MARRIED

Miss Anabelle, daughter of Mr..
Mrs. A. G. Morrell west of the city,
was married to Mr.. Willis Lofland in
this city on October II, 1917, the
Rev. B. H. Albertson, pastor of the
Friends church, officiating. The
couple asked no questions about the
event, but simply went to the preach
er and became man and wife. When
the parents were appraised of the
affair there was much surprise, and
after thinking the matter over it has
been agreed to give the young people
the parental blessings. The bride is
the youngest daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Morrill, and of course they were
reluctant to see her go away from
home, especially to go without leav-
ing word of her intention.
The groom is a hard working
young farmer and will make a good
husband. The young couple will
make a home in the Blue Bell dis
trict east of the city. The Democrat
joins the many friends in wishing the
young people all the happiness and
prosperity as possible.

BEAVER GUN CLUB
HAS A NEW HOME

Several men of Wichita and this
city have been making plans to or
ganize a gun club and have a perma-
nent organization. In accordance
to these plans, the ranch house of
Frank Neill on the Beaver river, has
been purchased and will be converted
into country club for the Wichita
and the local nimrods. The organi-
zation is not perfected as yet, but
according to one of those interested
in the project the organization will
be in force in short time.
During the last week Paul s.
Woods, B. B. Anawalt and DR.. ]. w.
Cheney, prominent business and pro-
fessional men of Kingman, were here
and spent considerable time this week
at the new quarters on the Beaver
river. They were with C. K. Woods
j. E George, and o M Woods, who
were hosts to the visitors.
The club house will be the property
of the people in the gun club organ
ization, but the premises is the prop
erty of James Maloney of Skiddy,
who leased the ranch to the organiza-
ton insofar as the privileges for
using the grounds are concerned.

LIBERAL BELLIES
IN MAIZE FIELDS

Donning unionalls and tan leg
gings and cap to match, four pretty
young ladies of Liberal, the Misses
Ruth and Hazel Wolley Blanch
Fuest and Loe Reynolds, started to
gather maize on the farm of E. S.
Smith, Monday, and will continue the
work until the crop is saved from the
threatened weather. The Smith farm
is located about two miles south Of
the city. Mr.. Smith has been exper-
fencing much trouble regarding help
to care for his crop, and his two
nieces, the Misses Wolley, learned
that it was impossible to hire men,
they offered to do the work, and
their two friends offered their SER
vices. So, today, these young ladies
are in the maize field busily engaged
in saving the maize crop.
You have been reading in the Sun
day papers about the young ladies
in the east in the fields gathering the
crop but much of that may have been
fancy, but this quartet of girls on the
Smith farm this week is a reality and
that they will finish the work there
is no doubt for the young ladies have
the western spirit, blessed with the
best of health, and can speak the
Kansas language, and somehow we
never fear that class of people when
it comes to doing things success
fully.

BOUGHT LOTS FOR
NEW LODGE HOME

The l o o. F. and the Rebekahs
of Liberal recently bought the thirty
seven feet front on Second street
just across the alley from the George
grocery building, the site where the
city bakery is located, of M. F. Cava-
naugh.
The site is an ideal one for the
lodges. The site is 37x140 and af-
fords sufficient space for a large
building such as the lodges can use.
The sale has been pending for
some time, but the publication of the
transaction was not published for a
while on special request of the COM
mittee in charge. TheDemocrat con-
graduates the lodges for securing
the site and hopes to see the new
brick home begin construction at an
early date.
The Democrat has been having
some difficulties this week in that
with big rush of job work and a
lot of composition for out of town
newspapers, we are short on help.
Our Linotype operator left Tuesday
and the "old man. of the shop, he
self, was compelled to tackel the
Mergenthaler. Since he is not an ex-
perienced operator the little "types"
were not assembled with the degree
of celerity that should be done by
all regular and well qualified opera
tors. Added this we had to instruct
new hand in the use of the Ludlow
on which we set the ads. We shall
employ an operator if we can find a
man capable of running the machine
and getting out the work, but he
must be good one.

THE RAILROAD
PROJECT is ALIVE

Since the survey for the C. K, &
o. railroad was completed to Liberal,
there has been little or no effort to.
build the railroad due to the fact
that satisfactory arrangements could
not be made with the board of utili-
ties in regard to the stock. When
the promoters failed toA secure the
privileges that was thought right and
proper for them, they concluded to
sell for junk the few miles of road
which was in Scott and Logan coun-
ties, and quit the project. Accord
ingly they made application to sell
the property for junk. The follow
ing report which appeared in the
dailies the other day, tells what had
been done: "Under an order issued
this week by Judge John C. Pollock
of the United States District Court,
two Kansas counties-Scott and Lo-
gan-have the opportunity of pur-
chasing and operating the Colorado,
Kansas & Oklahoma Railroad, COM
TS0nly known as the"Jitney" road.
The road operates between Scott City
and Winona, in Logan county.
Judge Pollock's decree was issued
in the receivership case of the road.
The company holding the bonds of
the road threatened to junk it., but
following protests by the people of
Logan and Scott, Judge Pollock pro-
vided that the counties might vote
bonds to buy the line and operate it
under their own management and di-
rection. Bonds of $250,000, or $5,-
900 a mile, must be issued, accord
ing to the order.
In the meantime the road will be
run under a conductive receivership
and the two counties will provide a
100000 bond to insure the company
holding the bonds against operating
losses in the event the counties ulti-
mately fail to take over the road.
Friday evening delegation from
Scott City and Garden City came to
the city and met with the local rail-
road committe to arrange for secur-
ing bond in accordance to the order
of Judge Pollock, and Liberal and
Seward county was asked to assume
$4,000 of the bond amount, while the
counties on the north would take
care of the balance. The men from
the counties of Logan and Scott as
sert that they will make an effort to
take over the railroad. This being
done, there is as yet chance that
there will be a north and south rail-
road.

FAITH AND WORK DID 1T

Early last spring Frank Davis dis
posed of some of his property in the
city and concluded to try farming.
He leased the l.. A. Jobson farm
and planted large acreage to maize
and broomcorn, and other crops. He
was very well equipped to do gener-
al farming business, but he ventured
his all in the business and finally got
the seed in the ground, but not with
out suffering inconvenience and
the lack of moisture that occurred
which many farmers will ever re-
member. The spring and summer of
1917 will go down in history as one
of the drouths on the western sec
ton. And while this dry period ex-
listed, Frank Davis endured it all with
patiencethat was admirable. Many
people predicted that there would be
no crops this year, but he kept at
work just as though he had all the
prospects in the world. Then when
the rains did come, his ground was
in condition to receive it, and the
crop he planted has yielded we'll
The other day Mr.. Davis brought his
broomcorn to town, about seven tons
of it, and received about 1910 a ton
for it He has also about forty acres
of good maize. From our informant
we gather that he will be able to
realize about $4,000 for his labors
the past summer. And the story re-
garding Mr. Davis can be said of 9th
ers, excepting perhaps that Mr.. Davis
made the venture and kept his nerve
in the time of the threatened drouth,
with more at stake for his financial
ability to stand total loss than
many.
