Kansas farmers have issued a call
for an army of 10000 laborers to

Mrs. H. Gibler has been on the

Moses Bros. who recently pur,

Members of the Catholic church
who are interested in erecting a build

liminary work. They now have Sc
cured the Bishops consent and this
valuable addition to our city is
assured.
George Torrant, who makes the
threshing season here every fall,
wrote US this week regarding the crop
prospects and says for us to tell
his friends that he will be here and
ready for business in due time. We
will just say for his information, that
the prospects for '.geewhilikin" :"
good crop were never better.
Last night that little splicing
affair." we alluded to last week, cul-
minated at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. F. T. Ozen-

bride. Rev. w. E. Scott superintend-
ed the operation and pronounced the
words that made the knot hold.
Tuesday of this week while Mr.. and
Mrs. McNutt were away from home
and the children alone, man came to

the house and after cutting his capers,
left and went his way. Mr.. McNutt
and some friends took up his trail and
succeeded in effecting his capture
and turned him over to the county
authorities yesterday.

Certainly. WhyNot?

Great Bend, Kans., June 8, 1903.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT:-ConSid
excitement prevailed in the north
side throughout Sunday, the first day
of the present week. The cause of
the commotion was a trio of men at
work on a building that is being
erected in that locality. The indigna-
ton of some knew no bounds. Sunday
visiting, fishing excursions, pleasure
trip, in fact all of the usual methods
of Sunday devotion were dispensed
with and the outraged populace
gathered in groups or went from
house to house denouncing the
workmen.
The offenders, it seems, are Seventh
day (Sabbath) keepers and having
respected what they believe to be the
true Sabbath, felt justified in obeying
the rest of the command: "Six DAYS
thou shalt labor"
1t is strange that people believing
themselves to be Christians, and up
holders of Christian liberty, should
clamor for the punishment of a few
men, Christians also, because they
differ from them as to the day to be
observed as Sabbath. Why not
attack Railway and Milling companies,
factories, drug stores, bakeries,
restaurants, etc, where thousands of
employees labor every day with no
opportunity to observe any day as
holy? A. CITIZEN.

An Error.

In reporting the last meeting of the
city council, one of our city papers
reported that Mr.. Sloniger appeared
before the council and asked that
payment be made him for the time
lost when he was guarded because of
sickness at his place. This is an
error. Mr.. Sloniger was not guarded
or quarantined because of sickness,
but owing to the fact that his daugh-
ter had been exposed to the smallpox
at Hutchinson, and Immediately came
home. We are not taking sides in
the matter of the right or wrong of
the quarantine, but an injustice. is
done Mr.. Sloniger to report sickness
at his home when none existed. We
think the papar publishing the report
did so through error, and not to in
jure Mr.. Sloniger.
