New Poll Tax Law

AS the last legislature enacted new
poll tax law, and many people have not
yet become familiar with its requirements,
the following is given for the benefit Of
those interested:
THAT section 6O33 of the general
statutes Of 100. be amended so as to
read as follows: Section 6033. All
male persons between twenty-one and
fifty years Of age who have resided thirty
days in tae state and who are not pub
lie charge shall be liable each year to
pay the sum Of three dollars to the town.
ship highway commissioner or to the dis
trict, and the same shall be expended on
repairs on the public road within the dis
trict in which such person lives. All the
money so received shall be paid over to
the township highway commissioner or
the proper officer in the city in which the
person lives. to be expended as above
provided, unless the commissioners of
roads and highways shall, when they
meet, recommend that all such male per-
sons shall perform two days work or one
days work with team upon the highways
IN lieu Of said three dollars, in which
event all such persons shall be liable each
year to perform two days work Of eight
hours each. or one days work with team
on the public roads under the direction
Of the road overseer within whose dis
trct they may respectively reside, or fur
nish substitute to do the same, or pay
the sum Of three dollars. Any city hav-
ing volunteer FIRE department may have
the privilege Of exempting the members
Of such departments from paying any
poll tax"

Played Poor Ball

The Anthony-Medicine Lodge base
ball game played In this city last We'd
nesday was not as good as had been an
tcipated. Both teams played consid-
cradle amount Of horse" and the score
ran up higher than is commonly seen in
league ball. Anthony won the game in
a score Of 5 to 9. The playing on
both sides showed that neither team was
at its best the home team being out Of
practice and the visitors realizing that the
occasion required no hard playing.
Axline and Davis pitched for the
home team and Goddard of Kiowa
caught.
There was one deplorabIe feature
about the game The crowd behind the
catcher prevented the Anthony catcher
from catching foul ball while the home
team was at the bat and he allowed his
temper to get the better Of him. He
threw the ball at the crowd as hard as
he could and came near hitting several.
The crowd became almost infuriated and
rushed toward the catcher and would
have handled him roughly had not Sher-
if Mathews intertered. He was struck
in the face once before the sheriff came
on the scene.
A ball player who will allow his pas
sion to rise on such small provocaton
ought to quit the business. In this
country where base ball grounds are
improvised the crowds will collect, thew
pay their money to see the game and il
is wrong for rlayer to purDosely injure
or attempt to injure anybody. On the
other hand it might be argued that, as a
visitor, the Anthony catcher should not
have been so roughly dealt with by the
home people. and there is some merit in
the argument, but when men feel that
they have been insulted and misused they
naturally ad quickly. 1t is hoped that
the Anthony young man has learned a
lesson. If he has, it was worth all the
humiliation it caused him.

Alfalfa In Barber County

In addition to having furnished at diff
erent times one member in the United
States senate and four, FIVE or six .nem-
bers of congress, also Carrie Nation, it
now seems to be reasonably certain that
about the first alfalfa grown in Kansas
was grown down In Bsrber county.
he writer went to Barber county in
the sprilg Of 1879. We think that it
was the next year that we were shown
some alfalfa stalks grown on the ranch
nobody in those days talked about a
farm in Barber county, Of J. P. Hall.
MIR. Hall said that it was great stuff and
would grow when almost everything else
would dry up but for some reason or
other his neighbors didn't seem to get
excited over it a BIZ.
For several seasons Halls alfalfa field
was the only one we knew Of in the
county. He had as much as 20 or Is
acres and it was a beautiful sight when
in bloom, often at times when the buffalo
grass was dry and brown. We think
the same field is still in alfalfa which
shows that the grass does not run out.
If the farmers Of Kansas had gone in
to the business Of raising alfalfa on as big
a scale as they do now at the time ]. P.
Hall commenced to raise it in Barber
county there would be $50 millions more
money in the Kansas banks than there
is at the present writing and the traveller
couldn't get out Of hearing of the toot

braska line to Oklahoma or from the
Missouri river to Colorado.-Tom Nc

An Elaborate Birthday Party

The beautiful home Of Mr.. and Mrs. ].
B. Harbaugh in Nippawalla township
was the scene Of an exceedingly happy
gathering on Sunday. The occasion Of
the event was Mrs. Harbsush's 44th
birthday and to make it the more inter.
esting and unique, it was planned and
executed without previous notice to the
guest Of honor. Mrs. Harbaush was
taken by complete surprise and it required
some little time until she recovered suf-
6ciently to enter into the full enjoyment
Of the days pleasures.
The feature Of the party was dinner.
Our versatility is far too fral to picture
this feast In words but it will suffice to
say that it included all the delicacies tha,
farm and garden can produce and that
money could buy. and it was thoroughly
enjoyed by the large number Of invited
guests. Covers were laid for ITO,
which came very near including the en-
tire neighborhood and several from a
distance. Mrs. G. A. Harbaush oI
Alva; Fred Gronemiar. brother Of Mrs.
Harbaugh, from Capron. Ok, and u
S. Lands and family Of Kiowa, were the
guests from distance.
The ladies Of the neishborhood pre-.
pared the dinner In advance and brought
it to Mrs. Harbaugh's home to serve it
and the variety can well be surmised.
Misses Mary Page and Belle Groen.

Shall We Celebrate?

There is a strong sentiment among
the people Of the city for a Fourth Of
July celebration this year. There has
been no celebration in the county seat
town for many years and the time seems
to be ripe to have one.
If, however, it is determined to ceIe-
brate it is tme to begin, and those who
are most interested should start the ball
to rolling.
So far there has been no agitation for
celebration In any Of the towns IN close
proximity and if our business men starr
early. the town would probably have a
clear field.
