T0pekans Wonder Why Sheriff
Destroyed whisky Cache.
LARIMER OBEYED COURT ORDER
Judge Issued Destruction De-
cree-SeVeral Months Ago.
Better So To Government Than
Into the kaw River.

Hugh Larimer. sheriff obeyed a
blanket order issued by Judge Robert
D. Carver before he retired from the
bench when he destroyed SOC quarts
of liquor at the court house in Topeka
last Saturday.
Since that time inquiries have been
received from the government rela-
tive to the amount Of liquor in the
hands Of officers and intimating that
whatever the amount IL would be
taken into custody by the officers.
So. according to deductions by local
officials the liquor would have been
taken out Of Topeka whether by the
sewer or government route
Just before Judge Carver retired
from the bench to go TO Texas he is
sued a blanket order to the sheriff in
Structing him to destroy all liquor on
hand not needed as evidence in cases
pending in court.
Thirsty Friends. En-
Larimer delayed obeytng the order
because OF scrupIes against the de-
struction of so much coveted fluid but
finally when the pleas of thirsty
friends became so insistent he put on
a pair OF overalls last Saturday and
with the janiror as an aid rid himself
Of the 500 quarts of liquor.
Ever since the prohibition law went
been destroyed by sheriffs on blanket
orders. The action OF Larimer Satur-
day was no different than that OF
other peace officers at various times.
Criticism in Topeka.
There has been a wave of criticism
over the city following Larimer's ac-
ton. Whisky is recognized by medi-
cal authorities as invaluable in influ-
enza and pneumonia cases. 1t has
been suggested that the liquor be
| placed in the hands OF the city or state
health departments instead of the
sewer
/ The argument that If the liquor did
not go into the sewer it would have
/ gone out OF the city is not accepted as
a logical excuse by many Topeka ply
sicians- II the whisky has any medi-
! cal value it would be better in the
hands of the government than floating
/ in the Kaw river.
I OF course it is recognized that law Is
/ law and the sheriff undoubtedly was
legally supported in his action but the
city's criticism is based on the practica
value OF whisky-not the use to which
it might have been put as beverage

That Is, One Can Do So at
Primaries.
DECIDE THE MOOT QUESTION
Many Girls, Is Present Them
selves to Become Voters.
Registration VIII Be Light This
Year, Present Outlook.

Anyone who will be OF voting age
on election day is entitled to vote at
the primary in August. However,
they must register before the books
close July &c.
This was the decision reached after
much arguments concerning the rights
of youthful voters. For time it was
doubtful whether a man who would
become 81 years old between the pri-
mary and election days could register
before the primary. Accoriin@ to-
Kansas election laws. says City Clerk
Covell, the man may register. and
also vote at the primary. altho he may
not be of age at that time.
Girls Is Want to Vote.
A surprising number Of women un-
der Il years old are presenting them
selves for registration under the sup-
old may vote. As a matter of fact.
aItho a woman is legally OF age when
she becomes Is. she cannot vote until
she is 81.
It is remarkable to note that at
least SO per cent OF the citizens who
have so far registered in Topeka ars
foreign BORN II appears they are
taking more interest in the welfars
of the country than native born
Americans.
Registration To BE Light.
Up until today there were about
5000 persons registered. half OF them
women From present indications IL
seems that registration will not be 50
heavy this year az usual, unless there
is a great awakening in the next few
weeks
The new law requires that everyone
who wishes to vote this year must
register. whether they have ever voted
/ before or not. The law also has been
changed. making it necessary for Civil
war veterans to become citizens be-
fore voting Formerly n war veteran

when the French evacuated they
had a march of sixty miles to make to
the railroad and 3,000 Armenians
started with them. A blizzard hit
them the second day on the road-it
was Friday, the 13th-and I, 1000 Of the
poor souls persisted on the way. It
was a CHASTITY thing from first to last
and we here are mighty lucky. for
Aintab was scheduled to be besieged

here but no general uprising. Sew
eral Armenians and a few Turks have
been killed and we all carry guns with
US when we go out Two French SOL
diers while promenading one Sunday
afternoon on horseback near the city
were shot by brigands- One French
man was killed and the other is still
in the hospital.
The French have suffered all sorts
OF indignities from the Turks but
didn't want to strike until it became
absolutely necessary or till they could
dominate the situation without undue
losses And so the situation has
dragged on with us exiles in a savage
country.
Last Saturday. March 81, we got
rumors that a big French convoy or
flying column was on its way from
there was lots Of excitement Sunday
morning some of the French troops
from here went out with cannon and
full equipment to meet the convoy.
Then, for the first time, real war was
on US. We could hear the rumble of
cannon, and see the bursting shells as
the two bodies of French troops fought
off an attack by the Turks. In the
afternoon after the battle we spied the
incoming French troops down the
road. and you would have to be in a
similar position to reaIizs how we felt.
We went down to greet them. and as
they streamed in $500 strong. it was
hard to keep the tears OF joy back L
was called away from the parade to do
hospital duty, as all the wounded men
were taken to our hospital. and it has
