THE STOCK LAW

To the Editor or the Wasnlng-
ton Telegraph: Y ,s-,~
On November 2 next we will
be called on to vote on the ques-
ton of General Stock Law for
this county, ~--.ari = Sy
There are very few people
who know anything about this
Act, and from the way It is be-
ing advertised it is evident that
the same old game is being
played to-witi ~, -
THAT OF SLIPPING IT
! OVER THE PEOPLE WHEN
THEY LEAST EXPECT 1T.
Now if the promoters of this
Act wanted fair deal they
would have given more public
ity to the question Of a General
Stock Law; but they surely
realize that the people as a
whole won't be benefited one
iota and would rise up against
such a measure. Anyone who
will take the time to think will
realize that there are thousands
of acres of land where cattle
can Craze. There are thousands
of people who have no land to
make pastures for their milch
cow that is kept in the humble
little home of the renter. These
cove are as dear to their chill
dren as the COW of the planter,
who has land to spare for pas
ture. Surely we haven't forgot
the lesson of the good Camari-
tan when He said: "DO unto
others as you would have them
do unto you" Imagine yourself
in the place of some of these
poor renters that you know
| would suffer if such measure is
carried in the November cleo
ton.
Our large towns have right
to a stock law, but what isgood
for them isn't the same for
our country neighbor, because
conditions are not the same,and
it is our candid opinion that
people of town that have a
stock law should consider well
before they vote a General Stock
Law on their country neighbors
who will be victims of such vi.
cious legislation.
If we would always vote t.
help the man of small means
then our country would become
a land of home owners instead
Of renters. Our acts should b'
to encourage the man of small
means instead of hampering hi.
Oprogress. Thin kof the thou
sands Of little children who vii
have to look upon milk and but
ter as a luxury if this act be
comes a law. Milk, the staff o
life for infancy, given 50 freel!
by the mother of the sucklins
babe, surely should not be de
pied to the growing children o.
this county just to satisfy a few
land owners who want to b,
spared the little expense o.
keeping up a fence around thei
rented farms. RUSTTCTTe

LABOR SlTyATIoNlS l,NS.::fTLiVG FACTOR
 IN COTTON MARKET

NcNw York, April l2. The cotton market was extremely nervous and unsettled today. During the carrier trading prices advanced on unfavor. able weather and crop news but later reacted under heavy realizing or lluui- datlon inspired by the disturbing la0or situation The final tone was barely steady at net decline of four to o5 points.
 The opening was steady, late months bclng relatively firm on private re ports of rain in central and eastern sections of the belt. There was buy ing of old crop months believed to be for southern mill account, and these positions quickly firmed up. Ol- terings increased as soon as the de- mand slackened however, and there was sharp break during the middle c of the day. There was trade buying on this decline, selling at l.68. Prl- Vate cables sald Liverpool had been unfavorably influenced by labor dis putes Tn Lancashire
 Exports today were 7,779 bales, making 5,289,451 so tar thls season. Port receipts 13,921; United States port stocks 1l94,6l7

New Orleans Cnlton.

New Orleans, April 12-lt was an irregular market in cotton today with considerable selling pressure after steady opening. After the inltlal advance there was reaction, followed by a period of unsettled tracing during which partial rccov- cries were made. Late in the scs- sion there was an increase in the pressure to sell, apparently on cx- pcctatlons of q better weather map Tn the morning, anu the close was at net losses o1 13 to 52 points.
 The steadlness on the opening was due to the rams in the belt over Sunday and to good cables. Reallz- ing by May longs had much to do with the easlness of the market dur ing the remainder of the scsslon. During a good part of the session there was sharp conflict ot opInlon over the crop situation.

raNIe's estate, according to the deci-
 sion of the United States court of appeals at St. Louis. The decision
 makes the closing chapter in one of the most interesting cases in the re- cent history of Kansas and Okla
 homa. Moncravie's estate. is re- polt ted to be worth several hundred thousand dollars. Legal talent from all over the country was interested in the case. e Mrs. Luella Clubb Moncrav:e, as she styles herself, shot her Indian
 husband few years ago at their
 pasatial home here. In trial at Winfield short time later, she pleaded self-defense, but was found
 guilty of manslaughtcr and was sent
 to the Lansing rpenitentiary, where she served five weeks. She was par
 doned by Governor Capper.
 Moncravie's property consisting
 largely of valuable oil lands in the
 Osage nation, was, hesides his Ar
 kansas City home, almost wholly ill
 Oklahoma, and Mrs. Mopcravie,
 after being pardoned from the peni-
 tentiary, sued in the Oklahoma courts for half her dead husband $ estate. The Oklahoma courts granted half the estate to her, but the other Moncravic heirs carried
 the case to the United States court
 of appeals at St. Louis. ss The other heirs contended in, the Oklahoma court that Mrs. Mon-
 cravie was not entitled to any con- sideration in the division of Mon-
 cravie's property, since she had been convicted of manslaughter against him in Kansas. They held tn. i same position i'll the United States court.
 The federal court, however, held that nianslaughter is a crime with
 penalty enforceable only in the
 state in which it is committed, and that Oklahoma cannot enforce the penal statutes of Kansas, nor add to 2 punishment pronounced by Kan sas court upon person under Kan
 sas court Jurisdiction. The court
 was of the opinion that the witf-
 holding of the property from Mrs.
 Moncravie by the Oklahoma court
 would be adding to the Kansas courts mansls,ughtcr penalty.

Helene's Married Life Copyright by Mcclure NevsDap Syndicate

Alice's delight over the unexpected return of the diamond bracelet filled me with astonishment. For a mo ment she was speeches.. Then, with gasp of utter relief she literally fell upon my neck ant embraced me.
 Helene, you angel! How ever car thank you, 1ou--you did this fol my sake, Oh, it was wonderful oi lyou"
 I mistrust Alice's endearments. have reason to. But on this occasion I could clearly perceive there was some degree of genuineness about them.
 And then she added, breathlessly: But Tony-Tony said that he would sell the bracelet-" Irony is broken reed" l cut in "It's quite impossible to trust him The fact that he would pawn the watch, then lie to me, is proof posi- tive of his utter unreliability. Let this be lesson to you, Alice"
 She eyed me with her baby stare.
 "Where did you get hold of the pawn ticket. Helene? How did you find out that he had pawned my property?"
 This was a little awkward. I~had no wish to divulee to Alice the fact that Tony had followed me to my flat and practically forced an entry. Alice, in her more catty moments, might twist the tale into sem blance that would not do me credit. The less she knew of my affairs, the better. This excellent policy had followed throughout the years of my acquaintance with Alice and her kind.
 "I saw Tony in town" l casually remarked. "The pawn ticket slipped from his pocket and I picked it up, He didn't notice my discovery. But I thought it might interest you, Alice-"

 Alice gave small. affected scream

 MT Anstruther gave his wife { long, slow look, as though he were reading her true character for the first time There was q strange cynical light in his eyes. r- "The strange man'-as You cal hlm-can be removed to nursing home. And as Helene may be in duced to stay with you, you will not be alone"

 I'd had my share of both.

Again came an outpouring of ful, some thanks.
 And you-you'll stand by me, He lene, no matter what sort of prcvar. ications 1 have to make toto my husband? He's growing jealous, in his old age" She gave light laugh that did not ring true. "Matrimony is an awful bore, my dear. Dodge it as long as possible. It's a highly overrated ulxury."
 Alice's voice has peculiarly car- rying quality. 1t seemed unfortn- nate, then, that at this psychologists moment, Alice's husband should walk in.
 He must have heard her words. Indeed, to do otherwise would have been impossible.
 He didn't look at Alice. Instead, he focused his regard on me. l could see that he was upset.
 "We're glad to have you back, Helene" His tones were strained,
 Alice pouted.
 "I'm jealous of Helene Every body loves her." She tilted her small, piquant {countenance up to that of her husband, with what was meant to be a challenging, coquet- tish air.
 But it failed lamentably of its in teition. MT. Anstruther remained quite adamant.
 ; "The invalid goes on we'll. Helene" :" He ignored his fluffy little wife. "Poor chaps had an awful time. But l think he's round the corner now.'
 Alice seated herself in babyish attitude upon the hearthrug. She affects freight scenes. They are becoming to her. But always there's a theatricality about her poses.
 It was apparent now. 1t was ap- parent, also, that her husband was quite bored with Alice.
