KICKS COMING IN.
Spme Folks Object To Routes Of the
Proposed County Roads.

Since the proposed county roads
nave been announced by the board
of county commissioners have been
announced, a number Of complaints
Regarding the routing Of the same
hfme begun to come IN. Adolph Held,
who Hives just south Of Hoisington,
was in the city the first Of this
week with petition which he will
circulate here and In Hoisington ask
ing that the route between Hoising-
tom and Gneat Bend be changed to
one mile east from the one proposed,
as he claims II win not only ac-
commodaHe a greater number Of peo-
pie, but viii be a better road and
more convenient in every way.
T. B. Unruh, Of Liberty township,
wants the county road to follow the
Santa Fe up the railroad, instead Of
going straight west from town four
miles and then south two miles, then
west one mile and then south, join
ing the Santa Fe trail again at Dun
dee. He believes that the route UP
the railroad track will make a fine
highway and will be Of benfit to a
great many more people than the
road as now planned.
Just what action, If any, the CON-
missioners will take regarding these
complaints is problematical. Natur-
all. they expected a certain amount
Of objections, for It world be impos-
sible to so lay out the roads that all
would be suited, but it was their in-
teuhion to designate such roads as
would be Of the most benefit to the
people as a whole, and If it cam be
shown to their satisfaction that a
mistake has been made in the mat
ter we have NO doubt but what the
proposition Will be reconsidered and
readiusted. But they will have to
be shown.

A PIONEER HAS GONE.

The friends and acquaintances d
John Hall In and around Pawnee
Rock were saddened on Thursday Of
last week when the news came hele
from Isaben, Okla, that he had on
the previous evening succumbed to
an Illness attendant by his weight
of years and the natural decay OF
the tissues, the departed one being
at the time Of his death beyond his
SOth year. Mr.. Hall came to this
country in the year 1875 and home
steaded the place now owned and oc-
cupied by his sOnlnlaw, Mr.. Perry
Nairu, several miles south Of town.
1t was here that a family Of ten
children was reared, and where Mr..
and Mrs. Hail resided until about ten
years ago when they removed to Ok
lahoma. Mr.. Hail was man who
did his fun share toward the better
ment and advancement OF this COM
munjty by uniting sound sense with
strong convictions. His candid, out
spoken temper eminently fitted him
to mold the rude elements Of pioneer
society into form and consistency,
and aid IN raising a high standard OF
citizenship In OUT young and grow
ing state. How much this community
owes him and such as he, 1t Is I'M
possible to estimate, though It wouId
be a grateful task to trace his In
fluence through more direct channels,
to hold him up IN these days IN hts
various characters Of husband, father,
neighbor and friend; to speak Of the
sons and daughters he has reared TO
perpetuuate his name and emwaoe
his virtues. But it comes not within
the scope of this brief article to DO
so. Suffice 1t to say he lived noOtg
and died peacefully. The Stern Reap
er found him as a shock Of wheat ful
" ripe for the harvest. Few Of US
will live aa long or as we'll. The
funeral services were held last Sat
urday and were attended from tins
place by his daughters, Mesdames W.
NJ. Lewis and Perry Nairn.-Herah.

EYRE GOES BACK TO ASYLUM,

Jacob Eyre, who was sent to the
state asylum few months ago and
a few months afterwards released as
cured. has Of late been causing much
Of the southeast part of town where
disturbance among the residents of
the southeast part of town where
the family lives, that he has been
taken in charge by the officers and
will be sent to the asylum for the
criminal insane as soon as arrange
ments can be made. For several
weeks he has had a good portion Of
the women of that neighborhood just
about scared to death, and 1t Is re-
ported that he has attempted to as
saut some OF the neighbor women
and ginlB, and 1t is said by some Of
the neighbors that the only reason
that he has not been filled with
buckshot on account Of his actions
is that sympathy was felt for him
on account of his feeble condition. At
the time Of his release from the asy-
lum it was done at the request Of
relatives who promised to care for
him, but they have found that they
have a bigger job on their hands
than they contemplated and they re-
qaested the officers to again take
him in charge.

early the next morning the youne
man in the case appeared at tht

purpose Of securing a marriage b.
cense, giving his age as 21 and thai
Of the young lady as 10.
But during the time intervening
since they had left home on Sunday
the families had become cognisant q
their intentions, and Judge Hall hat
received a message telling him no
only to refuse to issue the license
but To hold the eouple until ths
parents could arrive.
The Judge told the young man o.
the message and refused TO issue th'
license, but as none Of his salary
is paid him for the detention Of run
away couples, that part Of the pro

THE sILo SPECIAL.
Coed Crowd Attended and Heard n
terestIng Discussions.

Probably 200 farmers or men and
women interested IN farming, were
Rt the Santa Fe depot Saturday to
meet the stln special and get point
ers on the construction Of the same,
the adaptability Of the various kinds
The proper time to put the feed in
them and the proper way to do
the work, and a number Of other
interesting features which would be
valuable knowledge to the four or
@Te hundred other men who stayed
Up town, not thinking It would be
worth their while to hear the talks.
The special was made up by the
Agricultural College and the Farm
Division of the Santa Fe and was on
It's way back to Manhattan after a
weeks demonstrating trip over this
section Of the state. On two of
the cars were miniature silos, both
concrete. cement plaster, wood staTe
and metal, and the various good and
bad points Of each was discussed by
the speakers. There was also a
Emal ensilage cutter, driven by a
gasoline engine, together with an
elevator which delivered the chopped
teed into the sibo.
The talks were interesting and
no doubt beneficial to all who heard
them. OF course there was not a
great deal done IN the silo building
dne In this part Of the state this
year, from the fact that there was
about nothing to fill them with af-
ter they were built, but the idea Is
taking root that they are a valuable
adjunct to any farm where stock Is
handled, and that should mean every
farm in the country. They are an
investment that will without question
return good interest on the invest
ment.

FRIDAY,
GOVERNOR MANN.

Governor Mann by his course in the cases OF
the Aliens has earned the sympathy and sup
port Of the thinking people of Virginia and of the
country, regardless of their sympathies Of their
opinions on the Hillsville tragedy and Of their
feeling toward capital punishment. That punish.
mcnt is provided BY law for certain crimes. The
governor does not make the law. His duty is
to execute 1t as 1t IS He is an executive official
if he is convinced that the specified crime has
been committed he has no more right to override
or disregard the law than he has to reverse a
provision Of the constitution.
From the beginning ~ the horrible tragedy
