Object Lesson.

The Lovelock Tribune gives this OBJ
ject lesson:
John G. Taylor was waiting to take
the train for the republican convention
at Reno, and was discoursing on the
beauties Of the Mckinley tariff.

two years ago for any property / own in
the valley" interposed j. T. Hauskins.
"Ill take that" replied Taylor.
1.-TWO years ago you offered 10 sell me
that wheat field over in section 3 for SID
an acre. l won't ask you to take go per
cent. I'll give you a hundred"
"All right" said Hauskins.
The deal was consumated. TAYLOR
drew his check for the amount, some
$4,000, before he stepped on the train.

MADE NO APPROPRIATION.

County Commissioners Declined t" Help
Out the Omaha Exposition.
The county commissioners finished
up their quarterly session and ad-
journed M"uuay evening, there not
bein. very much business on hand at
this session. The commissioners had
been importuned to make an appropria-
tion of S40O toward state exhibit at
the Omaha exposition. The members
considered the proposition and finally
came to the conclusion that they could
not, in justice to the citizens of the
county, make the appropriation, mainly
because it would increase the taxes in
the county and that is one thing they
we're anxious to avoid. 1t is to be re-
gretted that Davison county will not be
among the supporters to the Omaha
enterprise and if many counties view
the matter in the same light we are
afraid South Dakota will not be repre-
sented at the exposition. AS next
door neighbor to Nebraska it will be
unfortunate not to have the resources
of this state on exhibition there.

THEY PULLED THE HOUSE.

Determined to Stop the Bawdy House on
the Outskirts of Town.
The resolution or petition which was
presented to the city council some few
weeks ago calling attention of the coun-
Gil and the city and county officers Of
the fragrant violation of law, in refer
ence to the maintenance of house of
ill-fame in the extreme eastern part of
town, has finally developed into some
definite plan of action. Tuesday
afternoon a complaint was filed before
Judge Abbey in reference to this house
of ill-fame aud a warrant was issued for
the arrest of the madam, whose name
is Jeanette McGilivray. Deputy
Tobin served the warrant and brought
the woman before Judge Abbey late in
the afternoon. She was quite sick
with malarial fever and unable to stand
the hearing, consequently she waived
examination and was held to the circuit
court in bonds of 500, which she fur
nished with the necessary security, and
the case will be heard at the May term.
The madam has conducted the house
since last fall and at the present time
there was but one female inmate of the
house besides herself.

Several High School Pupils Will Add An
other Year 60 Their School Life.
Instead of graduating from the high
school this year in June several mem
bers of the A class have listened to the
good advice of Superintendent Quigley
to remain another year in the high
school, thus securing the advantages of
four year course, stepping out into
the world much better equipped to
pursue their studies elsewhere or take
up some occupation. 1t is regretted
that the high school does not include a
four year course, for in some instances
the scholar will be greatly benefited
by an additional year ofstudy. Special
classes will be formed for those who
will remain another year 80 as to make
the work profitable. This will enable
those pupils to complete several
branches and to take either Latin OF
the studies optional with it.

A Dispute Over the Possession of a Piece
of Land Leads to Trouble.
Late Friday afternoon John Eb
bott, farmer in Prosper township,
came to town and swore out a warrant
for the arrest of John Parker, neigh
boring farmer, making complaint OF
Mr.. Parker attacking him with
pitchfork and doing him bodily harm.
Sheriff Cook brought Mr.. Parker to
town today and the examination was
held before Justice Mckinley at the
court house in the afternoon, Messrs.
Helwig and Goodykoontz appearing tor
the defendant and F. n. Winsor for the
state. The circumstances leading up
the episode, as we're brought in the
examination, are about as follows:
Mr.. Ebbott had rented piece of
land from an eastern mortgage COM
pany after which the company sold the
land to Mr. Parker, who drove over
there yesterday to take possession of it.
Mr. Ebbott met him there and pre-
vented him from taking possession OF
the land, standing in front of the
horses. On Mr.. Ebbott's refusal to
stand aside Mr.. Parker went after him
with the pitchfork and iabbed him
several times on the arm. When Mr..
Ebbott was on the stand he disrobed
the upper portion of his body to show
the incisions made by the instrument
in the hands of Mr.. Parker.
The examination of John Parker for
his assault on John Ebbott was con-
cluded at the court house Saturday
afternoon and Mr.. Parker was held to
circuit court in bonds of $3.50. which he
readily gave. Mr.. Parker in his testi-
mony said that he had bought the land
and believed he was entitled to possess
sion of it, Notwithstanding the objec-
tion made by Mr.. Ebbott. Mr.. Parker
went on to the land to seed it and when
he was intercepted by Mr.. Ebbott half
way across the quarter he believed he
had right to defend himself on his
own property. Justice Mckinley, how
ever, held Mr.. Parker to the circuit
court and the matter will be fully aired
in that tribunal.

THE COMING CITY ELECTION.

The Approaching Contest in Mitchell
Commencing to Warm up Some.
A correspondent of the Argus Leader
from Mitchell sums up the political
situation in this city in reference to the
coming election. The correspondent
says:
City politics are beginning to warm
up here now. So far there has been
kind OF still hunt after candidates.
Thos. Fullerton, the present mayor, is q
candidate for reelection and it will be
the field against him. The prohibi-
tionists are opposed to him and they
are canvassing for man to beat him.
Among those under consideration are
DR.. Bracy, Joe Morrow, Everett Smith,
DR.. r. G. Warne and some others. OF
the above DR.. Warne will probably be
selected to be the standard bearer of
the prohibs, although he is license
man. 1t is felt, however, that what
ever Warne promises to do he will do
and of course the prohibs will have an
understanding with him as to the policy
of the incoming administration. The
that he violated the city ordinance in

the city. The ordinance says that no
city official shall have commercial deal
ings with the city while in office.
Fullerton has sold all the lumber and
coal to the city that has been sold in
two years, but it has all been done in
the name OF Thos. Wallace, Fullerton's
clerk. On the other hand Fullerton's
friends claim that while technically he
has violated the law, he has saved the
city money in doing so, as everything
sold the city has to be hid on, and they
claim to have had the lowest bid in for
all things sold the city
The success of the coming admins
tration will depend in measure on the
com plexion of the council. A majority
of the present council are regarded as
Fullerton men and are all candidates
for reelection. The prohibs will put
up such men as Mr.. Potter in the First,
Frank Weller in the Fourth, DR.. Ed
Dix in the Third. In the Second ward
am unable to find out who will oppose
Mr.. Indra, present incumbent. Geo.
Orswell in the Fourth is also seeking
aldermanic honors. "There are others"
also, but l will not stop to mention
them. The indications all point to q

of again awarding the contract to Mr..
Wallace under the circumstances.
Mayor Fullerton stated that while
Mr.. Wallace was employed by the
company that himself nor the Fuller
ton Lumber Co. had no more to do
with the bid nor was more interested
in the transaction than any member on
the council. Aldermen Bracy and
Levinger expressed the opinion that
the bid of Mr.. Wallace was bona fde
and that it was not necessary to inquire
as to whom the bid came from. When
it came to vote the contract was
awarded to Mr.. Wallace unanimously.
Resolutions we're adopted calling for
the city election on Tuesday, April 19,
and enumerating the various officers
which are to be elected. The judges
were likewise named for each voting
precinct in the oity. The council
adjourned until Tuesday, April 20.

SEEKING MORE LIGHT.
A Taxpayer Addresses Some Questions tc
the Mayor on City Finances.

the Mayor on City Finances.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN,: In your issue
of March 26 is statement made by
Mayor Fullerton to the city council
then in special session in regard to the
financial condition of the city. He
makes good showing, but does not go
far enough to suit some of the tax pay
ers of the city and the object of this
article is to encourage the honorable
mayor to go little farther and show
all the economy of the administration
now in power.
Mr.. Fullerton says that latter paying
the indebtedness contracted by the pre-
vious administration the balance in the
city treasury only amounted to ST., ,59l.-
63." From the county records we find
that there has been turned over to the
city during his term of office, for taxes,
S3l 1857 81 and the city treasurer's books
show as collected for fines, licenses,
water rents, etc. oyer $1,000, making
the sum total that has come into the
city treasury during the last % months,
S39, ,959.14. From this sum we find
there has been paid for city bonds
So, 500, interest on bonds, SS.4l7.22, and
Mr.. Fullerton reports cash on hand
81, 1912, total of $1S, ,256.3 "a, leaving
the amount paid to run the city 2;

which agitates the tax payer is: ha
it cost the city S2l, 7O2.7O for expenses
We are informed that the cost fo
lights, night watch, marshal and off
GERS salaries for the % months woul
amount to about $4,000 Where ha
the other $l1 900 gone?
The taxpayers expect and presum
, it is all right, but still they want t

report for the year, there being four

were transferred to other charges.
The Ladies Aid society figured strongly
in the reduction of the debt of the

may reasonably expect in the same
period this year we will have total
available fund of Sl1, ,407. .35." Let us
see how it would be so large. The
county treasurer paid to the city
treasurer last year from April 1st to
Sep. lst the sum of So, 1904 SO and will
probably not pay any more this year,
from what source will the city collect
the balance, 81, 1927, to make up the
amount of SS, S,O6S.25.
Mr.. Fullerton give us more light.
