NEW WITNESSES

hard search in the Taborton Mountain.
Detectives Powers and Unser. OF the
district attorneys office, returned with
the announcement that they had come
acI oss what IS likely to be a most prom
Using clew in the Hazel Drew murder
mystery.
The detectives went out 10 see If
they could ind any trace OF Hazel

road toward the farmhouse Of Mrs.
Libbie SOwalSky on the night o. the
murder. They first talked with Willie
Drew. HaZelS brother, who said III had
expected Hazel to see him at Mrs. So

The two detectives are said 20 have
found two witnesses who will say they

There IS apparently little sentiment
in John d. Rockefeller's make up; in
deed, sentiment and the faculty for
money-making seldom travel thru life
richest man in the world" evidently
has no sympathy with the mania for
collecting old things, as he refused re-
Gently to take advantage of the offer
of a sword said TO have been carried
by one of Oliver Cromwell's soldiers,
and claimed to be nearly 800 years old.
The sword was dug up $50 years ago
near some church in England, and is
owned by Miss Annie Barry, who
wants $500 for it. Mr.. Rockefeller
politely declined to buy the sword, for,
says this man whose income is larger
than any crowned head of Europe, or
any other head for that matter, 'T
am a man of peace, and have no use
for a sword"
One of the most significant move
ments of the century is the awakening
of women all over the world, and es-
pecially of those countries in the Far
East where woman has always been
considered incapable of thinking for
herself, to a sense of their wrongs and
to the necessity of taking some bold
stand with regard to demanding their
rights. The Mahometan women of
Russia, who have not been allowed by
their husbands to even study their own
them in state of slavish subjection,
have petitioned the Douma for a share
in the privileges granted by the EN-
peror TO the people. These women say
they have not even the freedom the
Mahometan women of Arabia enjoy.
and that the tenets of their faith allow
them to engage in business, to travel,
become nurses, engage in literature,
etc, but that the Mahometan men in
Russia have not permitted anything of
this kind. Unless our status is
changed" they say, "the men of our
faith win some day become slaves. and
the whole Mahometan world perish
Miss Helen Maloney's marriage for
fun" is giving her great deal of trou-
Bile. She wishes to marry Mr.. Clark
son, who it will be remembered is the
man she ran away with some months
ago, and has been endeayoring to Sc
cure divorce TO that end. Now, the
Rev. John A. Walters. pastor of the
Church of Our Lady of Mercy at Port
Chester has protested against the an
nulment of her marriage to Mr.. Os-
borne, as he believes that marriage was
made in good faith and should b.. held
sacred. The Maloneys are such promi-
nent and devoted Roman Catholics that
1t is difficult to think they would go
against their church in this matter
Miss Maloney's unfortunate experience
may possibly be warning to other
thoughtless girls who. carried away by
the excitement of the occasion, might
be tempted to treat with the same
levity and disrespect the sacred ordin-
ance of marriage.

Wis, in 1s41. and came to Kansas in
breaking out, he enlisted in August,
1851, in the 4th Kan, which was soon
consolidated with the Sd, and the unit
ed regiment was called the 10th. He
was soon promoted to First Lieutenant
OF his company, which he commanded
at the battle of Prairie Grove. In 1853
he was detailed as Aid-de-Camp to
Gen. Thomas Ewing, and was with one
of the detachments that went in pur-
suit of Quantrell, after the sacking of
Lawrence. He remained on Gen. Ew-
ing's staff until January, 1865, when
he resigned, to take his seat in the
Legislature, to which he had been
elected the previous November.
Comrade Leland's war record is of
the best. He was just past boyhood
when he entered the service. and his
form was exactly what might be ex-
pected of a man who never says die"
He displayed commendable zeal and
courage in the fight at Prairie Grove,
one of the notably decisive and hard
fought battles of the West, and one of
the few battles that was fought to a
conclusive finish with every ounce of
fight knocked out of the rebels. In
this fight he commanded his company
and led 1t. The war records show that
he was conspicuousiy courageous there.
Then in the Quantrell raid he was again
signally trusted by his commanding
officers, and made good.
In civil life Comrade Leland seems
to have made n success of everything
he has undertaken, also. He is counted
a rich man, even in Kansas. But II
cannot be said that his riches have
ever come by way of making other
men poorer. As a thorough going bus
mess man, tenacious of purpose and
exact in dealings. he has been eminent
ly successful, one excellent recommend

alton for man who would be Gov-
ernor of a great State like Kansas.
He has been many times a member OF
the State Legislature.
From 1878 to 1880 he was Chairman
of the Republican State Committee,
and again from 1894 to 1896. Mr. Le-
land was made Delegate to the Re-
publican National Conventions of 1875,
1884, 1899 and 1896; a member of the
National Committee in 1884, 1888, 1892
and 1896.
While skilful politician, a success
ful business man, and an able financier,
Comrade Leland seems to have got
pretty close to the hearts of the veter-
ans, and has always been considered
their especial champion IN the halls of
legislation. He has always been active
in the passing of laws that would pro-
tect the veteran and his widow and
children, and from his riches he has
been quietly but munificently generous
to those of his comrades in distress
II closed it must be. it would seem
that Kansas could not do better than
to round up her roll of soldier Cow
ernors by electing Comrade Leland.
The National tribune., 1908-05-07

States, in fact, would ever again have
a veteran of the Union armies for
Governor, for the reason that age Is
telling upon the comrades, and they no
longer love the political arena, and dis
like the cares and burdens of execu-
tive office. Kansas has again brought
a veteran to the front however, and
one who has made good in everything
he has ever undertaken to do. In this
resDect it seems as though his record
is without a flaw.
Comrade Cyrus Leland, almost ma
tive of Kansas, and one of her brave
young soldiers of the Union, and since
that time one OF the greatest defenders
of the Union veteran, has concluded to
make the canvass for Governor of the
Sunfiower State. It looks to be on the
cards that the veterans of Kansas will
see to 1t that Comrade Leland's laud-
able desire to be Governor shall be
gratified.
Mr. Leland WAS born In Sauk County.

For Senior vice-Commander.

Irwin Mcdowell Post, Enid, Okla,
has strongly indorsed B. N. Turk for
Senior Vice Department Commander,
to be elected at the Department En-
campment, to be held at Guthrie, May
1922. Comrade Turk was only Is
years old when the war broke ont, anu
in 1863 lodged the conscripting officers,
and refugeed across the Cumberland
Mountains to reach Camp Nelson,
where he enlisted in the 9th Tenn. Cav.
He was bugler on the expedition which
surprised and killed Gen. John II. Nor
gan. and refused promotion twice be-
cause he would not leave his company.
