SELLING DEWEY LANDS.

Chauncey Says He's Getting Rid Of
Kansas Lands as Fast as Possible.
Chauncey Dewey, the once lord Of
certain creation in these parts, who
ran himself out Of western Kansas by
the murder Of the Berry family four
years ago, was in Topeka this week
from his home in Chicago.
A newspaper reporter asked Dewey
h he was still interested in his west
ern Kansas ranch, and he replied:
We have sold a large portion Of
our western Kansas holdings, and the
rest Of our land is on the market
Western Kansas land IS getting too
valuable for ranChing purposes, and
I would be glad to sell out all the rest
Of my holdings there 1 am through
with western Kansas"
The Topeka State Journal, which
has always made a great ado about
this man Dewey, and manages to
frame every interview in the most
glowing terms when it touches Chaun-
cey's "herOism," asked him if those
western Kansas people were still wait
ing for a chance to take a shot at him
Then the cheap reporter makes his
hero say:
NO, sir" said Dewey emphatical-
~. They leave me severely alone.
still own the Manhattan ranch. Ed
Mcbride, who was tried with me, is
foreman OF the Manhattan ranch, and
is doing well. Wilson, the other man
Of the trio. is running the Manhattan
electric light plant, and is showing
great ability in that line Of work
Those two men are both able and en-
terprislng fellows. Wilson was pro-
NOTED for gallantTy while in the
Twentieth Kansas, and Mcbride serv-
ed with credit in the regular army. It
is foolish to say that men like these
would go out and shoot people down
in cold blood"
The supreme court recently rejected
the application OF Dewey, Mcbride
and Wilson to have the charge Of
murder pending against them dismiss
been dismissed by the county attOr-
ney, but 1t was dismissed without
prejudice" which makes it possible
at any time in the future to revive
the action and bring the three men to
trial for the murder Of the Berry
family. In speaking Of this matter,
Dewey said:
1--WE have made out application to
the supreme court for a Tehearingr
and hope to get the old charge en-
tirely wiped on the books. But even
IL IL IS not, do. not have any fear Of
future trouble I do not anticipate
that anyone viii try to revive the
charge The fact IS that most OF the
vigorously are dead. The county at
tOrney, who was one Of my most bit
ter enemies went and drowned him
self, and most OF the witnesses have
also died Our witnesses, on the other
hand, are all alive, and can be gath
cred together at any time. It seems
as though the gods as we'll as the
courts, were with US in that trouble"
Dewey told the State Journal re-
porter that ne expected to make his
home from now on in Chicago, and
that while it would be necessary for
him to come out to Kansas once. in
awhile to look after his property, he
would not make this state his home
Good riddanCe OF bad rubbish!

Decision Against Lavaca
County.
=, 4 - y, =. ~ 4. !. = =.
Collected on Convict Bonds
Were just.

Halietsville, Texas, October IS.
Since the adoption of the present
constitution up to some three years
ago, all past due county convict
bonds we're placed in the hands of
the county attorney for collection,
and he was allowed 10 per cent
commission for collecting same,
making reports to commissioners
court, which was approved. The
present county attorney decided
that it was not proper to pursue
this course, and finance committee
acting on his advice went to work
and figured out the amounts each
county attorney (four in number)
since 1890 had collected in commits
sions on convict bonds.
The commissioners court was
prevailed upon to order the present
county attorney to recover these
sums of money from the four ex-
county attorneys since 1890 Final
ly the matter got into the the dist
riot court in a test case against the
ole who had collected the largest
amounts, and the case was decided
against the county, Judge Kennon
holding that the bonds had properly
come into the hands of county at
torneys and that they, for collect
ing same-whether by suit or
otherwise-were entitled to the 10
per cent commissions.
The amount involved in the case
tried was $88156.
