Mr. Ayen formerly lived in Silver City
right opposite the Nugget office and he
was married here. He is held in high
esteem by all who know him.

SPECIAL sESsIONIN JANUARY
Governor Calls Legislature To
Enact Revenue Laws

Governor Hawley has settled the
much-discussed question Of whether a
special session Of the legislature would
or would not be called by issuing a sum
mons for meeting of the solons to be
held on January l5
The work Of this sDecial session will
'he confined 10 the enactment Of reve-
nue. law, and providing for constitutional
amendments limiting the bonding pow
er Of cities and counties.
The new taxation BILLS being prepared
by Judge MacLane and Attorney Frank
Martin.
The governor has doped tile whole
thing out and says there will be no
special election, except maybe in Ban
mock County Counties that have been
divided will be represented BY the men
elected by the mother counties.
Ihe cost has been figured down to So, :
600, and the lawmakers will be in session
not to exceed twenty DAYS.
MacLane and Martin will have their
measure ready within a week and copies
will-be printed and mailed to all repre-
sentatlves and senators as we'll as to the
newspapers OF the state.
dawey says his desire is to place up
on the statute books an entirely new
revenue law, repeating all the old laws
and placing Idaho in line with the
most progressive states in the Union in
the matter of taxation
The proposed measure will also offer
amendments to the constitution Of the
state limiting the bonding powers Of
both towns and counties.
It is proposed to take away from the
counties the power to tax the public
utility corporations, such as electric
light companies, power companies, etc !,
and place that prerogatiye in the state
government. This feature. together
with the taxing Of inheritances and in
comes, viii, it is estimated, provide for
all the state expenses aud leave the
counties free to levy whatever rate they
please to meet their local demands.
The governor expects that the law
makers will take hold Of the matter in a
non-poitical manner and work together
tor good revenue law.
We trust his optimism as to this fea
ture will prove justified.

Wedding Anniversary

The numerous guests who were
so kindly hidden to the hospitable
home of Mr.. and Mrs. I. w. Cav
last Friday evening little suspected
from the invitations issued that the
occasion was their silver anniyer-
sary. However, a few had acci-
dentally learned the secret, and the
ladies' presented them with a huge
box of white carnations and fern.
An elegant gold lined silver fruit
dish was sent them by relatives
and beautiful silver tea set was
sent by old friends and the bank
officials at Mattoon, ILL.,, where
Mr.. Cav was an officer for SO
many years; they also rendered
them with kilograms and letters of
congratulation, which are so much
appreciated when one is a stranger
in a strange land.
After hearty congratulations.
the company engaged in the all
absorbing game of five hundred
until the hostess gave the signal
that it was time to eat"
The unique one course lunch
consisting of real Boston baked
beans, chicken sandwiches, pickles,
and coffee was greatly enjoyed.
The coffee was drunk from silver
(tin) cups. with cards attached
bearing the dates l886-l9ll and
the names of the parties, Lucy
Mcbride and Thomas. w. Cav,
which served as souyiners for the
guests.
Miss Flood played Mendels-
shon's wedding march very effect
lively. She was followed by Mrs.
Cason who rendered the brilliant
Deuxeme Mazurka by Goddard in
her ever pleasing manner. Then
Mr.. Eddy favored the waiting
guests with some of his classical
rag time selections"
At late hour the merry COM
pany departed, wishing that Mr..
and Mrs. Cav might be spared to
celebrate many more anniversaries
and that they might be remember
ed with an invitation TO each cele-

A New Fire Auto

At the meeting of the city cOun-
Gil Wednesday evening, the Lib
eral Auto Co. submitted a propo-
sition to build and maintain a new
fire automobile truck for the city.
The proposed fire truck will be
mounted on a chassis with a wheel
base of 144 inches and is to be
equipped with an engine of 30
horse power, which will develop a
speed of not over % miles per
hour. The truck will have a ca
pacity of two or three tons. and
will carry the chemical tanks, a
thousand feet of. hose, two eight
foot ladders, two plaster hooks,
one twelve foot extention ladder,
two hand genades, and the other
needed equipment. The present
carts are too bulky to handle.
The chemical tanks alone weigh
about 100 pounds, and in case of
a fire it is impossible to haul more
than the chemical tank to the fire
behind the automobile. Then in
case the hose carts are needed it is
necessary to make another trip to
the garage. or wait till they are
brought by hand. This delay is
a menace to the service to be ex-
pected under present conditions.
If the hose carts are taken to the
fire first it may be that some home
will be absolutely ruined on ac-
count of having the water turned
into a small fire where the chemi-
cal tanks would Oe adequate 10
the needs of the occasion. The
pressure of the new system will
be so strong that, if turned into a
house, 1t would ruin not only the
furniture. but probably the house
itself also. The fire equipment
would enable one man TO take the
entire FIRE fighting apparatus to a
fire without waiting for the de-
partment, which, in towns, the
size of Liberal, have continually
proven a failure. During the
past two years of the present vol
unteer department, there are only
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1911-12-08

one or two men that have ever re-
sponded to the call. The new
equipment will enable two or three
men to put out most of the fires
and enable them to get to the hire
in ten minutes after the call is
turned in. There are also num-
ber of other arrangements that
we're advanced for the new equip
ment. The new truck will cost
the city about $500, and will be
maintained at a cost of less than
5000 per year. 1t will give us the
same service that Guymon now
has at a cost of better than $1,000
per year. The Liberal Auto Sup
ply Co. agrees to have a man to
run the truck on duty all of the
time, thus doing away with the
necessity OF the hiring of a man
for that duty alone, by the city.
The cost of making the fire will
will be made on a business basis,
the garage people charging the
city only for the actual time the
man is at work for the city. 1t is
also said that this will decrease
the insurance rates in Liberal, but
no definite figures we're produced
at the council meeting, but it is
expected that they will be on hand
for the next meeting of the coun-
Gil.

DIR. PELLETTE ARRESTED
Osteopath Charged With
Manslaughter

Df. II. Il. f0lleIIe, Wuo WAS
some time ago acquitted of the
charge Of mistreating his children,
was arrested Tuesday afternoon on
charge OF manslaughter in the
fourth degree. He gave bond of
$500 signed by Mr.. Church and
Mr.. Hoskinson for his appearance
for preliminary hearing which will
be held on Tuesday, December
10Th.
On October 4th Mrs. Leila Bell
McNabney was i'll, and DR.. Pei
lette was called to attend the case.
Several hours after the birth of
the child, Mrs. McNabney died.
Upon the return of the death GER
tificate to the city clerk. who is
now in charge of the vital statis-
tics DIR. Pellette made notation
which may be said to have impli-
Gated DIR. r. 7. Nichols who was
called in consultation in the case.
The return was in due time re-
turned to the State Board OF
Health and there given to the sta
tistician of the Borsd OF Health.
He, in turn, turned the matter
over 10 the state board of Medical
Registration which referred the
matter back to the state Board of
Health, which in due time ordered
the county attorney of Seward
to make an investigation of the
affair. This was done and the
warrant for DR.. Pellette was is
sued. The warrant says in part:
''On the fifth day of October.
1911, in Seward county and State
of Kansas, one, E. F. Pellette did
then and there, unlawfully, felon-
ousIy and wrOngfully, by his acts
and culpable negligence, said acts
and culpable negligence not being
excusable or justi6able, kill, take
the life of and cause to die, Mrs.
Leila Bell McNabney, and the
said Mrs. Leila Bell McNabney
did die from the said acts and culp-
able negligence of said E. F. Pei
lette on the fifth day of October.
A. D., 1911, in the county of Sew
ard and state of Kansas"
On account of the proximity of
the arrest to the term of the dis
trict court, it is probable that the
case will not come to trial before
the spring term of the district
court. in case the evidence in the
preliminary is deemed by the JUS
tice sufficient to bind the defend
ant oyer to the district court.
The charge is brought under the
statute which makes it felony,
punishable by a term of not less
than six months in the county Jail
or more than two years in the pen
itentiory.
