The REGISTER was mistaken 10
saying that the murder Monday night
was caused by liquor. The dives were
closed Saturday night aud remained
closed until Tuesday. The only dive
keeper who attempted to open
was arrested. The murder was
cool, premeditated act of tough

Celebration Aftermath.

One of the best things done in lola
this summer has hitherto escaped
adequate notice in these columns, and
that is the erection of the splendid
flag pole in the public square and the
purchase of the beautiful flag which,
on all public occasions, will float from
it's summit. The REGISTER was the
first to suggest that this be done, but
the work of doing it was undertaken
by John Walters, John Often and +.
A. Northrup. 1t was no light task
and that it was 50 well aud promptly
done reflects great merit on the men
who did it. The staff Is of steel and
ought to stand for generation. The
flag Is of the best quality of bunting
