Test of kansas Honesty.

A watch hanging by a string to the
latch of Edmonds jewelry store in
North Topeka attracted the attention
of an early morning passerby Wed
nesday, says the Topeka State Jour
nal. 1t was only a little after sunup,
and the jewellery store was locked.
The man examined the watch, and
discovered that it appeared to be out
OF fix in some way. 1t refused to tick
What's this watch doing here? ~ he
called across the street to the butcher,
who was just sweeping out
The butcher came across the street
and examined the valuabe- timepiece
hanging to the latch.
"Well, wCC!Gn that beat the Dutehr
he exclaimed Some chap must have
left it here to be fixed"
Presently quite a crowd gathered
Every ole who happened along the
street stopped to look at the curious
spectacle Of a watch hanging by a
piece of twine outside Of the door of a
jewelry store almost before daylight.
When the owner of the jewelry store
arrived about an hour later he. was
surprised to find the sidewalk in front
of his place crowded with people
Whats the matter here?' he de-
manded as he pushed his way through
the crowd. with visions of burglaries
rising before his eyes
"Looh here." exclaimed several .peo-
pie, pointing to the watch.
Edmonds detached the watch from
its string, opened it, glanced at the
works, and said:
"Oh, yes; this is BIZ Thompson's
watch. A1ainspring broken. Thonp-
son goes to work at the Santa .Fe
shops at 6 o'clock, and he couldn't
wait for me to open up. guess. Said
he was going to bring his watch down
for me to fix, and he must have been
IN hurry for me to get to work on
it."
'Thompson's got more confidence in
the honesty of folks than l nave"
moralized the butcher as he sauntefed
back across the street to his shop.

 We take pleasure in inviting the att tention of the democratic voters of Hickory township to the announcement of w. A. Butt for reelection to the office of justice of the peace, subject to the action of the democratic primary, March 29. Judge Butt is among the most learned justices of the county. His entire administration has been charac- terized by fearless and equitable ad- ministration of the law. He will doubt less find the way clear to succeed himself.
 J. s. Fancher's announcement for as- sessor appears in this weeks TRIBUNE. There is no young man in the county who has not held an office more widely known than is Joe Fancher. He has been active in the service of his party since before he was old enough to vote, and there is nothing perhaps that we could say for him to democrats that they do not already know. MT. Fan cher's qualifications and extensive ac- quaintance make him necessarily a strong candidate.
 The worst effects of the drought are just now coming about. Many stories of the worst sort of privations are com ing in from some sections of the country Already several calls have been made upon the people of the town to help un- fortunates who failed to make crop and have run short of anything to go upon. These calls should receive the generous attention of our citizens, for the poor must be looked after. There is no call of charity more nob.y responded to than one from the deserving poor.

 The breakdown of the oil drill which occurred about two weeks ago is still holding up the work. The return of the broken portion from the foundry at Kansas City has been expected for sev- eral days, but it has not showed up. The company hopes to be able to make up for lost time when once started up again.
 Hon. J. D. James of Benton county, candidate for the democratic nomination for railroad commissioner from this dis trict, was Green Forest visitor Wednes- day. Col. James sought this nomina- tion two years ago and carried Carroll county by a good majority, and will doubtless do the same thing again. He is gentleman of high education, pos sessing the ability to perform the duties of the position he seeks, is highly de- serving from political standpoint and it seems that his chances for election are very bright.
