New County jail.

The new Jail building is now COM
pleted and ready to be turned over
to the county, and the people OF
Prowers county can at last congra-
tulate themselves that they have at
least one county building that is up-
to.date and in keeping with the
growth and prosperity Of this Sec
ton.
The new building has been pro-
nounced by experts to be as safe as
it is possible to make it, and not
only will it be easy to keep prison
ers in, but q right minded sheriff
can just as easily keep 9 mob out.
1t is fitted up with all the modern
oonveniences for safety and sani-
tary purposes, and will be . big i'm
provement and saving to the county
in handling its prisoners.
The building is SO arranged that
women and juvenile prisoners can
be kept entirely separated from the
other inmates. It is handsomely
and strongly constructed, and the
steel work is the best made for the
purpose. The floor between the
first and second stories is of rein
forced cement. This building has
for years been one of the greatest
needs of Prowers county, and it is
. good thing that we have a board
OF commissioners progressive enough
70 build intelligently and with q
view to both the present and future
needs Of the county.

90 YEARS AGO
Notes from The Lamar Register Of
Aug. 27, 1887

The first watermelon of the season
WAS brought to the Register office
by Henry Kolk.
Mr.. Magill has paper at Lamar,
one at Granada, one at Albany, one
at Cimarron, Kansas, and others to
be started. Knowing this our peo-
pie are wondering which town he
will work the hardest.
Lamar's first amateur theatrical
troupe was organized. E. L. Koen
is tho only member still manning
here.
j. I. Lawless, from Kinsley, Kan
sas, is q new print in the Sparks
office.
An article on the water works Just
then building through q typogra.

Of the article.

right to take life they have no right
to make war, and therefore no right
to exist, as no present day govern
ment has been attained through any
means but war.
The Register would be willing to
see capital punishment abolished il
at the same time the power OF par
don in cases Of murder in the first
degree was taken away from the
governors, but as it is today society
has no other protection but capital
punishment against such criminals
as johnson.
We believe the jury was right, and
if johnson lives to be fifty years Of
age he will be free and able to take
mp again his career of crime.

Jonnson's Sentence COMMITTED

Governor Harper last Friday COM
muted the sentence of Andrew John
son, who killed Marshal Frisbie last
December, to imprisonment for life.
The Governor in his letter says that
johnson is brutal, vicious and
criminally bad," and could easily be
spared by the state, and it Is evil
dent that the only influence that
controlled him in the murderer's
favor was the plea Of Mrs. Frisbie,
wife of his victim.
The great danger in a move of
this sort is that it does not stop the
work of the sentimentalists aided by
the sensational dalies, and already
they have commenced to try to
throw doubts on his having com
mltted any crime at all, even going
so far as to advocate a parole for
him. johnson would not be free
two weeks until he would commit a
burglary of some sort, as he has no
notion of living by work, and if any
one stood in his way he would kill
that person.
When such characters are brought
to trial with sufficient evidence to
covict as in this case, the only safe
plan for society in general is to put
them out Of the way, call it judicial
murder or what you please. The
talk that the government has no
right to take life is the worst sort
Of sentimental rot II they have no

Public Schools.

The Lamar Public Schools will
open on Tuesday, September Bird
with q larger equipment than ever
before. Eighteen teachers have
been employed and four additional
rooms have been prepared to &C.
commodste the increasing atten-
dance. Four grade teachers will
OCCUPY the rooms at the Central
School. At the Lincoln School
there will be seven teachers and all
the grades. Three grade teachers
will have rooms at the High School
building.
With the increased facilities the
Lamar Schools offer better oppor-
tunities than ever before. The
board of education has been sue
cessful in securing the services of
teachers that have already proven
their efficiency IN the school room,
so that their success in almost every
instance is already assured.
At the Central School the teach
srs will be as follows: Mrs. Kath-
crime Smith, Misses Myrtb Marx,
Hattie Bailey and Jessie Sammons.
The Lincoln School will have as
teachers Mrs. Carrie Robinson,
Misses Mabel Joy, Lucinda Paxton,
Rosa Thomsn, Edna Mosher, Agnes
Fortune and Sara Davis, while Miss
% Edna Corbett, Mayme Mead and
Belle Haven will teach grades at the
High School building. The teach
ers are named in the order in which
they teach from the highest grade
down.
The high school will have the
same corps of teachers as last year,
Prof. E. H. Jones being superintend-
snt Of all the schools, Miss Anna
Batmsn, principal of the High
School, and Miss Velms Woods and
Mr.. A. N. Finn, assistants.
At the Lincoln School all grades
will be taught. There will be five
grades at the Central School and
three at the High School. This ar
rangemsnt will nscessitate some
grades crossing the railroad. Every
effort has been made to avoid this
- far possible but it is found quite
Impossible when the Lincoln School
will accommodate fully twice as
many people as are now on the north
side of the tracks, and the rooms on
the south side cannot contain the
pupils that live on that side.

John L. Sullivan, dead square
man and fighter, in passing through
st. Louis the other day dropped q
wise remark touching fighting for
money without view to either prin-
ciple or glory. "In my day." be
said, "the best man won, and all the
other fellow got was a good wsllop-
ing. The way they have it now, q
man makes money by getting licked,
the way they have the purse cut up
and the receipts divided. 1t looks
to me like such things as that would
demoralizs any game" They do.
And they are demoralizing other
things than prize fighting. When q
man calculates upon becoming the
candidate of once great party for
no other than advertising purposes,
it is made very plain to us how fast
the demoralizing example Of the
prize ring is spreading. Next year
the Democratic colors will be worn
in the ring by a man who has lost in
them twice, and who knows now that
he can not win, but who is sure he
will be great financial gamer, win
or lose. But, as the dead square
fighter Of old has expressed it, such
games are demoralizing whether
they be played in prize fighting or
in politics. Globe Democrat.

was discussed and the authorities
came to the conclusion that the
city would not be justified in TAX
ing up the matter at this time.
They are not disposed to bind the
city to such project when the
quantity of water is problem
atical. While the water is near
at hand and not involving a great
expenditure. yet it would cost
considerable to lay the mains and
hydrants and at the same time
the water might prove insufiici-
ent. Such a franchise they con-
slider would be a short sighted
business proposition and prove
unsatisfactory in the end. They
prefer awaiting capital sufficient

A PROSPECTIVE WATER RIGHT SUI
Expensive Litigation In Which Many
and Owners are Involved

What promises to be one of the
most important and far reaching
law suits involving the water
rights of a large number of the
people tributary to Silvies River
and Che Foley slough has been
provoked this week by the fill
ing of the Foley slough at the
point where it takes its water
from the river.
The Pacific Live Stock Co. and
Ia large number of land owners
ON the river below this intake of
the slough are the aggressors
while VIM. Hanley and those us
ing water from the Foley slough
claim injury to their property.
It has been a bone Of contention
for many years and It has also
been the opinion of all concerned
chat the respective rights must
some day be finally determined
m the courts.
4, seems that for a number of
years the intake of the slough
has been washing out and a COR
responding larger amount Of the
water of the river has therefore
been diverted from the original
flow and the Pacific Live Stock
Co. and those interested with &c
have gone TO the head of the
slough and made a I'LL up to what
they claim was the original in-
take, They contend that had
this not been done the entire flow
0l s.lyies river would soon change
and go down the slough. Mr.
liauley and those on the slough
claim their levee is much higher
than it was formerly and that
