Carving Consea|ed Weapons,

The Law.

Inc L8Ws
every person not being conseryator OF
the peace entitled or required TO carry such
weapon as part OF his official equipment
and not carrying such weapon, as reasona.
bic prccaution, against apprehended danger
or who is not an officer or conservator of the
peace of other State, temporarily sojourning
in this State, or railway special agent, who
shall wear or carry any pistol, dirk or bowie
knife, slung shot, billy, sand bag, metal
knuckles, razor or any other dangerous or
deadly weapon, of any kind whatsoever
(penknives excepted) concealed upon or
about his person, and every person who shall
carry or wear any such weapon openly with
the intent or purpose of injuring any person
in an unlawful manner, and not for any
proper purpose of self protection, shall upon
conviction thereof 0e fined not more than
81 900 or be imprisoned not more than two
years in jail or in the House OF Correction;
and the Court or jury before whom any such
case may be tried shall in all cases have the
right to Judge of the reasonableness OF the
carrying of any such weapon and OF the
proper occasion therefore, upon satisfactory
proof; and in case upon conviction OF any
offender, the court. in view of the evidence,
shall be of the opinion that such weapon
was carried with the deliberate purpose Of
inficting grievous and unlawful injury to
the life or person of another, it shall in that
case be the duty of the court to impose the
highest sentence of imprisonment herein be-
fore prescribed"
We are called on to chronicle the death Of
a young man of this community; self inflict
ed, and the shooting by him Of two young
girls, all because Of the deadly weapon car
Iied concealed about the person of this
young man.
Almost simultaneously with the tragedy
above, there was about to be another at
Creagerstown; this between two young men
of the community. One drew pistol, snap
ped it, luckily it failed to explode the cart
ridge.
Here we can point to two cases where, if
no such weapons had been on their person,
no harm, no doubt, would have come II is
a most deplorablc thing that this habit can
not bc broken up. Boys and young men
seem TO think it manly to carry pistol.
Passion nearly always discloscs the guilty
ones, and we do sincerely hope that the
court will give the full penalty to the first
person that comes before them found guilty
of this perniclous practice.
Heretofore this law has been looked upon
lightly, if not disregarded altogether. Let
us have some penalties. That will break it
up sooner than anything else. Grand juries
have called attention to this in their reports,
but still the pistols are carried, and will be,
until VIC have some severe penalty imposed
upon those who will persist in violating the
law

Assessors Must Make Extra Books

Attorney General Mullan Friday sent
to Auditor of State Carroll an opinion
to the effect that township assessors are
required by the law to make duplicates
of their books for the use of the town
ship clerks in making list of the prop
erty owners for the use of the superin-
tendents of roads.
The assessors always have made cop
les of their books for this purpose, but
recently movement was started to dis
continue the work on the theory that it
was labor of love and that the law was
not broad enough to require them to do
it, especially since the new road law
went into effect, requiring payment of
road taxes in clsh.
Several township clerks appealed to
the auditor of state as to the official
Interpretation of the law in this respect
with the result that he referred the
matter to the attorney general, who
Friday handed the auditor an opinion.
In this opinion he held that the asses
sors must continue to furnish the clerk
with duplicates referred to.
1t is matter affecting every one of
the 1000 townships of the state.

BIG SUM FOR EAR OF CORN.
State Fair Management Will pa,
$50 For Best one Shown.

Fifty dollars is fabulous price to
pay for one ear of corn, but that is the
amount of the prize which will be
awarded to the exhibitor of the best
ear of corn on exhibit at the coming
Iowa state fair. A similar prize offered
last year created much interest through
out the state, the premium awarded to
Herman Tohman, of West Point, Lee
county, on an ear of corn which is
now on exhibition in the rooms of the
department of agriculture at the state
capitol. Fifty dollars is also offered
for the best ten ears, with an additional
S25 to the exhibit scoring second. For
the best artistic display of corn prem
iums to the amount of $50 are offered
and $3.50 for the best artistic display of
grains and grass. In addition to those
prizes offered on individual displays
other premiums are offered on agricul-
ture products too numerous to mention.
There is total of 1915 offered in prizes
for county exhibits. The state is
divided into three districts for the
awarding of county exhibit prizes,
5000 being offered in each district with
an additional S25 to the exhibit from
each district scoring the highest.
AS this isa liberal increase in the
premiums offered for the display which
is one of the most interesting and
educational at the fair, it is expected
that great many counties will COM
plete for these prizes.
