farmers hereabouts, who naturally ex.
pend the greater portion of IL with
the merchants here, so the benefits
are evident.

said he was entitled to it. Miller,
the millionaire horse man, of New
ton, who follows horse showing as
a business, got first. There were
six teams in the show, Medicine
Lodge being the only small town
represented.
While we would like to have

having the second driving team in
the state is distinction that rare

Arrested for Perjury

DR.. D. F. Williams of Chillicothe,
Mo-, who was one of the star wit
,nesses for the great state Of Kan
saS in the case of State VS.. Circle
which was tried in district court
here last week, was arrested for
perjury on Thursday night. DR..
Williams was on his way home
when the warrant was issued by
County Attorney Field and he was
intercepted by a phone message to
the sheriff at Wellington. who ar
rested him at the Santa Fe depot.
Sheriff Mathews went to Yelling
ton and brought the Doctor back
on Friday. He gave bond in the
sum Of $500 for his appearance for
preliminary hearing November
1st, and departed on Saturday.
DR.. Williams is charged with
having testified falsely concerning
Mr.. Circles presence in Missouri at
a time when it is claimed there is
positive proof that Mr.. Circle was
in Kiowa. This is material
point in the case and one of the
Jurors who sat in the trial informs
US that it was DR.. Williams's testi-
mony which prevented the jury's
agreeing on verdict.
DR.. Williams testified on the
witness stand that he was to receive
SIS day and expenses for COM
ing here to testify. Now he is in
trouble. He surely must be val
liable man and he doubtless tried
to give the strongest evidence he
had at his command.
The Index does not desire to
deal unjustly with DR.. Williams.
He is entitled TO a faif trial and, if
innocent, he should be released.
But it is opportune to recall at this
time remark made by City At
torney Tincher at a recent meeting
of the Methodist Brotherhood, in
which he said there ought to be
some prosecutions for perjury in
this county. He stated that there
wasn't a term of court but that
perjury was committed and the
way to stop it is to make an ex-
ample of somebody.
We suppose that the city attor-
ney will make a careful investiga-
tion of this matter and if he finds
that there are reasonable grounds
for believing DR.. Williams guilty,
he will give the county attorney his
moral support. at least, for acting
on the suggestion.
