EDITOR TRIBUNE: Will you
give space in your valuable paper
to a business mans kick? | was
notified last Wednesday to remove
merchandise from IN front Of my
store by the marshal, who stated
that the council was getting after
him for allowing it. visited per
sonally a majority of the city
council and they knew nothing
about the kick. next talked with
His Honor, the Mayor, and he
said complaint had been made to
him. ! have since found out who
made the complaint. 1t is deal
er in buggies. His Honor also
deals in bugg;es. When ! began
to sell buggies last week and had
one Oh the outside of the brick
walk, in front Of my store, the firm
who made complaint had merchan
disc IN front OF their store, and two
of the councilmen had merchandise
in front of their stores. Why am
l Disseminated against in this
manner when gambling is almost
public IN La Junta; where prosti-
tutes are publicly known to be ale
flowed to ply their unfortunate call
ing; where obscene pictures and
slot machines are allowed in the
saloons; where the drug stores re-
tail whisky and beer ~ long as
your money lasts or your credit is
good; where the saloons sell on
Sundays by the side door route
surely a man that works as hard as
I do ought to be allowed to make
an honest living, in . legitimate
way. My record is clear and hon
oTable, having brought with me .
clear record from my home lodge
Masonic, which consider the best
recommend . man can have wher-
ever he goes. Let the mayor and
council move all merchandise from
the front of every store, and not
discriminate against any one citi-
zen, is my prayer.
Respectfully,
p. w. KIRwAN.

very much interested in the Re-
publican homin aiion for sheriff.
l, vas generally known that sheriff
Barr did not want to make the
race, and the democrats were
jubilapt in the hope that he would
refuse to run, declaring that they
had a candidate who could beat
any man in the county but Barr.
Sheriff Barr has been and is an
ideal sheriff He looks the part,
and that is a very essential qualifi
cation in peace officer. He has
been thorough and honest in his
work In fact, Otero county never
had a sheriff who was more cam
petent or who discharged the
duties of his Office more conscien.
tiously. Law breakers, OF what
soeveI description, need not hope
for nor expect any favors at his
hands He will be elected TO snc-
ceed himself without a question il
competency and faithful and eco
nomical service are appreciated by
the voters of Otero county.
George Barr was born July 2o,
1859, in Chillicothe. Ohio. where
he lived on a farm and went to
school until he became Of age. In
1880 he took Horace Greeley's ad-
vice and came west to grow up
with the county, settling in Fie-
donia, Kan, and working on
farm in that vicinity until the fall
OF 1885 In that year he moved
to Syracuse, Kan taking claim.
After four years trial he came to
the conclusion that western Kan
sas WAS doomed to be desert
waste until Gabriel blows his last
trump, and in 1889 Came to La
Junta. He secured his first job
with the English Lumber Com
pany, who established yard in
La Iunta that year In the spring
of 1890 he went to work for the
Santa Fe, remaining in the service
OF the company until the fall Of
1893; when lie was appointed mar
shal OF La unta to fill vacancy.
He held the Office Of marshal until
the spring Of 1896, when he again
entered the service Of the Santa
Fe, working in the blacksmith
shop until the fall Of 1897, when
he was nominated by the Republi-
cans of Otero county to make the
race for sheriff. He resigned from
the service of the Santa Fe in
October and made an active and
vigorous campaign, being elected
by a plurality OF 274. After his
election in November, he again
went to work for the Santa Fe in
the blacksmith shop, remaining
with the company until he ASSUME
ed the duties Of his Office, January
4, 1895. In 1899, was he nominated
by acclamation to succeed himself,
and was elected over A. c. Ken
nedy, the cinch fusion candidate,
by . majority Of 4oI. the largest
majority received by any RePubl,-
can candidate that year. In 1901,
Sheriff Barr was again re-nom,nat-
ed by acclamation. and defeated
H. w. Potter, the Democratic can
didate by = majority Of a79.
Sheriff Barr was nominated by
the Republicans Of Otero county
last month for the fourth time by
acclamation, which is the best evil
ience Of the esteem in which he is
held by his party friends. and on

SAD REVELATION.
Morrison County Man Sent
to Prison Without
Parents knowledge

people well known in this city. is In
the Saltwater state ssprison under SEN
tence of three and one-half years for
badly cutting tramps in a row. The
following is from the Crookston Jour-
nal of Saturday:
Until this week ignorant of the
whe, ca bouts of their son George, and
thinking him roamer in the wide
world, enjoying life, Mr.. and Mrs.
DeMars, we'll to do and respected resi-
dents ct Little Falls, have been
brought face to face with the fact
that their boy, George, favorite
son, but severe trial to the family
household. is an intimate of Stillwat-
er prison and that he was sent up
from this city at the last term of
court for slashiag number Of hoboes
with jacknife in most horrible
manner during the progress Of a no.
DO row in the hobo camping grounds
north of the G. N. depot.
Yesterday Clerk of Court Lancott
received communication from
Messrs. Lindbergh ard Blanchard, at
torneys of Little Falls, in which in
formation il regard to the arrest, in
dictment and trial of George DeMars
is asked for. The letter goes on to say
that Mr.. and Mrs. DeMars, parents of
the imprisoned, wayward young man,
are we'll to do, highly respected citi-
zens of Little Falls and that they
have until the last few days been to-
tally ignorant of their sons where
abouts. Personal pride is supposed to-
have sealed the young mans mouth
while in Jail here and while upon
trial, as he would not reveal the
whereabouts of home folks or kin.
The plight of their off spring
Is severe blov to Mr.. and Mrs. De-
Mars and the disgrace of having
favorite member of the family in the
state prison doing time is felt very
keenly by them. They will, however.
do all in their power for the young
man and may be the means of having
his term shortened up considerably.
