L. A. Eby in Trouble Again

L. A. Eby's old failing overpow-
cred him again on Saturday night
and Demon Rum made a mad man
of him for the time being. Mrs.
Eby took very seriously sick in the
early part of the evening and about
the same time Mr. Eby became in
toxicated. He made considerable
disturbance and used frightful Ian
guage which Mrs. Eby was in no con
d1tion to endure. Her parents Mr.
and Mrs. J. H Minick were notified
and they came to her relief They
did what they could to quiet Mr.
Eby,but seeing that he was hopeless
ly intoxicated, Mr. Minick as a last
expedient, notified Sheriff Mathews
and Mayor Skinner who came and
tookhim to Jail. When arrested Mr.
Eby made a great struggle and got
some of the Mayors clothing off of
him, but the officers dealt patiently
with him and he was soon overpow-
cred, and he was safely in his cell
by 1 o'clock Sunday morning where
he still had quarters yesterday. In
the meantime a warrant was issued
by County Attorney Field, charging
him with resisting the officers. His
bond was fixed at $500 and at
the hour of going to press he had
not given bail. He will not be tried
on this charge until district court
convenes in October. He may also
have to stand trial on the additional
charge of habitual drunkenness.
This is the second violent case of
| drunkenness of which Mr.. Eby has
been guilty recently. The first time
he was given a light fine and he
promised to quit drinking but
seems that whiskey has him down
1t is said that he is kind to his fam
lily when not Intoxicated. His case
is one which puzzles the authorities
and the hardship with which Mrs
Eby is contending excites public
| sympathy. Mr.. Eby has been a mer
/ chant in Medicine Lodge many years
but only recently has he become q
hopeless victim of drink

The candidate for commissioner of
the first district which includes the

Ed Boots of Isabel. Mr. Boots is a

For Railroad Commissioner

The only instance in which there is
appreciable rivalry for nomination
on the Democratic state ticket this
year is that under the head of
Railroad Commissioners. There
are five candidates for nomination
and only three can be nominated.
One of the strongest men among the
five is Hon. Joseph B. Fugate of
Lawrence. He is a veteran Demo-
cratic editor and man of extraor-
binary ability. He has been in close
touch with public affairs for more
than twenty years and throughout
his entire political career not a
breath of suspicion has ever attached
to him. If there is a man in Kan
sas whom the Democratic party owes
substantial recognition that man is
Joseph B. Fugate We hope every
Democrat in Barber county will vote
for him next Tuesday.

Ball Boys Lose

A message from Gearge Cameron
to the sporting editor of this paper,
says that the ball team labored hard
yesterday in the hot and under the
teeming New Mexico skies to keep
up their reputation. Along in the
ninth inning, when the score stood
three to two in favor of the Alva
team it looked for a time as though
the boys would win and thereby
make hole in their record About
this time the umpire interfered and
the ball rolled under the fence, and
saved the day for the other team,
the final score being four to three
in favor of the greasers. The boys
played errorless ball and ought to
have won, but it is said that when
one of these wild eyed Mexicans
swings his embrero and emits a yell
that can be heard in Buenos Ayers,
it takes the ginger out of our fell
lows. George says that the boys
are getting acclimated and in a few
days he hopes for someting to hap

Those who attended the open-air

but the great audience joined in
hymns Of praise to our God.

The large congregation listened

hope the friends will gather prompt
