otto Kruger Sells Out.

For seventeen years people of Allen
county have been familiar with the
name of Kreuter d Kruger and have
understood that this firm was one OF
the most conservative and reliable in
the community. Other meat markets
have come and gone but Kreuter d
Kruger seemed destined to go on
forever, and the name was so euphon.
eous that it seems wrong to change it,
but such u change has taken place.
MIR. Otto Kruger has sold out his
interest in the meat business to Mr.
Jno. Lewis, of Orrick, Mo, who comes
here very highly endorsed as gen
tleman in private life and q thorough.
ly honest and competent business
man on the street. Mr.. Lewis has
moved his family here and will occu'
Ply one of ID. Kinks houses on South
Washington avenue.
Mr.. Kruger has not yet formed
plans for the future, but for while
at least, he will loaf and enjoy rest
which he well deserves, after seven
teen years of steady work. While
sorry to announce the retirement of 81
good q man, the REGISTER wishes t
recommend the new firm, headed by
Mr.. Glenn Kreuter, of the old firm, Il
public confidence.

Another Long Step Taken in the Direc-
tion Of Building Up a Metropolitan
Printing Plant For lola. In
Few Days the Register Will
Be Able To Do
FIRST CLASS BOOK WORK
Including the Finest Grade of Flat
Opening Deed and Record Books,
Bank Books. and all Kinds Of
Binding, In the Best Style
Of the Art.

The REGISTER has just completed
arrangements and negotiations
which enable IL to announce that
within a few dsys, December l at the
latest, this office will be equipped
with complete and up to date Book
Bindery.
The machinery will be shipped the
latter part of this week aud should
arrive and be in place by the end OF
next. 1t will be set up in the south
east corner of the REGISTER building
in the rooms now occupied by Justice
Potter and by the REGISTER paper
stock.
The most important part OF book
bindery is the man who is to have
charge of it and do the work. The
REGISTER Bindery has been fortunate
in securing the services of Mr.. A. f.
Languille, who has for several years
been running the Pittsburg Book
Bindery, and who knows all there is
10 know about the trade. Mr. Lam
guile will arrive next week and will
personally superlntend the installing
of the machinery. He will have full
charge of this department of the
REGISTER office and our citizens will
find him courteous gentleman and
a business man upon whose word
they may fully rely.
The plant will be equipped with a
ruling machine and all the appliance
necessary to the manufacture of blank
books of all descriptions, from bank
check to the beautiful and ponderous
volumes used in keeping the public
records, as we'll as for binding maya
zines or rebindiBg old books in any
style desired. And with all the
work turned out there will go an alb
solute guaranty OF satisfaction to the
purchaser.
In adding this new and expensive
department to It's already large equip
ment, the REGISTER practically
brings now enterprise to lola and
adds another proof of its faith in the
future of our city. While we shall by
no means depend upon lola alone to
keep the Bindery busy, it goes with
out saying that its success will de-
pend in very large measure upon its
home patronage. We therefore re-
spectfully solicit this patronage,
assuring all who favor us with their
orders that the REGIsTER Bindery
will meet the prices and equal the
work of any other book bindery in
the state

The final arrangements were made
Wednesday and Mr.. G. Golf retires
from the photography business and
will devote his time exclusively to his
optical work. The gallery passes in
to the hands Of Mr.. w. H., Mckenzie,
of Tampico, Illinois. gentleman OF
wide experience and up-tO-date ability
and skill in the business. Mr.. Nc
Kinzie is a cousin by marriage of 4.
Il. Shannon. and II was while on a
visit here last fail that he became en-
amored of the town and had to return.
That is the only reason he gave for
leaving good location in Illinois and
it was one which is shared by many
people who visit here. Mr.. Mckenzie
will move his family here as soon as
he is located. He will have some
thing to say to REGISTER readers soon
and the paper feels safe in recon-
mending it's friends to Mr.. Mckenzie
and him to them and will stand god
father to the introduction.

A Protest.

Editor REGISTER: The Farmers
Friend said that Randolph Washing
ton who was drowned, was buried in
that part of the cemetery set apart
for colored people / did not know
that the laws OF Kansas set aside a
part of the cemetery for colored
folks.
Mrs. Washington sent two sons in
to the army to fight for their country.
She had one son left at home to help
make her living, and now he is gone.
The Friend said he was "the happiest
good day niger in town" The low
est demon in hell would not have put
that in print for poor bereaved
mother to look on. Peoples feelings

The county attorney sitting near them
out apparently taking 10 part in the
prosecution, aside from AN occasional
uggestinn.
The tir-t two witnesses were farm
rs who trade at Humboldt about once
week Both testified that they had
purchased beer or whiskey from Cock
ey five or six times during the past
'wo years. One of these spoke feeling.

ing attorney, MIR. Amos, calling HIM

"Well, / bought what they called
whiskey."
"But don't you know it was whisk
ey?"
~ guess it was, but it wasn't the
kind we used to get, George and
the crowd laughed.
The express man testified to having
delivered boxes, cases aud kegs, hav-
ing revenue stamps on, also return
addresses to breweries. He couldn't
swear as to their contents.
The next witness had bought five

In hf 10 "A 10
hat he had drank beer for several
years and that Cockey sold what was
recognized as beer"
So far only dozen counts had been
found, but the next witness was a boz
nanza for the state. He was a driller
who had had scrape with the de-
fendant last January and had trans
ferred his patronage. He testified
that nearly every evening on his way
home from work he stopped and took
a drink of beer, altogether several
hundred drinks and certainly mot
less than one-hundred.
The Langley case went to the jury
at 2:30 o'clock.
And so on down the line, between
ten and fifteen witnesses being ques-
toned, The trials promise to be any
thing but farce and the prospect
seems very good Of finding every joint
st ia the county guilty on from ten to
five hundred counts. Three witnesses
swore to 10 counts against Cockey,
which means that Mr.. Langley, alias
Cockey, ifglven the full penalty of
the law on the evidence now in, is liza

a jail sentence of $500 days or a few
days over nine years. To what fig.
