RICHARDS BROS.
 BUY FIRST LOT
 FUR BUSINESS
Well-Known Firm of Merchants Acquire Choice of First Busi- ness Lot to Be Disposed of in Spring Valley Townsite

Sale of the first business lot ill Spring Valley townsite, 5 miles north of Prescott, was reported yes terday by Art Davis.
 Richards Brothers, pioneer mcrch- ants of this city, were the purchasers. Lots previously reported sold in the townsite, it must be recalled, have all been ill the residential section.
 The consideration was not named. but Mir. Davis said that as soon as Homer Wood makes a map of the townsite, it will be the privilege of the Richards brothers to put a finger on the business lot they like bcst-in other words, they have the first choice. Later lots will be sold out right, 1t was said.
 While Art Davis was consummat- ing this deal, W. J. O'Bricn had re- ccived word from the Mayo Brothers. internationally famous surgeons of Rochester, Minn., that they had definitely withdrawn their offers for hospital sites in southern California. and asked that information to sup plement that contained in recent offer of O'Briens, be sent at once. O'Bricn offered sanatorium site and $5O,000 toward the construction of hospital if the Mayos would lo-- cate at Spring Valley.
 Messrs. J. T. and w. L. Richards did not indicate what they would do with the new business property they had bought, but it was assumed they would build a grocery store, that having been their business here for years.

 It Is just like I brought it from where I found it.
 The gentleman was promptly and firmly informed that he had no right to carry weapon wrapped up and in his pocket, and that he would have to come to see the judge. But, the offender wanting to make sure that he was to be properly thrown under the clock, protested and asked the officer to come into a nearby store, and let him display the weap- on That store happened to be the Journal-Miner office and Judge w. $. Case, with a smile, pulled out the parcel and unrolled the paper, and displayed a' weapon once very dan gerous, but long since out of the race as a firearm. It was an old pepper-boX style Six-shooter of the cap and ball type, which Mir Case had picked up about two weeks ago in Battle Flat It was evidently of the days of General Crook or earlier, and one of the oldest forms of pocket firearms. So, Mir. Case did not go to the county boarding house in the big granite building, but is on his way to the chamber of commerce to put his highly prizcd trophy on display. All old Indian fighters will enjoy squint at the concealed display furnished by MT. Case.

LEARNS OF ACCIDENT TO BROTHER THROUGH COLUMNS

The first news that his younger brother, Weston Donovan, had been injured in a collision between a fire truck and a street car in Los Ange- le; Sunday, came to R. E Donovan, clerk of the board of supervisors, when he picked up a Los Angeles paper oi Monday morning and read an account of the accident In the item, his brothers name was printed among those of the four men in- jured. A letter yesterday from his mother brought Donovan confirna- tion of the report.
 Weston Donovan for the past seven years has been in the employ of the Los Angeles fire department. He was stationed at the first house at Ninth and Santee street, in the busy wholesale section of the city. Sunday a call was turned in, and the engines started out.

RINDOM RESIGNS AS
CLERK DISTRICT COURT
Forms Partnership With G. L. Light
In Law Practice. Had Lane
Takes His Place

F. o. Rindom has resigned as clerk
Of the District Court to take effect
August 1, after which time he will en-.
gage in the practice of law with G. l.
Light, the firm title being Light ant
Rindom.
They will occupy the Light offices
in the Miller building, where they will
handle all legal practice coming theii
way.
H. w. Lane, who is candidate fol
the office vacated by Mr.. Rindom
has been appointed to take his place
and the appointement confirmed by
Judge Vance. Had is familiar fig
ure in the office having served in this
capacity number of years ago. He
has no opposition in the primary or
the November election so this means
he will continue in the office.
Mr.. Rindom came to Liberal four
teen years ago when this was small
town. He came to take the position
as the head of the Liberal schools,
and stayed with the job until two
years ago when he decided to quit. He
was elected clerk of the district court
and made good one. He has been
STUDYING law for q number of wears,
has been admitted to the bar and is
fully qualified to engage in the law
practice.
Mr.. Light has built up a fine prac-
tice and with Mr.. Rindom as a partner
should be even more successful.
The Democrat is pleased to see Mr..
Rindom step out and judging from his
past record he will succeet. He has
our best wishes.

STRIKE SITUATION is
SATISFACTORY HERE
Only One Slight Disturbance and That
was Satisfactorily and Quickly
Settled

The railroad strike is still in pro-
gress with nothing startling happen
ing. The past few days have beer
unusually quiet and officials are
highly pleased at the attitude of the
men who are on strike.
Most Of them are still working in
the harvest and several are taking
jobs running tractors and threshers.
They are proving good hands and the
farmers are taking about all who
apply.
The first near outbreak of the strike
occurred early in the week when two
strike-breakers blew in from Texas,
and a difference arose between the
Rock Island special officer and an
employee by the name of Loomis.
There are several versions of the
affair going the rounds, and the DEM
ocrat has investigated as thoroughly
as possible and the nearest facts we
can get are as follows:
1t appears that when the strike
breakers entered the employ of the
company, Mr.. Loomis, who is an old
and faithful employee, went and asked
them if they knew there was labor
trouble on here. According to our
information they informed him that
they did, and turned to leave when he
was seized by the officer, who handled
him roughly, shaking and choking him
at the same time infroming him that
he would be taken to jail. He was
taken to Judge Grinstead's office
where it was determined that action
should be taken. While this was in
progress his fellow workers notified
the foreman that unless he was back
on the job within an hour they would
be compelled to walk out. Just what
was made of the case, we
have not learned, but he was back at
his work in less than one hours time.
Loomis is 72 years old and has been
employed here since the new, round
house has been built. We are told
that he is a highly respected, likeable,
old gentleman, and that he had no
evil intent, merely desiring to know
whether Of not ths new Hisn were
aware of what they were doing. The
claim is made that he was subjected
To- rUdgtsr treatment ttaii' his age
and station warranted and feeling |
was high for time. However this
has subsided and every thing is go
ing smoothly.

LIBERAL CHAUTAUGCA
AUGUST rs TO SEPT 1
Program for 1922 Best Ever Offered
Liberal Chautauqua CON-,
Seven Big Days

The Chautauqua this year which
will start In Liberal on August 25th,
promises to be one of the best ever
held in Liberal. and from the pro-
gram 1t will be seen that the seven
days will be ones filled with enter
tainment, and educational information
1t will be noted that this year we
are favored with two plays, both con-
sisting of New York casts, and as
heretofore these plays come highly
recommended, and if they are plays
such as we have witnessed in the past
on the Chautauqua stage, they wen
deserve this high recommendation
Plays Of this class are difficult to OBJ
tain for town like Liberal, These
two ploys alone will no doubt be
worth the price of a season ticket,
which will be the same as last year,
$3.50 for adults and $1.25 for children
This includes admission to the IA
performances.
Chautauqua comes at an ideal time
this year, after harvest is over, and
before school starts, and should be
supported and enjoyed by every citi-
zen of Liberal and Seward County.

GAS SHOWING IN TEST
OF SEWARD COUNTY co,
North Well Causing a FURRY in Oil
Circles. Hole Full of Water
Prevents Test

With 1000 feet of water in the hole
the test of the Seward County Oil &
Gas is showing gas, but the volume is
a matter of conjecture.
The discovery was made Sun. about
o'clock. When a bailer was run the
gas coming to the surface of the wa
ter could be ignited and this burned
as the bubbles exploded while the
water was being run into the slush
pend. Several different people have
verified the story and It seems be-
yond possibility of doubt to be
a genuine showing.
On account Of the water in the hole
the extent Of the volume Of gas Is un-
known. There is several hundred feet
of open hole and the drillers will
start underreaming and set the 8-in
casing to shut off the water. When
this is done and the hole cleaned out
1t will be possible to learn what the
volume of the gas is.
It is the opinion of the drillers
that there is both oil and gas show
ing but they think they have just got
ten through the hard lime formation,
and scratched the sand. They are
between 2,4OO and $500 feet, the last
fifty feet being the lime formation.
Several men have spent the entire
night at the test expecting something
to show, and while there is not the
excitement which marked the former
furry, there is a keen interest in the
proceedings.
1t is hoped to get the 8-inch casing
set and start drilling in a few days.

The Rotary Club

Wright Stevenson was chairman
at Tuesdays luncheon. Paul Light
was asked to report on the Los An
geles meeting, and read from the Of
fetal record of some of the things
said and done there. The addresses
were inspiring, and revelation as
to the kind of men who make up
National and international Rotary.
They are more than leaders--they can
inspire in others the motives and the
actions for great things.
Jack Evans read list of Rotary
Clubs that had accomplished much
in their work for boys and girls.
They were large clubs with large
opportunities, but the smaller clubs
can fill their inches just as well.

LEGION AND METHoDISTS
WIN THE BALL GAMES
Railroaders Make Legion Work for
Their Hardest Game of Season.
Lions Easy for Methodists

Neither of the city league base ball
games were very fast this week but
the Railroaders gave the Legion a
good chance to loose game last Fri
day evening. The game was close
all the way through but the Legion
was successful in coming out with
the long end of 8 to 10 score. The
game seemed to be a comedy Of err
rors and it semed that the team MAX
ing the greatest number Of errors
would be the looser.
The Methodist team have been get
ting some new material or doing lots
of needed practicing since their last
game and gave everyone a surprise
Monday night in taking the Lions
into camp to the tune of to IA.
The Methodists got to Berwick for
good hits almost at will and the Lions
put up poor class Of fielding. The
Lions were unable to connect with
the offerings Of Frame for the Meth
odists, who was supported on all
parts of the lot with first class field
ing.
Interest in these city league games
is growing each week. Larger crowds
are attending and everyone is there
to boost their favorite team. There
are just four more free games this
month and then the committee in
tends to begin charging admission.
There are games each Monday and
Friday nights. Come out and see
the game between the Lions and
Christian Church Friday night and
the Fire Department and Railroad
teams next Monday night. Both of
these games promise to be good ones
