For those who wish to know more
about Maxim Gorky, the Russian
writer who has put his life in peril
through his efforts in behalf of the
people before, and during the St.
Petersburg "massacre of the inno-
cents" there is detailed life to be
had in English. 1t is written by E.
]. Dillon. the well known English
traveller and journalist, who has un-
usual facilities for gathering his ma
terial, both from Gorky himself and
his friends. In view of recent events
the biography of this man-born
practically in the gutter and reared
among the lowest and most vicious
surroundings tramp until almost
middle life-who has now won him
self professorship in literature at
leading Russian university, is of pc
culiar interest. McClure's Maga-
zine.
At the republican" caucus last
Friday afternoon, S. D. Adams was
nominated for Mayor, John Wehrle,
Louis Boehler, S. M. Dorland, w.
F. Casteen and F. w. Curl were
nominated for councilmen. Clyde
Mars was nominated for police
Judge. The caucus was harmonious.
c. B. Leslie was chairman and Will
Pressly was clerk. Barney McMeel
was the only democrat present.
Adams is the present mayor and
John Wehrle and Louis Boehler are
the only old members renominated,
despite the statement of Mr.. Fuhr
that the old council was good enough
for him. He nominated two of the
new members and one of the old
members. 1t was announced that
they did not want fight so they
nominated a minor portion of the
old ticket. We do not know what
the result will be next Monday, but
so far as we are concerned we
wanted the old,council re-nominated
and reelected as we think they
rendered good service and this is
the only way we could show them
that we appreciated their services.

The county commissioners will
meet in regular session next Mon
day. We hope that our merchants
will go before the board and present
the matter of rebuilding the Cimar-
ron river bridge. Merchants, do
you realize that Meade Is losing
thousands of dollars worth of trade
every year by this bridge being gone.
Many of the farmers would rather
come to Meade if they had decent
crossing. We have been reliably
informed that ton is large load
to cross the river with and these
people cannot afford to come here
and return with so small a load.
Put in good bridge so that they
will be able to haul from 40 to 60
hundred at load and they will
come. 1t will also enable them to
haul their products to this point.
There are settlers on every quarter
of land in that country and they all
raise something, This year many
tons of broom corn were hauled to
Liberal which would have come here
had there been a suitable crossing
at the Cimarron river, Let US have
the bridge built. We need it.
