Two Kansas Dogs.

Friend, Neb., Oct 22.-Three
rounds were run in the futurity stake
at the park of the Friend CoursIng
club Friday, bringing the race down
to semi-finals. The slower dogs were
beaten out in the preliminary rounds,
bringing increased interests as the
faster hounds competed. A heavy
wind handicapped the dogs and con-
ditions were unfavorable. With the
faster dogs racing fewer hareS reach ID
the escapes. Mr.. Brindle, a Butte,
Mont, hound, made the best showing,
beating three competitors who had
been picked to race in the last two
rounds.
Two dogs from Montana and two
from Kansas are still in the contest.

COLEMAN AND KELLY.
General Bristow Links Their Names
Together.

Joseph L. Bristow'S Salina paper, the
Salina Journal, criticises Attorney Cen
eral Coleman because of his effort to
avoid prosecuting T. T. Kelly. 1t makes
the point that because the evidence
against Kelly may be hard to get is no
reason why he should not be prosecuted
for his crime. When an ordinary thief
is caught he is arrested cas- soon as pos
Sible and the evidence against him is
worked up afterwards. ME-. Coleman
has the positive proof of Kelly's embez-
Elements. In one case he cannot even
make the excuse that the evidence is
hard to get, for the sworn evidence is
already on file in the courts.
The Salina Journals comments on
the subject are as follows:
1T is to be regretted that Attorney
General Coleman fails to rise to tn e
situation and do what seems to be
plainly his duty in regard to the Kelly
case. Dishonesty in public Office is
never to be condoned. and no official
occupying the position of General
Coleman can afford to pass up such
an act as Mr.. Kelly is charged with
without himself suffering criticism
Mr.. Coleman's excuse that the evil
dence is difficult to get does not excuse
him, 1t is his duty to attempt to secure
that evidence and at all events bring
Tom Kelly into court and put every
part of the machinery of his Office into
motion to get at the bottom of the
facts in connection with tbs dishonest
transactions of which Mr.. Kelly is
charged in the public press. Space in
the newspapers is not the place to try
this case, although they would be
derelict in their duties if they failed to
discuss the question, but it must re-
main for the courts to convict or clear
Tom Kelly of the charges that hang
over him.
1T is to be hoped that General Cole
man will yet bring this matter into
court and if Mr.. Kelly is innocent of
the charges he will have nothing to
fear from an appearance in court and
thorough investigation and it is only
through such proceedings that his own
character can be established Mr.. Kelly
is more interested than any others in
having the courts pass upon his case
and he should be the one to demand
it.
IF the attorney general will do his
duty Tom Kelly can get into court
without trying to lick the state ac-
countant as he has threatened to do as
soon as the accountant gets big
enough"
Mr.. Coleman. refuses to prosecute
Tom Kelly under criminal charge and
now that Kelly has. called Accountant
Rowett a liar he probably considers the
state treasury matter settled Mr.
Kelly probably thinks that he has done
all that is necessary to establish his
honesty.

The ditch is ours, and in the future
irrigation matters on the West Side of
Hood River valley will be in the hands
of the people who use the water. 1t
will not be question of "Are they 60
ing to provide us with water and at
what price?" but we have the satisfac-
tion of saying that we are going to
have all the water we want at the ac-
tual cost, basing the investment on low
interest rates. The Valley Improve

ferred to the people Monday, February

not be arranged before Saturday, March
