A Missouri farmer, whose hog had
been killed by a train, and who mag.
med himself something OF poet,
wrote these lines 20 the company's
claim agent for a settlement:
My razorback strolled down your
track
A week ago today;
Your % came down the line
And snufred his light away.
You can't blame me-the hog, you see.
Slipped through a cattle gate;
So kindly pen check for ten,
The debt to liQuidate.
He was rather surprised few days
later to receive the following:
Old 29 came down the line
And killed your hog, we know;
But razorbacks on railroad tracks
Quite often meet with woe.

Caused by Unwise Forbearance.


This condition is without parallel III the
history of any country long occupied by
an invading and conquering army. It was
brought about by the kindness and forbear-
ance of my predecessors in the command
of these provinces. They had been en-
deavoring to suppress insurrection by the
occupation Of the principal towns by
marching the troops to every place where
be encountered, by the utmost kindness
and consideration for the natives, and by
carefully guarding them in every possible
way from any infringement Of any rights
Of person or property. Surrounded by
dense population Of semi-civilized natives
belonging to a race whose every impulse
is to treachery and perfidy, it was attempted
to reduce them to obedience to law and
order by the gentlest and most conciliatory
methods.
Upon assuming command I recognized
inces to order the most determined methods
consistent with humane construction of
the laws Of war was necessary, the in
surrection would continue indefinitely under
the policy heretofore followed. Instructions
were given the commanding general, Sd
separate brigade, to inaugurate a policy
that would separate the well disposed from
the irreconcilable and to reduce the re-
fractory to submission by every action au-
thorized by the laws of war as defined in
the humane code published by the War
Department in general orders No. 100 of
1853. Active operations were Immediately

would be given the opportunity to exam

they would.

sition il he loses he goes back with his

Judge Gray here interrupted to explain
the understanding of the commission with
the respect of the returning of men who
had struck. He said: Il think tie un-

was in great danger. 1t was saved,
however, by hard work.

The mill was owned by A. S. Barr

$4,000. It falls heavily on the owners
and is great loss to Kiowa and Bar

Silence is Consent.

Ever since E. H. Nixon became a
candidate for representative the Index
has endeavored to secure an expression
from him on the county printer law.
AS he has refused to do so no other con-
clusion can be drawn than that he is IN
favor of retaining the law since he Ia
bored for its success last fall. He
takes this position Notwithstanding the
fact that the people Of Barber county
decided by majority Of $50 that they
did not want it. Nick may be more
able to say what the people Of this
county need than they are themselves
but he will pardon us if we are little
skeptical on that point.
On this question the Index desires to
be perfectly fraDk. It was argued that
since being elected we had changed our
position and now desire to retain the
law. This is entirley false as persual
of our files will show 1t is true that
we have received the benefit of the law, i,
but we have not sought to take undue
advantages which it permits. We
haye not even been given the matter
for publication that the law requires.
and we may never receive it unless we
demand it in a court ofjustice. but for all
that. it has been shown that the law Is
very obnoxious and that all that we
claimed in last years campaign is now
established beyond successful contra.
diction.
1t is matter of satisfaction to the
people of Barber county that the posi-
tions of the two leading candidates on
this question are defined. Those
who want to retain the law csn vote
for Mr.. Nixon. Those who want it re-.
pealed can vote for Mr. Walker.

W. E. Williams Married.

Our citizens were somewhat surprised
to meet w. f. Williams and bride last
Thursday. They had not heard of his
matrimonial plunge and when he intro
duced Mrs. Williams to them it was
unexpected.
Mr.. Williams is in business at Alva
and he and his wife will continue to
live in that city. He has been Barber
county citizen for many years and we
would like to have him return again.
The following is from last Wednes-
days Alva Pioneer:
Married:-At the residence of the
bride in this city last Sunday evening,
Mr.. William E. Williams to Mrs. Maude
Leslie, Rev. Wagner officiating. They
are both OF Alva and we'll known, Mr..
Williams being proprietor OF the candy
factory on the north side, and is q pro
gressive and energetic business man.
Mrs. Leslie is the mother of the Leslie
brothers of the south side grocery. They
left yesterday for Medicine Lodge, where
they will spend a few days visiting
friends. They will make their home
in Alva, and the Pioneer joins their
host of friends in wishing them pros
perity and happiness. The boys of the
town entertained them with the regular
tin pan serenade, but the music was
not sufficiently appreciated to brin 9
