Carlyle Correspondence.

Preaching at the Presbyterian church mex,
Sunday, May eth, at O'Clock p. m, by Rev.
Robert Scott, of lola.
Mr.. Curtis shipped car load of cattle from
this station May II.
twas complained that the reporter was par
tial last week In his notes. We thought we had
mentioned the other parties that shipped stock
but even editors and reporters sometimes make
mistakes, but not Intentionally, Of course.
The barber of Maple Grove says says he
thinks he will have to move his shop to Hum
boldt, as business is getting rather scarce here.
School closes in two weeks at Maple Grove,
Although it is we and the farmers are kept
from getting their crops planted as soon as they
wish to, yet the work is progressing, and the
crops are being sowed and planted and almost
everyone is predicting that there will be the
biggest crop raised this year that there has
been for years, and Hon. f. II. Funston in an
address at the Presbyterian church on Sunday
said we have not had failure of crops for sew
en- or eight years. Then there Is no reason to
be discouraged. o. SEE

ed by the single alternative, either to
spend S.. 200 or Sc, 900 on the old build
ings, or to erect new ones, we take the
ground that true economy dictates the
latter course. The county seat question
does not properly enter in. Long ago,
by vote Of the people, lola was made
the capital of the county, and SINCE
that time the people have expressed no
desire to change 1t. The completion
of the Wichita road has made 1t more
easily accessible from all parts of the
county than is any other town. A
moments calm reflection will certain
ly convince anyone that three-fifths of
the tax payers of the county can never
be brought to agree on another town
than lola as a location for county
seat, and until this proportion can be
made to agree, it cannot be changed.
Then what position are our friends
in, who while frankly admitting that
it would be folly to spend more money
Oh the old buildings and that we ought
to have new ones, yet refuse to vote
for them because they are to be built
i'm lola? We do not want to be too
rough on them, but it seems to us that
they are allowing their personal in
terests and prejudices to lead them in
to action which they know to be
against public policy.
Let the position be distinctly under
stood. The question, and the only
question is, shall we throw good mon
ey after bad by repairing old buildings,
or shall we build new ones?

Allen Center Articles.

Since writing our last communication the fell
destroyer, death, has been in our midst, and
Mr.. ID. T. Thompson has been called from his
| earthly home to the unknown land beyond the
river, where we all, sooner or later, must go.
Little thought we, when on Thursday We saw
him in LaHarpe, with all his accustomed buoy
ancy Of spirit, and apparently enjoying good
health, that before half of another week had
passed we would he called upon to attend the
last sad rites by which his body was committed
to the earth and his spirit to his maker. Sad
indeed is the visitation OF death i'm any form,
but for person, strong robust, and in the en-
joyment OF good, general health, surrounded
by a good, dutiful family, and with bright
hopes and prospects for the future before him,
for such person, we say, to be cut down with
ont an hours warning, in the very prime of
life, when prospects for its enjoyment seemed
to promise SO fair, is terrible. Such was the
sad fate OF Mr.. Thompson. He had been to one
OF the neighbors on Saturday afternoon. and af-
ter passing pleasant hour or two went home |
and did little work at draining his corn field |
Having finished that he went TO the honse and |
was standing near the door talking to some of
his children, when suddenly he complained of
a sharp pain In his breast. Preparations were |
at once being made for his relief when he sank |
into a chair, became unconscious, and in ten |
mir utes, perhaps less time than that, had
breathed his last. Coming so suddenly as 1t
did it was a fearful blow to his family, because
1t deprived them Of loving husband and
kind and indulgent father Fearful to his
feiends because they are deprived of an Oblig-
ing neighbor, and one in whose breast beat
heart OF kindness. The funeral services were
conducted at the house at eleven O'Clock Mon
day morning, by Rev. Lintner, Of Humboldt,
after which the remains were taken to lola
where they were buried by the G.. A. RS, OF
which organization the deceased was Menu
Der. Taken all in all, it is very, very sad,
and the grief-strcken family may rest assured
that they have the heartfelt sympathy Of the
entire community.
Capt. +. c. Sands and Mr.. j. q. Foster, of

THE Inter State complains that lola
never supports Humboldt men. If
we remember the figures correctly lola
last fall gave Mr.. Amos $50 votes,
while Humboldt gave him 800. lola
gave Mr.. Stewart 1913 votes, while
Humboldt gave him 262. With one
or two exceptions every Humboldt
man who has held office i'm the county
has received more votes in lola than
i'm his own town.

WHAT PARENTS FEAR.

Many persons-especially parents
object to many quack nostrums as like
ly to engender or encourage a love for
strong drink. They are right. Better
die Of disease than Of drunkenness. The
use of Parker's Tonic does not involve
this danger. 1t not only builds up the
system, curing all ailments Of the
stomach, liver and kidneys, but it
stimulates without intoxicating and
absolutely cures the appetite for liquor.
