Editor Pnrkmnn,s Husband.

The Empoyia Times Is edited by
Mrs Mary McCreary Parkman, a life
long and loyal Democrat, who has
served two terms as county superin-
tendent OF Lyon county, elected by
ner party. Her husband is a Re-
publican, is county surveyor and a
candidate for reelection. 1t is one
OF the rules of the Times office that
Mr. Parkman's name shall never ap-
pear In its columns. Mrs, Parkman
Iustiiles the rule in the following
clever editorial:
I'VE have been asked frequently
why we keep our husband on the
blacklist In the Emporia Times, Now,
ordinarily, what we do with our hus-
band is our own business. And 1t
would seem in all fairness that II We
put up with this man morning, noon
and night, we shouldn't have to be
putting him In the paper all the time.
We and our husband, like all married
people, have our agreements and dis
agreements. We agree on literature,
art, the nebular hypothesis, the prop
or method Of pokng the fire, the val
ne of breakfast food as a brain build
er, paving, municipal ownership and
the facts in the Guinness case. But
VIC disagree on politics. We think
our husband has good deal OF sense
for a mere man--on lots Of sub
jects; but on politics, he doesn't
know much lie Ia Republican
and as such has no claims on us eth
er as a molder OF public opinion, a
fellow citizen or as wife.
I'VE will cook for our husband /:
We will mend our husbands clothing;
We will darn and brush him up-as
our husband. But as an office hold
err of vile, venal and corrupt or
ganization, an emissary OF Wall
street and as an oppressor OF the
poor our husband has only our I'M
speakabIe contempt. He should
thank his stars that we do keep his
name out OF the Times. We know
enough of our husband, should he
attempt to press this matter too far,
to make his vote in this election lit
tie more than scratching But up
to the present we have said nothing.
We have believed that our duty as a
wife had soma clai4ns on our duty as
an editor. But word to the wise
should be sufficient and II our hus-
band has learned lick OF sense from
past experiences with us, he will
take a grand immortal tumble to
himself and call off his dogs. This
newspaper is free and untamed or
gan of special privileges to noone and
equal rights to all, and II our hus-
band thinks he belongs to the priv
lleged classes, he is mighty badly
fooled
1--WE think good bit Of our hus-
band, first and last, and in one way
and another. but we will permit no
foolishness from this Republican
county surveyor. He is a bad lot
and we withhold certain matters in
this affair, on account of the re-
spectablity Of the parties concerned"

Trooper Shot SHADY Biz
WaTTen'S Arm OH In En-.
counter Last Night
(From Fridays Dally)

Elgin Warren, also known as
SHADY Bill" lying in the ward at
81, Anthony's hospital wiz his left
arm shattered to the shoulder and
with his chances for life so slight
that his surgeons today would not
promise recovery, Jack Freeze, in the
county jail on charge OF the shoot
ing and City officer Robinson, are
the principals in a sensational shoot
ing last night.

Went for His Gun

Went for His Gun
Freeze with some young compan-
IONS had been going the rounds last
night. He had been drinking con-
siderably and had become 80 bolster
Gus that officer Robinson called him
down and told him to go home. 1t
seems that he has had words before
with the officer and last night he
holly resented the interference and
defied the officer to arrest him.
After this encounter he tried 10 get
his key 10 the armory of Troop B,
OF which he Is quartermaster SER
geant, to get his army rifle. The
boys at the Golding drug store whore
he has been employed, kept him from
getting his key. lie then went to the
home OF one of the other boys of the
troop and on explaining that no
wanted to get his equipment out of
the armory so that he could prac-
tice on their target range tomorrow,
ne got a key, went to the basement of
courthouse and tooko out one of the
new Springfield rifles. He then
started, he explains now, for his
room but 1t is also said that he was
looking for the officer,
Hannonad ITnon zNaerou
Near the corner of the First Ma
tional Bank on Polk street he met
Warren with whom ne had some
trouble several months ago. or what
occurred there are several accounts
but at any rate Freeze fired upon
the man while he was few steps
away.
Warren, 1t appears, had put up
his left arm as a guard to his face
so that his elbow was toward Freeze.
The steel bullet from the army gun
struck him almost at the point OF the
elbow and literally ripped the bone
out of his arm. The cartridge which
had been used in the gun is the
most powerful used in military rifles
and the bone only increased its eff
fectiveness. The ball came out on
the lower side OF the arm near the
shoulder, SO great was the force
OF the shock that one Of the bits of
shattered bone from the mans arm
flew out through his flesh and made
wound almost like a bullet wound
on his neck and throat.
Warren ran into an entry way to
escape the other man and Freeze
went to Engmans restaurant where
he was followed few minutes later
by Officer Robinson. Freeze COW
cred the officer at once, forced him
to put his hands up and get out OF
the place. Freeze continued his talk,
defying any officer in Amarillo to
arrest him, and little while later
went over to the county jail and gave
himself up.
Warren Had Pounded Freeze.
Warren, the victim OF the shoot.
ing is young fellow whose parents
are respected citizens now living
near Clovis, n NJ. He himself has
far from creditable record and
only few days ago completed a
sentence as city convict. While city
convict he refused to work and was,
by orders of the mayor, set to fol-
lowing the garbage wagon with a
bail and chain to his feet. Several
months ago as result Of celebration
like the, one last night, Freeze and
some other young fellows became in
volved with Warren and some others
at a disorderly resort Warren
knocked Freeze down with brass
knucks and pounded him so that he
was confined to his bed for several
