Quite an interesting and rather
ludicrous case came up in Jus,lce
court Tuesday evening, when the
State held one Loss Cowgirl on the
charge of kidnapping a man whose
age is thirty years or more and who
has a wife and six children.
From the evidence it seems that
Mr.. Jim Womack. jr., the kidnappee
in question, disappeared from Liberal
on the 9th of last November and no
one has seen or heard of him since.
The preliminary brought out me
TACT that about all the evidence at
hand against the alleged kidnapper.
was that he waas seen with the miss
Ing man the day he disappeared
Further evidence divulged the fact
that Mr.. Womaek owed some debts
here, and that he was not well.
There have been several inYestiga-
tfons made to try to find the man but
to no avail, This last effort, like the
others, came to naught, because there
could be secured no reasons to cause
one to believe that the man had been
taken away and held against his will.
MIR. Cowgirl was set at liberty. The
wife and children OF Mr.. Womack
are now being cared for by the faith
er OF the missing man.

Can He Do 1t?

The county attorney at Liberal
seems to have been itching the last
week or two for a little business to
pick up and made the announcement
that he would clean up the entire
county, or words to that effect, If the
decent people would get in behind
him and help support the law against
gambling, liquor peddling and white,
slavery. The Liberal Democrat took
him at his word and came out good
and strong last week supporting him
anu incidentally handing lit to, a few
officials who have Been derelict In
their duty in the opinion OF the
Democrat. II is alleged that since
the big southwest fair up there, Lib
eral has been overrun with tough
characters and folks are getting
tired. II the county attorney is real
ly looking for live business we can
guarantee him, from this distance,
that he will have all he wants al
long as he attempts to really enforce
the law 1t will be interesting to OBJ
serve. how much success greets his
endeavOrs and how much interest he
takes in looking after the enforce
ment of law six months or year
from now. 1t takes a backbone Of

Refused Notices

Every editor has received them

master sends them to the editor. For
instance, We will say there is a maH
by the name of John Smith who re-
fused to take the paper out of the
Office. He did not care to take II
any longer. We wondered what was
the matter. Upon investigation OF
our subscription books, we find that
John was short $50. He had
stopped the paper as a matter OF
economy to us. A few evenings ago
we stepped into a church an Johns
melodious voice rang out loud and
clear in that soul-stirring song: "Je-
sus paid 1t ALL" We might have been
mistaken, but the earnestness i'm
pressed US. The next day we sent
him a receipt in full, begging his par
don for not knowing he had made
arrangements for his liabilities In
that manner.-Udall Times.

Bill introduced

Topeka, Jan. 23. = Governor

following appointments:
Member of the public utilities com.
mission, Myer Hurley of Kansas City
Kansas.
Member of the board OF control
Stance Myers of Leavenworth.
Warden, state penitentiary, ]. d
Botkin, of Winfield.
Adjutant General, Charles I. Mar
tin of Fort Scott.
The appointment of Botkin as war
den OF. the penitentiary and Meyers
as member of the board of control
were unexpected, as neither gentle
man had ever been mentioned for the
places. 1t was supposed that Botkin
would be appointed superintendent
of the Hutchinson reformatory and
Meyers had not been heretofore con-
sidered for any appointment.
Mr. Hurley's appointment was not
unexpected as he had been selected
by the labor leaders of the state and
unanimously recommended by organ
lied labor. Charles l, Martin Is a
republican, but his reappointment
was endorsed by practically the en-
tire state.
A woman's minimum wage bill was
introduced in both houses today. The
bill is framed along the lines OF the
New Jersey law and provides that SO
per week constitute the minimum sal
airy for factory or store work.

Editors are born boosters. The
other day an editor was solicited to
join a lodge and was handed a petit
tion printed by supply house; he
got a dun from merchant in a gov
ernment stamped envelope and writ
ten on gargling oil statement, he
made purchase at a store and got
a duplicate bill printed in Chicago,
and wrote a check on bank, printed
in Denver. Ye gods, how can an edi-
tor be expected to join lodges and
pay his bills for such treatment as
that, and all the time tell the people
to trade at home? Ever think OF IT?
Editors have to be born boosters,
prepared to live on dried herring and
stand for anything.-EE.

In nearly all OF the nationa
forests are millions of feet O
dead aud dying timber which, i
not utilized, steadily becomes a
total loss. Most of it is mac
cessible. and the conditions
under which any of it is disposed
of by the government does not
permit of sufficient profit to
induce many people to convert
it into cord wood. Something
should be done to make the dead
timber that is accessible availa-
bile for the use OF the people.
Tie price should be reduced to
the minimum or the trees given
away on the stump free of cost,
ii they cannot be disposed OF any
other way. 1t is true that it is
not practicable to save but a
small part OF such timber, vet
that which can be should be
removed. Such course would
make the dead timber a benefit
to the people and by removing
it from the forest would reduce
to some extent the danger OF fire.
Such timber would, OF course,
be removed under supervision OF
The forest rangers and it's re-
moval as completely as possible
would be highly beneficial rather
than detrimental to the cOpser-
walton policy. Much dead and
mature timber is removed from
the forests each year under the
psesent conditions, but such
removal would be greatly slim
hlated ii the government char re
