st. Louis Endorsement II What Counts
With the St. Louis Public.

You can't fool the public all the time.
They will find you out at last.
Every time a man is fooled
Another skeptic is made.
Many the remedy that makes the skeptic
Because it fails to keep its promises.

Plenty of proof OF this at home.
St. Louis proof for ST. Louis people.
Here's a case of it: =.
Mr.. John Eschbacher. living at 12N South
Sixth street, employed as a baker at
Freund Baking Co. says: Il had backache
and sometimes very severe for Is months.
In addition to that. other symptoms of kid
new complaint were very manifest. Once in
awhile the pain in my back was so intense
It struck me when reading a statement
about Doan's Kidney Pills that they might
help me, so I went to the Wolff Wilson
Drug Co.'S for a box. / continued the treat
ment until the aching stopped and other an
noyances due to either excited or

A Truce.

Fl. Cole is vacated and the forces
disbanded. The Dickey people
have got restraining order against
the Coffeyville people, requiring
them to keep off of the grounds till
the rights of the respective parties
can be tested in the courts. The
matter is set for hearing May 2oth.
In the mean time the Dickey
people will be at work putting in
their plant as rapidly as possible,
and getting ready for business. The
sympathies of the town people are
entirely with the Dlckey folks in
this fight. They are strong and
progressive company and promise
much for the town. The point in
controversy is the gas rights on the
Cole land bought by the Dickeys.

Volcano Horrors.

As the details are received of the
result of the volcano eruption on
the island of Martinique, they grow
more horrifying continually. Ex-
ploring parties are at work az St.
Pierre and each step of progress
made, reveals additional horrors.
On every hand are to be seen the
purifying nude bodies of her once
happy citizens. In many places
they are in heaps and piles. 1t
seems dense cloud of poisonous
vapors and gasses, without a mo-
ment's warning, enveloped the city,
smothering the life out of every liv-
ing thing in an instant. Then came
the awful avalanche of red hot lava
and hot cinders, sweeping down the
mountain side till il rolled complete

C. S. Swain, whose announce
ment appears in the TIMES this
week as a candidate for County Su-
perintendent, is most wort y
young man, and man both by ma
ture and requirements we'll fitted
for the place. Mr.. Swain IS a
school teacher by instinct. Early
in life, from natural inclination, he
chose teaching as profession and
went earnestly to work to prepare
himself for the profession. Not
content with the ordinary education
to be obtained in our country and
graded schools, he attended the
State Normal school at Emporia
for several years, studying methods
and the higher branches. Mr..
Swain is a resident of Neosho coun
ty of thirty years standing and has
been a successful teacher for the
last twelve. His familiar face is
seen at every normal institute or
teachers gathering held in the
county. He is wide-awake, ener-
getic and progressive. Should he
be nominated, the public schools
of the county would not suffer at
his hands.

49, OIL AND GAS
T NOTES

The Canterberry syndicate has
received a new drill and located a,
we'll on the Brinkmeyer place, east
of the river, and are at work. The
boys expect to bring in gusher.
" " Y
All the drills on the bottom seem
to be running on full time, and
great developments may be expect
ed before long.
The Isett company has brought
in another big gusher on the Isett
eighty. Each we'll drilled on this
tract seems to be better than the
preceding one. The first thing you
know the Isett Co. will be one of
the big oil producing companies of
Chanute.
The Keller company, drilling on
the Williams land west of Austin,
after all manner of obstacles have
been surmounted, have now got
strung out and are rapidly going
down toward the oil, which they
think they can scent below them.
Still the city council does not
seem inclined to trade oil rights for
proven gas territory.
v KK
Why don't the city council sue
Mr.. Knapp at once for what they
claim he owes them, and settle the
controversy Mr.. Knapp is per-
fectly responsible and we wish we
had judgment against him and his
company for about a quarter of a
million We think we would col-
lect every dollar Of it.
" YK
Uucle Wesley Cole should be the
happiest man in town. After about
thirty-fve or forty years diligent
and faithful effort to make living
on one of the thinnest pieces of
land in the county, and barely sue
ceeding by the most rigid economy,
he can now draw his check for SIS, :
900 as the proceeds of the sale of
the land.
" v n
We hear considerable talk of a
new brick plant to be put in, south
west of town, by local capital. We
hope it will materialize. There is
plenty of shale and abundance of
gas to burn it, and there seems to
be no end to the demand for brick.
What is the matter with the west
brick plant that they do not double
their capacity9 They have limitless
quantities of shale and abundance
of gas and are unable to keep in
sight of their orders.

Of the town are entirely covered

knows how many thousand outside
of the town were destroyed. The
civilized governments are rushing
their vessels to the scene of the dis

An explosion of several cars of
naptha in the railroad yards of
Pittsburg, Pa, few days back,
scattered death and destruction on

more or less burned, many of them
very seriously. Much property was
destroyed by the series of explo-
