A couple of young folks claiming
to hail from Iowa county drove into
town last Monday evening and took
supper at the Proctor house. After
satisfying their true inwardness, the
Young man asked landlord Proctor
to direct him to a justice of the
peace. Knowing that Squire Hooper
is never out late o'nights, the accom-
Odating host took the trouble to go
down Louisa street and point out
that magistrates residence. Then
the Young fellow went back to the
hotel, tucked the blushing girl I'M
der bis arm, and taking her before
the squire, the twain We're made one
flesh IN just 81 minutes standard
time After kissing the bride, the
squire dismissed the couple with
bis blessing, promising them at
their request that he wouldn't allow
anybody else to get onto the affair
within so days if he could help it.
Being friend of the Squire, we
refrain from publishing the names
until the law requires him to give
them up to the county recorder

A few months ago one Of respect
able young men was arrested be-
cause he dared to "smile out loud''
while attending Salvation meeting,
being prompted to do so by what he
considered the ludicrous words and
actions Of one Of the members.
Last Friday night 4 prominent citi-
zen of the county trundled his
carcass into the Salvation barracks
and proceeded to anarchize things
in manner that would have put
Herr Most or Thomas B. Reed to
shame. The silly jargon of his
bolsterous tongue was interrupted
only at such times as its owner saw
1T to recourse to draughts from his
"little brown Jug" and the scene is
described by some eye witnesses to
have been exceedingly ludicrous,
and by others as being extremely
disgusting. OF course, being a
prominent citizen, no arrest followed,
and once more we are compelled to
note the non-application of our
fundamental laws which guarantee
equal treatment and protection to
all citizens.-Ddr. Dem. and Reg.
The special school meeting which
was held at the High school build
ing, III this city, on Thursday even
Ing of last week, authorized the
school board to purchase from DR..
WI. Pearce plat of land adjoin-
ing the school lot and containing a
fraction more than an acre, for the
sum of 1925, and the meeting also
voted a tax for that amount to make
'he payment. 80. The absurd
report which by some means reached
hollandale that the Mayor of
Dodgeyille had intimated that he
would interfere with the regulations
Of that village for the purpose of
guarding against the spread of
,Gphtheria there, must have been
Dorm of Imagination. The Mayor
never intimated any such thing, and
me report was entirely false. Men
