BRINGS HIM TO LIFE.
Governor Hoch Restores Man Who
Was Legally Dead.


A man who has for so years been
legally dead was today resurrected BY
the magic touch of Governor
Hoch- The name of the Lazarus was
John r. Hurst. a man of part Indian
blood, who was sent to prison in 1874
from Labette county. He esrved
short term for a felony and was re-
leased, But the ceremony of restoring
him to citizenship was somehow neg
lected- Under the constitution. it is
necessary for the governor to restore
TO citizenship a man who has been in
the penitentiary for felony.
Hurst did not seem to mind being
legally dead. and says In his letter to
Governor HOch that he never ex-
pected to apply for restoration to cfti-
zenship. But some of his friends be
came involved in difficulties about
their title to lands. and Hursts testi-
mony was necessary to help them out.
In order to give this testimony he had
to get his pardon from the governor,
and this pardon was granted today.

ANTT-INJUNCTTON BILL

This has been pushed hard before
Congress by the Labor leaders. It is a.
bill to take away from the courts any
right to issue a restraining order to pre-
vent the commission of crime. Under
the present wise laws for the protection
of life and property, when it seems
clear that striking Union men, bandits,
and outlaws plan to attack other men
or destroy property. the court can issue
an order or INDUCTION commanding them
to desist or refrain from doing such
unlawful act This has been a great
preventative of crime and can never
harm any peaceable person. but the
'sIJnion" have the appalling impudence
to ask Congress to pass a bill to tie the
hands of every court and thus allow the
Union strikers full sway to assault,

hindrance. Does the anarchist spirit

OPPOSE POLICE

When a manufacturer cannot afford
to pay the price asked for labor, the
unions, in order to force him, go on
strike, picket, boycott, riot and set up
general disorder. Then the police are
called in to preserve peace. There has
been no disorder by the man who buys
labor. 1t is only caused by the men
who have labor to sell and who become
outlaws and bandits under the leader
ship of anarchists. The police are hired
by the peoples money to protect the
community but when these peace Off
GERS appear do the Unions show gen.
uine American citizenship, and that de-
sire for peace, and the maintenance of
the peoples laws that marks the true
man and patriot? Never! They hiss
and stone the police. shoot them when
they dare, and when ripped into a
semblance of decency loudly protest in
every possible way against the pres
ence of police, sheriffs. Militia or Reg
ulars. Why? Only one reason, they
want to commit crimes and hate any
thing or anyone that checks them.
