NO. 5.

it always did, and the same as other
papers in the county have done, as
formerly. But what hurts the gang is.
the fact that they put up law for the
benefit OF their organ and the scheme
miscarried at the polls and now 1t ap-
pears IL they can drive us out of house
and home for beating their scheme
they will be avenged.
The county commissioners say they
did not authorize the county attorney
to institute this suit. They say they
are satisfied that the charges are cor
rect but that the county attorney claims
he will collect it regardless of what
may be done or said.
1t seems little queer that the Index
Is eternally bounded by this gang. There
has never been time when they per-
mltted US to go about our business
unmolested-alwavs some action is on
tap to ruin US in a financial way. We
thought perhaps after they beat US out
OF our term Of Office they would be sat-
istied, but 1t seems not.
They want US to pay back all we re-
ceived out of the office. and then double
that. There are many other things in
the allegations that are unreasonable,
extravagant, ridiculous and impossible,
but on account of protecting our rights
we are compelled to withhold them
from publication at this time.
We did not intend to try this case in,
the newspapers but since the editor of
the Cresset, who has had a bad case of
colo ever since we put him on the hog
train in that printer race. has seen fit to-
grossly misrepresent the case, we deem
it only justice to ourselves to state the
facts.

The real animus back of the suit In
stituted against the Index cropped
out when the Cresset came out last Fri
day with two columns OF rot. 1t is real
ly too bad that Lorton was turned
down by $50 majority in the printer
race. and because we happened to be a
party to 1t, We suppose we should be
punished. But why stop at suit for
$500? Why not make it anarchy, as
agitated by the Cresset in that memora-
BILE campaign? There are some people

SOME GOOD RACES.
The Medicine Lodge Race Meeting AT.
fOrded Great Entertainment.

The race meeting in Medicine Lodge
last Thursday and Friday was fully up
to the standard of any held anywhere.
The association secured some of the
best speed that has exhibited anywhere
In the state and the races were very
entertaining.
There was only one incident to mar
the meeting at all. That was the last
race on Friday evening. Flaxey B, the
fastest runner entered. was held by her
rider and the judges promptly ruled
her out OF the race and declared all bets
on her, off. Those who had money on
her were especially wrathy, but the
judges action gave entire satisfaction
and won the applause of the crowd.
The following were the winners:
FIRST DAY.

will be in Flaxey BIS. class.

This was the last race of the meeting,
and on account of the lob" put up on
Flaxey 1T was severely criticised.
The hippOdrome races-one each day
were very interesting. There were
no purses. They were employed by the
association purely for the benefit of the
spectators.
From financial standpoint the as.
sociation is behind. The gate receipts
were 1924 and other privileges did not
net great deal. 1t requires a great
deal Of money to maintain race track
and Fair Association and it is hardly
expected that meeting, especially in
such a busy season, could sustain itself.
The attendance, however, was better
than expected.
