DIR. JONES FOR STATE SENATOR.

DIR. A. B. Jones has announced that
he will be a candidate for State Sena-
tor from this the 39th Senatorial Dis
trict. The doctor has lived here for
the past twenty years, has worked for
the best interests of the town and
county. He owns property, is a heavy
Taxpayer and one of the most enter
prising energetic citizens we have.
He is for advancement in all lines,
educationally, publicly and politi-
calIy, always willing to take hold ana
do his share, and now for the first
time that he asks for an Office it is
the duty of his friends and those he
has helped, to turn out and work for
him, and should he receive the nomi-
nation and be elected it will be his
earnest intention to discharge the
official duties devolved upon him in
manner highly satisfactory to all

RULING OF STATE SUPERINTENDENT.

Parents or guardians of children
living three or four miles from the
school house may receive a sum not
to exceed fifteen cents per day for
each pupil actually transported to
and from school. OF course district
boards are not obliged to pay the
maximum amount of fifteen cents for
each pupil but may pay any sum not
to exceed that amount.
I suppose the intention of the leg
islature in passing this law was that
district boards should pay to parents
a Just compensation for the actual
expenses necessary for transporting
pupils who may live at too great a
distance from the school house to
walk No unjust or unreasonable ac-
tion either upon the part of the par
ent or guardian or district board
would in my opinion stand the test of
the law. FRANK NELSON,
State Supt. Public Instruction.
This is published because of the
many Inquiries about the law / be-
iieve where districts are compelled to
levy the maximum 20 mills to have
the required four months school this
additional tax would become inopera-
tive, but that where districts are
able fair and equitable arrangement
should be made between district
boards and parents

LAST CALL ANSWERED.
Death of One of Ellsworth's Honorable Cit

Although death had followed close
Iy for some time, its actual occurrence
came ~ ii surprise on last Sunday
morning. when it was announced that
William III. Spicer had passed to the
Great Beyond. He had been in fail-
ing health for the past year, and with
the ardent hope that lie would recov-
er, his faithful wife accompanied him
to Eureka Springs, where for eight
months they tested their healing in
fiuenceS, which tended TO bury up
their hopes for final recovery. About
the first OF January new and unex-
pected complications developed, and
daily their newly found hopes were
surely growing weaker Preparations
were made for the home coming, and
just one week prior to his death they
arrived ut home, with almost every
hope vanished. lie passed away at
O'Clock last Sunday morning, sur
rounded by his famIly-except his son
David, now in the service of his coun-
try in far-off Mainland number
of his friends. The end was peaceful.
For ten years he has been one of ELS
worth's most respected business men.
a successful merchant tailor. He was
noted for his integrity, and fidelity
to any cause he eSpOused. He was of
a firm disposition, and when he once
settled upon Il matter, he was immov-
able, and could not be swerved from
what he conceived to be right He
was noted for his fidelity to his word,
and no human power could induce
him to violate it. As to his military
career, he was valiant soldier. He
enlisted September 9, 1861, in Co. e,
9th Pa. Vol. as a private at 20 years
of age, at Westchester, Pa, for three
years, and was discharged as SER
geant November 10, 1864, on account
of wounds received at the siege of
Petersburg, July 8, 1864, at the q. s.
hospital in Philadelphia. He partici-
pated, with his regiment, in y en-
gagements, including four sieges, up
to the time he received his wounds at
the siege of Petersburg. During his
service he received five promotions.
Mr. Spicer was born of English par
entage, in Limerick, Ireland, while
his parents were travelling for the
benefit of his fathers health. Coming
to America with his parents, they
settled in Philadelphia, where on No
vember 3, 1868, he was married to
Miss Bridget Ryan, who, with nine
children survive him. To this union
fourteen children were born, Eve of
whom are dead In 1866 the family
moved to Chicago, and in 1880 went
to western Kansas. and took up a
ranch of 800 acres. In 1899 he came
to Ellsworth, where he carried on the
business of merchant tailor. until

don it, lie WAS a charter member of
