Women can't vote: but they make
mighty good officers sometimes. Jf
an auditor's office in the state was

in better order than that of Emmons

I ing the rush and hurry of receiving
and tabulating election returns, we
have never heard of it.

learn.
Last Monday evening there was
considerable excitement at the de
pot when the N. P. train came in.
A German farmer who was await
ing the arrival of friends tied his

What the people thought of ller
olz's cirular attack 011 Tuttle two
years ago, and his unseating by the
House of Representatives while he
had a certificate of election signed
by Governor Burke in his pocket, is
shown by the fact that he carried
both counties in his district, his
home precinct, and the heme pre
cincts of the other three candidates.
Former Emmonsonians in the new
South Dakota towns are happy over
some of the election resuits. Tim
ber Lake, where Andy Wolf'er has a
store, beat Isabel for county seat.
Mcintosh, where Patterson, Flaher-
Carmicheal are in business,
beal Marristown for county seat.
County division, which would have
left Mcintosh high and dry on the
border, also failed to carry.
To learn the value of cooking l'eetI
for live stock, extensive trials were
made at the experiment station in
feeding hogs and cattle raw feed

fed raw. Potatoes were an excep
tion, as they gave the best returns
when cooked. -Agricultural College

date of birth and death, and the
name of the company and num
ber of the regiment in which the de
ceased served.
About a week ago John Dalke, en
gineer at the Brofy flour-mill, had

in the general sioreof Fred lleppor
le. Mr. Keemtz is a competent store
man and a good citizen, and his
many friends hi re wish him well in
his new location.
Comrade Wagher met with a con
siderable accident last Saturday
night. One of his chickens insisted
on roosting in his buggy,against the
peace and dignity of the owner of
said chicken and buggy. So, for
getting that he was not as limber
jointed as he was forty years ago,
he climbed into the vehicle and
seized the fowl. Then he slipped
and fell, stricking tho lower ribs of
his right side on wheel, bruising
the ribs aforesaid considerably.
But he hung to the bird. (Reports
that it was somebody else's chicken,
in somebody eNe's buggy, on some
body else's preimses, are untrue and
libelous. I

tind, so 1 just dropped in for a few
hours for isolation." Tho merchant

Vandals, or some other species of
the human family, entered tlioG. A.
Lenhart. home Sunday atfernoon,
while the family were absent, and
proceeded to create a disturbance
among the Lenhart belongings, by
"stacking" the furniture, placing
washtubs, etc., in the parlor and de
moralizing the appearance of the
rooms in general. Nothing of value
was missing, however so the mis
chief was charged up to practical
jokers.
In another part of this issue will
be found a notice of reward over
the signature of L. W. Crandall,
road suporvisiur of the Sixth dis
trict, for the arrest and conviction
of the party or parties taking ma
terial from the Cabbage bridge. 'J he
amount taken was not so great but
that most anyone who needed such
material could allord to buy it
but it is the more provoking to go
to a certain place to do a day's
work, expecting to find the material
on the ground,and on arriving then
lind that the material has been stoln.
Even though the county furnishes
the material (which we are not. pre
pared to say in this particular case)
that fact doesn't lessen either the
burden of the road supervisor or the
taxpayer, neither does it, make the
crime of larceny any less, and the
guilty person or persons should re
ceive just punishment for their mis
deeds.

Hazelton, like many other cities,
seems to have more than its share
of dogs, and, too. as in other place",
a large percentage of these are hun
gry, worthies canines who have rio
home, rio other way of porviding
for their wants than hy foraging
and when a poor, hungry brute of a
(ioK is cornpelleei 1 to go out foraging
for his daily rations, he becomes
more than a public nuisance he be
comes a pestilence to the community
and is hounded from door to door
hy clubs arid stones, lie-ides, he en
tices other dogs, who have' been well
trained to stay at home, into bad
habit-, thus making the pedigreed
dog as much of a pestilence as the
tramp eariine. Too many of these
pest- have been dumped upon our
streets, and there should be a general
cleaning up of all such before the
raw winter sets iri. It would really
be better for the dogs, and create a
long wished for era of peace among
our citizens.
