REPORT OF MORTON SISTERS

On October 1th these pilgrims be-
gan revival in this city in the
Church Of God building. After run
ming few nights in this building,
we saw it wocld not hold the people,
so a tent was secured for us and was
kept thruout the entire revival. There
were something like 80 souls pardon
ed, others sanctified. On Sunday,
October %, we partook of the Bread
and Wine. Something like 200 par
took, of all denominations. How hap
DIV we were! After this was over we
followed the Lord in the example OF
foot-washing, the ladies in the church
and the men in the tent. About 80 or
so took this good lesson. Several fol-
lowed the Lord in Christian baptism
the last Sunday and there will be an
other baptising this coming Sunday
the Lord being willing.
We surely appreciated the coop
Grafton of the dear friends in this
town and those from distance.
There were people who came eighty
miles to this meeting. Many came
40 and so miles. "By their fruits ye
shall know them" Everybody be-
gan to plan now for a great camp
meeting here next year. We expect
to have tent that will hold 1000.
I am glad the people of Liberal are
beginning to find out that we are
only pilgrims here working for the
Master. Praise God. ! am sure
the girls did work here that will
never be undone.
Do not forget, we love everybody.
VOC are welcome to our services.

COL. AMIDON
SPOKE HERE
MONDAY MITE
HAD A GOOD AUDIENCE AND
RECEIVED HEARTY APPLAUSE
DURING HIS TALK.

Coly. Sam Amidon, Democratic
National Committeeman from Kan
sas, addressed nice audience at the
Court House in Liberal last Monday
night. Mr.. Amidon arrived on No. l,
went to Hugoton for a meeting. re-
turning for the speech here in the
evening.
His talk was in the interest of JON
athan Davis for governor and A. S.
Allphin, candidate for congress, and
he discussed the record of their oppo-
nents from business standpoint.
His talk was entirely free from
abuse of the Republican party and
his appeal, to common sense and judy
ment.
Only once did he severely score
the opposition and that was when he
mentioned the failure of the national
administration to pass soldiers bo-
nus bill. ills remarks in this con-
nection drew the most prolonged ap-
plause of the evening
He launched into an attack upon
the Industrial court and gave the fig
ures as to its cost-$130,50 per
year, and told his hearers that if they
thought the cburt was worth that
much to vote for the men who sup
ported it.
He told of Mr.. Davis being real
farmer, living upon his farm and act
ually doing farm work, and asked II
in the Judgment of the people he was
not better fitted to govern the state
and work for the interests of the
farmers than one not engaged IN Tie
farming occupation.
Mr.. Amidon quoted largely from
statements made by Mr.. Stubs and
Henry Allen in previous campaigns.
He read extracts from editorials In
Mr.. Aliens paper in which Mr.. Allen
gave what he termed inside dope on
the Republican situation. He refer
red to Mr.. Morgan's record as state
printer and quoted from a statement
of Mr.. Stubs that Morgan was fifty
thousand dollars year better off for
having been state printer.
He made an earnest appeal for
votes for A. S. Allphin, candidate for
congress. He then referred to the
late tariff bill and asked how tar
iff on wheat could help the farmers
of Kansas when one-third of the
wheat of the United States was ex-
ported and the price fixed by the ex-
port markets. He said that the bill
would icrease the cost of livig mil
lions of dollars a year and return the
farmers nothing.
Mr.. Amidon is one Of the promi-
net figures in Democratic politincs IN
the nation. He led the McAdoo
forces in the last Democratic nation
nal convention and held the vote for
his man for AZ consecutive votes. He
is of the opinion that Mr.. McAdoo
will be prevailed upon to accept the
nomination for the 1924 race, and
will stand a strong chance of being
the next president.
Mr.. Amidon said this was his first
visit to Liberal and that while he had
, heard great deal about the town he
was surprised to find such splendid
little city way out here. He charac-
terized the town as wonderful and
expressed the hope that he might
again visit the city.

the entire affair. The remarks Of
Liberal rooters which were at first
reported as having been flung at
the Dodge team whenever 'timd-
OUT was requested, presumably be-
cause of minor injuries, were, it de-
veloped, aimed for the most part at
Mr.. Wood, Dodge mentor, who for
ferly coached at Liberal. The gem
tie Gliding he received, says Coach
Wood, was not in the least offensive
and was all good-natured and savored
not in the least of SANDER.
The player or players who, fresh
from the scene of the disaster, mis-
construed thoroughly administered
defeat to be stolen fruit were badly
in error. The Globe, on the other
hand, anxious to give the public the
news it craved regarding the Liberal
calamity, erred by not awaiting fur
ther,. more complete and authentic
returns.
Meanwhile the Dodge high team,
the coach and all loyal fans are
gracefully swallowing the pill OF
defeat served by old Doc Reverse
on the Liberal gridiron last Friday
and are looking forward to the clash
with Pratt high school on the Pratt
field next Friday. The Pratt clash
should be an even harder game
for the locals than was the game
with Liberal, but the team, aching
from defeat, is expected to avenge
themselves in their battle with the
Near Eastern warriors.

RED CROSS WORK.

This year the scope of the Red
Cross work in Seward county is
broadened, and it is imperative that
the Red Cross membership be increas-
ed, both in the number of members
and in the amounts of the member
ships.
The budget committee of the Lo-
cal Chapter has estimated that it will
take at least $4,000 to maintain the
Public Health service, and to carry
on the Home Service as heretofore,
for the coming year. This amount is
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1922-11-02

In order to reac hthis goal, it is es-
timated that there must be in the
county, the following memberships:
rs memberships of $25 each.
so memberships of $40 each.
100 memberships of $500 each.
100 memberships of $3.50 each,
500 memberships of $3.50 each.
For every individual member Doc
is sent to National Headquarters to
help maintain the National organi-
cation. This is very important. All
of the balance stays in the local treas
ury and is used right at home.
The memberships Of $25, $40 and
SIS may be paid in quarterly or semi
annual installments, making it much
easier for those classes of member
ship, than if all the money is paid at
the time of the roll call.

AN ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION

A representative of the Liberal
Ministerial Association asks The
Democrat to correct an erroneous inn
preston which is said to exist in
some circles regarding the evangel-
istic meetings to start Sunday.
The report has gained circulation
that Rev. Miller is coming to Liberal
under guarantee of certain sum
of money. This is not correct. Rev.
Miller comes with the understanding
that a free will offering will be taken
for himself the last day of the meet
ing and that is all the finance he will
receive, and the ministers of the Lib
eral churches desire that the public
be correctly informed in this regard.

LET'S GO OVER THE TOP

Vote Eyes" on Nov. 7th, 1922, on
"An act relating to Compensation for
Veterans of the World War"
A Eyes" vote means:
Favor of paying $1.00 per day Ito
every Kansas soldier, boy or girl, in
service during the World War. This
means every boy or girl who was a
resident of Kansas at the time they
enlisted, whether they enlisted in
Kansas or somewhere else.
You are willing to pay the price
from 25c to 39c on every 100000
worth of property you own for 20
years. There are in Kansas $4,000
former service boys and girls. To
pay them will take % million dollars.
Kansas has no debts. If this ques-
ton carries, over 100000 will be
paid to the girls and boys in Seward
county.
1t will bring $25, 100000 of new
MONEY from the eastern markets for
circulation here.
1t means an equalization of pay
to our underpaid soldiers of the world
war and that the boys and girls should
be paid for the time they lost for you
and me.
Don't neglect the separate ballot
It must have a majority of all votes
cast at the general election in order
to carry instead of majority OF
those for and against it..

stories about 1t. but the most reliable (and
the one that the court accepted as true)
has 1t that Dominack and his father-tn law
were engaged In ploughing In the latter
field.
Dominack was a trifie peevish that day.
He showed it in his childish abuse of the
old cayuse that had been teamed up with
a mule to the pillow. Came particularly
irritating incident and Dominack assailed
the unfortunate beast with club. Father
in-law objected. not so much from hui
manitarian motives as because the nag
was a serviceable old brute and good for
more work.
Whereupon Dominack brought the club
down upon the old mans head with ruin
Gus force. One blow did It, The old man
died and Dominack, not at all concerned,
was dragged into court. The Crowns
prosecutors told the jury all about 1t and
the jury scowled at the nonchalent Domi-
mack. who couldn't somehow get interested.
They decided to jail him for six years.
1t does seem minor punishment for MUIR
der. but the killing of Dominacks father
in-law did not strike the court as the most
terrible offense that might be imagined.
At any rate Dominack was thrown into
Jail, where he proceeded to sleep and eat
and take life serenely. 1t made little diff
ference to our hero.
A few weeks later the Shuswaps were
invited to play a strong baseball team
from somewhere or other down the prov
ince.
1--WE have no pitcher. We would be terri
bly, beaten by this team unless Dominack
was with us to Pitch
They were quite right about it. The
game was played and the visitors won.
1t was fearful shock to local pride and
it just about wrecked the morale of the
Shuswaps. The Shuswaps always looked
mean on the diamond but on this occa-
sion they played as badly as they looked
They never wore uniforms anyway Half
the fun in going up to see them play of a
Sunday afternoon was to see Dominack in
the box with brown derby on the back
of his head. The first baseman wore a
ragged jersey. a railroad brakeman's cap
and a pair of denim overalls He never
wore shoes.
Charlie the shortstop scorned shoes also.
The diamond was a bit lopsided. The
bases We're tree stumps hacked off close to
the ground. 1t was almost twice as long
from first to second as 1t was from home
to first. The distance from second to third
was twenty feet more than II should have
been. You see they had to have the bases
where the stumps were.
Dominack had not been in jail very long
and the Shuswaps hadn't sustained many
humiliating defeats before it was decided
that 1t would be quite within the law were
Dominack to be fetched out of his cell on
Sunday afternoons and permitted to pitch
for the home team. After the game of
course, he'd be locked up again.
SO they'd march Dominack to the dia-

began winning again Great was the re-
joicing among his brethren His first ap-
pearance after going to jail was something
of plot. He knocked six or seven home
runs. they say. and pitched the opposition
to death. So wild did the Shuswaps be-
come that the jail attendants were some
what apprehensive lest there be a battle
when they tried to take Dominack back
to his cell
But there was no trouble at all. Domi-
mack went Sinking back to prison with
his brown derby hat on the back of his
head and his dirty overalls trailing at his
heels. There was nothing Of the noble
redskin about Dominack.
In time the authorities who have to do
with paroling prisoners decided that it
might be just as well If Dominack were
released. He was fetched into court and
told that he could go back to his cabin
on the reservation and stay there as long
as he behaved himself
"All right" grunted Dominack
But the minute you do anything wrong,
back you CO." they warned him.
SO Dominack shuffled back to his cabin
and made a rather complete job of behav-
ing until a few weeks ago when a team
came up to the reservation for the usual
Sunday game.
1t develops now that this team had come
up to win. 1t was composed of profes-
SIGNALS and it is said that its pitcher and
catcher had won renown in the Pacific
Coast league. Much money was wagered
on the result of the game and Dominack.

fifth inning. neither side having scored,
the contest had become pretty bitter. Here
and there arguments broke out and the
Lake Windermere rooters began to realize
that they were witnessing the maSings of
a nice free-for-all battle. While the Shus-
waps were at bat Dominack was heard ad-
dressing his fellow warriors:

Dominack had laboriously spelled out
