Many Of these close resemblaaces

Then there are accidental resem-

The COUNTY FAIR DATES, 1906.
Possibility Of Much Better Racing
Features Than Ever Before.

Unless the plans of the fair,
secretaries who met at Wichita
Friday go for naught, Great Bend
people will, the home association
permitting, see more and better
racing than ever. For some years
there have been two circuits in
southern and western Kansas, and
at the recent netting plan was
adopted uniting the two into one
circuit, under one management,
but with two strings of meetings.
This latter part would be the
same as heretofore, but under the
one management the meetings will
be arranged with less conflict than
formerly. If the plan goes throug,
the Barton County Fair will be
held the week of September Bird,
one week later than this year.
The meeting at Wichita also re-
commended a uniform series of
classes for all local associations to
adopt, and at an adjourned meet
ing to be held at Wichita on the
Goth, the organization will be
made permanent and get ready for
business.
The outlook for next seasons
fair business is at this time excel
lent, and if all other things are
equal, Barton county will have as
good or better fair than last year,
with less grief on the part of the
management to get it. We must
all work together however and
not fall into the errors of some of
the associations, and snap at an
others heels.

DUMONT Smith INDICTED.
Charged With Giving Bride TO Gov.
erlmelt Official.

Topeka, Has, Dec. 1S.-The
story as set forth in the indict-
ment of Smith, Wilson and Ryan,
returned by the grand jury last
Saturday is as follows:
1t is said that w. A. Hannah
made a fraudulent entry of land
in Hodgeman county. He was
tried before the United States
court in Wichita at the last term
there and was given a small fine.
George Montague is said to have
perjured himself as he was one of
the witnesses to the papers which
Hannah filed. p. A. Palmer was
the probate Judge of Hodgeman
county and Charles J. Johnston
was one of the couny commission
ers. Palmer made out the papers
for Hanna and Johnston was con-
nected with same land deal.
1t is said that Wilson became
acquainted with the matter be-
fore Hannah was tried at Wichita
and also knew of some entries
which were reported to be a little
off color" He talked with
Smith and then he notified Palmer,
Montague, Johnston, Hannah and
man named Steele to call on him.
In the meantime Smith and Will
son had had a talk with RYAN.
1t is said that Wilson told the
men that he was acquainted with
the fact that they had been impli-
Gated in questionable land deal
and that the best thing they could
do was to fix it up. He said that
he could have this done for an
amount which varies, accordinn
TO the testimony of the witnesses,
from $1,000 to $4,000. The men
were assessed and they turned in
money to Smith and Wilson, the
greater number of checks being
given to Senator Smith, so it is
SAID. Montague who, it is alleged,
had perjured himself, was touch
ed for 500. Steele backed out
and did not pay anything.
According to the indictment the
money received was divided be-
tween Smith, Wilson and Ryan.

JAPANESE FOR TEXAS.
A Urge Colony To Be Located Near
San Antonio.

A large syndicate in Japan has
entered or. the business OF colo
nizing in Texas and other south
ern states Japanese families from
those parts of Japan where tea
and silk industries lead. The
agent of the syndicate, Mr.. Aki-
Oki, was a visitor at the depart
ment of agriculture yesterday seek
ing a great variety of information
in regard to the9climate and re-
sources of the Lone Star state.
He left for Toxic to conduct the
first colony across the Pacific to
their new homecin this country.
There will be three hundred
families IN the party and Mr..
Akioki has bought for them a
tract of ten thousandacres in Bee
county. He showed the deeds to
the officials at the department of
agriculture and described the tract
as possessing all the natural ad-
Vantags desired for the tea farms
and silk raising. The mulberry
tree grows everywhere in the
region to a great size and thrives
finely. San Antonio is the nearest
town to the proposed colony and
the expectation is that the new
corners will make good citizens
and intermarry with their Texan
neighbors. 1t appears from what
Mr.. Akioki said that there are
many Japanese who desire to

II Is What You Make II.

1t seems hard to get the people
of a community to understand
that the little home paper is what
they make it. The brains of a
Webster could not improve on the
average weekly without the CO.
operation of all patrons and those
who should rightly be classed as
friends. If you feel an interest
in seeing the paper what it should
be, send in the local happenings
from your neighborhood. To be
sure, the items sent by you won't
be news to you, but they will be
to your neighbor, and his will be
news to you. There is very little
of the spiritual in the makeup of
the average editor he is just like
the rest of the weary mortals here
below-he cannot be everywhere
at the same time; consequently, if
you don't send them in, some very
important news items are bound
to be overlooked. We want the
news, our readers also want it
if you haven't a page full, send a
single item: 1t will be appreciat-
ed both by us and our readers. =

A CRASH IN Three
CHICAGO BANKS.
The Old Story Of Speculation With
The Peoples Money.
MANY MILLIONS INVOLVED.

Chicago, Ills, Dec. 1S.-The
Chicago National Bank, Home
Savings Bank, and Equitable
Trust Company, three institutions
controlled largely by John R.
Walsh, did not open for business
today.
The Chicago Clearing House,
after a twelve hours session, this
morning announced that these
institutions we're bankrupt, but
that the Chicago associated banks
guaranteed every liability and
would pay every claim.
Hundreds of people gathered at
the building sheltering the defunct
institutions. Walsh had been
rated as one of the wealthiest men
in Chicago. Private specutations
and operations in railroads, coal
lands, quarries and other side lines
caused the financial collapse.
The Chicago National will be
| placed in the hand, of a receiver.
The Savings and Trust companies
are to go into the states hands.
The total liabilities of the three
institutions are given as twenty
six millions of dollars. Walsh and
his associates have turned over
tree millions. Local banks, it is
stated, will make up the deficit be-
tween the assets and liabilities, if
Cilefe DE any.
j. G. Cooper in speaking of
Walsh said: The deDositors will
be paid in full. The loss, if any,
will fall upon the stockholders. :"
DepOsitors formed a long line this
morning and we've paid in checks
on other banks.
Comptroller Ridgely, who has
been here the past three days,
said the trouble was caused by
Walsh making large loans to in
dustrial and railway enterprises.
Walsh once owned the Evening
Times and Evening Post. He
sold both and then acquired the
Chicago Chronicle, which he still
CONTROLS, The promotion of the
Southern Indiana K. K. is blamed
largely for the collapse. The
Chicago National has been a factor
in Chicago politics for many
years.
The Chicago National had
about fifteen millions in deposits
when the last statement was made.
The Home Savings nearly four
millions. Walsh resigned as the
president OF the former bank today.
At noon the line of depositors
extended a block each way from
the banks.
