MAKES GOOD
E. F. STILLwELL, JR. /,
Sixth Field Artillery, Battery A. On
the Battle Line, Somewhere In
France. Candidate for
Probate Judge, Demo-
cratic Ticket.

There are candidates and candi-
dates, but we wish to emphasize
strongly the claims OF that fine young
man and excellent citizen, E. F.
Stillweil, Jr., now on the battle line'
somewhere in France, and whose
ma any friends and we'll wishers have
put him forward as the Democratic
candidate for County Judge. Mr..
Stillwell gives an example of sturdy
patriotism and red -blooded, heroic
Americanism which should not be lost
on the good people and voters OF
Wyandotte county and we will be
very much prised--even shocked
il he is not triumphantly elected and
at the head of the poll. There should
be nothing too good for our boys,
yielding the last full measure OF de-
votion that you and may pursue
our ways in peace and comfort safely
at home, and here is splendid
chance to show that we appreciate at
least in some degree, their service
overseas in the cause of democracy
and republican institutions. Our
friend was not only badly wounded,
bus also "gassed" and, as he writes,
did not have his clothes of for
months, but he has kept right on
fl ghting just the same. The doctors
ordered him to return home for he
had done more than his part, but Mr..
Stillwell refused and is now In the
ranks again, fighting your fight and
my fight. He is with the Sixth Field
Artillery, Battery A; his record is
Al and Kansas City and Wyandotte
county, to a man, woman and child,

we hope to print in another issue.
make interesting reading, indeed, and
the best we have should not be good
enough for our soldier and sailor
boys battling on the soil of Lafayette
for all that we hold most dear. Com.
rade Stillwell was educated In High
School of Shenandoah county, Vir-
ginia; his father is Spanish Ameri-
can War veteran and our friend was
in the ice business; also with the Ar
mour Packing Company for some
time; he has considerable knowledge
OF business affairs; has dealt with
all classes of people; is man OF
poise and undoubted per-
sonal character, and as honest as the
day is long. Wyandotte county will
honor itself and secure first class
man for probate judge If we "put him
over" here, as he "goes over the
top" there. Conn ade Stillwell fills |
the bill in every respect; we "need
him in our business" and as the only
soldier on any ticket, now in the
trenches in faraway France, let us do
our duty here and elect him by the
largest majority ever given candi-
date for public Office in the biggest
and best town in the Sunfower State
He is offering his life for US there,
let us all give him our votes here; We
could hardly do less. Though
Brother Stillwell is on the democratic
ticket, his candidacy will appeal to
all who stand for the Stars anG
Stripes and believe the soldier
things being equal, should get the
preference every time.--Kansas

The wheat crop OF this county is
estimated by some as fair crop,
while others claim that it is from one
half to two.thirds of crop. The
yield per acre is not as large as usual,
but 1t is thought that the increased
acreage will make up the loss. In

yield is small and Indifferent, while
on the heavy clay soils the yield is
good, some lands yielding from % to

MORE HORSES TO
> START in RACES
War Prices of Training
Make 1t Necessary to

FLOYD GIVES VIEWS

Instead Of having a detrimental effect
high war prices and resulting high cost
of training horses will be beneficial to
the sport. for the simple reason that no
trainer will feel like keeping any horse
out of a race in which it is entered
This of course, applies to- the big
stables Many of the big strings have
two or more entries in many of the big
stakes According to past custom the
trainer. in such cases. would simply
start the one that he liked the best.
The others would stay IL the barn.
Now, however. with the cost of train
ing sky high, owners will not stand for
their horses not starting, This will
mean that the trainers will have to en-
gage other drivers to team their extra
horses in the stakes. which will mean
more starters and, therefore, more in
tereSt.
Kentucky Floyd. who has been a
prominent figure on the Grand Circuit
for many years, hit the nail right on the
head the other day when, in tanning
bee. he said:
"Do YOU know. think I'll just stick
around and pass the summer driving
extra mounts. You know, Murphy, Cox,
valentine and the others who have two
or three stake entries, will have to start
them all. You'll find that out right here
when the racing begins the second week
In July. And what is more, the driver
who gets these extra mounts will have a
good horse to drive, for those fellows
,,on't carry any poor ones"
And II Floyd carries out his plan it Is
a cinch that he will have plenty OF
mounts.

NEW RULES FOR
CAMP BOXING
Plan to Train Men for Bay
onet and Hand.to.Hand
Fighting
OFFENSIVE T ACTIC S

The War Department Commission on
Training Camp Activities has made pub
lie a new set OF rules to govern boxing
taught to the American soldiers. The pan
is to train them particularly for hand
to-hand fighting and bayonet work The
new system lays particular emphasis on
the aggressiveness of the boxer as this
is the particular quality which makes a
good bayonet man.
All side-stepping, covering up, sparring
for advantage position, are discouraged.
In some cases there are penalties to be
imposed on this work. The purely de-
fensve tactics will no longer be taught
the fighting men.
Under the army rules the bouts will
be limited to four rounds. with the
exception of special bouts and divisional
championship matches, which will be
permitted to go six rounds. Downs are
limited to the standard of ten seconds,
while in the novice bouts the rules pro-
vide that the rounds shall not be more
than two minutes in length
The real value of boxing, to the SOL
dier. 1t is explained by the authorities,
depends largely upon the development of
aggression and alertnesy In close quar-
ters fighting the art of self-defense is
not so essential it is Argued, when the
men are armed with bayonets or hand
grenades as are the purely fighting
qualities of the man.
DR.. Roycroft. of the War Depart
ment, in his explanation of the new
rules, says
"A fierce attacking forward action
bayonet charge means 9S per cent
quota of fighting men returned to safety
This Is one of the important reasons why
the new boxing rules set a higH premium
on offensive rather than defensive
| fighting"
