Billbc Will Hold Over.

The board of county commissioners
met in regular Session at the court
house this morning and will be en-
gagged for several days in going over
and allowing bills against the county.
Next Monday the board win meet
again and Mr.. Il. II. Tobey, the new
memb en-, will take his chair, Mr.. John
Mcdonald retiring.
One of the propositions before the
board at this meeting is the filling of
the vacancy in the Office of county
superintendent of public instruction,
occasioned by the change of law which
delays the assumption of Office by the
superintendent-elec until May l, while
the old law puts the old superintendent
out next week. Mr.. Billbe, the old
superb ntendent, and Miss Olmstead, the
superintendent elect, were the osten-
sible candidates for the place. Several
friends were urging that Mr.. Smith
who is the defeated Republican NOM
inee, be appointed, but the board will
probably simply allow Mr.. Billbe to
hold over, by default of making any
appointment.

SMITH LANDS
Well Known Young lola People Sur
prise their Frienes by Quietly
and Privately Marrying

At 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon Mr..
Frank b. Smith and Miss Bessie l.
Lands were united in marriage at the
home of Mr.. Harry Robinson, Rev.
Powell of the Episcopal church,
officiating.
The young people kept their pur-
pose well guarded and the news of
their marriage was a complete sur
prise to their many friends, Mrs.
Lands and Miss Winifred Lands,
mother and sister of the bride, being
in the dark as to the imminency of the
ceremony, although aware of the en-
gagement. The license was quietly
secured Saturday evening and the
young folks made their way to the
home of Mr.. Harry Robinson where
Rev. Powell met them and performed
the ceremony. They will go to house,
keeping at once at 60l south Wash
ington avenue.
Mr.. Smith came here from Pitts
burg, Pa, about two years ago, and
has filed with entire satisfaction to
his employers a responsible position
in the laboratory of the Banyon Zinc
Company. Handsome, well educated,
gentlemanly, he has won the enduring
and admiring friendship of those with
whom he has come in contact. Miss
Lands has lived in lola about the
same length of time, taking by right
the position of one of the fairest of
Iola's fair. In addition to her graces
of person she possesses charming
manner, II sweet womanliness that
have made those who became best ac-
quainted with her her best friends.
She has well trained voice and has
assisted in the Episcopalian choir
during her residence here, also help
ing at home entertainments.
So the friends of Mr.. and Mrs. f..
ID. Smith feel disposed to forgive
them without stipui dating terms of sur
render and extend as hearty con-
CALCULATIONS and as warm good
wishes as If they had been invited to
witness the ceremony and join in the
benediction.

Real Estate Takes q Squirt.

lola people have learned by expert
ence that the locating OF few factor
les means lively time for the season
in lola. 1t means the building of
houses, the coming of the renters and
the coming of buyers. So there al
ways follows II squirt in real estate
after the announcement of "things do
ing" and the knowledge that the
REGISTER announces these good
things as soon as the affairs is settled
is largely responsible for thecontinued
and daily increasing subscription and
advertising patronage. The announce-
ment of the ice plant increase to
double its size, of the purchase 10y Mr..
Chapman of the lola foundry and his
intention to enlarge it and the inter-
view with Mr.. Nicholson, telling ofhis
immediate intention To build two more
blocks of furnaces, were all found
exclusively in the REGISTER. The re-
suit is already evident.
Saturday the real estate men were
kept on the jump. a. w. Beck sold
six lots on which the purchasers in
tend to build four houses at once,
Huirerd 4 Jacobs sold four lots, on
all on which houses will be erected,
>. II. Heller made several sales and
other agents were busy with inquiries.

is going TO be hummer.

a RESOLUTION directing the census
committee to inquire into the alleged
restriction of the right OF suffrage in
the southern States was defeated in
the House Wednesday by the narrow
margin of two votes. AS large
number of members of the House were
absent, the resolution will doubtless
come up again. And it ought to pass.
The Republican party now has power
TO remedy the wrong inflicted upon the
North by the practice in the South of
counting the Negroes in order to
secure large representation in Con-
gress and not counting their votes,
and if it does not do it no Republican
can have the face to complain about
it again.

"We have had an average of two or
three complaints every day since the
Grand Army encampment from per-
sons who were sold worthless tickets
by scalpers. In some cases women
were put of trains because they had
paid all their money for these fraudu-
lent tickets. The scalpers refuse to
refund the money paid for such tickets
until we send an officer with the per-
son. Then they refund promptly,
After the police get their money back

The Emporia Gazette publishes a
rousing editorial upon the danger of
Emporia becoming a wicked city when
she shall have grown into great
metropolis on account of the new rail
road to which the county has just vot-
ed bonds, and it appeals to the moral
sentiment of the community to see that
the town is kept good and pure. Some
five or six years ago some most eX-
cellent women of lola wrote letter in
n similar vein to the county attorney
and asked the REGISTER to publish 1t,
which it did without comment and with
the signatures Of the women attached.
Whenlthe editor Of the REGISTER was
a candidate for Office last fall, sc ;eral
people put in most OF their time for
two months circulating among the
smelter men aud telling them that the

class of citizens to lola! SO the
Gazette man knows what is in store
for him If he ever runs for Office.

hcers ought to look after the case. And
ii the county attorney fails or refuses
to proceed, or II, for any other reason,
this law is not enforced in any county,
the attorney general of the state is re-
sQuired to appoint one or more assistant
attorney generals as many as he sees
fit for that county for the purpose of
enforcing this particular law. 1T Will
thus be seen that our laws and Legal.
machinery are amply sufficient for the
complete execution of the prohibitory
law in every part of the state; and IT IS
"a fact that whenever and wherever the.
officers that are charged with its execu-
ton have faithfully done their duty as
the law provides. there has been no.
more difficulty in enforcing this law
than there has been in enforcing the law
against any other offense
In a carefully prepared report by an
experienced and thoroughly competent

ii was stated thai l29 towns had been

PROHIBITION IN KANSAS.

In view If the recent interest aroused
in the illegal traffic in liquors in kan
aas as the result of Mrs Nations Cruz
sades, an article on prohibition in that
state from the pen of ex-senator w. a.
Ieffer in the April Forum is instructive
He says in part:
Our prohibitory legislation has all
.Leen thru the courts, and the result, in
a few words is thatin Kansas anything
and everything in the nature Of a
5crinking saloon, tipplng shop. dram
shop or joint is unlawful from any ard
every point of view. Intoxicating liq-
TORS may be lawfully sold in Kansas for
medical, mechanical and scientific pur-
L oses only, and nobody other than le-
Eally permitted druggist may sell for
these purposes. Hence the person whom
we designate a joint-keeper deliberate
8ly and defantly puts himself outside the
law every time he sells a glass of whis-
ky or a mug of beer to any person for
any purpose. Furthermore, the place Iii
which he carries on the unlawful traffic
was long ago declared to be public
nuisance.
This kind of legislation differs from
criminal laws generally in one inpor-
tant particular If a horse be stolen, a
Rouse burglarized or a man beaten
CIR robbed, the offense is primarily one
against property or person, and hence
it is presumed that the personal inter-
est of the Individual most Immediately
concerned is sufficient to move him 10
give information of the offense to the
authorities; but in the case of unlawful
liquor selling. the offense is neither
against person nor property. The per-
son who buys the liquor wants it for his
own use He asks for it, pays for it
and drinks it, or carries it away fol
future use. The offense is not agains'
the person or his property, but agains
4 the whole people in their organized ca.
pacity as state. 1t is not against one
hut against all, taken as one, that the
seller has sinned. No one person is more
| Interested in the transaction than an
other, for all are equally concerned a.
citizens or residents Of the state. 1t Il
not such an offense as would ordinaril,
and naturally move the average either
