barton county republican pa
pers, and took an extremely
partisan position in behalf of
the republican candidate for
Judge, claiming also that he had
used his efforts to bring out
that candidate.

GREAT BEND KANSAS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER T. 1902

FRANKLIN. of the Hoisington
Dispatch, last week asserted that
the editor of the DEMOCRAT was
no gentleman, and all because
we saw fit to expose his political
piracy and double dealing. Our
attacks upon him were not of
a personal nature, as he well
knows, but were attacks upon
his political course. 1.-The desires
us to write him up personally
for the benefit of the public, we
can do SO; and we guarantee
that some facts we could bring
out would be rare and racy.
However. we do not seek that
kind OF quarrel with anyone.
The campaign is over, and our
wish is that we may both devote
our small talents to the building
up of Barton county and her
towns and cities, and not bore
our readers with personal scrap
pings.

THE editors of the Register
and Tribune last week were pro-
fuse in their attacks upon the
DEMOCRAT; they snorted around
about "bushwacking," "innuen-
do" and "falsehood" at a great
rate: But they took pains to
hold their papers back aday-not
getting them printed until after
they knew the DEMOC RAT was
printed and mailed and could
therefore not answer them. We
warned our readers that this
would be done-it's a habit those
fellows have; a habit, however,
that is cowardly and futile, for
it is not sanctioned by even their
own political following. AS the
whirligig of time bobs around
these "bigfraids'' will receive just
retribution, and we do not envy
them the final accounting.
The college of Journalism"
makes us an offer to give us a
course OF instructions as to chow
to run a newspaper at $50 for
the course. Great jimcracks!
What would we want to pay $50
for such instructions for, when
this town is full of people who
are offering such information
every week free of charged No,
thank you, gentlemen; your price
is too high-you can't begin to

THE easiest money won on
this election was by the man who
bet that he could write the name
OF the winner for the office of
sheriff on a card, seal it up, and
when opened after election if the
card had written on it the name
of the man elected, the money
was his; if not, the money was

had only to write the two names
to be sure to win.

yet come. In fact, people didn't like to
risk a ducking or a cold in the head in

Ferris was most fortunate in his engage

the result was that his business was re-
