minis. If he is called into the fgh,
and wins, La Toilette will have es-
tablished himself as power in the
Senate that will have to be reckoned
with. AS he stood in the last ses-
sion he was a disturbing element,
stirring up strife.
La Follette's movements are being
watched with intense int crest by the
conservatives in Congress. His in
huence in the Middle West also is
disturbing the Republican leaders,
who are afraid he will overreach
himself in his enthu ;iasm. The
Middle West is radical and demands
radicalism.
With Bristow and Cummins in the
Senate, both owing allegiance to and
sharing his views, La Toilette will be
in position to demand certa n
things that in the past he has begged
for or tried to force through by
sheer strength. He will be the raj
lying point for the radicals, mum
Der of whom are to be found in the
ranks of the younger Republican
Senator'S.
Altogether the lists are being made
ready for the tilt against the cham
pions of conservatism and Senate
precedent. La Toilette and his new
recruits are looked upon as more
than likely to overthrow eventually
the s'inncr ring" that for quarter
of century has ruled legislation.

Prominent Citizens Held
for Cattle Stealing.
A Couple of Cow PnnChers are
Implicated
Liberal Independent.

Tuesday morning the town was
amazed when Jas. d. Mahoney and
Homer F. Myers, butchers, and
Bob and Walter McComas, COW
punchers, were all arrested and
locked up on the charge of stealing
cattle.
Tuesday afternoon they appeared
before Justice Mcclure and their
bonds fixed at $1,000 each, pending
the preliminary examination which
will occur Saturday. Mahoney and
Myers gave bond for their appear
auce, and the McComas boys went
back to Jail.
The complaints were sworn out by
Charley Light, the owner of the two
cows in the possession of these men
at the time of the arrest.
1t seems that number of the cat
tlemen have been losing cattle re-
Gently and have been watching the
proceedings in a quiet way for some
time. Monday they concluded that
their cattle were being butchered and
sold out here at Liberal.
Monday night a couple of officers
laid in wait at the Mahoney & Myers
slaughter pens and as the night ad
vanced the McComas brothers drove
two beeves in and yarded them.
The watchers identified them, and
allowed them to go away unmolest-
ed. Shortly afterwards Il couple of
officers followed them home and
made the arrests while they were
still unsaddling their mounts and
preparing for bed.
The watch at the slaughter pen
was continued and about four O'Clock
Tuesday morning Mahoney and My
ers arrived and at once went to work.
They killed one of the COWS and
were skinning the head when the Of
fcers went in on them and proceed
ed to make the arrests.
Mr.. Light was at once notified.
He came in and identified the stock
as his and proceeded to make out
formal complaint, charging the four
men with the theft. These warrants
were served by the sheriff.
Later on in the day search war
rant was issued and the hide vat at
the slaughter pens was opened, dis
closing but five hides, shipment
having been made short time ago.
Of these five hides, two of them
showed the Light brand, one the L.
F. Hopkins brand, and one the Z.
C. Pile brand. The other was un-
branded.
Since this affair has been opened
up to the public number of stock
men have come forward with the
statement that they have missed
cattle for the past year and could
find no trace of them.
John Schmidt, farmerand stock
man who lives six miles north of
town, says he has lost a score or
more of cattle in the last twelve
months. Others tell of losing from
one to five.
The McComas boys live near the
Chas.- Light ranch and keep their
horses in the Light pasture. They |
have been seen frequently riding
about the pasture, but as they had |
their horses there nothing was
thought of it. Mrs. Light reports
that on Monday they were in the
pasture riding around among the
stock. They at this time were pro-
badly sizing up the bunch and de
gliding on which cattle to drive off /
that night.
The preliminary triaLWill be held
before Justice VI. P. Mcclure on
Saturday, at which time there doubt
less will be further developments ins
she case

Sundays Ball Game

Last Sunday afternoon about 200
O'Clock, the citizens of Meade were
aroused from the quietude of the af-
ternoon by the arrival of the special
train from Liberal which carried the
Liberal base ball team and band and
about one hundred base ball enthus-
lasts of that gay city.
Lead by the band, they immedi-
ately proceeded to the ball park, in
manner which reminded one more
of "circus day" than Sunday
ball game.
The game was called about 800,
and proved to be very interesting
game. The first inning resulted in
shut out, but in the second Liberal
scored twice on errors by the home
team. The third inning resulted in
another shut out, but the fun began
again in the fourth when both teams
marked up two scores to their credit.
The score remained to a until the
eighth when both teams again scored
once each. The ninth was another
shut out, which caused the following
result:
