Three quarter sections OF land pear
Ransom, owned by John Snodgrass,
was sold few days ago for what is
perhaps the largest figures ever re-
'ceived for Ness county land. The
price paid was $1,000, or little over.
So, 900 per quarter section. and the i'm
provements on the place would scarce
fy exceed 81 500 all told. What makes
the sale of special significance is the
fact that the land was bought by an
old resident of the county and one of
Ness county's most successful farmers,
Chas. Horchem, who knows thorough
Iy its value, having proven it by his
own experience. Mr.. Horchem, who
has become moderately wealthy rais-
ing wheat on an adjoining farm to this
land, must be credited with fully I'M
Outstanding what he is doing and the
transaction is quite different that the
effecting of such a sale to eastern
parties coming from where land values
are much higher; the money with
which he purchased this land was
made raising wheat on the land be-
side It, Such men as Mr.. Herchem
the soil of the wheat belt of Western
Kansas, and it is men who recognize
the true value, as does he who are
preparing to realize the benefits from
it. AS fast as he became able he has
added to his land possessions, picking
it up at low prices wnen values were
down and paving what increased
values made it, necessary to pay when
prices went up,s and all the time max
ing use of the land he, had instead of
taking spasmodic chances on the sea-
sons as was the practice with many;
"A fewsyears ago when the land price
lever slipped ius a notch from the bot
tom of the ratchet where it had been
held since the failure of 1898, people
generally wouldn't touch it as they
thought il had been boosted above its
value. Later as it continued to 20 up
| they realized their mistake and wish
ed they had taken in some at the
former values but still thinking it too
high at the new figures, and so it has
continued as the value steadily raised
while men like Mr.. Horchem, vino
| realized its real value took it up as
fast as possible. Now we are apt to
consider the price paid for this land
as out of all proportion to the actual
value of land in tins part of the coun-
try while in a few years it will proba-
bly, be considered as bargain which
would be readily grasped by anyone

PARDONS
GAUCHAN
RELIEVES HIM FROM FINE AND
JAIL SENTENCE FOR RUNNING A
SLOT MACHINE.
UPON PETITION WEST VIRGINIA
PARDON BoaaD UNANIMOUSLY
RECOMMENDED THE PARDON.
Action Was Based Largely on the Fact
That at Time of Conviction Question
Was Not Settled As to Slot Machines
Being Gambling Devices.

Homer w. Williams, clerk of the cir
cult court of Harrison county is in re-
ceipt of an official communication, ac-
companied by paper of importance to
the one most concerned, giving the in
formation that Frank Gaughan, of this
city, has been pardoned by the governor.
Gnughan was convicted at the january
term last of the circuit court here oil
operating a slot machine. a iine OF
5000 was imposed and he was given a
jail sentence of three months. Judg
ment was suspended pending an appeal
to the state supreme court and about
the close of the last term of circuit
court the state court passed ON the mat
ter, affirming the Judgment OF the court
below. Gaugiran had previously giyer
bond for tine September term and he was
not put in jail on, that account.
A petition was circulated and sent IL
to the West Virginia pardon board
which passed on the question August )
unanimously recommending a pardon
and on the ninth day of August, as the
result Of the recommendation, Governor
Whitet directed that pardon issue.
BY the pardon he is relieved from the
payment of the fine and the Jail sen
tencc. but he Is required to pay the
costs OF prosecution.
The action of the pardon board and
the governor was governed largely by
the fact that at the time the offense
was committed the question as tc
wnether slot machine was gambling
device had not been settled by the SUI.
preme court of the state.
