The annual meeting Of the Ford
County Fair and Driving Park Asso-
citation will be held next week, during

The official count will be made to-
morrow and the vote will he published

Un the state ticket Judge West was
defeated. There were four candidates
on the ticket and three to vote for.
Judge Vests name came: last on The
ballot, as they are put on alphabetically,
and this caused his defeat. Many
voters simply marked the lfrst three
names on the ticket and there were other
things which showed up the aame1way
on the ballots. Where candidates were
not we'll knowni to the voters, the first
name on thelballot had.the advantage.

ELOPEMENT FROM NEW
MEXICO ELIMINATES IN
A DUEL IN FORD co.
ONE MAN IS WOUNDED
But the Bullets Did Not Strike
Where They Will Prove
Fatal

Two men faced each other with guns
near Ford yesterday evening and shot to
kill and it was reported here last night
that one would die, a report that will
no doubt prove mistake. The affair
which eliminated In the shooting scrape
at Ford yesterday began with an elope-
ment from Clovis, New Mexico, on the
Fourth Of July. 1t is reported that
r. E. Edwards at that time left his
family and disappeared. At the same
time the wife and four year old daugh-
ter of Byron Webb Of Clovis disappeared
and Mr.. Webb believed tnat his wife
had left with Edwards. Webb was q
painter and was in the employ OF the
Santa Fe at Clovis at the time. He quit
his work and began search, one which
showed that he had determined to locate
the missing ones. Although he went
about the matter systematically, he failed
the first few weeks to get any trace Of
them. He went to different places
where Edwards had formerly lived,
making Denver on the trip. A short
time ago he got the track Of Edwards
and following the trail he arrived in
Ford yesterday. He began search in
the wheat country surrounding Ford,
and finally at one Of the farms learned
that Edwards was hauling wheat from
farm about five miles distant.
Webb drove to the place at once and
found his wife and little daughter at
Edwards's camp. Edwards had brought
9 load Of wheat TO Dodge City and had
not returned. Webb waited at camp
nearby until be saw Edwards coming and
went out to meet him. He says that
he called to Edwards that he wanted
to zee him. Webb claims now that
he did not intend to begin any
shooting unless he was compelled to and
that as there were others about he did
not think that Edwards would try to
Kill him. He says that Edwards picked
up shot gun and shot at him at close
range missing him. Webb had q gun
In his haad and the melee began.
Webb's first shot struck Edwards 10 the
shoulder. The shooting lasted only
moment. Edwards team started up and
the men became separated.
Webb seems to be quiet deliberate
sort Of young man and he claims that
he had no intention Of killing Edwards

STUBS AND BRIS l0W WERE
THE WINNERS IN TUES
DAYS PRIMARIES
OFFICIAL COUNT TOMORROW
Now Time for Republicans to
CheerfuIIy Prepare for
November Election

The primary election In Kansas Tues
day appears to have resulted 10 the nomi-
nation Of w. r. Stubbs for Governor and
Joseph l.. Brstow for U. 8. Senator.
While the latter Office is not directly
elective, 1t tis the purpose Of the law that
/the representatives and state senators
vote on U. s. senator as the people Of
their districts voted In the primaries and
this will no doubt be done so that
If the Kansas legislature is Republican
Mr.. Bristow's election is practically a
certainty.
While the Globe Republican regrets to
see Senator Long retired, just at time
when he would be OF great value to bis
state, 1t is willing to accept Mr.. Bristow
as the choice Of the Republicans OF Kan
sas, and while, too the paper has had no
part In selecting Mr.. Stubbs as the candi-
date for governor, this paper expects to
support both of these candidates and
wishes now to Insist that 1t is time, as
soon as the official vote Of the primary
ballots is made, to make the choice
of the majority unanimous, and get
down to business together 10 see that
the candidates are elected at the polls in
November,
There were only three contests In the
county, and it is to be hoped that the
winning ones will receive the support
Of those less fortunate.
In the contest on senator the Globe
Republican has stood with Ford county.
at least. Senator Long received good
majority In this county.
