Man Free Many Years.
Atlanta, Ga, April "a. Denied a
pardon by Governor Joseph M. Brown,
who denounces the unwritten law, un-
der which executive clemency was
asked, Thomas Edward STRIPPING is
bordering on a physical and nervous
collapse. Fourteen years ago Stripping
escaped jail after conviction for muir

an assumed name lived at Danv1lle,
Va, where he was elected chief of
police. He admits killing William J..
Cornett, who, he declares, insulted a
woman member of his family.
1t Is not believed that Stripping VIII

administration of Governor Brown,
but that he must wait until q new
governor takes office. He was or1gi-
nally sentenced to life imprisonment

EXTRA SESSION POSSIBLE

Governor Stubbs stated Sunday
that there are many people in the
state urging him to call an special
session of the legislature to enact a
presidential preference law. He also
stated that he is very much in doubt
if presidential primary held with
out a law would be practical.
'sWhere did you boys get the spec
ial session idea?r he asked of the re-
porter.
He was told that special session
talk had loomed up as big as a house
about the capitol for a week.
.-Wl.o told you?'' he asked.
WHO did you talk to about it?''
was the reply
I'm not saying" he replied. Il did
talk to a couple of men recently
about it,
ssDo you think that a primary
without law would be practical?''
was asked
81 doubt it very much," he an
swered. .'Now 1 don't say that it
can't be worked out, but 1 have my
doubts that it can be done satisfac-
tory"

is leisurly making his way home by

Wendt says:
81 am surprised at the feeling of
the people toward Governor Harmon
of Ohio for the Democratic presiden-
tial nomination. Among the farmers
of Missouri and Eastern Kansas, he
is very strong. This talk about
Clark is not considered at all serious
in Missouri and that state when the
time comes will be for Harmon for

UNFAIR TO THE WEST

Why is Western Kansas so persis-
tently ignored In the location of the
State institutions? Why is the en-
pire west of Ellsworth considered be-
yond the dead line and out of the
range of human possibilities by those
who have in hands the distribution
of State institutions?
West of the ninety-eighth meridian
of longitude lies the Empire of the
grass lands. Men have grown old
and grey in this western third of
Kansas fighting the battles of the
frontier and making an agricultural
empire of the millions of semi-arid
acres that stretch away to meet the
sun. When Kansas came into the
Union as a new state the western
third was considered liability in
stead of an asset The settlers of
western Kansas are men of nerve and
brain and Drawn who have spent
fifty long weary years, who have
stayed and helped and hoped and
prayed and made an Empire.
Each December for fifty long
years the men of this western En-
pire have turned the golden sheckles
into state treasury that has abso-
lutely no limit to capacity. The
Snbduing of the grass lands of this
vast empire has cost some rich red
blood. Through tears and prayers
and unremitting toll the prairie has
been made to yield up it's fruit.
These western Kansas men have
fought their fight alone, unaided by
state that has accepted the monet
cry contribution from the land it
almost Scorned.
Instead of liability fifty years has
transformed the Empire of the grass
lands into a genuine, gilt edged asset
of a great Commonwealth. In all
these years western Kansas has been
tolerated but never welcomed into
full fellowship in the making of a
state. We're too dry out here to
produce anything but taxes. It's all
right for us fellows to live here and
pay our tax but it wouldn't do for a
state institution to come out where
we live. That's out of the question.
| Isn't it time for the great state of
Kansas to slip up behind these old
boys who have made the west, slap
them on the back and say: you've
made an Empire out of the desert
out there. Go to it fellows, we are
with you" Oakley Graphic.

SOME TAFT SENTIMENT

Judge Ruppenthal has been lately
seeking expressions on presidential
possibilities in Kansas and the
the judge says that it is the general
opinion of the republicans and demo-
Gratis alike that Taft will be renomin-
ated, although LaFollette has many
followers and some dissatisfied repub-
licanS are inclined toward Wilson,
although he is a democrat. The dem
ocrats who are looking for man who
can be supported by men of all par
ties are looking to Wilson, and not at
all to Clark.
Among the democrats the favor is
fairly we'll divided between Wilson
and Clark, and there is rarely Har-
mon democrat to be found-so the
judge says. The republicans mostly
approve the presidents stand on ar
bitration but do not approve his re-
ciprOcity policy.

LAST ROLL CALL

Last Saturday afternoon, Josiah
East died at the home of Samuel
Parks, north of town, after year or
more of failing health. Mr.. East
came to Trego county nearly twenty
five years ago and has been one of its
honored and respected citizens up to
the time of his death. He was born
in Illinois, March Is, 1916, and was a
veteran of the civil war, having join
ed an Illinois company of volunteers
and served until the close of the war
when he was honorably discharged.
Mr.. East was quiet man who at
tended strictly to his own affairs. He
possessed kindly nature and his
honest, upright mode of living won
the respect and admiration of those
who knew him. For the last several
months he had been threatened, with
blindness and after complication of
stomach and liver trouble arose, he
failed rapidly in health and strength.
Ellsworth East, the only relative
able to come, arrived to attend the
funeral which took place Wednesday
morning. at the Methodist church,
conducted by the pastor, Rev. Greene.
The Kieverson Quarteete furnished
the music. The remains were laid to
rest in the Wa-Keeney cemetery. He
is survived by three sisters and four
brothers besides Ellsworth East, who
is here settling up his business.

Hon. /. T. Purcell,
County Attorney,
Wa-Keeney, Kans.
Dear Sir:-Referring again to our
correspondence and conversation in
regard to whether or not the Board
of County Commissioners have auth
ority to pay a bounty for the killing
of jack rabbits or for jack-rabbit
scalps, / beg to say that my former
opinion which was written to you
some time ago was based upon an in
vestigation of the General Statutes
of 1909, and from an examination of
the 1909 Statutes, / determined that
there was no such authority. A fur
ther examination, however, reveals
the fact that in the Gen. Statutes of
1901 and 1905 was printed chapter 80
of the session laws of 1899 which
provided that the county board may
pay bounty for the killing of wolf,
coyotes, wildcat, fox and rabbits.
This section has never been repealed
either directly or by implication.
Later sections have covered the SUBJ
jects of wolf and coyotes and chapter
80 would probably be held to be re-
pealed as to wolf and coyote scalps
by their enactment covering the
same subject, under the same rule
that the last expression of the Legis-
lature will prevail. However, there
has been no subsequent legislation in
regard to the bounty on rabbits. L
have taken the matter up with the
Hon. @. F. w. Dassler of Leaven-
worth and have before me his reply
in which he states that Chapter 80
was omitted from the 1909 compila-
tion of the statutes by mistake. l
am therefore of the opinion that
Chapter 80, of the laws of 1899 as it
appears in section 1857 of the Gen.
Statutes of 1901 is still in full force
and effect as to the rabbit bounty and
the board of commissioners have am
pie authority to pay such bounty.

tertainments in one. For not only
does Mr.. Hubbard talk about art in
general and music in particular. but
he also has a full sized song recital
given to illustrate and send home the
points he has just made. He has as
sociated with him Alfred Bergen, bar
itene, and Gordon Campbell, pianist,
and these two artists present a COM
plete song-recital program, the num-
bers being sung and analysed and ex
planned by o1r. Hubbard.
Mr. Bergen is a young American,
gifted with baritone voice said to be
Of exceptional richness, sympathy and
power. and his interpretative abilities
are declared to be such that he has
been classed by eastern critics as
wOrthily ranking with David Bisp-

Mr.. Campbell the pianist. is an ac-
companist who has been compared
favorably with Frank La Forge, the
gifted associate Of Nine. Gadski and
Nine. Sembrich on their recital tours.
He is said TO play all the accompani-
ments from memory, and thus COM
plements fully the artistic intent Of
Mr.. Bergen's singing. The program
presented covers a wide range, selec-

from the song literature of Europe

MOST SEVERE COLD
IS EASILY BROKEN
ENDS ALL GRIPPE MISERY
IN JUST \ FEW HOURS

Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit Of three years research at a cost
OF more than fifty thousand dollars
and contains no quinine, which we
have conclusively demonstrated is not
effective in the treatment of colds OF
grippe.
1t is a positive fact that a dose Of
Papes Cold Compound, taken every
two hours until three consecutive
doses are taken, will end the grippe
and break up the most severe cold,
either in the head, chest, back, stom-
ach, limbs or any part of the body.
1t promptly relieves the most miser-
able neuralgia pains, headache, dull
ness, head and nose stuffed up, fever
ishness, sneeZing, sore throat, running
of the nose, mucous catarrhal dis
charges, soreness, stiffness and rheu-
matte twinges.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine, made any
where else in the world, which will
cure your cold or end grippe misery
as promptly and without any other
assistance or bad after-effects, as a
25 cent package of Pape's Cold Com
pound, which any druggist in the
world can supply.
