Bold Robbery.

The millinery store of Mrs. K, ].
Shuck & Co. on Main street was bur
glarized last Monday night. The
robber broke open the back door.
Mr.. C. w. Rentz, a member Of the
firm, estimates the quantity of goods
stolen at $4,000. He says some
children's cloaks, children's plush
jackets, zephyr goods, and silks are
missing. ..
Mr.. E. Dickinson, night marshal,
feels sure the robbery was commit
ted by a suspicious white man who
had been in town for several days,
claiming to be secret service man
and looking for army deserters. Mr..
Dickinson told him that night that
he was under suspicion and unless he
could give some sort Of account OF
himself he would be locked up. The
fellow said he had secured a room
with the sheriff for the night, but
Mr.. Dickinson was still suspicious
and 'phoned the sheriff, who replied
that the statement of the stranger
was not true. The marshal then be-
gan to hunt him up, and some gentle
men later in the night reported that
they saw a'white man at the back
door of the store of 0. D. Faust, Jr.,
who ran when discovered. Several
parties with the marshal pursued the
man, but lost him in the darkness.
Nothing more was seen of him, but
Mr.. Dickinson is satisfied that the
robbery was committed just before or
about the time of the arrival Of the
3 o'clock trains. They met here and
stayed some time, and the fellow no
doub got away on the train going
up, as the rear end of it was near
the Methodist church. Mr.. Rentz
offers a reward of $1O0 for the cap
ture and conviction of the robbers.
There is a suspicion that there may
be accomplice.

Commissioners Meet

The County Commissioners met
Monday as a board Of equalization
and it is gratifying to learn that
the taxable valuation of property
has just about doubled in Quay
county this year. The valuation
last year was a little more than
S5oo,ooo, while at present it is
$4,000, the town of Tucumcari
still having nearly half the total
valuation, the exact amount of
property returned in the city being
S353,ooo. We are told that con-
siderable cash has been returned,
one farmer giving in for taxation
$4,000, and others amounts rang
ing from a hundred to a thousand
and better. Property valuations
were raised in many instances and
considerable other business was
transacted.
The road question took up some
time, and we believe the situation
Of a south road to Puerto was sat
isfactorily disposed Of. The Pc
titioners were asking for a road
from Tucumcari to Puerto that
it seems had been fixed by a pre-
vious board of Quay County Com.
missioners, and when the matter
was understood by the petitionesr
everybody was satisfied, the COM
missioners Of course ordering all
distractions removed.

In the matter Of a public road

settlement of the legal phases Of
the question, the county and our
people have done all they could.

THAT'S RIGHT, READ.

Socialists do not ask you TO vote their
ticket. They ask you to read and under
stand Socialism. knowing that you will vote
intelligently for your own interests. Those
who do not want you to read up on the
subject have a reason. Get wise. -Girard,
Kansas, Appeal to (T)reason.
1t is a good theory, that the peo-
pie should read and inform them
selves politically and otherwise,
and that is exactly the way the
republican party accounts for the
election of Roosevelt in 1904 by
the million and a half majority of
American free ballots. Read, that's
right, and as the people become
more thoroughly acquainted with
correct political economy, even the
cotton states will begin to vote the
republican ticket. On the other
hand, the more the people know
OF the impossible and absurd the
DRY Of the Socialist in his effort to
ruin the republic and trail in the
dust our constitution, a sacred in
heritance handed down by our
fathers, the less harmful will
become the blatant excrement
which flows from the pen of the
big chief of the medicine men at
Girard, Kansas.

Located the Wrong Claim

J. {. Scott, a h~omeseeker who
came to Quay county a short time
ago, located a homestead near
Quay and returned east after his
family and household effects. After
starting to work he finds that his
land is not where the bought it
was, and that his description calls
for 100 acres of worthless stuff
some miles away. Scott is now
without a home, can't locate an
other until things are corrected;
the parties filing him, the locator
and the land office have his money
and in return he has nothing.
There is going to be too much of
this kind Of business when home
stead lines are surveyed and the
settler finds where he belongs.
