the convention selected as their
candidate for that position
EVERETT GAMETT, of Pisgah,
ia young man of education and
ability, and possessing eminent
qualifications for the position,
and will, if elected, serve the
people of Harrison county with
credit to himself and honor to
the people of the county.
For Supervisor of Dist. No. 2,
the convention placed in nomi-
nation for that position
FRANK P. CARLISLE, of
Raglan Township. No better
man could have been selected
for Supervisor. He comes from
the right location, is an ener-
getic farmer and business man,
educated, honest, and will, if
elected, bring to the position a
business experience valuable to
the county.
For County Auditor, the con-
vention selected
FRED CROMIE, of Woodbine,
but we understand he has de-
clined, as he is now nearing the
close of his collegiate course,
and therefore could not make
the sacrifice to make either the
canvass, or serve in the office if
elected. This fact, unless some
other candidate is selected, will
leave Mr.. Atkins, the republic
can candidate, a "walk away"
This is our ticket-one of the
best ever placed before the peo-
pie of the county, and worthy
to be elected by a large major
ity.

Cur Candidates.

AS the election day approaches
it becomes important that the
voters who will be called upon
to cast their votes for the men
of their choice for the different
positions as county officers for
the ensuing terms, we take this
opportunity to speak of the
candidates selected by the dem
ocratic county convention, and
can assure the people that the
work of a convention was never
better or more satisfactorily
performed. Our candidate for
County Recorder is
GALE MILLS, Of Logan,
a young man Of very fire
ability, good moral character,
and possesses the qualification
necessary to make a very ac-
ceptable County Recorder, and
If elected to that responsible po-
sition, the voters of Harrison
county will have no cause to re-
gret the choice they have made
for that office. We bespeak for
him a liberal vote, and assure
all that their confidence will not
be misplaced.
C. r. BOLTER, of Logan,
for County Attorney, is the
right man in the right place
A student of the law under his
distinguished father, the late
Hon. L. r. Bolter, and a lawyer
of years of experience in the
practice Of his profession, with

the vote of the state cast 100000
votes more than in 1900, thus
showing a falling off of $1,000 in
the republican vote in Maine,
and that too after a hotly con-
tested canvass. If the old say
ing: "As goes Maine so goes
the Unlon,' holds good, then
Parker and Davis will sweep
the country, for the same gain
in all the States will elect the
Democratic ticket by a large
majority.
The Mefferd family, through
their representative, E. Meferd,
extends challenge to the Tup-
pers to play another family
game of base ball as soon as
they recover from the Upper
Purcell game. Mr.. Mefferd
was after the Tuppers before
they took on the Purcell game,
but was a few minutes late in
reaching them. Now he insists
on game. Tupper having
boldly challenged any and every
family that could play ball, we
consider him under obligations
to give each one that challenges
a game. In this way we may
keep the national game going
for several weeks to come, as
we know of other punches of
family baseballists who are
camping on Tup's trail. Wood

accepted at once. After pass
ing around several blocks of
the town at varying rates of
speed he was returned safe and
sound to his office. 1t was a
first experience in an automo-
bile and was a decidedly pleas
ant one and which will be re-
peated if opportunity offers.
1t is no wonder that there is an
automobile craze. The motion
is as smooth as in a boat and
can be adjusted to such speed
as is most pleasant to the rider.

mented.

The Tines Democrat, April 20,
contains the following cOmpli-
mentary mention of little Lafa-
yette girl, reproduced from
Leslie's Weekly.
Miss Eva Mouton of Lafayette,
La, is a little musical prodigy
whose talent deserves notice
beyond the borders of her native
State. Miss MOutOn is only nine
years of age. At all the concerts
given in her home town she is a
PARTICIPANT, and were she not
visible when performing, it
would be easy to believe that a
young woman of eighteen or
twenty was playing Chopin'S
waltzeS and nOcturneS with
beautiful expression and execu-
ton. Her appreciation of her
favOrite composer, Chopin, was
manifested almost before she
could talk. Eva is the daughter
of Judge Julien Mouton, whose
family is one of the most disting-
uished in the State. The first
MOutOn that went to Louisiana
was one of the Acadian eXiles
from Nova Scotia. Albert. he
could neither read nor write,
was a man of brains, and lived to
'amass a large fortune in slaves
and land. He was one of the
founders of the town of Lafa-
yette, and gave generously of his
lands for public buildings. One
of his descendants was a gen
eral in the Confederate army,
and another was governor and
afterward senator of the State.
On the maternal size little Miss
MOutOn is of Castilian descent,
as her fair beauty easily denotes.

tai number OF teachers in these dis
tricts was 1921. indicating that 1920
districts changed teachers during the
year Dividing the whole amount OF
money paid ungraded school teachers
which was 5000. 527.1O b. 1867. the
number of districts. gives the average
paid for teaching for each district as
S2S3.s3.
There are 81 counties in Illinois in
which one or more teachers worked last
year for less than s25 month. IL is
quite probable that some of the schools
in these districts fall little short of
being first class. There were 6,243
teachers in Illinois last school year who
worked for less than $40 a month.
Forty is altogether too small pay for
a competent teacher. IL IS less than a
carpenter. or a painter. or a tailor
can make by just about half. and helps
account for the fact that there were
$50 fewer men and So more women in
the schools last year than two years
ago while the net increase in the whole
number Of teachers was but 2S5. II
helps account. also. for the fact that
there is a great scarcity of qualified
teachers. But there is an apparent dis
position, in the country especially. to-
pay better wages whenever good serv-
ice can be guaranteed. Indeed. il is be
coming quite evident that the wages of
