Much Criticism Expressed.
Much criticism is being expressed here
among the more radical Senators at the
action of the Finance Committee. These
Joker" clauses placed in the resolution
when il was redrafted in the Assembly
were denounced before the con1mittee
by Senator Hinnan. Senator Agne".
after Senator Hinman left the meeting

declared that the original draft Of the
resolution made by Senator Cobb after
consultation with Senators Davis, Hin
man. Neweonb and others was far bet
ter than the Assenply's substitute. be
suggested that the Senate comn1ittee
refuse to concur In the Assembiys
amendments. This finally the commit
tee admitted would be a good thing 10
do. but the committee did not do IT. me
point was raised that the leaders OF the
Assembly would take it as a rehection
on them, and at this stage of the SEES
sion 1t would preeipitate complications.
In short, as The Tribune this morning
pointed out exclusively, the Senate
Finance Committee surrendered on this
resolution to Speaker Wadsworth and
Assemblynan Merritt.
Senators Human. AgneT. Newconp,
wainwright. Bracket, Hamilton and
others are likely 70 join in the fight on
Monday night for q simple. straightfor-
ward resolution which would make pos
sible an unhampered graft investigator.
It is impossible now TO predict what
the result will be. Some Democrats VIII
stand with them, but some Of the radl-
Gals believe q good enough bipartisan
combination of old guardsmen exists IN
the Senate TO force through the Assem-
bly's notion of graft inquiry resolu-
ton.
Some Of the Senators RHO have been
most conspicuous in advocating the
Hinnan-C Green bill after to-day's con-
ference said that any compromise meas
tre which might be agreed on shouio
retain the Human Green title, as
matter Of political expediency and as
graceful concession to the Governor
Although defeated this week. this meas

Brutal-If True

County Attorney Field and ]. n.
Tincher were called to Kiowa on
Tuesday of last week-the former
to prosecute and the latter to de-
fend w. w. Wilhite who is charg-
ed with having committed an un-
mentionable crime on Eula Harri-
son, little girl about six years
old.
White waived preliminary ex-
animation and was brought to Jail
by Sheriff Mathews on Wednesday.
The prisoner stands accused of
having had criminal relations with
the child for about a week, but the
specific charge to which he is held
to answer, is an assault committed
Saturday evening prior to his arrest.
The little girls parents were out
Of town at the time and she was
staying at a neighbor's house.
Wilhite lived next door to the
house the child was staying and
induced her to come over to his
room. He gave her candy, apples
and oranges, according to the
child's story, and in that way got
her confidence.
The child was examined by Kio-
wa physicians and they report only
slight injuries.
1t is wrong to pass judgment in
case of this kind before the accuso
ed has had fair trial, but if the
little girls story is true, it is putting
it mildly to say that this man, who
is past the three-score milestone, is
wholly unfit to mingle with civil
lized people and would deserve to
serve the balance of his days be-
hind prison bars.

Arrested for Selling WhiSkey

LIE. Springer was arrested on
Saturday on information of Coun-
ty Attorney Field, verified by May
or W.Skinner, charged with SELL
ing whiskey to four different par
ties on March 18th.
The day of the alleged sales
there was a base ball game be-
tween the home team and the
King boys and there was consider
able drinking, and on Friday sub.
poenas were issued for ten of the
King boys-Jimmie Adams, Ora
Adams, Tim Clawson, Ben Good
sell, Ira Leddon, John Wells, J. w.
Lefever,W. H. Baumgardner, Chas.
Priest and Roy Massey. They re
ported at the county attorneys
office on Saturday morning and
several testified that they purchas-
ed whiskey of Mr.. Springer on that
day, after which he was arrested
His bond was fixed at $1,000 by
District Clerk Crane, which he
failed to give, and was committed
to Jail.
Mr.. Springer denies very strong
ly having sold the liquor. He says
that the men who testified against
him stole whiskey out of his house,
which he had for his private use,
and demanded a warrant for their
arrest.
If the defendant should be con-
victed on all of these counts the
minimum penalty would be $4oo
fine and I2o days in Jail, to say
nothing of what might happen il
the government should find that
he sold liquor without a license.

While returning home from this
city on Monday evening of last
week, w. A. Newkirk, j. B. Har-
baugh and Clarence Martin, of
the Gerlane vicinity, had an ex-
citing runaway. Mr.. Newkirk
was not hurt, but Mr.. Martin sus
tanned broken ankle and Mr..
Harbaugh sprained limb. The
team belonged to Mr.. >Newkirk.
He had bought the team recently
and was not acquainted with it.
The horses took fright at Waldron
Chase's automobile which they
met near the Grouse ranch six
miles south of town. The wagon
was overturned in turning a corner,
the team going on a hard run and
beyond the control of the driver.
When the wagon upset the team
became freed.
DR.. Coleman was called to
patch up Mr.. Martin and he will
soon be able to attend to business
but will not be able to do man
ual labor for awhile.

Too Far to Water

]. B. Brown, of Mama, Texas,
was an Alva visitor Monday. Mr..
Brown is a son of Uncle Billy

citizen of Barber county, Kansas,
east of Sharon. 20 years ago. J.B.
lived in the neighborhood of Byron,
in the old Woods county, for many
years, but has lived in Mama the
past five years. Mama is situated
on the Panhandle division Of the
Santa Fe, in beautiful valley at
the foot of what was formerly
known as the Staked Plains. 7. B.
tells an amusing incident that he
witnessed on a Santa Fe train as
he was crossing the Plains some
years ago. Besides Mr.. Brown,
there were a number of Ken
tuckians who were Seeing" the
country, and a young lady who
had spent some years in the pan
handle.
The Kentuckians were much in
terreSted in the strange country
about them and kept Mr.. Brown
and the young lady busy answer.
ing their questions. Finally Mr..
Brown, with view to interesting
the Kentuckians some more, said
to the young lady, chow far do
you haul your water?" "Oh," she
said, "about a mile and a half. "
"You ought to dig a WE'LL" said
one of the gentlemen. GLOW deep
is it to water?' ''Just about tn e
same distance" said the young
lady. Mr.. Brown did not re-.
port the rest of the conversation,
but we presume that the Ken.
tuckians hiked it back to old Ken
tucky where good spring water
abounds.-Alva Record.

A Lesson

elm going back to my farm"
said a retired Kansas farmer who
moved to town recently. "When
| lived on the farm and came to
town, the town men made a great
fuss over me. During the cam
paigns, when the politicians were
out over the country, they used to
stop at my place and make me
think l was one of the smartest
and funniest men in the state.
They would listen to suggestions
with great attentiveness, and fairly
kill themselves laughing at my
jokes. Now when l meet them on
the street they hardly speak to me.
| haven't had a cigar given me
since it became thoroughly known
that l was off the farm. l can't
tell joke any more that will at
tract any attention. In fact, when
l start in, the men begin to sneak
away. 1t only serves to show how
common are the men around town.

D. w. Stone Buys Fine Car

D. w. Stone purchased a fine
Mitchell car from G. ]. Southworth
Monday evening. 1t is six-cylin-
der, 4 passenger car, baby tonneau,
wheel base 13o inches, 50. horse
power with a speed rating of Is
miles an hour, and has the very
best equipment that money can
buy. This is without doubt one
of the best cars in the Southwest
and the only one of its rating that
carries only four passengers.
Mr.. Stone has gotten to the
point where he wants speed and
we believe he has every car owner
in southern Kansas distanced. He
is proud of the new motor and GER
tainly has cause to be.
Mr.. Southworth has a number
of these cars on the road now and
has them sold. The Mitchells
seem to be the right kind.
