ANY attempt TO create prejudice
between people who live in the coun-
~ and those who live in the towns
in the county works an injury to
all concerned. Whenever you find
a county where there Is a county
seat fight business Of all kinds is
affected adversely. Mexico has al
ways had a county court that looked
after the reads and bridges in one
end OF the county just the same as
though they were in the center. As
q msster Of fact, the roads close to
Mexsoo are the worst there are in
the county. OF necessity the eoun-
~ buildings have to be at the eoun-
ty seat. but our taxpayers in the cou
", 70 matter where they live, take
pride m having a finsrlass court
house, a good jail and an up4odate
infirmary. II is a great mistake to
encourage bad feeling q the people
Ia one part q the county against
those who i've In another part, es-
pexaally when there Is M ground
for amnesty. As an ordinary propo-
skion. troubles Of this kind are en-
gendered BY people who want office
and enaeaYor 20 create prejudice so
they may secure sn lotion. Moth
ing is of more importance than that
the people d a town. county or
state should dwell together in har.

Little time was wasted in reading
the verdict. The crowd heard it, and
then. at the marshals orders, arose
and silently trooped out of the room
without confusion.
The wife of DR.. Hyde is niece
of the late Colonel Swope. All during
the trial Mrs. Swope, sister-in-law of
the murdered man. and Mrs. Hyde
failed to exchange a glance of recog-
milton, the charge of murder having
completely estranged the women.
Chemists of national renown were
in evidence during the trial.
Cousin Also Dead.
aSDr. Hyde attended not only Colonel
.,wope during his final illness but al
y SC ..taEies Moss Hunton, cousin of
the colonel. Huntop died at the
Swope home in Independence, Mo-.
on October /, presumably from apo
piexy. Only two days later Colonel
Swope expired, supposedly from the
same cause. On December l Miss
Margaret Swope, niece, was strick-
en- with typhoid and one day later
Chrisman Swope, nephew of Colo
mel Swope was taken with the same
illness. Two days later Miss Cora
Dickson, another cousin, and a ne
gress servant in the Swope home
were attacked with typhoid.
Apparently the chain of illness was
limitless; for, on the next day, s. S.
Fleming, 6 nephew Of Colonel Swope,
who was visiting the latter, was
stricken, followed the next day by
Colonel Swope's death.
Other Relatives Die
Between December and IS three
more relatives of the colonel took to
heir beds with typhoid. They were
Miss Sara Swope, IA years of age
l niece, Miss Stella. Swope, another
niece, and Miss Lucy Lee.
Rumors of foul play gained cur

BERN|CE OSBORN, SAVED

Mrs. Bernice Osborn, the young
woman who suicided last week in
the rooming house above the Strouse
noon from the Slough aoietaoinu
rooming house, was buried yesterday
afternoon from the Slough under
taking parlors, the funeral being in
charge of Lieutenant Westcott, of
the Salvation army and his noble
band of workers.
No relative or dear friend was pre-
sent to mourn the death of this young
woman. No member of any church.
save the rector of st. Matthews p.
Z. church. offered to say prayer or
give any kindly ministration to the
remains of the young woman and it
devolved upon the Salvation army
CORPS to offer their services to place
away the remains of this young and
erring woman, unloved and un-
mourned.
That she took her life to save her
self from descending to life OF
shame is hardly questionable. With
out work, deserted by husband and
relatives, she took the easiest course
to satisfy her mind.
