Jessie Morrison Paroled.

Miss Jessie Morrison, the most
noted female prisoner in the Kan
SaS penitentiary, was this week
parOled by Governor Stubs, af.
ter eight years service for the mu
der of Mrs. 0lin Castle, in Butler
county. This case was one of the
noted cases in the state, and at
tracted wide attention. The young
woman was tried three times, the
first trial being a draw, the jury
failing to agree, on the second
trial she was found guilty of man.
slaughter, and sentenced to five
years, and on the third trial was
found guilty of murder, receiv-
ing a sentence of twenty-five
years. One of the regrettable
things connected with the case
was the fact a certain young man,
who was the principal cause of
the murder, never got his. We
firmly believe that Miss Morrison
was entitled to a parole. and that
the action of the governor will
meet with the hearty approval of
the people of Kansas.

Where Did They Get Them?

The EmpOria Gazette says that
many Democrats will fail to vote
for Hodges this year because he
has nothing to offer them but
warmed over issues. Let us see
about that. As young as we are,
we can remember when the port
ly editor of the Gazette, Mr.. vii
liam Allen White, hOOted at many
of the things now pushed to the
front by himself and Governor
Stubs. At that time the Repub-
llcan party in Kansas was MAX
ing their campaigns on the "safe
and sane" platforms, which not
only failed to mention the plankS
they are using now, but in many
instances condemned them. The
Democrats, through such men as
Hodges, have kept alive these is
sues until the people have been ed
ucated to them and now the Oppo-
sitiOn has adopted them. If there
are any old warmed over issues
used, it seems to us the Stubs
crowd is doing it.

A Busy Place.

While in the South End this
week we had the pleasure of be.
ing shown through the plant OF
the Riverside Steam Laundry. The
owner, Mr.. McMullen, has spared
no effort or expense to make this
the best equipped and most up-tO-
date institution of its kind in
western Kansas, and as good as
any in the state. The building is
of cement block construction, be.
ing 3Sx76 feet, with high ceilings,
and is exceptionally well lighted
and ventilated.
The plant has long been known
as one Of the best equipped in the
state, but the manager is partie-
ularly proud Of a line of new ma
chinery just installed. This in.
cludes a bosom press, a neck and
yoke press, a cuff press, and a 30
inch collar and cuff machine.
These machines are just what
the name indicates. They are
heated by steam exclusively, and
do the work of ironing and fin
iShing shirts, collars and cuffs
without any rubbing or friction
Of any kind, thus eliminating all :
possibility of scOrching the gar
mentS, tearing or injuring them
IN any way in the process of iron.
ing. They give the popular Do
nestle Finish. These machines
are manufactured and sold exclu.
slvely by the largest dealers in
the world in this line of machin-
cry, and are the best they make,
few other plants in the state have
this equipment, there being nOne
other nearer than Wichita to
this point.
This business gives employment
to five men and from eight to
twelve girls, making a monthly
pay roll Of more than 500. They
keep two wagons busr every day
in the week, except Sunday, col.
lectlng and delivering. -"
The wash room and all the de-
partments Of the business are in
charge of experienced and cap
able men. We consider Great
Bend very fortunate in having
this plant, which is beyond doubt
as good as the best.

The Democratic Ticket from Top Bottom Worthy Your Support
Why His Solicituds?

The editor of the Tribune, who
Is the Republican nominee fOr
the office Of county printer, Is
very much wrought up over the
way the Democrats may vote IN
this county. In a recent issue OF
the daily he stated as follows:
<FThe Democratic county candl-
dates, or to be exact a few OF
them, are cOntending that Stubbs
viii not get as many Democratic
votes in Barton county as Hodges
will get Republican votes. These
candidates are attempting to get
the Democrats to vote 'er
straight In times past this was
a profitable way Of campaigning
for the average candidate. He
stood in line with his party and
expected his party to pull him
through. Il
Now, if expressing an opinion
an the probable political outcome
Of the campaign is wrong, of
course the candidates referred to
have done wrong. But it is not.
Furthermore, the candidate on
any Eicket who did not speak for
his party ticket from top to bot
tom, Nnless such ticket had on it
"a man who should not be given
an office because he was not fit
for it, would not be worthy the
support of his party in the elec-
tGn. Parties are necessary, and
ne who is given a preference by
his party is derelict in his duty if
he does not support its nominees.
True, voters are voting very indie
pendently, which is absolutely cor
rect, but no voter, of any party,
Is so narrow minded as to CEN
sure a candidate of the opposite
political faith, for working in the
interest of his ticket. Apply the
ease to Mr.. TOwnSley. Is he
advocating the election of any
thing but the straight Republican
ticket? No. Then, why should
1t be a crime for the Democratic
candidates to do so? 1t is not.
The milk in the cOcOanut is that
Mr.. TOwnsley, knowing the pOlit-
zeal complexion of this county.
knows he needs Democratic votes
TIC WIN, and he is making an ef-

be good, but it is born of the de-
SIRE to win in the campaign. And
that Is all right. And so is it all
right for the candidates on the

Why Should WeY

One Of the Republican news
papers in this judicial district is
working itself into a frenzy be-
cause alf the papers in the dis
trict are not booming Judge Ban
ia, the Republican nominee for
district judge. When the candi-
ateS name was first presented we
mentioned the fact saying, "Mr.
Banta has been a practicing attOr
ney in this city and section for
many years, and is considered one
of the leaing attorneys in Kan
sas. This does not seem to
ave been enough for us to say
OF an opposition candidate, hence
We were taken to task. because,
perhaps, they needed Mr.. Banta'S
assistance in their own cases.
Now the facts are that Mr.. Banta
Is a good attorney, would make
a good judge if elected, but mas
much as he has never so far as
we know supported Democrats for
office, why should a Democratic
paper support him? We absOlve
Mr.. Banta from any knowledge of
the article referred to, but would
suggest his newspaper friends not
to expect something they would
not give. How many times have
the Republican papers of Great
Bend spoken complimentary of
