Superintendent Billbee is already
receiving letters from young people
over the county who want to attend

rooms and board. Some of them
want rooms only, others want board
and rooms and others want places

In renting for the Weekly REGIS
TER, Mrs. Austin, of Wayne, H., us
ed one of the commercial envelopes of
Elgin, H., which is hint of what
lola could do. Around the border of
the envelope is "A circle of manufacture
ing plants in Elgin, thirteen in num-
Der with their names beneath. Well
displayed is the line; 1.-THE gem man
ufacturing city OF the west.' If lola 5
factories were properly photographed

enough for any city to be proud of.
Readers of the REGISTER will re-
call an article in . recent issue of this
paper which stated that the Modern

from ID. p. Marley, supreme com
mander, and Geo. j. Seigle, supreme
recorder, stating that there is no truth
in the report and that no secret lodge

The ball game at Moran yesterday
resulted in a score of Tito q in favor
of the lola youngsters. The kids say
that the Moran nine was made up of
players from the first nine and part
of the Elsmore nine, but in spite of
this tremendous opposition they won
in walk. Great is Iola's kid nine.
The dearth of circuses this year in
Kansas is explained by the fact that
the railroads are so constantly and
excessively burdened with freight
business that they cannot give engine
service for them. They have made
their rates too high for them. The
absence of the circus tends to keep
much money at home, and means more
business for merchants.
The REGISTER has a letter from +.

game, Kansas, which says, in part;

The Colorado Lynchlng.

The argument that the negro de-
served his tate does not merit con-
sideration. The d,sgraceful tact
which cannot be argued away is that
a crowd of American citizens with
out legal authority inflicted punish
ment which no law in the whole
United States sanctions. If any one
can point out the difference between
the mob at Limon and any band OF
Indian savages of earlier days which
burned white men at the stake, we
should like to have him do So. BE
it remembered that the Indians, too,
had provocation, for the white men
had given them cause to regard
every white man as relentless foe.
