First War in West Was
Right Here Near ke0kuk
1t Was the Honey War, Fought Eighty Years Ago, Be-
tuDsen IolDa and Missouri, Colonel Patterson Was
Leader IN Peace Conference at Waterloo

Edmondson and S. M Grant, Mis-
souri, diplomats, met William Patter-
son, DR.. J. D. Payne and l.. b.
Hughes of Iowa, in Waterloo and
reached an agreement for the arms
tice.
! The commissioners decided to APP
peal to the United States government
to decide the sovereignty of the
Honey lands.
Disguised with the tame ending to
their plans for martial glory, the
Marion county men opened up bar
rel of whisky, hung two launches Of
venison to trees labeled Governor
Boggs and Governor Lucas and filed
them with the bullets that they had
planned to use in winning the Honey
war.
When they marched back to Pal
myra many of the men turned their
coats inside out and all sang the roll
licking lines of the Honey war song
Missourians Still Dissatisfied.
Lewis county men were harder to
appease. A convention was held IN
Monticello and t1re-eating orators
denounced the commissioners, the
governors and everyone else who
had prevented a civil war.
year later the United States
awarded the Honey lands to Iowa,
and it Is noteworthy to recall that
this award was made on the recon-
mendation Of Captain Robert E.
Lee, who had made the survey in
1887. and who, TWENTY-FIVE years
later. was to win immortal glory
when he led the Missourians in an
other and far bloodier civil war.
The Honey war was ridiculed In
poem, written by a Palmyra rhym-
ster, and it was sung in disgust by
the troops who returned from the
The Honey War Song.
Ye freemen of happy land,
Regard not blood or money,
Conventions, boys, now let us hold;
Our honey trade demands it.
Likewise three bits, all in gold;
We all must understand 1t.
Now If the governors want to fight,
lust let them meet in person
And when noble Boggs old Lucas
f1ogs,
Twill teach the scamps a lesson.
Now let the victor cut the trees
And have three bits in money,
And wear a crown from town to !
town
Anointed with pure honey.
Dur honey trade will then be laid
Upon a solid basis; !
Will meet with smiling faces.

Missouri Returns to Hanging.

Arizona Republican,: The state of
Missouri after experimenting a year
and half has found it necessary to
restore capital punishment. Within
that short time homfcides became
much more numerous and lynchings
had become alarmingly frequent The
determination to restore capital
punishment was probably fastened
by recent event. a man who some
years ago had murdered two peace
officers was apprehended at Trini-
dad, Colo, and was returned to the
town where he had formerly lived.
While he was in Jail mob formed
of well known citizens, who made
no effort to conceal their identity,
entered and took the prisoner out
and publicly hanged him in the pres
ence Of the mother and wife, who
mad come to Jail to VISIT him
There had previously been lynch
ings of murderers who the populace
believed deserved death, but under
the existing law could only have
been sent to the penitentiary, and
who, though sentenced for life, would
probably have been free in five or
ten years.
Arizona went through the same
experience. The increase in homi.
cides was probably sharper here
than it was in Missouri, for we have
a larger proportionate population to
whom confinement in the peniten-
tiary means little. A hanging means
a great deal
So far as the statutes are concern
ed we have recovered from our two
years Of folly. 1t remains only for
courts and juries to exercise the
same good sense that the people did
at the polls last November and then
there will be fewer homicides
