Hear this orator philosopher on Fol
19 lies of Fogyism at
CHAUTAUQUA
At the Court House
It seems that our dear little county
clerk is at variance with the editor
of the Indianola Reporter and when
Charley gets into trouble he always
tries to divide laurels with the county
attorney This time he divides it up
in this manner
Sidney Dodge filed a complaint
against a farmers wife of Drift
wood precinct with the clerk of
the district court charging her
with insanity The insanity
board could not find a trace of
insanity in the woman and dis
charged her The costs in the
case is 3350 and the tax pay
ers of this county will have it to
pay
Now Charley you poor little inno
cent and ignorant creature I feel sor
ry for you Did you not know that
the truth half told was ofttimes the
worst kind of a lie No the facts
are this The farmers wife you al
lude to came to my office one even
ing and wanted to prosecute her hus
band for cruelty Upon inquiry she
said she had been in the insane hos
pital about a year and nine months
and was then out on parole I asked
her if she had any place to stay that
night and she said she could stay
with one of her old neighbors who
lived here in town She came back
in the morning and still wanted to
prosecute her husband I left her in
the office and went and interviewed
the lady where she stayed all night
The lady corroborated her statement
in morning suit who was accompanied as to insanity and thought she was
by two fashionable women Its
church time now
The whole car was amused by this
time but the old lady still poured out
parting admonitions All out re
peated the conductor and the man
in the hat grumbled again
Why cant people do this sort of
thing before they start to church
he demanded whereat Representative
Norris bridled up
Young man he said addressing
the farmer you just take all the
time you want saying good by to your
mother You dont know when you
will say it for the last time
The young mans embarrassment
was visibly increased
And if any of these people are so
worried about their sins went on
Mr Norris that they must hurry to
church why they might get down on
their knees right here and pray
After this little sermon there was
no further exhibition of amusement
over the little domestic incident
The young man took his time too
The Cambridge Clarion is authority
for the statement that State Senator
J C Gammill will be a candidate at
the primary in August for re election

sions with Comrade Gammill for the

not altogether right yet and not safe
I thought the best way out of the
matter was to file a complaint of in
sanity bring in the witnesses and try
both cases at once and find out if
she was insane and subject to be sen
back to the hospital or if she had
been ill treated as she alleged
which I did The board found she
was not a fit subject for the insane
hospital and I could not find any evi
dence that would convict her husband
of cruelty or assault and battery
The cost in the case was 3350
which was less than half it would
cost to try the case she wanted to
file a complaint in
Now Charley you poor little much
abused creature if you will try and
learn to attend to your own business
you may possibly come out yet and
grow to be quite a man I think there
is lots of room I have seen young
fellows who did not appear to know
much more than you do who with
quite an effort on their part grew
up and made quite men of them
selves
With respect your friend
