The Great Bend Commercial Club
have invited the Directors and officers
of Ellis county to come down there as
their guests. They are ready to push
itthrough with jump and give these
fellows a chance to build and bring
in their million dollars, and as quick
as the I. S. C. C. give the permission
the Board will drive over there for
two day trip. Then if Hays is still
ON A SPUR (can't get across the Re
servation), the Office viii be located
at Great Bend, and everything done
from there. Is that what Hays bust
ness men want?
If we were the banks of Hays we
would be jumping every minute to
make the road a GO and bring that
money here to deposit. If on spur
it will go to the banks along the route
and Hays banks get very little to
handle.
If we were the Normal School
crowd we would jump every minute
TO get that road built INTO Hays,
not spur, for it gives them a con-
nection with southwest Kansas. Give
the promoters a chance.
If we were a Chamber of Com
merce and wanted to build up Hays,
we would have every member circu=
lating the bond petitions and get suf-
ficient signers to~show the Promoters,
the State Educational Board, the 1.
SC. c., that Hays wants the road
direct from Great Bend and The
South-not a spur I'd call a public
meeting, have the railroad men come
and show their maps and papers and
rush it through in "a hours. That's
PUSH.
The Charter has not been filed. The
! Directors contract says it will be filed
within 48 hours after permission is
granted by the I. S. C. C. Shall that
charter say Office at Great Bend,
Hays on a spur, or Great Bend TO
Hays? While the petitions are all
printed for every township, and some
are already in circulation, where the
/ people want to show they want it bad,
| there will be none circulated IN
HAYS until we can have an assur-
ance that we can cross the Reserva-
ton when we have built in Hays.
If the Hays people are not inter
ested the Promoters are not as there
is more wheat to ship in Catherine
and Buckeye, and it would cost them
to build the four miles from Munjor
to Hays and Hays facilities, $50, 900.
So it is up to Hays, and it viii have
tBbe acted on within a few days, be-
fore word comes from Washington
The press dispatchs Saturday said
Dodge City had been made a first
class post Office caused by its receipts
for business done. Since this rail-
road matter has been going on they
have spent lots of postage money, and
will for fifty years. Shall this bust
ness go to help the Great Bend Office
or stay in the Hays Office to build it
up to first class office.
Mr.. Tholen, president of the Com
| mercial Club, had he remained E
County Commissioner, would now be
a Director in this railroad company.
He ought to wake up his Club to the
Importance of trying to bring a rail
road to Hays.
It won't be any expense to anyone
to give these Southerners a Chance.
Shall we show the Governor and
State Board it is imperative to Hays
! that the permission be assured be-
fore it is too late.

Any unusual result in surgery is

surgery is only mechanical. The real

May Exhume Body
OF StOver's First wife

Ellsworth, Me. June 24.-County
attorney William E. Whiting is
awaiting report from DIR. F. n.
Whittier of Bowdoin College on the
possibility of exhuming the body of
Isaac L. Stover's first wife to exam
inc it for traces of strychnine pois-
oning. The first Mrs. Slower has been
in her grave six years and local ply
sicans doubt whether such anexam-
ination could be conducted at this
time.
Mr.. Whiting has had communica-
tions from Massachusetts physicians
in regard to the matter, and one we'll
known medical examiner of that state
has assured him that the elimination
could be undertaken. He refuses to
act, however, until he has heard from
DR.. Whittier. whose opinion in such
matters he respects very much.
The attorney feels sure that he now
has enough evidence to get Slower in
dicted by the grand jury in October on
a murder count. He says that he only
produced enough evidence at the hear
ing TO hold the defendant.

BETTING ON BIG
SCRAP is LIGHT

New York June 24--Waeering on
the Dempsey Carpenter bout for the
worlds heavyweight championship at
Jersey City, July >. is extremely light
despite interest on two continents
that promises to eclipse that evil
denced in any previous title battle.
Both men have numerous admirers
who, as yet, have failed to back their
opinions with much money. Stimu-
lated wagering is expected on the
eve Of the bout with a probable in
flow of currency from France.
According to figures at which some
money has been Wagercd in Wall
Street, Jack Dempsey seems likely to
40 into the ring on odds on fayorite
at to /. Although in past bouts for
the title the champion, almost inva-
riably has been the favorite not since
the Sullivan Corbett battle has the
title holder been so strongly favored
in bout Of major worth. Sullivan
was "A 4 to l choice over Gentleman
Jim" Willard was q to / favorite
over Jack Dempsey when the chal-
lenger won at Toledo. Jim Jeffrics
entered the ring favored at = 1-2 to
to beat Jack Johnson at Reno. John

|DeValera Arrested
But Freed When His
Identity Is Known

Dublin, June 24.-Eamonn De VAL
era, the Irish republican leader, was
arrested Wednesday night near this
city and later released it was defin-
itely established today There had
been earlier denials from the Sim
Fein authorities that he had been
apprehended.
1t appears certain that De Valera
was arrested either in error or
through over-zeal on the part of the
officials concerned.
The arrest, it is understood, took
place at Black Rock, county Dublin.
The prisoner was detained for the
night and his identity being learned,
he was released yesterday afternoon.
1t was supposed at first that a man
resembling him had been arrested
and on this gorund the Sim Fem au-
thorities denied the reports.
AS a matter of fact it is declared
here there is no intention on the part
of the authorities in Ireland to arrest
De Valera. This statement would
appear to be borne out by the fact
of his being released when his iden-
tity was tablished

nothing extraordinary, and his right
is not the best.
Il never have seen Dempsey box

even If he is a good second rater, he
should beat Carpe ntier.'
Johnson. weighing 80 pounds and

Auto Association
Takes No Stand
On Referendum

Portland, June, 24-The decision Of
the board of directors Of the Maine
Automobile Association, not TO take
any stand Their for or against the
referendum on the disposal of bond
money for State highways, meets
general approval.
This is moot question and the
members of the board Of directors
and vice presidents are by no means
Of common minds. Some of those who
do not intend TO vote for the refer.
cndum would like to do so had ii been
framed differently. In other words,
they would like to have a portion sf
nJnd money for good roads made
available for State aid highways hut
they do not believe that the sum
should be fixed and made obligatory.
1t was said at the meeting at Po-
land Spring this week at which the
attendance was very large. that with
out doubt the amendment would re-
ceive passage at the hands of the
voters. No one arose to deny this
statement
Finally a vote was passed that II
was the sense of this meeting that
the Maine Automobile Association
would take no stand either for or
against the pasa sse of this amend
ment in the coming referendum. 9th.
or than to place before the public the
facts relative TO the situation and the
results that might follow it's adop-
ton or its non-adoption by the peop'..
Incidental to this discussion, which
lasted three or four hours, a report
was made by Hon. John c. Scates Of
York county in which Mr. Scates was
perhaps as well informed on matters
of the highway as any other man in
Maine, put into concist form the facts
whiih are involved i'll the proposed
referendum.
In brief, this referendum proposes
to appropriate $500. 600 for the bond
issue money exclusively to State-sa
roads. This referendum will. if pass.
ed and enacted, in response to the
change of the constitution which is in.
rJlred. automatically repeal some Of
the present Legislation for State roads
and naturally require considerable
amount of more clearly defined and
concise legislation which will be al
fected by this repeal
Most of the discussion centered
around the actual condition Of the r.
nances. Harvey Granville of Kezar
Falls, a member of the Senate. was
very fully informed upon the figures
as he understood them. but in spite Of
1t all there was a good deal Of doubt
as To the amount of money that would
be available in January, 1923 in two
and half million dollars were divert
ed from the State highway fund 10
the State aid. There was a god dea
of cloudiness also about the exact
status of the federal aid and ii was
thought that it would be well 10 have
Mr.. Sargent and the state auditor al:
tend one of these meetings and ASST
