From the White House comes the announcement that leader
ship on the League of Nation issue has become imperative, and
that Governor Coxs efforts require guidance.
Now that Wilson has entered the League of Nations fight, it is
perfectly proper for the Republicans to show the searchlight on
the Presidents numerous sayings.
t is confessed by the Democrats that while Governor Cox is
candidate yet President Wilson is the man behind the scenes con-
trolling the action of the candidate for president.
Warren G. Harding will be fifty five years of age on Election
day. He old enough to know and young enough to do. His rival
has not yet reached even the years of discretion.
The Democrats seem to depend upon quarrels and divisions in
the Republican camp than upon their own ability to win the
confidence of the voters. Fortunately there are no quarrels or
divisions.
Governor Cox says he is not committed to Hitchcock reserva-
tons. To what is he committed? He does not say. The only
inference reservation.
President wilson will enter the fight and help win the League
of Nations great and solemn referendum" $ the announcement
read by Governor Cox. Deliver me from my friends cried
the Governor in despair.

,. Park, the Republican candidate for County Treasurer,
needs no introduction to the voters of Carbon County. S. Park
is a resident of Encampment but for the past ten years has been
living in Rawlins. Ten years ago Mr.. Park was first elected as
treasurer of Carbon County, being elected by but a very few ma
jority. Two years later, after the voters of the county had had an
opportunity to observe his work as County Treasurer and to
thoroughly appreciate his ability, he was reelected by a hand
some majority. After serving four years as County Treasurer
Mr.. Park was persuaded by the next County Treasurer. Mr.. E. M.
Tierney, to remain as deputy county treasurer. Mr.. Park served
four years in this capacity, again being elected as county treasurer
two years ago.
This year Mr.. Park was persuaded to again become a can
didate for the office although it was his personal desire to re-
tire to private life for the remaining years of his life.
That Mr.. Parks ability and strength is thoroughly recog-
nized is attested to by the fact that the Democratic party endorsed
him bv not placing a candidate in the field in opposition to him.
No higher praise could be given any man than a remark made
recently by the state examiner when he said: Carbon County
people will never be able to realize how fortunate they are in
having a man of the ability of S. Park as County Treasurer. Nc
other county in the state is so fortunate"

BUTLER-RIcH HILL TELE-
- PHONE SYSTEM SOLD
A. ]. Erhart, Former Bates County
Farmer, Buys Telephone Lines.

A. ]. Erhart, for many years a
prominent farmer and stockman OF
this county on Tuesday purchased
from F. NJ. Campbell the Butler-Rich
Hill and Spruce telephone systems
and will assume possession of his
telephone properties on about the
first of June,
The negotiations for the sale were
conducted by Jesse f. Smith, vice
president of the Missouri State Bank,
who represented both parties to the
transaction, and the physical valua-
ton OF the system was based on pre-
war inventories.
Mr.. Erhart expects to maintain
personal management of the entire
System with Headquarters in Butler,
~ son, Albert Erhart, will locate at
Rich Hill and will be in charge OF
the plant at that place.
Mr.. Erhart contemplates making
extensive improvements in the equip
ment of the system and informed the
writer while negotiations for the
purchase of the plant were under way
that should he become the owner of
the system, his chief concern at all
times would be the maintenance Of
efficient satisfactory service with
himself at all times in touch with the
conduct of the plant in its relations
with the public,
ANDY" Erhart is an old Bates coun-
ty boy and is we'll known throughout
the county as business man of ex-
traordinary ability and good judy
ment. The greater part of his lie
has been devoted to farming and
stock raising and for several years he
ranked among the foremost of the
breeders of big type Poland China
hogs in this section of the country.
Several years ago he sold his large
stock. farm near Adrian and moved to
Western Kansas, where he continued
farming and hog raising until short
time ago. A part of the considera-
ton in the sale of the plant are two
sections of land in .Pawnee and
tHodgman counties, Kansas.
| The Butler-Rich Hill Telephone
exchange was established many years
ago by Henry Reinheimer, who con-
Quoted the plant up to the time OF
his death, when the management OF
the system was assumed by his widow
who about four years ago sold it to
i. NJ. Campbell.

To Have Band Concerts This
Summer.

For some time it has looked as
though Butler was going to be COM
PEELED to do without band concerts
this summer, but at the last meeting
of the Commercial Club the matter
was tai ken up and the club voted to
hire the band for the usual concerts
whic'' are to be commenced FRIDAY
evening, May IL.
At the same meeting the PROPOSE
ton of the Allen shoe company to
establish factory in Butler was
turned down by a unanimous vote.
The company just about wanted the
town to furnish money to build the
factory, furnish a lot, free water and
few other things and then perhaps
they would condescend to operate
the plant for their own profit.
