The new ballot law requires
each political party to have an
emblem, to be selected by the
chairman of the state central
committee. The emblem is to
appear at the head of each ticket
on the ballot. Chairman Morton
Albaugh of the Republican COM
mittee has selected an eagle for
his party emblem. This is the
only selection that has been made
thus far. Albaugh says that he
has investigated the matter to
some extent and finds that in
most states where an emblem is
required, the Republicans use an
eagle, and the Democrats roos-
ter. ]. Mack Love will make the
selection for the Kansas Demo
Gratis, E. r. Ridgley for the Pop
u1ists, G. C. Clemens for the So
cialists, and Frank Sibley for the
Prohibitionists. In case two
chairman select the same emblem
the state contest board decides
which is entitled to it.-Anthony

New School Laws.

The last session of the 1egisla-
ture made some important
changes in the school laws now
in force. An enrolment of thir-
tyfve persons in a county instr
tute will authorize the county
superintendent to call for $50
from the state. The lawrequires
that the county commissioners
pay 500 to the institute fund in
each county and also pay the as
sociate examiners for four days
service each quarter.
An act was passed reducing
the the minimum price of school
land from 50 to S1.25 per acre.
County superintendent are al
lowed 81 per school per annum
for travelling expenses while Wis
iting schools, and all money is re-
funded actually expended for
stationary, postage, freight and
express.
The law in regard to third
grade certificates was so amend
ed as to re-establiSh the stand
ard. Under the present law an
applicant, in. order to pas, must
not be less than 16 years of age,
must make a general average OF
not less than 20 per cent in all
the branches required for first
grade except bookkeeping, natur,
al philosophy and civil govern
ment, and must not fall below SO
per cent in any branch. No linn
it is placed on the numberof sue
cessive third grade certificates
which may be issued to one per.
son.
The new law also provides that
adjacent school districts, with
out regard to population, may be
consolidated by majority vote
of each district. When a notice
of the vote is sent to the county
superintendent it becomes that
officers duty to consolidate the
districts and call a meeting fol
the election of a board. The
board is authorized to contract
for the transportation of pupils
living two or more miles from
the school and provision is made
for the indebtedness, if there BIZ
any in each district.
The law also prohibits the
school board from employing any
rela tives of the members of the
board as teachers, except by {
unanimous vote.

Horace B. Turnure, of Camp
No. 7O9, M. W. A, Masan City,
Iowa, died April 10th. About
midnight April 18th, his wife
shot him and then herself. His
certificate in the Woodmen So
ciety is for $4,000 and reads pay
able to Legal Heirs" The
point of the incident is, certifi-
Gates issued by the Woodmen
society become void when the
beneficiary under certificate shall
Intentionally cause the death of
the member insured. Under the
laws of Iowa the designation,
illegal Heirs" gives the widow
one-third in case there are child
rem. In this case the mem ber,
though wounded first, lived I'M
til five o'clock in the morning,
while the death of the wife i'm
mediately followed the shooting.
Who is entitled to the insurance?
This fact would appear to clear
ly entitle the six minor children
made orphans by the act of the
mother to the full amount of the
certificate, they taking share and
share alike.

The man who reads the 'sTwice-a-Week'
Republic knows all about affairs political
domestic and foreign events; is posted abou
the markets and commercial matters general

The woman who reads the "Twice-a

information about household affairs and late
fashions and finds recreation in the brigh
stories that come under both the headings o.
fact and fiction. There is gossip about new
books and dozen other topics of especial in

We think that Meade is con-

many other towns in Kansas.

although there may have been a
little "bootlegging" some time
ago, but at present, too knowl-
edge, there is not any liquor be-
ing sold in town. If you want
anything you must ship it in or
bring it with you. Meade is a
great deal better town than it
was a few years ago. You must
remember that it is the people
who make the town, good or bad,
and the more good people you
have the better it will be. Every
town has its scape goats the same
as every field has its weeds and
cuckle burrs. Time with good
work is the remedy.

A very pleasant time was spent at the Bis
bee ranch southeast of town last Saturday
evening when good sized crowd of merry
makers gathered there to have jolly good
time and they surely had it. Parlor games
etc. were enjoyed by the ones taking part.
Of course we had some excellent yarn-spin-
ming by the Y. s. who were present. An ex-
cellent supper was served at the proper time
and we lost no time in getting there. After
supper they proceeded with their different en-
| tertainments for several hours, when all feel
ing well paid for their presence departed for
their different roosts, thanking the Bisbee
family for their generosity. Goodnight.
