human liberty Is as sweet and precious

Prairie Dog Tax ReScinded.

County Commissioners j. NJ. Grouse
and B. E. Wadsworth met at the county
clerks Office on Saturday and rescinded
the order made few weeks ago levying
tax in certain townships for the pur-
pose Of exrerminating prairie dogs, un
der an act passed by the legislature last
winter. When the levy was made the
commissioners had no legal advice and
since the question has been raised they
discover that they can act only from
reports made by the township trustees
No such reports we're on file and the
levy for that reason was clearly illegal.
When they became satisfied of the sit
uation they did just what any business
men would do under the circumstances
repealed the levy.
We think they die right in this mat.
ter and are entitled to credit for it.
In this connection it should be said
that both Commissioners Grouse and
Wadsworth acted in good faith in the
f1rst instance and were not actuated by
personal motives or desire for mere
personal gain as intimated by the
"organ" two weeks ago. Commission
er Lake was opposed to it from the
first. The repeal, however, was on
the ground that it was illegal.

A Soap Vender.

Sheriff Haun received message from
the sheriff of Butler county last Thurs
day directing him to hold a soap man
who was In the custody OF the city mar
shall at Kiowa, but when the sheriff
came to inquire into the matter he
learned that the Kiowa marshal had re-
leased the man. The fellow had been
working the country on q premiu N
swindle In connection with soap sales
and q detectiyS had been following
for some time. The detective was at
Kiowa when the marshal arrested him
but the vender succeeded in persuading
both OF them that they could not hold
him. It was lucky for him that he was
dealing with the marshal and not the
sheriff.

a number OF people from town. len
gallons OF ice cream, about a wagon
load OF cake and other delicacies were
disposed OF. Gu: informant says that
he never attended gathering where
every body had such good time. Young
and old alike participated in the fes.
tivities. Mr.. Taliaferro himself is not
slow on entertaining a crowd and when
he collected himself after being so sud
denly invaded, he simply turned the
ranch over 30 the visitors. The Index
was told to refer all those who want
details of the party 10 Judge Stevens.
He was one of the busiest guests but
he was equal to his task.

STOCKMEN ENTER PROTEST.
Petition Railroad Commissioners for
Relief from Excessive and Ad.
Vanced Rates.

The live stock interests of Kansas
and the entire west are being imperlled
By the constantly increasing transpor-
tatlon rates and the gradual decrease
In good service. and the shippers all
over the country are becoming aroused
and organizations are being perfected
and steps taken to sc cure relief. Bar
Der county stockmen are doing their
share In the matter. A petition Is now
in circulation and being signed by ev.
erybody, asking the Board of Railroad
Commissioners to prevent the proposed
raise in rates which are to go into effect
September 5th. In the past two years
rates have been raised from 80 to SO per
cent and the shippers feel that another
raise at this time when prices are 60
ing down and prices OF feed are ad
vancing. is a grea: imposition. A few
years ago Is or 18 cars Of stock made
train and stock was delivered to the
market at Kansas City in Is to 20 hours.
Now one train pulls double that
amount and even more, and 80 to 3s
hours are required to put stock into
Kansas City. Added to this, a bill was
introduced in the last congress extend
ing the time limit to keep stock on the
car without feed or water, from 2e
hours. the present limit, to 40 hours.
If this bill should become a law it can
easily be seen that the shipper will be
grea tly damaged by it.
The stOckmen Of this country have
enough to contend with by reason of
billiards., drouths and shortage OF
range, as we'll As contagious diseases,
without suffering additional hardshlps
from another increase in railroad rates.
They haYe come to realize that they
must do something for their protection
and for this reason they are organizing
in order to make their protest effective.

The Medicine Lodge Fair Association
have decided to hold the fall races Oct
Sth and 9th. 1t was the intention to
arrange tor exhibits Of agricultural,
live stock and other products and hold
a regular county fair but the season
does not seem to warrant it and hence
the affair will probably be confined to
races. The dates selected will not in-
terfere with other race meetings or
fairs.
No harness races will be run at this
meeting but the running races, on
account of the large purses raised,
promise to exceed any before given on
the Medicine Lodge track. The pro-
gram is as follows:
