There seems to be quite diversity of
opinion regarding the much talked of
smallpox across the line in Lindlev
township. The physicians claiming it
is, while many claim it is not because of
the reported" no "inconvenience" in
most cases, of those who have been and
are Athlete | with the contagion, there
fore much has been said about it and
because of the quarantine. Let the
symptoms develope into what it may,
smallpox, Cuban itch, chickenpox or
any contagious disease, The physicians
have done their duty in reporting in to
the proper authorities as the law directs,
thus throwing all responsibilities upon
the state and county and relieving
themselves of the possibilities of being
Indicted. Hence the only thing to do
is observe strictly the quarantine, and
then even if you don't come out with
great pits on your face, you will feel
better for the obedience. Don't think
that because supposed case of small
pox patient don't nearly die that it is
not smallpox; they dom t all die.-Pleas-

three counts against him, one fer con-

The last issues of the Leon Journal
and Lamont Chronicle, contained legal
notices to the effect that D. j. Walker a
druggist of Lamont, had filed an appli-
cation for a permit to sell liquors in his
drug store in Lamont, Iowa. Action
was soon taken by citizens opposed to
the granting of such permit, and COM
mittee consisting of Messrs VIM. Ander-
son, r. M. Elvin and Mrs. Allie Smith
waited upon Mr.. Walker and requested
him to withdraw his application. This
occurred Friday afternoon of last week.
Nh. Walker desired until Wednesday of
this week 10 consider and consult bust
ness partners which was granted. After
consideration for portion Of this time,
MIR. Walker decided to withdraw his APP
plication as requested. We are glad
the matter has ended thus; and we hope
it is now fully apparent to all that the
great majority of the citizens of Lamont
are opposed to either an open saloon,
or the sale of the same kind of stuff over

permit Patriot.

work up a little campaign jealousy

sertion that not one Scandinavian has
been nominated on the republican

editor made that statement because
he thought such was the case but he
Is mistaken. The candidate for attor-
ney-general on the republican state
ticket is a Scandinavian and halls
from Nelson county. True, there not
many Of them on the ticket, yet at
the same time they have a representa-.

lightenment, nationality cuts no fig.
