NOTED EDITOR DIES
w. w. JunlSin, Passes Away at
Home In Fairfield.
VETERAN IOWA NEWSPAPER MAN
Had Been Connected With the Fair
field Ledger for Almost Fifty Years
-succumbed After Short Illness at
Age OF 70 Years.

Fairfield, Feb. 23-(Courier Speci-
ate editor and editor of the Fairfield
Ledger for almost firty years, William
w Junkin, after serious illness last
ing about ten days. passed away Sat
urday morning at . home of his son
Robert, at the agc2of 70 years. Mr.
Junkin had been in failing health for
the past three years, but not until ten
8 days ago was his condition considered
t serious. Funeral services were held
from the First Methodist Episcopal
church in this city this afternoon at
8 o'clock.
Born in West Virginia.
Mr.. Junkin was native of West
Virginia and was born January &c
1881. At the age of 10 years he came
to Iowa and has resided almost contin-
uously since that time in Fairfield. In
( 1853 he secured a half interest in the
Fairfield Ledger and two years later
became the sole owner.
Well Known Editor.
Among the older generation of news
paper men, perhaps, none were better
known than Mr.. Junkin. Through his
untiring energy and efficient manage
ment he made the paper with which he
was connected a power in the state.
His long connection with the one pa
per, his activity in politics and his par
ticipatlon in various organizations OF
newspapers combined to give him a
wide acquaintance while his geniality
and many noble qualities won him a
high place in the regard of those with
whom he came in contact. During the
time since he came to be the owner
OF the Ledger there has been but two
changes. one was when Ralph Robin
son. now of the Newton Journal,
bought half interest and the other
was the transfer OF the paper to G. M.
Junkin, his eldest son.
Held But One Office.
He was man of strong convictions
and writer of much force. Though
he at all times took great interest in
the politics of the state he never held
but one public office, that of Indian in
spector under the Harrison admin
stration

ia commenting on a recent church So

'.The common vulgarity Of the kissing
game has practically disappeared, but
there IS still the occasional outbreak that
calls for attention by parents and teach
ers When win girls learn that the lip Is
the portal Of the heart, to be opened only
by the man to whom she Is prepared to
give her life?n
we quite agree with the Yergennes con
temporary on the oscuiatory practice, but
id this caseit was little different, The
kisses advertised and sold were the mo-
lasses and water variety to be obtained at
any grocery or candy store. Lest the re-
port Of the alleged laxity Of the girls Of
Barre gain further credence The Times
hastens to offer this explanation.
