ADVANCEMENT

Prof. Hill, of the State Normal
school, has been appointed Presl
dent of that institution by recent
action of the board of regents.
President Hill is one of natures
true nobiemen and deserving OF
every good thing this life can afford,
He started in life, it seems but a
few years ago, IN Emporia, poor
BOY, bent on securing an education
and breaking away from his boy
mood environments. His life has
ever been onward and upward, pure
as gold and firm as steel in the right.
He has been connected with the
normal ali his life. He has now
reached its head, where we expeci
him to remain for many years to
come.
He merits the place and has fully
earned it. His life work has been
a preparation for the place.
We expect great things of Prof
Hill.

ing we are satisfied that Gov. Hoch
made no mistake in making him
senator.
He is man who lives and acts on
high plane of morality and up
rightness, and is broadminded and
tireless worker.
He will make a very formidable
candidate bfeore the legislature next
winter and may be the solution of
the muddle into which the senatorial
succession seems to be drifting.
Benson is probably the man on
whom the waring factions can unite
without doing such violence to their
feelings, as it would to see either of
the present candidates selected.
Gov. Hoch surely got happily
out of a most trying position.
The old senatorial candidates pre-
tend that Mr.. Benson's appointment
is very satisfactory, but our opinion
is that they will find him a power to
reckon with and will wish Coburn
had accepted before they get through
with the campaign.

POLITICAL MAVERICKS

Freeman Miller, editor of the
Stilwell Peoples Progress, prints this
fable: Once upon Time there was
Wild Steer Running Loose on the
Range. He had never Been Roped
nor Branded, and In his Maverick
Condition he called No man his
master. When the Grazing was out
of Sight In its Richness, he became
as sleek and Fat as a Mullygrub in
the Sweet Days of Spring, and ca
vorted over the Plains with his Tail
raised high in the atmosphere and
raising Cloud of Dust like Kan
sas cyclone. And when the Grub
box got to looking like Thirty cents,
he Hunted through the secluded
Places and Managed to make out, 50
that he Showed up Fat and Sassy
when the May baskets Got Ripe.
This Maverick was all the Time
making Monkeys out o: Other Cattle
on the Range. They frequently Re-
preached him for his wild, Free
Ways; but he gave the Whole Push
the Merry Ha-Ha, and Always ST.
fenced Advisory Remarks when he
innocently wanted to Know just when
the Present Roundup would be Over,
and they would walk up to the Load
ing Chute and Deliver the Goods.
BY and Big the Boss of the Big
Herds Noticed the wild Maverick,
and at once Decided he was a DIS
turbing Factor on the Range. The
Maverick had broken up severa
Great Roundups and Stampedec
Herds back to Freedom on the Open
Plains, just when it was the APP
pointed Time to Use the Cattle FL
All They we're worth. So the Boss
of the Big Herd issued Positive
Orders to Rope the Wild Maverick

lola,s $4,000 Libel Suit


Suit for 10000 damages was filed in
the district court, at lola, Saturday,
by John Counterman, against W. Y.
Tedts, A. P. Harris and f. w. Brew
ster, proprietors of the lola Daily Re-
cord, for damages resulting from an
alleged 1ioelous article published in
their paper on June 4th.
Mr.. Counterman il weighmaster at
the Lanyon Smelter works and has
held the position for three years. The
alleged libelous article which is cited
10 the petition is as follows:
John Counterman, the white man
who is in Jail for immoral conduct
with Hulda Richardson, negro woman
is years of age, has received a letter
| from his sweetheart" in which she
says that her heart Is breaking. She
explains that she did not wish to make
trouble in her attempt to secure IL
cense but that she thought she could
| get him out of Jail if they were nar-
cied. When Tailor Kingsley asked
Jounterman if he wished to marry the
woman the man would not answer Gi
rectly, saying thai he was without
money. 1t is said that his relatives
will take steps to have COunterman
sent to an asylum if he PERSISTS in his
love making with colored woman"
The Record seems to have cotton
the names John" and Henry" mixed
tnd made the article read John
Jounterman" instead of Henry
Jounterman."
The Record in it's answer says in
part: We regret, of course, that the
uame should have been used, but it
contends that no reasonable man
would have suspected that John CouI-
erman was in jail when they saw him
Walking along the street or at his reg
Ilar employment. OF course, the idea
hat it was malicious is absurd, No
person connected with the Record so
ar as we have heard, has the pleasure
If John Counterman's acquaintance
tnd certainly they could have had no
iesre to injure man they never
Knew existed.
The facts are that Henry Counter
nan was arrested for immoral be
Iavior with Hulda Richardson. The
Record TOLD the story at the time and
ave the name Of Henry Counterman
Sour separate articles appeared about
lie case. All of them with the ex
ception of the last used the name OF
Henry Counterma1. In the last by
.ome unfortunate error the name of
John Counterman was used. But
every one knew that Henry Counte.-
man was meant.
John Counterman never came near
the Record office asking for a correct
ion of the article. The Record is not
free from mistakes. but in handling
hundreds Of names every day the most
scrupulous care will not always avoid
errors, But the Record has never re-
fused to cheerfuly correct any error
aud Mr.. CounJerman could have had
a correction cheerfOlly had he called
our attention to the error-much
easier than getting &c. 900.
