Corky has reduced the price Of what he
calls his newspaper; but, as better wrap.
ping paper can still be bought at less
price, he will have TO come down again II
he expects to compete with that article.
Corky howls because the county officers
do not enforce the proh,b law, and then
suggests. as one of two honorable
courses" "to ignore the existence Of
the places where such law [prohibl,ion]
is violated" This is consistency with q
vengeance.
An exchange says that it wasn't Mis-
souri, editor, but a Missouri printers
devil. who was gong through his first
experience of arranging type in the
pages. The paper was late, the boy was
ratified, and he got things mixed. The
first part of the obituary notice of an i'm
pecunious citizen had been dumped in
the page. and the next handful Of type
was from an article describing q recent
local fire. This was the way it read
when the paper was printed "The pail
bearers lowered the body to the grave,
and as 1t was consigned to the flames
there we're few II any regrets, for the old
wreck had been an eyesore to the town
for many years. OF course there was in
dividual loss, but that was fully covered
by insurance" The widow thinks the
editor wrote the obituary notice that way
because the lamented partner of her Joys
and sorrows owed him fye years sub.

The Record stated last week that the

had departed across country toward the
southeast. Sheriff Shier and Deputy
Sheriff Boutillier started to drive over to
La Moure county, as 1t was thought that
Taylor was making break for some rail-
road station over there. The sheriff and
J deputy got as far as Napoleon, where
| they found that, owing to there being
much more snow than there ls here, they
would have tough time going on wheels
to La Moure county. They gave up the
cross.country trip, but not BY any means
the idea Of capturing the fugitive. Gong
to Steele, they started for Edgeley by
train. 1t the latter place they found
their man, and captured him while he
was playing game Of pool. Taylor
was taken to Steele and turned over to
| the sheriff Of Morton county, and he ia
now IN jail at Mandau. Sheriff Shler and
Deputy Boutillier deserve much credit
for the perseverance which resulted in
this important capture.
