Should any of the many who
are proving up on homesteads feel
that they and they alone, could
serve their fellow men by being
elected orappointed to a public Of
fee, let their minds be at rest for
here is a case where two things
can be done at once. The ruling
is quoted below.
A homesteader will be excused
from residing upon the land cover
ed by his entry, if, after making
his entry in good faith and estab-
fishing his actual residence there
on to the exclusion of a home else
where, he is elected o. appointed
to either a county, state or federal
Office which requires him to reside
away from the land in order to
discharge the bona fde duties Of
such Office, but he must continue
the necessary cultivation and i'm
provements.

Again we are up against the fer
~ proposition and the poor excuse
ofa boat that is now being used as
q ferry is no good and we cannot
blame the people who patronise
1t for kicking. The boat in opera
ton here last summer was taken
to South Dakota this spring and
the old cable ferry was installed,
which never gave satisfaction and
has proven much worse this sea-
son. 1t generally takes from two
to three hours to Cross and those
on board have to work their way
over and pay for passage besides.
The citizens of Washburn are
working hard to secure a boat that
will be satisfactory and give good
service, but this takes time. There
is at the present time a good open
ing for some one with a good ferry
boat, one that will be able to make
trips in all kinds of weather, and
there is good money in it for an
outfit of this kind.

This appeal is indicted originally
by a publisher who saw DR.. Byers
only once, has no personal interest
in his quest other than the bond
of sympathy that makes the world
akin, and is inspired from the be-
lief that the lost boy can only be
found through the united efforts
of the country press of which he
is proud to be a member. His re-
covery will be q triumph in adver-,
Using and no editor whose heart
is placed right will refuse this ap-
peal. Remember, it may be your
child next! nj
The following is a description Of
the lost boy.
Richmond Byers, if alive, was
six years old last July, is of light
complexion, has gray eyes, left eye
noticeably crossed, has a. small V
shaped nick in edge Of left ear, has
has a sharp chin and a narrow pro-
jecting forehead. He is rather
small for his age and is unusually
bright and intelligent, taking after
a boy much older.
DR.. Byers has searched among
the rowing bands that frequent the
United States and believes that his
son can be found among travelling
junk dealers, so called horse trad
ers or movers, He does not think
the boy was stolen by genuine
gypsies. He thinks he was taken
by q wandering band that used
him for the purpose Of begging in
towns along the route.-New Har-
mony, lind Times.

Appeal for Lost Child.

Editors Appeal for Lost Child.
If the editor of every paper in
the Central West will publish
these lines there is no question
but what d.. s. L. Byers of Steel.
eyville, Ind, will recover his little
son who was stolen from his home
one year ago last May. Dr.. Byers
has spent his entire resources in
search. for his child and unless the
big hearted members of the press
come to his assistance his son may
grow up an outlaw an outcast
among the lowest people the earth.
It is a cause that should appeal
to everyone and no father, readiug
these items, can do SO without a
quickening of the heart and SYM
pathetic throb. It is believed that
if this article is reprinted in the
newspapers it will form an endless
chain that uncover the boys CEN
cealment and return him to his
distracted parents. In doing this
the profession of journalism will
be fulfilling one of its highest desti-
MES.
Publishers whose circulations
touch the Wabash, Ohio and Mis-
sissippi valleys are especially re-
quested to reproduce this story of
the lost child as Dr.. Byers believes
his boy is now on some houseboat
waiting to take the road this
spring. There is a reward of $500
awaiting any information that will
lead to the boys recovery. No
questions will be asked and if the
abductor himself would not be
molested. The bereaved parents
are heart broken with grief and
want their child. f each journal
will reprint these lines, they will
travel to every exchange table in
the United States and bring back
to d wretched home, q child who is
no doubt suffering with cold, unfea
and wretched to q degree. Think
Of what your own feelings would
[be under similar drcunstancesl
