There oro some peoplo in this city
who are continually and everlastingly
fasinirchliig the characters of other
people, for what reason we are unable
fathom, unless it is because their
foul mouths hate nothing else to do
If such peoplo I'onnot find bettor em
ployment, then they should hunt some
ther avenue to vomit their tilth upon
j.-tther than to spew it upon innocent
women Men can stand such things,
but when women are assailed, what
chance is there for them, but to melt
j it of sight or go down to perdition?
We have recently heard of a case or
two of this kind, which should meet
-vith a merited rebuke from the peoplo
t large who admire truth and correct
living. Com-Ad.
The above article is a timely one.
It is a fact that no strange woman can
ttomo to this town without somo foul
ziouthed man or woman starting vi!o
itorios about the past of the now ar
rival, and this is particularly true if
the woman happens to be a single
woman dependent upon her own
resources.
A case in point, and the one which
ru presutno is referred to in the above
article, is that of Mrs. Howard and
Miss Gray, who recently came hero
from Kansas City. Mrs. Howard, who
is a widow, came hero and rented tho
kvwer rooms of tho Morauvillo block
jiLh.tUo object of taking boarders and
ftideavoring to make a living for her
self. When sho had become comfort
ably settled in her new quarters sho
sent for her friend, Miss Gray, who is
i i oxDoriouced dressmaker, and tho
iwo ladies oponod dressmaking parlors
in their rooms. Both ladies brought
letters of recommendation from some
nf tho best knowu and most respect
ble peoplo of Kansas City, ono from
the olllcers of a church in Kansas
City. Tho ladies secured a few lady
Jay boarders and wero just beginning
lo earn a comfortable living when
juniors derogatory to their character
begau to bo heard Tracing these
rumors to their source, they wore
found to emanate from au irresponsi
ble person claiming to have seen ouoof
Ihe ladies at somo time iu tho dim
past in a littlo Nebraska town, uuder
wfavorable circumstances. Investi
gation by interested parties showod
Uiat tho lady was never iu the town
teferrod to.
Attached to this article will be found
jne of the numerous lottors of reeom
xnudatiou brought by the ladies,
which should couviuco any fair mind
vl person of tho good character of tho
Viearor Since locating hero tho ladies
,vliave conducted themselves iu a man
ner to earn the esteem and respect of
veryouo who has become acquainted
Tith them, and no punishment could
toe too sovere for tho man or woman
who would attempt to rob them of
their good name and au opportunity
to earn au honest living.
We understand that criminal pro
reeding will soon bo begun against
he person who started the story, aud
if such is the case tho truth iu tho
vhole matter will be given to tho
imbliu
There is a well dellucd suspicion in
the minds of some of our citizens that
the attempt to blacken tho reputation
flf these ladies is part of a plan to
iu jure another person who hits certain
ly had trouble enough.
Following is tho lottor referred to
above, which is signed by tho prosl
iout and manager of tho "German
Americun StafF of Physicians and Sur-
eons institute "
Kansas City, Mo., April 11, 1905.
To Whom Presented:- I have boen
acquainted with tho bearer hereof,
Mis. Mattie B Howard, for many yojrs

J.T H. CLAIM.
Same Here.
C. J. Bowlby in his long
career has observed the
Colonel
newspaper
policy of letting the subscribers settle
for their paper at their convenience
Under the law passed last winter to
spito tho newspaper men for having
dared to criticise tho unseemly con
duct of some of the legislators a delln
quent subscription after July one may
be paid or not at tho option of tho
subscriber. This menanco to pros
perity has forced Mr. Bowlby to call
upon his pntrons to square up before
July 1st, and it hurts him to be driven
to this brutal extremity. What ex
asperating penalties do follow the
sending of small men to tho legisla
ture. llixby in the State Journal.
We can appreciate tho "fix" in
which Colonel Bowlby finds himself.
When he tries to collect his back sub
scription accounts he will bo confront
ed by tho usual plea of dishonest sub
scribers, such as: "1 never subscribed,"
"I ordered the paper stopped years
ago," "I never read a lino in the
paper," and such other evasion?. It
was only last week that this ofllce had
an experience of this kind with a man
who owed $8 on subscription. Ho de
clared that ho had never subscribed;
that ho "stopped tho paper when
Hosmcr sold out," and that he would
take his solemn oath that ho had
never read a column in tho paper
When tho present management of
Tin: Chief bought tho paper from
Will McMillan it also bought all out
standing subscription accounts. Tho
man mentioned above was on the list
and, as ho is wealthy aud amply able
to pay, tho paper was continued to his
address. He finally refused tho paper
at tho postoitlco, und iu answer to a
couple of duns mailed to him ho came
nto tho ofllce und made tho plea
stated above. Ho is a man who has
had column after column of free ad
vertising in the newspapers of the

paltry sum of a dollar a year to en
able his family to keep up with tho
course of events transpiring in and
around his homo town.
Wo havo other subscribers who are
in tho same category as tho above, but
wo believe the majority of our sub
scribers to be honest men who will
sometime pay what they owo. We
would like io hear from some of them
in a substantial manner. If they do

Frank-Barker's Sanity.
Reports have begun to go out from
tho pouitentiary that Frank Barker,
tho convict condemned to bo put to
death, is not sane. Tho courts have
passed on his case aud the date of the
execution is June 10. Barker murder
ed his brother and sister-in-law. War
den Beemer naturally dislikes to have
a hanging iu the penitentiary aud it is
believed he will uot enter objections If
a movement is started to prevent tho
execution of tho death sentence by
having tho Lancaster county board of
insanity adjudge him insane. It is
said if tho board takes this action it
would prevent tho hanging, as tho state
law provides that a convict adjudged
insane shall bo taken to tho asylum
there to remain durlug his lusanlty.
Two men transferred from tho p6ni
tontlary to tho asylum a yoar or two
ago escaped from tho asylum. Stato
Journal.
Should Frank Barker oscapo hang
ing through the insanity dodge, it is
doubtful if any other person accused
of the crime of murder in this county
would bo given a chance to oscapo in a
similar nuinnor. There is no doubt of
Barker's guilt, and it seems rathor Into
in the day to bring .forward tho plea
of Insanity.
