home, a hurried search for a boat and
a lonely passage across Spring river

matrimonial intentions the parents of
the Usage Indian girl had invoked the
aid of courts and sheriffs and govern

place this morning in Bentonville,

started back to Baxter Springs.
Romance and excitement and all the
elements of a thrilling love story have
figured in the drama which eliminated

THE SANE
NOT THE INSANE
MUST BECIDE


"We are embarrassed in the discus.
sion Of national issues by the fact that
one Of the presidential candidates has
been made the victim of murderous
assault. We deplore as deeply as Mr..
Rooseyelt's supporters do the act Of
the madman, who has temporarily dis
abled him for campaign work. We de-
nounee as bitterly as Mr.. Rooseyelts
supporters such resort to violence
even by one who Is bereft of his rea-
son. We sympathize with Mr.. Roose-
welt in his affliotion as sincerely as his
supporters do, and we wish as earnest
| ly as they for his speedy recovery.
But neither he nor they will ask for
a suspension of activities on the part
of Mr. Roosevelt's opponents, so long
as his friends continue to preent his
side on national issues.
THE questions before the country
must be decided by the SANE. A
MANIAC CAN NOT BE MADE AN
ARBITER IN SUCH A CRISIS. / am
surprised that some of the friends of
Mr. Roosevelt should attempt to make
use of this incident in his behalf 1t
can not be charged to the democratic
party--it can not be fairly charged to
any party.
THE suggestion that the assailant
was led to make the attack because of
newspaper criticism is a far-fetched
one, and even if it could be shown
that an unbalanced mind was influenc-
ed by criticism, it is no more Just to
demand suspension of the discussion
of pending problem on this account
than 1t would be to reject religion be-
cause some have gone insane on that
isubiect
Il have been a careful reader of the
papers since last June and I am quite
sure that the Taft papers have been
no more bitter in their assaults upon
Mr.. Roosevelt than the Roosevelt pa
pers have been in their assaults upon
Mr.. Taft, and neither side has attacked
the other with more virulence than
both have attacked the democrats in
campaigns past.
Il can show you as bitter things said
against me by both the friends of Mr..
Taft and the friends of Mr.. Roosevelt
as the friends of either have said
against the other. The papers say
many things that they ought not to
say, but | know Of no party that il
guiltess in this matter.
"A nation sits anxiousiy by the ex-
president5s bedside, hoping that the
wound is not a serious one, but Mr..
Rooseyelt's supporters must not use
this attack to protect themselves and
their position from just criticism. Tho
brave soldiers on battlefield do not
use the wounded for breastworks. they
stand out and give blow for blow.
And so in the campaign Mr.. Roose-
velt's supporters can not use him as a
shield to protect themselves against
the attacks that may be made against
the policies for which he stands" -

RaHIed sherins Force.

For three days the young Indian
heiress eluded officers who searched in
several states for her, and within a
few hours after the expiration of the
six months following her divorce from
a former husband she was welded to
the son of Charles L. Smith, editor of
the Baxter Springs News.
The 17-year-old Indian girl who to-
day become Mrs, James Smith is the
possessor of tribal allotments aggre.
eating $4,000. The elder Smith re-
Gently was appointed her guardian. A
few days later her parents, learning
of her intention to wed young Smith
today, brought action in the district
court of Cherokee county to have the
elder Smiths guardianship set aside.
Judge L. g. Sapp granted the petition
Wednesday.
Attorneys for the Smiths, however,
|asserted that her parents lost custody
|of her when she married her first hus-
band, Roy Thompson, year and half
Iago. But several deputy sheriffs be-
gan hunt for her when it was dis
covered, Wednesday morning, that she
had disappeared. Their quest was un-
successful.
Mother Brands it Real Love.
She had left her room by a window,
rowed by night across Spring river,
walked to Rogers, Ark, and telephoned
her fianeee to meet her there. He lost
no time in going to her and the couple
|remaine din seclusion until this morn
ing, when they were married in Ben
tonville.
Mrs. Charles L. Smith, mother of
the groom, said tonight that the mar
|riage is a love-match The fact that
the girl is wealthy has had nothing to
do with my sons attachment for her, :"
she added MY son and his wife love
each other, and they have done just
what any other couple would do under
the circumstances"

DIXON SENTENCED TO
TEN YEARS and PAROLLEO

George E. Dixon is q free man
that is, if he will conduct himself
in the proper manner for the next
three months, he will be allowed
his freedom. At 10 O'Clock this
morning. when court opened, quite
an assemblage of spectators were
present. After the reading of the
indictment and the finding of the
jury, Judge AVerill asked the de-
PENDANT if he had anything to say
before judgement was pronounced.
Attorney Patsy Bowler, who rep
resented the defendant through
the trial, arose and spoke for one
half hour in behalf of his client.
He also read q portion of a letter
that had been received from Mrs.
McKinnon, the wife of the victim.
In the letter the lady said that
her husband had left her six years
ago and had not given her support
during that time She did not
want to prosecute Dixon. The
district attorney replied with a
few remarks, after which the prl-
soner was told to stand up and re-
ceive his sentence. The court then
sentenced Dixon to ten years in
the Ne, ada state prison, at Car
son City, but suspended sentence
for three months. until August
IL, 1912, pending his good be-
havior. The cour, reserved the
right to call Dixon to time at any
hour he saw fit. Dixon was then
released, with the understanding
that he should report to the court
on August l1.-Tonopah Bonanza.
