Two preliminary meetings
have been held in Adams & Bur
rows Office this week for the
purpose of effecting an organiza-
tion for the protection and gen
eral benefit of the community
tributary to the towns in Sedg-
wick county Great interest has
been shown among all classes,
and there has been much discus
sion of the various matters
that might come before such an
organization. Temporary officers
were elected and a committee
appointed to draft constitution
and bylaws. This committee
will report at the general
meeting next Thursday in the
court house
SO far as matters have been
discussed it seems to be the gen
eral desire to form an associa-
ton to protect and benefit farm
ers in the purchase Of supplies
and the selling Of their produce.
The most pressing matter now
seems to be the purchase of seed
potatoes, Of which large acre
age will be planted in Sedgwick
county and in Deuel. county,
north of US. 1t will be the pur-
pose of this association, 80 far as
discussed, to form a stock com
pany and sell shares of stock tc
the amount of about S25, 900, and
to distribute such stock among
as large a embership as posi-
BILE. 1t is urged that every
farmer and and-owner, as well
as every other person who may
be interested, in Sedgwick and
Deuel. counties, tributary to
the various towns in Sedgwick
county, shall become an active
member of the association.
There is no question that if
such an association is properly
managed and earnestly support
ed it will result in immense ben
eft to this portion of the South
Platte valley A public meeting
has been called for Thursday
afternoon, March y, at . O'Clock,
in the court house. The Secre-
tary has been instructed to send
invitations to everybody in this
section of the country, but owing
to the difficulty of obtaining
so many names and addresses in
such a short time some will be
missed. Please remember this
that you and your friends are
invited to come and bring your
friends with you to the court
house in Julesburg next Thurs
day afternoon, and let US all meet
together for the upbuiIding of
the whole community.

THE FLOOD CONTINUED.
Tuesday Nights Storm Causes Much Damage Along the Line of the
 Kansas City Southern.

Reports received last week day state that the heavy rains of Tuesday night covered large area. causing many streams to overflow their banks and doiug much damage to farm lands and railroad property.
 Along the line of the Kansas City Southern south of Texar- kana considerable damage was done to the tracks by the high water, the approaches to bridge sol, fourteen miles below Texar. kama, being washed away, caus- ing considerable delay to both passenger and freight traffic.
 North of Mena the rain was also heavy, and several bad wash outs are reported to have occurred on the branch line from Heavener to Waldron, putting the line out of commission for about eighteen hours.
 Around De Queen the floods this spring have been severe. Parties from there say there are farmers who have rebuilt their fences four times this spring and at last lost them again with so much of the soil from their farms that they have abandoned all hope oi making crop.

A DASTARDLY ACT.
Young Rascals on Passing Freight Lasso Section Hand With Wire.
 Injuring Him Badly

A telephone message to The Star from Cove tells of cowardly and dastardly act on the part of three young men last Thursday which might have resulted iu the death of section hand of the Kansas City Southern and did do grevious injury.
 While the section gang, locat- ed at Cove, was standing beside the track south of that place waiting for freight train to pass, one of three young men on the train cast a wire lasso about the body of William Hada way, one of the men, catching him about the body. The moving train ierked the man to the ground with great violence. As he was being dragged along he got his arms above his head, throwing the loop off his body, but it caught securely about cue of his arms, but fiually broke, which uadoubt- edly saved his life.
 Hadaway was taken to a phy- siciau, who found him bruised and his arm terribly cut.
 A boy who left the train at Cove stated that two of the young men who committed tho offense lived at Hatfield and the third at Mena.
