taxes, extravaganza and other little
matters that tend toward the wrongs
and unjustified burden of the taxpay-
ers of Trego county.
OF course, this makes little differ
ence to you as / fail to find of record
in the county treasurer's Office where
you ever paid as much as one cent
taxes in Trego county.
And, Sir, / extend to you and Mr..
Larabee a. special invitation to show
in either of my articles any thing Gn-
fair, any malice, any getting back"
any personal grievance, lin the sense
in which you used the term,) in fact,
any thing unreasonable, or any thing
solicited on my part that should not
be published for the benefit of the
citizens and taxpayers of Trego
county.
In as much as Mr.. Larabee COM
menced this series of articles, fair
and consistent honesty, right and jus
tice to one and all demand that any
citizen or taxpayer should have an op-
portunity to answer any thing the
gentleman might have to say. Will
simply say that no one has ever
charged or accused you of having an
''opinion though you have tried to
plead guilty more than once.''
/ find that / am consuming too
much newspaper space, so will simply
say that your pretentions, bigotry
and egotism concerning these matters
and the controversy named are ex-
celled and surpassed only by your ig-
norance of the law, of the purpose of
injunction, the object of an expert
examination of the county records,
and your ignorance of Mr.. Larabee's
authority. Excuse me, Mr.. Bingham,
but will just say that should all hunt
ers in Trego county be out shooting
k-keepers, you would be perfectly
safe any distance from an inch up;
can be more explicit if you wish. If
you can't wash Mr.. Larabee's dirty
linen, cover it up if you can, but be-
fore you get Permission from Mr..
Larabee" to tell the public: 'sWhat
becomes of the county's money and
why are taxes increasing it might
be we'll for you to show and prove to
the public that you will be fair, truth
full and honest in the matter, and,
that you are competent and capable
and in addition to these you should
say to the public that the colums of
the Reporter are open to any taxpay-
er other than S. Nj. Hutzel to point
out your errors and false statements
and that any citizen or taxpayer ex-
cept S. NJ. Hutzel has the privilege
of tearing off your mask and showing
you up in your true light and as you

Kansas City Market Report

Kansas City Stock Yards, March 21,
1911.
Repeated declines lately on beef
steers appears to have aroused
a rebellion among feeders today and
the supply was cut down one third
from recent Tuesdays. Rising tenn
perature, together with other ad-
verse features, have made the big
beef animals slow to move for two or
three weeks, and the market yester-
day touched the low spot of the win
ter on some kinds. Anything under
1900 lbs. weight is selling steady to-
day, steers above that weight dull,
and sometimes a little lower, run
here 5000 head. Stockers and feeders
are 10 lower today, but they could
stand further losses and still be
bringing remuperative prices, as COM
pared with beef steers. A small
drove of steers brought Sc. So yester-
day, top this week, which was only
10 cents under Chicagos top same
day, where they had twenty five
| thousand CATTLE on sale. Some
steers sold at $3.50 here today, but
$3.50 to S6.15 catches most of them.
A year ago best steers were bringing
around SS.25 and not many sales were
under s6.25. Receipts at the market
last March were about as heavy as
they are this month. Big increase in
hog and sheep receipts all around is
the only explanation of the discrep-
ancy. Butcher grades are holding up
pretty good, although bulls are some
lower this week, and calves are off 25
cents today, following a big break
since a week ago. Bulk of cows bring
"a. 90 to S5.25, heifers up to $500, bulls
"a 90 $50, calves $3.50 to $3.50, stock
steers $3.50 to $3.50 feeders $40 to
$500.
Hogs recovered some of the loss of
yesterday this morning, run here A.
600 head, market 10 higher. GuesSes
yesterday on the supply today never
fell below twenty thousand head, and
as the same idea of holding back
struck the shippers to all the mar
kets today, higher prices were logical.
Traders are at sea when figuring on
probable supplies ahead. The big
run of heavy hogs yesterday indicated
that feeders had been feeding for
weight, and if that were a general
condition it should mean liberal runs
right along. But today's slim run
shows that there are so many hogs
ready to come but that the country
can hold them back when it wants
to- Heavy weights sold at $500 to
s6.67 IL here today, medium weights
s6.65 to s6.77 II, light weights s6.7O
to s6.77 1-2.
Run of sheep dropped down
today to 5000 head, following a sup
ply of nearly $4,000 head yesterday.
The market is holding about steady
to-day, little lower than close of
last week, top lambs 1925, clipped
lambs $500, light yearlings s5.65,
wethers So, clipped wethers $40,
wooled ewes S4.75. Colorado is ship
ping out fast, but has enough to last
three or four weeks yet. Native ter
ritory is pretty well drained Texas
grass muttons will start in April.

Guessed Why

my daughter made a big mistake, :"
remarked old John Tellit; while wait
ing for the mail to be distributed,
'swhen she turned down the chance
of marrying country boy with fair
amount of worldly goods and eighty
but along came the town dude and
she promptly put out the bait to
catch him. He is one of those real
nice fellows kind that don't
swear or chew or tell bad stories =
keeps his hands nice and white,
shaves every day and presses his
trousers twice week, but he ate.
The country chap used to take her to
everything that came along and show
her a good time three nights out of
the week but this fellows idea of a
good time is to sit in the parlor and
read Shakespeare. He is SO confound-
ed nice that he won't even hug her
unless she tells him to. And in the
meantime the fellow she Tilted has
gotten to be more of a swell than the
town guy. He goes with the incest
girls in town, has an auto, and isn't
bit stingy with the gasoline. Yes,
she missed it alright and she knows
it now, but it's too late. Her oppor-
tunity got tired of knocking at the
parlor door and is gone never to re-
turn Optimist.

Here is a true story told by John
Mcdonald of the Western School
Journal: 1.-THE principal of village
school in Kansas one afternoon de-
tected a boy cutting the letters of
his name in the desk in front of him.
AS the novels would put it, the prin-
cipal rushed to the spot, angriIy put
forth his hand intending to grasp the
boy by the collar, when 10, and also
behold, close by the newly formed
letters were the initial of the prin-
cipars own name written himself
when he was a pupil in the same
school, His grasp upon the boys
collar unloosened itself, and he re-
turned to his desk a sadder and
wiser teacher That principal is to-
day judge of an important court in
one of the greatest cities in the
world We often wonder whether or
not in the administration of justice
the judge ever thinks of the incident
in the village schools"
