MAY DAY CONTEST.
Annual Scrap Between Glasses Of the
High School. IA

1t is a cold day when May Day
passes without the annual scrap"
between the classes Of the high
school. All day yesterday confer
ences were hello by the different
cliques making arrangements to "get
one on" the other fellow. AS usual
the Seniors and Sophomores were
lined against the Juniors and Fresh
men. In the early evening the boys
gathered in gangs pursuing and cap
turing members Of the opposite side.
Hair was freely cut or filled with glue
and in some cases the individual was
tied up. At S;4s the Juniors ana
Freshmen acknowledged defeat. The
girls furnished refreshments at DIFF
ferent homes to the boys.
While the scrap was intense while
It lasted it was all good natured and
today the dove Of peace has settled
over the classes to abide for another
year.

LION AT PARKER SHOW

Oklahoma City Press: Romeo

Parker shows escaped from his cage
Thursday morning at nine o'clock
bounced upon one Of the trained
horses in the tents and tore It limb

Five OF the attendants sprang
at the furiated lion with iron
prongs and bars and beat him in
to inconsistencies. The power
full beast now lies PROSTATE in his
cage and 1t is believed that he will
die. His head is badly bruised from
the blows Of the iron bars and his
body is bleeding from the stabs Of the
sharp prongs.
Keeper Hiltbruner was one OF the
first to beat the lion with an iron
bar as he howled and CRASHED his
teeth with his prey between his paws.
Hiltbrunner said:

Early Risers Get View Of Halley'i
Astral Air Ship.

Halley's comet can now be- plainly
seen in Abilene with the naked eye.
To view the visitor, one must get
up about 1890 in the morning. The
comet is visible in the east, little
north of the planet Venus.
Tom Jones who was probably the
first in Abilene to see the comet
said today:
The comet is now as plainly Wis
ible as the comet which was here in
February. 1t can plainly be seen
with the naked eye, but Of course is
much palmer with a field glass" ,

mater Of common talk among IN
dependent oil producers that you
have received from the Standard on
Company, from two TO five cents
I more per barrel for your oil than
'lany other producer in the oil field
has received,
i Z. ID It not a fact that when Sam
4 fitzpatrick was appointed attorney
for the Standard OIL Company, the
matter Of his appointment was re-
ferred TO you by the officials Of stan
dard on? What were your rela-
Etions with the Standard oil Com
pany that caused them to refer q
4 matter Of this kind to you?
We dislike to stoop to personalities
in a political campaign. We are con-
tent to make this fight on the issue
OF Governor Stubbs' treachery to the
party that elevated him to the high
office he now occupies, and his Ia
mentable failure to give the people
business administration. We DO
not intend to permit the governor to
eyade these issues. But the Inn
peachment Of the political integrity
d the thousands Of good men who
are today supporting Tom Wagstaff
for governor, justifies us in exposing
his hypocrisy.
Now, what are the facts with ref
erence to these issues which we say
are the real issues Of this campaign,
which Governor Stubs Is frantically
attempting to evade, and which he
says in his answer "are SO general
that they have no specific or practical
meaning?"
i. We say that the tax payers
Of Kansas are required to pay q
million dollars more to maintain the
state government this year than they |
paid last year. Is this statement |
Main? Can Governor Stubbs under
stand what we mean? II SO, let him
explain why state taxes have been
raised a million dollars when he
that If he were elected gov
ernor. the expenses Of the state gov
eminent should be reduced. He
went all over the state two years
ago and told the people that the
men who had been in charge Of state
affairs had squandered the peoples
money and ii he were elected COVER
nor he would give us a business adj
What kind Of busi-
ness administration is it that raises
The state taxes million dollars?
q We say that the tax payers of
douglas county, the home Of Gov
srpor stubbs, are required to pay
INTO the state treasury $12,152,2s
more of state taxes this year than
tbev paid last year. Can the Gov
amor understand that?

wACsTAFE MAKES REPLY
10 GOV. sTUBBs' ATTACK.

Topeka, April Boa. G. Stitch
manager Of Tom wagstafrs campaign
today issued this reply to Gov. stubbs
attack on wagstaff and bis support
ers:
TO the Republicans Of Kansas; Th'
effort. Of Governor Stubbs, In his re-
ply to the Wagstaff meeting, to evadt
the issues by the cry Of RAILROAD
Attorneys" standard OIL" Hire
Iings," "Postmasters,' etc, is a pitt
full confession of weakness on his
part. When we say that he deliber-
tely deceived the people by declar-
ing over his own signature that he
hsa spent half-million dollars less
Of the peoples money during his
first year in office, than was spent
during the last year,under Governor
Hoch, when as matter Of fact he
spent $4,000 more, he answers US
BY shouting Railroad Attorneys"
How simplel
when we ask him why the tax
payers Of Kansas are required to
nay into the state treasury to meet
state expenses a million dollars more
this year than they paid last year,
his reply Il STANDARD OIL" How
easy that is!
When we inquire, why, as Re-
publican governor of Kansas, a state
made prosperous by Republican poll
cies, he has studiously endeavored to
sliscredit the administration OF Pres
ident Taft, Assailed the reputation Of
all the Republican congressman who
have had anything to do with all the
Legislation Of recent years, and has
all but disrupted the party in his
own state, his answer is "Postmas-
tiers, Hireiings." Nothing hard about
that!
Governor Stubs cannot conceive
how any man can honestly differ
from him, therefore the supporters
Of Tom Wagstaff must Of necessity
be influenced by improper motives.
Since the governor makes SO much
out Of this point, it might be out OF
place to inquire into the governors
relations with corporations.
i. Governor, was not every dol
lar Of the immense fortune that you
have accumulated originally made out
Of contracts with railroads and the
Standard oil Company?
Q. Do you believe that a man IN
Just a few years can honestly make a
million dollars out of contracts with
8. Where did this fortune that
you have made from profits on rail-
road contracts come from unless
from the pockets Of the people. Have
they been compelled to pay exhcrbi-
tant freight and passenger rates in
order that such profitable contracts
can be awarded?
4. Did you ever in all your life
raise your voice against the wrong
doing Of railroads until after you
had ceased to do contract work for
Them?
s. The newspapers have been re-
generous, however, in the
Of space accorded to you in
The last few years. Can you point

sither your private or official life,

q nlan for the completion OF the
proiect. which will be open to public
inspection within the coming week.
This plan provides, in very COM
prehensiye way, for handling the
future flood waters, a first-elass
and practical intake for the irrigating
ditch. and a new fishway, so that the
old fishway can be closed up, thus
strengthening the wooden structure
which will then be in condition to
stand for several years.
All OF the new work has been done
along lines looking toward carrying
out the irrigation company's wishes
of having the entire wooden strue-
tire renewed with concrete. Such
structure will not only be prac-
tical, economical, a credit to the
community, but 1t will be material
factor In increasing the value OF
every acre OF land in this valley, and
greatly facilitate obtaining the In
vestment of capital, that being all
that is required to make this section
one Of the most productive and prof
table in the entire Rogue River val
ley.
