Obitu ary.

Olive Story, eldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. r. Story, was born in
Cresco in 1875 and died October S,
1897, aged "a years. In the spring of
1894 she attended and took part in an
entertainment given in DEBORAH,
where she took a severe cold from
which she never recovered. For three
long years she fought the battle
for life, her parents sending her to
Arizona accompanied by her mother
one winter, and to a health resort in
Georgia the past winter without ar
resting the fatal disease. Her courage
and oheerfulness at all times, en-
couraged her parents to continued
efforts in the uneven strife with the
disease. Ollie, as she was famlliarly
known, was bright and noble girl,
full OF ambition and life. and in her
untimely death the sorrowing family
has the the full sympathy of all our
people.

The Shrlevalty.

The PLAIN DEALER favors the re-
election of A. G. Campbell to the
office of Sheriff, because he has been
a capable, faithful and efficient
officer, and is, according to the usual
custom in this county, and indeed in
most of the counties of the state, en-
titled to this public endorsement.
While he is not officious as an inter
meddler in the private affairs of 9TH
ers, he is prompt, faithful and effic-
lent in the discharge of every lawful
duty, even though at times they
might be unpleasant duties.
We have no word against Mr..
Woodward, who we regard as good
and worthy citizen, but under the
circumstances consider his candidacy
two years too soon. Beside the fees
and salary of the office is small COM
pensation, and an incumbent, who
discharges its duties satisfactorily to
the public, should not, for political
reasons alone, be compelled to vacate
at the end of single term. We have
taken pains to ascertain from our
local attorneys, as we'll as from those
of neighboring towns and cities, their
estimate of Mr.. Campbell as servant
of the public in his Office, and almost
without IN exception they speak Of
him as pertaining to the discharge of
his official dulles in terms of the high
est commendatiop. He is moral, tenn
perate, vigilant, full of courage and
energy in the pursuit of evil doers,
and is usually successful in bringing
those who violate the laws of God
and man to the bar of justice. The
business which Sheriff has at his
disposal is of little or no Importance
to newspaper. During Mr.. Camp
BELLS term of Office all the business he
has given to this Office has been but
$22.50 year. Hence, it is not for the
patronage at his disposal that we ask
his reelection. Indeed the patron
age given the PLAIN DEALER by his
predecessor, Mr.. Hewlett, was $31. so
year. The truth is, the attorneys
in each case largely control tine sher-
if sales as to the paper in which they
shall be published. These statements
are made lest some should infer that
our support of Mr.. Campbell for a
sesond term is for the patronage at
his disposal, when our support is bas-
ed upon the broad ground tnat as a
faithful and honest officer he is en-
titled to the endorsement asked.

Held Up.

last Saturday Herman Genshow
went out to collect money due him
for work done at his trade returning
at about II o'clock at night. When
just this side the Michael James
house on the Granger road. he was
held up by three men with masks
hiding their faces and at the muzzle
of revolvers was compelled to sur
render his purse containing $75. 90.
He thinks he recognized the voice Of
one OF the brigands and that all three
were from Cresco, parties who knew
his mission, and laid in wait to re-
lieve him OF his hard earned money.

Quick Returns from Advertising

DR.. w. B. Ousley had an advertise.
ment in the PLAIN DEALBR, which
appeared the first day of the Howard
county fair, advertising to extract
teeth free of charge for thee hours

the first day he extracted 1856 teeth,
and sixty the second day, making n
total Of 2l6 extracted in two days,
the announcement for which appear
