We are again with you, after an
absence of several weeks visiting in
Oklahoma. We have been able to
note great many changes in the
country since 1900. At that time
we were over the same territory and

provements are going on in fine
shape.
Everybody is getting ready for

From recent reports from various
sections it seems that the new survey

road, will leave Meade in the cold.
This will be deadener for that town

means to be off the railroad. While
we are sorry to see Meade lose the

obsolete.-Beaver Herald.

The Soldier Vote.

We have been investigating the re-
port recently published in the Dodge
City Democrat, relative to the as
sertion by an inmate of the home
that ballots had been sent there from
Meade county after the election.
The records of the express Office
here show that the package left here
on the 5th and the Office at Dodge
says that the package arrived there
the 5th and that the officer at the
home was notified Immediately but
did not send for the ballots until the
afternoon of Nov, 9Th which was
election day. 1t seems that the Of
ficers of the home were in no hurry
for the ballots, or that they did care,
as the supreme court had made a
ruling that all who were inmates of
the home and had come there to
stay were expected to vote as it was
their home [Cory VS.. Spencer 73
Pac. Rep. 9ao] is the decision under
which the commander decided to
not hold any local election. All the
soldiers who cared to were permitted
to go to the places where they claim
ed residence and cast their ballots.
After all our Investigations we have
concluded that no one is guilty of
anything wrong in the matter. The
ballots were sent in the proper time,
and the home concluded to be a part
of Ford county. There are about
125 votes at the home and among
this number there are less than half
a dozen democrats. The republican
politicians of Ford county might
possibly have had hand in the mat
ter, in order to make Ford county
safely republican. And it was so.
