Thou art gone, our pre- .ious darling,
Never more cans't thou return,
We shall meet you we shall greet you
On that resurre .tion morn.
Yes, we will walk among the living
Scarcely knowing where we are

We may laugh with those about us
But our heart is with our darling

We are publishing this article in ex-
PLANTATION Of the good work that The
Mountain Christian League is doing a,
Saint Helens, and to make our request
known to you. Will state that in the lat
ter part Of 1919, we bought lol at St.
Helens containing about two acres Of land
on which there was a good eleven room
dwelling, suitable for parsonage or tenn
porary orphans home. This property
cost us forty-seven hundred dollars, and
we have paid thrty-seven hundred Of
that amount. During the last year we
have succeeded in building a new church
house on this property 32x50 feet, with
good concrete basement. We have the
building up and covered; have it wealth
erboarded and about one coat Of paint
on it; have the floor laid, doors hung, bell
tower completed, and have a good bell
hing. Have wainscoting about COM
pleted on the inside. The windows are
nice art glass windows, and have been
paid for by individuals, except one win
dow which is being paid for by the
church at this place. Now, this house
and the basement must be ceiled, and
both will have to be seated. We have
to buy the ceiling and seats, and will
have to employ considerable labor before
the house is completed. We have good
furnace installed and paid for, and in this
house we have organized CHURCH
OF CHRIST. as near ike the Old Je-
rusalem Church as we could make it.
We have good Sunday School, mid
week prayer meeting and young peoples
society, all in good working order The
church has a membership of little over
one hundred. and we hope to see this
number doubled in the near future.
1t was by the help Of God that we
have been able to accomplish this much
of the good work, for which we feel
very thankful to Him. 1t has taken
great deal Of money to do this work, and
at this time we find that we are very
much in need Of about twelve hundred
dollars with which to meet some Of our
obligations, and to furnish the house, and
in the name Of our Lord Jesus Christ we
appeal to our Brethren and Sisters and
friends in Christ to help us finish the
work on this house, as the brotherhood
can not afford to let the work stop at this
point. The possibilities at this place for
good are too great; the demand for the
Old jerusalem Gospel at this place is too
strong; there are too many good people
at this place outside the Ark Of Safety
for US to let it stop where it is.
We want to get a Bible training school
started this year in the church house at
this place 10 train up young men to
preach the Old jerusalem Gospel to the
world Of mankind. So we ask you to
lend us a helping hand in this matter.
We need your assistance financially; we
need your assistance in paryer. Will you
not help usp
Give and it shall be given to you,
good measure, pressed down and shaken
together and running over, shall men give
in to your bosom. For with the same
measure ye mete withal it shall be meas
ured to you again" So send what you
can to l.. F. Martin, Field Worker, Old
Landing. Ky.

Davis Ignored Prisoners Rights

1t is constantly charged by men who
have been arrested that Sheriff Davis
ignores and disregards rights which
the law gives to every prisoner. He
not only has refused to permit them
to notify their friends In order to OBJ
tain bail and relieve the anxiety Of
their families. but he has denied them
their privilege Of communicating with
counsel.
The ase Of Arthur Scholes. Fred
Houston and Emil Bolander may be
cited as one example OF his unprece-
dented methods.
One night recently something hap
pened to the car which scholes and
Fred Houston were driving and block
ed the hoad so that when Emil Bo-
lander came along and was Obliged
to tsop also.

the agent ordered. Davis h~andcuffed
them, put them In his car and took
them to the county Jail where they
were held for two days without being
allowed either to notify their famil-
les or their attorneys.
Arthur Scholes, a young man of good
reputation who has grown up in Cody,
begged to be allowed to tell his wife
or have word sent to her of his where
abouts.
Davis refused him, and 1t was close
TO two days before he OF n of the
others were able to communicate with
their friends or obtain counsel and
their freedom.
In the meantime Davis endeavored
TO persuade Scholes to turn stool
pigeon and profit by betraying his
friends.

JOE LANG, SHOT BY
DAVIS, TELLS STORY
Sheriff TrembIes Gun Off And
Doesn't Know It--Asks His
Victim To Be Silent.

It was rumored during the Siam
pede that Sheriff Davis had shot a
man while arresting him for having
liquor in his possession.
There vas no accoun of the arrest
or the shooting in the Herald, whose
policy it is to give publicity to viola
tons of the prohibition law.
With Sheriff Davis seeking re-elec-
ton upon the strength of his record,
his splendid activities" and fear
less" enforcement of the prohibition
law, the facts in the case will be of
interest.
Joe Lang has a homestead on Mid
die Creek beyond M~eeteetse. He has
the best of regulations in hat town.
He served fourteen months overseas,
enlisting as a volunteer in Company
X. He is honest and industrious and
was never known to take a drink.
On the fifth of July he came to the
Stampede and in the evening took a
young woman from Meeteetse to the
dance at the pavilion.
This is his account of what occur
red:
1.-TWO young fellows from Meeteetse
had a bottle OF whiskey and they ask
ed me to hold it while they danced.
I do not know what kind it was as 1
did not taste it. l do not drink at all
myself.
81 held tie bottle for them and
when they returned I handed the bot
tie back. Just then Davis jumped out.
The boys saw him and ran. / stood
still. did not know either Davis or
the man with him at the time.
"One of them said: Get in the
car

it was queer hat strangers were or.

got out again and started to walk
away.
Davis yelled: Stop! or I'll knock
you DOWN.

he shot He was close to me at the
time. I got In the car again and he
took me to jail.

NEWTON TAXES GAN
.DATES--USES MONEY
FOR THEIR DEFEAT

L. L. Newton. Republican state
committeeman for Park county, and
therefore ex officio head of the Re-
publican organization for this county,
is also controlling owner of the Nor
thern Wyoming Herald, a paper which
poses as being the chief m%outh-piece
and official news organ of the organi-
cation.
In spite of the fact that in a pri-
mary campaign the organization is
supposed to remain neutral as be-
tween aspirants for party nomination,
the Herald has announced its open
support of certain favored candidates
and is using its columns to further
their campaigns, giving such candi-
dates the stamp of organization ap-
proyal and practically outlawing all
others.
Under Newton's management the
organization has seen fit to demand
frors all Republican primary candi-
dates a substantial preliminary cam
paign contribution and, it is under
stooe, a liberal porto n OF these
funds has been turned over to Newton
to pay for sending the Herald to some
700 voters Of the county.
In other words, Newton is collect
ing money from candidates and using
it to defeat some of those candidates
who contribute it.
1t is going pretty strong when a
man is asked to contribute to his own
defeat, and 1t is not surprising that
such candidates are loud in their de-
nunciation Of Newton and his meth
DDS. and are demanding that precinct
committeeman shall be elected who
will end these unfair methods and dc
away with Newton and his petty
graft

SPLENDID RECORD
APetty Tyrant, Installing Hatred

Actions Have No Precedent.

c. A Davis is a candidate for re-
election to the sheriff's office upon
the strength of his record.
Without wasting words, what, ex-
actly, is Sheriff Davis record?
He has made himself a joke and
his name a byword.
He has belittled an honorable office
and robbed 1T of its dignity.
He is not feared by the law-breaker
so much as despised and hated by
him.
He has put the spirit of outlawry
into men who are naturally good citi-
zens.
He has lost the respect of all per-
ons who have been in a position Co
observe the manner in which he has
enforced the dry law excepting the
fanatics and reformers of his own
type and calibre.
He acts without Judgment and is by
nature a bully int petit tyrant.
He has dom such things in his ca
gerness to make a recor.l for himself
as no man ever did before while &C.
cupying the office of sheriff of Park
county.

might die before his release, she got
out of her sick bed and came to Cody
to see her son.
Sheriff Davis refused her admis-

her son or to speak to him through
the grating in an officers presence.
He forced this sick and aged wonan

Judge Metz before hewould permit
