They say that Sheriff Long and some

were some quite lively scrambles in the

Reno county republican delegates to
the State convention have been COM
plimented by the News quite pro- |
fusely on what they did. We notice
also that some Of the republican pa
pers say that it was Reno county dele
gates who placed charge of dynamite
under Jim Simpson that blew him
clear off the State committee.
The store and postofllce at Elmer

store and tried to open the stamp

wanting nothing but money, They
also broke open the money drawer,
but found nothing, and so far as
learned took nothing else They en-
tered by breaking the glass in the door
and turning the key in the lock.
At the FIRST M e. church Sunday
pledges Of $1,000 were made for the
purpose of remodeling the church 1t
is expected that about $1,000 will be-
needed to effect the changes that are
desired, but the balance can be easily
raised, and as there is now no mort
gage on the church the financial con-
dition of the organization Is excellent
