NO MORE MONTHLY DRAWINGS.
This Action Taken as a Result of
 Ruling by Judge Tillman.


 There will be no more monthly drawings in Springdale, and the drawing set for April Is has been called off. This action was talk en as the result of a ruling by Circuit Judge Tillmau, who holds that anyone who conducts a gift enterprise of any character what ever where the element of chance induces anyone to make pur- chase may be indicted" The business men of Springdale have no desire to be placed in the at titude of violating any law, either h spirit or letter, and so there is nothing to do but abandon the enterprise. The probabilities are that some other plan will be de- ylsed-a monthly salesday, or some such feature-for the bene- lit of the country people who trade in Springdale. So keep your eye on Springdale.

AN OLD METHOD JUST TRIED.

A provision which has heretofore
been regarded as a dead letter on the
statute books has been resurrected in
Brown county, and Judge Stuart is en-
forcing it with telling effect. If similar
action We're taken in other counties it
is not fmprobabl that a large number
of the city officials in Kansas would be
subject to a fine.
W ". Letson was mayor of Horton
for four years, receiving the munifcent
salary of two dollars a year. for his SER
vices as such. There is a provision on
the Kansas statute books which says
that the mayor marshal, police judge
or constable of any town in the state
shall give information to the county
attorney of any violations of the pro-
hibitory law that he knows anything
Of and if he fails to do so he is sub
ject to a fine and he must forfeit his
Office
During Mayor Lessons administra-
ton Horton had licensed Joints, which,
Of course, means "A violation of the
state law. Letson. like nearly every
other mayor in the state. paid no at
tention to giving information to the
county attorney. He knew, Of course,
that the joints were running. Finally
a row was stirred up and an action was
brought against Letson under the pro-
vision specified. He was convicted in
the district court and Judge Stuart
fined him SlOl.
It looks as though this is another
strong weapon to force unwilling Off
GERS to do their duty and not compro-
mise with law breakers There can be
no system of fines without certain city
officers knowing about it. and If they
know Of it they are liable to a fine If
they do not notify the county attorney.
The latter officer is then subject to Sc
we're penalties if he does not try to
punish the offenders of whom he has
been informed.
It is a little tough on Mayor Letson,
] but he allowed the law to be broken
without. performing his own duty in the
matter, and now he must face the pen
atty. He happens to be the man Of
whom an example is made

REAPTNG TIE HARVEST.

AS a result Of the spirit of lawlessness
that accompanies the whisky busi-
ness, a young man, little more than
boy, is charged in the Shawnee county
courts with attempted murder. and his
victim is lowering between life and
death on hospital cot. In a dispute
which was hardly serious, the young
man tried to take the life of a drunken
man.
The action of Charles Davis. the
young man, was hardly surprising how
ever: It was the way he was evidently
brought up. He seems to have been ed
ucated to believe that It is not neees-
sary to respect law. He was employed
in a resort of which his father was the
proprietor, the object of which seems
to be to evade a law. He broke another
law by carrying a revolver on his per-
son.
There seems to have been no possible
excuse for the shooting. Harris. the
drunken man with whom Davis had his
alteration, attempted to get into the
resort; Davis went. out to drive him
away. Harris is said to have been
leaving when Davis shot him. Even
had Davis been in danger Of attack
from Harris, he could have easily es-
capped by stepping inside the door. IN
stead he pulled out a revolver and shot
a fellow being.
One of the worst things about the
joint business is the lawlessness it
breeds. AS Governor Folk pointed out
in a speech a few days ago, if one man
is allowed to pick certain laws that he
will not respect and obey. it will not be
surprising If his neighbor also picks out
certain laws to break. If the jointist is
allowed to break one law with impuni-
ty, he sees no reason why he should not
break another when occasion demands,
just as young Davis did.
Last Fridays shooting ARRAY in To
pelza was the outgrowth of whisky on
both sides. It had taught young Davis
to be a law breaker and to place a light
value on the life of a fellow man. It
took away the sense of Harris, the vic
tim, and made him quarrelsome and ir-
responsible. Both are now reaping or
will reap the harvest they have sown.
