Weeks Should Furnish Facts.

Souris Messenger: The DEM
ocratic candidate for states at
torney in circular letter sent
to the voters of the county,
makes the statement, THAT
the prohibitory law is being vi
olated and that the states at
torney does not pay as much
attention to this particular law
as he shOuld.'
We have been unable to find
a single instance where the
states attorneys Office has
failed to prosecute any alleged
violation of the liquor law,
upon receipt of a complaint
properly sworn to by a reput-
able citizen. It can be easily
seen that the states attorney
cannot unless he wants to tax
the county with a lot of worse
than useless expense, start an
action upon every vague rumor
only to find that those who
complain, cannot, or will not,
substantiate the rumors, and
the case must be dropped for
want of evidence.
If the prohibitory law is vio-
lated in Souris today it is be-
cause it's citizens are not doing
their duty rather than any ne
glect on the part of the state 8
attorney. If the democratic
candidate for states attorney
knows as he claims he does
that a law is being violated it
is his duty to forthwith furnish
the states attorney with proper
information that violators may
be punished.
During the time that States
Attorney Bowen has been in
office he has closed Is buildings
under injunctions for a year.
He has collected in fines prac-
tically enough to cover the
costs of all prosecutions and
has destroyed $4,000 or $1,000
worth of gambling apparatus.
His record has been one one of
ton, not of promise. In the
case of the murderers of F. W.
Seidel and neice he showed
that he could do things, as it
was only thirty days from the
time of the murder until the
prisoners were in the peniten
tiary at Bismarck and also in
the case of the robbery of the
Hillpot store at Westhope it
took less than two weeks to get
the guilty parties confined to
the pen, and in the latter case
he saved the county the cost of
a trial as through his tact he
gained from them a confession
of their guilt. In every in
stance there has been no delay
in getting the offenders and
giving them their just punish
ment after they were caught,
and we belive Mr.. Bowen is
entitled to the office for another
term and if the republicans OF
the county do their duty they
will see that he gets it.

made him a delightful social compan-
ion. He was at Lawrence, Kan, at
the time of Quantrell's famous raid
on that OWN in August, 1858. and was
one of the few who escaped at the
hands of the guerillas on that occa-
sion.
With a scouting party of fifteen I'm
ion soldiers, detached from the Twel-
fth Kansas Volunteers, he was camped
just across the river from Lawrence
when Quantrell attacked and burned
the town. BY the heroic defense OF the
handful of troopers several houses
were saved from destruction and gath
ering reinforcements soon made 1t so
hot for Quantrell and his band of
guerillas that they fled precipitately.
| Shortly before his death Mr.. Chris
tian denied emphatically the recently
published newspaper stories to the ef-
feet that Quantrell was still living,
for, he said, he knew for an absolute
certainty that the guerilla chief was
killed in Kentucky some years after
the Lawrence raid.
| Mr.. Christian returned to Iowa at
the close of the war and at Vernon, in
that state, was married to Mrs. Eliza
beth Glib Bell, June 10, 1872, who sur
wives him. OF this union one son, J. L..
Christian was born. He has been en-
gagged in the newspaper business at
Denver for couple of years and was
at his fathers bedside when the end
came, although at no time after his
arrival was the deceased able to give
any token of his sons presence.
Mr.. Christian and wife removed
from Iowa to Illinois in 1875 where
they remained till 1888 when they went
to Maryland for the formers health.
They resided there, principally in
Baltimore, till 1904, when they came to
Colorado, settling first in Denver, but
coming to Canon City year later.
In addition to the widow and son he
leaves four step-children, Miss Mar
garet J. Bell of this city, Mrs. Emma
