Judge Price for Congress.

From The Ashland Clipper.
in presenting the name OF
Judge Francis C. Price for can
didacy for Congress, Clark coun-
tv presents one of the Cleanest
and at once the ablest man nam
ed for the place. Judge Price is
not a professional politician.
whatever position he has held
politically he has been placed
there by constituency that has
recognized his integrity and abil-
ity; and such recognition has
never been a mistake. He has
been weighed in the balance and
has never been found wanting.
Judge Price came to this coun-
ty in 1884 with fair knowledge
of law and plenty of energy.
There being little law business
done at the time, he interested
himself in digging wells and such
other light work as afforded him
necessary funds. The well al
the livery barn east of Main
street is a monument to his abil'
ity as a well digger.
In 1886 he was elected Repre-
S .ntative, and so well did he serve
his constituency, that in 1885
he was elected State Senator
having defeated the Hon. Ton
McNeal for the nomination
Hon. w. H. Carter of Comanch'
county was his democratic oppc
nent.
On March 9th, 1889, Governo
! Humphrey appointed him Judg
of this District, which position h
held until 1900 when he resigne'
: to take up the practice of law
Since then he has been out of pol
n tics except as voter.-Ashlan
Clipper.

Caring For Stock.

The last severe snow storm in
western Kansas caught thous-
ands of head of cattle away from
shelter and so starved and eman-
ciated that they succumbed to
the weather. People in this part
Of the state and in other states
generally are inclined to sympa-
thize with the poor stockmen who
lost so heavily but those who live
in that part of the state look on it
in a different light. In recent
issue of his paper the editor of
the Ashland Clipper, discussing
the matter said, "In my opinion
a law for the preventing of cruel
ty to animals should be passed,
compelling every owner of stock
to use all reasonable diligence
and care to provide food and shell
ter for them. There are too
many cattlemen in this country
who want to get rich quick, and
do it at the expense of the dumb
brutes. They buy bunch of
cattle and turn them out on the
prairies without food or shelter
to rustic for a living. If the VIM
ter is mild and favorable the
owner makes clear profit on his
investment, but if the winter is
severe he calculates his losses
will not amount to more than his
feed bill. Since this last snow
storm there are cattle dying in
this country from starvation and
yet there is plenty of feed for
sale. This storm is no more
than should be expected, and it
will not seriously iniure cattle
that have feed. If man is able
to buy a bunch of cattle the law
should compel him to feed and
take care of them, Nothing
could hardly be more inhuman
than to starve the poor dunn b
brutes. Topeka Herald.

this matter.
We are not surprised at the
actions of MIR. Campbell, as he is
new in politics and does entirely
too much wind work for a good
smooth politician. He got into
the Legislature by chance and
tie chances are that when his
term expires he will go on the
shelf forever, in Meade County.
He probably will never come
back to Meade County to remain
permanently. He has no inter-
ests here and nothing to come
back for.
We are not personally interest
ed in the disorganizing of Dist.
No. So, 1t is no concern of ours
but we like to see man do as he
says he will do. This Bob Camp
bell has not done, and we write
this article to call the attention
of. the people of Meade and Sew
ard County to the fact that they
elected man to the Legislature
who says he will do one thing
and Immediately proceeds to dc
the opposite,
We sincerely hope that Mr.
Campbell will never again repre-
sent this district in the Kansas
Legislature.

TOWNSHIP OFFICERS.
CITY OFFICERS,
School Dist. No. So DisorsanIzed.

A bill was passed last week by
the Legislature and signed by
the Governor disorganizing School
district No. SO in Meade County
and attaching it to District No44.
This bill was introduced by
Representative R. B. Campbell of
this district.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Camp
bell announced in an open Let
ter" through the columns of the
MEADE COUNTY News, also The
Globe that he had had the bill
disorganizing this districtand at
taching it to district No. A. with
drawn and that he would do alb
solutely nothing in the matter I'M
til all the parties got together
and agreed on some form of bill
disposing of the matter. He
said that he had introduced the
bill by request and that upon in
vestigation he found that there
was agreat dealof dissatisfaction.
Nolater than last week. his Of
fetal organ, The Globe, publish
ed remonstrance signed by a
number of actual residents of
of District No. SO, asking him to
leave their district intact.
In the face of this remonstrance
and Mr.. Campbell's own word
through these columns, that he
would do nothing in the matter
he introduces a bill, against the
wishes of these people and has
District No. 80 annexed to Dist.
No. a..
The question arises in our
mind, can Mr.. Campbell be de
pended upon? We have his let
ter stating that he would dc
nothing, we have his action that
he did. We know certain man
in Meade County who went down
to defeat by disregarding the
voice of his constituency, and
Mr.. Campbell should fare the
same should his party ever nom
mate him for oficeagain. People
as a rule, have no respect for ;
man who says hewill do one thing
and Immediately turns around
and does the opposite.
We are OF the opinion tina
political influence was brongh
TO bear on Cam pbell, whereby hi
hoped to profit by his actions il
