A new YEARS RESOLUTION

had known Gregory in the states,
He was an A No. young fellow, and
we had worked side by side for three
years a THE same desk in a little
wholesale house in Iowa. How Greg
Dry ever happened to leave Canada
and find his way to Iowa is too long
and too dull story to tell, but he
did find his way there. and soon after
he arrived we became great chums.
He sang. in the choir, made out the
bills of the concern for which we
worked, rode horseback, and had hollis.
OF the four occupations, the boils
seemed to interest him most, and no
wonder, for they were with him night
md day.
He used to back up to me and say:
Look at my neck, will you, old fell
low, and see If that spot looks like a
boil?" Usually it did.

exhibited at Kreher's meat market on
Saturday, having been trapped by the
pitch pine camp hunters, led by the
celebrated bear hunter Glenn SEQ
field. It was the second one trapped
in the last two. weeks on the Pen.
field road between the camp and
Penfeld.
It might be we'll to remark here
that Mr.. scofield is perhaps the big.
gest bear hunter in this part Of the
state, and his record in seven years
last past is twenty nine bears--more
bears than some hunters have killed
pheasants. f KS

drawers were always full of his tonics
and lotions and salves; and when any,
one pulled one of his special drawers

But all this has nothing to do with
my story.
When Gregory was called back to
Canada he made me promise to visit
him at Sutton-West some time. He
said it was the most beautiful spot in
the world, and that it had a climate
as much superior to ours here in Iowa
as gold to lead.

and he had big corbuncle on his arm.
So went.
To get to Sutton you go through
Toronto and up little branch rail-
way, and from Sutton you drive several
miles to Sutton-West along the shore
of Lake Simcoe.
Gregory met me at the station and

Windsor an Expensive Castle.

No royal castle has cost the nation
more in hard cash than that Of Wind

When George ~. announced his In
tention of making II family resi-
dence parliament granted him s. 3OO,-
900 toward it's reconstruction. For
four years the work went merrily on
under fresh grants, and the king then
took possession Of the private apart

diture, however.
BY the time William Nv. had salts
fed himself that there was nothing
more to be done the castle had swal-
lowed up close to a, million pounds.

for just the SAME reason that they like
other advertising. But when it comes to
editorial support it places the editor i'll
rather a delicate position. Support of
one candidate almost necessarily means
to fight the other fellow running for the
office,-and the difficulty is, that the
other fellow may get the nomination at
the primary-and then the editor as a
partisan will have to turn, round and
support the man for election whom he
opposed for nomination.
Just now we are running several cards
for candidates, any one Of whom we
should be pleased personally to see
nominated and elected, but we do not
know how soon we may be asked to
publish announcements for other ca;s''i;-
dates who are just as capable and
might have equal claims to nomination..
The Pioneer Express desires and in
tends to support the lominees of the
republican party, and will not try to in-
terfere with the choice of the majority,
except when candidate is so objectiona-
BILE that il we oppose him before the
primary, we will also continue the fight
after the primary, if he is nominated.
Hence, when we say editorially that a
candidate is good man for the office he
seeks, it will not ne -essarily mean with us
that there is no one else equally good
or that we desire to dictate who shall be
the nominees-but that if he is nominal
ed we shall be pleased to support him
for election.
