II was treason tors swain of Tribune,

and les majestic for citizen of Horace
to even hesitate while passing through
the town of Tribune. Diplomatic reIa.
tions had long since been called off when
the county seat fight came up. And that
fight was long and bitter one
Tribune won the prize, and Horace
vowed vengeance.
In the election to vote bonds for a
court house, Horace saw chance for
revenge, even though securing it necessi-
tated the removal Of her own nose to
spite her face.
Horace fought the bonds, and fought
'em hard.

Tribune in self.defense, rallied to arms
and responded nobly to the call of her
country-that part of it lying outside the
corporate limits of the village Of Horace.
Tribune won and the court house was
built. The chasm between the two towns
widened irreparably during the bonds
fight. All agreed that there could never
be conciliation, yet all likewise agreed
that there was at least one thing to be
thankful for-the fights were over and
never again could anything arise that
would cause renewal Of open hostility
between the two municipalities.
But ic the last presumption the Opt.
mists erred The trouble between the
two towns had just begun.
Horace was made division point on
the Missouri Pacific.
Those who have had occasion to ride
on the Missouri Pacific during the past
FIVE years, may perhaps wonder what
there could have been about a Missouri
| Pacific division that was worth fighting
for, but in those days the said Pacific
was il better shape than it is now, and
| all western Kansas towns were sadly in
, need of anything that would tend to keep
the wolf from the door.
As indicated above, Horace got tie di-
vision point.

also kept her eyes and ears open in hopes

READY FOR REVIVAL
Meetings to be Conducted In Es-
pecially Erected Tabernacle
e. p. Pratt, Evangelist.

The union revival meetings.
which it is planned to continue for
at least month. will begin next
Sunday, the first service to be held
at III go a. m. at the tabernacle
built especially for the purpose, at
the corner of Main and Colorado
streets. Evangelist E. p Pratt of
Kansas City, assisted by "a singer,
Herbert j. Calkins, will con-
duet the meetings. Rev. Pratt
conducted the meeting at Lamar
last August which resulted in 400
conversions.
The song service will be a fea-
ture of the meetings. Miss Myrtle
Else is chairman of the committee
which will have charge of arrange
ments for the music. and she has
secured two pianos for use during
the meetings. The large chorus
which is hoped will be helpful
adjunct of the service, will be or
ganized by the singer who accom-
panles the evangelist.
1t is announced the evangelist
will not arrive in time to conduct
the first service. nor in fact until
Wednesday of next week. Be-
cause of this fact the Rev. Wiley
K. Wright. Presbyterian pastor,
will conduct the service Sunday
morning, and Rev. Blake, the Bap-
tist pastor. will conduct the even
ing service.
Cottage prayer meetings will be
held at six different residences to-
night and six such meetings were
held last night, in preparations for
the union meetings.
The revival will be held under
the auspices of the three churches
the Baptist, Methodist and the
Presbyterian. The tabernacle.
which will seat between five and
six hundred. has been built largely
by volunteer labor. Messrs. Bun.
nell, Garfield. Lewis, Speer, Gibbs.
Spencer, Blake. Wright and Van
Petten donated most Of this work.
The building is only temporary
structure, and the lumber used in
its construction has already been
sold. The tabernacle will be heated
by four large stoves which will be
ample to heat the building. The
floor will be covered to a depth of
five or six inches with straw. The
seats will be those taken from the
three churches, with the probable
exception of the pews in the Meth
odist church, The use of the site
was donated by the A. V. S. B. &
/. Land Co. through N. F. Vidal,

building is go feet long and 80

Although the fact may not be generally
known it is nevertheless true that Holly
numbers among her citizens today six or
seven men, who, twenty years ago. while
engaged in the rather dangerous occupa.
tion of making history in Western Kansas,
took part in one of the Greatest dramas
ever enacted in that section of state
that today is noted for her Iaw-aDiding
and peace-lovin& citizenship-a drama
that had all the tragedy that would be de-
manded by even the most exacting patron
Of Ed Chase's old Palace theater in Den
yer. Such drama would even meet the
requirements of old Lou Harris Seven
Buckets Of Blood theater ut Pueblo. And
to those who took active part there was
no comedy to relieve the mental stress
when the crisis was reached-unless one
could see something humorous in the
sight of one hundred and fifty good citi-
zens divided into two small armies and
marching toward each other, ready to do
battle to the death.
To the average Holly citizen who
knows the principals well, il would be
pretty hard to imagine such staid and
conservative men as Joe McMurtry, Geo.
Hollis and Frank Gretchen pulling guns
on peaceable and law abiding Sam Harden
and his son, J. b. Harden, Of the First
National Bank, ordering them to stop in
the road, throw up their hands, and per-
nit themselves to be searched for fire.
arms, the penalty for refusal to be death.
But such an incident once happened,
and there was no fun in it at the time,
and it wasn't being done for moving
picture film either. Both sides meant
business and both sides were ready to
shoot. (For the sake of historical ac-
curacy it might be added here that Sam
Harden admits that he held up his hands
and submitted to the ''frisk" by the belli-
serent Gretchen, McMurtry, ct aI)
The scene of the story lies in Greeley
county, Kansas, and the time is the year
1873. The plot is envolved around the
issue of county seat. And nobody but a
Kanssn or an old settler of the newest
| state, Oklahoma, knows what county
seat fight means. No citizen was ever
too poor or too weakened from priva-
tion and hardship but that he would
shoulder his musket at the call of the
leader and 70 to war for a county seat.
And speaking Of county seats, that was
about all that a good many Kansas towns
had to show ass means of support in
those days with which our story deals.
In Greeley county, (Which by the way
seems to have gone the limit in honorins
