Probate Judge.

When the people desire to support a
man who is better qualified than con-
vention candidate then the old story is
told that the Independent candidate has
been bought-only brought out to di-
vide the vote. Citizens: B. C. Arnold
the Independent candidate for Probate
Judge will surely be elected if the peo-
pie stay by their promises that have
been given to him. The people over
the county irrespective of party are
taking an active interest in the matter
of the Office of Probate Judge, which is
the most important one in the county,
but is traded about in convention as
though it was unworthy of consider
alton, and men are nominated without
thought of their qualifications. If
men of no ability are elected the fut-
ure will develop the seriousness of the
error. The business that passes thro'
this Office requires a a man of ability
and mature years to properly take care
of it. livery citizen should give his
| suffrage to the man that is capable and
candidate whose competency has
never been questioned you will have an
opportunity to vote for November 9th,
that of B. C. Arnold for Probate
Judge.
Now don't forget that when you &c
into the booth. you are allowed five
minutes by law in which to mark your
ballot. Under the new election law the
voter may mark in the circle to show
his politics, and then he may scratch
his ticket by voting for the candidates
on other tickets. You will find B. C.
Arnold's name on the Independent tick
ct for Probate Judge and also square
to the right Of his name; mark you1
cross in the square and your vote will
be for man which will be tribute to
his worth, ability and fitness for this
honorable position, that of Probate
Judge.

Who Pays Advertising BiIIs7

An unknown exchange asks: ''Did
you ever think about it? Who pays
for the advertising of merchants and
other business men? Not the adver-
tiser for the cost is returned to him
two-fold in increased profits. Not the
purchaser, for he buys cheaper from
the advertiser and has better assort-
ment and fresher goods to select from.
Who then, really pays the advertising
bills? The non-advertiser, of course
A just proportion of the money he loses
by his lack of initiative and enterprise
finds way eventually to the printer, to
advance the cause of education and the
interests of the community. Who pays
for that advertising which attracts the
people of this town to other towns?
The home merchant not only loses that
trade, but in that loss pays for the
other fellows advertising. Isn't ii
plain? The ''store keeper" is a relic
of the past; the merchant is an active
being of today"

it. Wake up people!

4nastasia Murphy Dead.

Word was received on Monday from
Editor Freese at Albany, N. Y. that he
has found records of the death of the
late VIM. Dalton's sister after two
weeks of persistent searching of the
old city directories and church and city
records in Albany, Troy and other cities
in New York state. Particulars state
as follows:
''She went to Albany in 1854 and was
married to Mr.. Murphy; she was a
cook and her husband moulder in an
iron works and later a stone mason.
They went to Troy and other places in
that part of New York. Records show
that they had several children who all
married. Murphy died in 1892 and his
wife then moved back to Albany and
again became a restaurant cook. She
soon took to drinking and lived in the
slum part of the city with other old
cronies. She was first picked up by
the police Jan. 10, 1901 and sent to
Aims House, the records showing she
was 50 widow, aged about "a, born in
Ireland; Incorporate habits; Catholic;
cook by occupation; regarded as feeble
minded" She stayed in the Aims
House for eighteen weeks and then ran
away. She was picked up again June
18th and again Aug. I'd 1902, each time
running away. She was picked up and
sent to the Aims House for the fourth
time and died there Sept. %, 1905 of
cerebel apoplexy. She was buried in ST.
AIMS Catholic cemetery.
Thus far Mr.. Freese has devoted no
time to searching for her children, or
grandchildren if there are any, or the
half brother and sister who were born
after VIM. Dalton left home. Their
names were not mentioned in the will,
but it was claimed at the hearing of the
will that it was tBilly's" intention tc
leave them something.
Now the editor had better come home
and let the people of this vicinity have
the benefit of the dalton Arena" the
new opera house to be erected in Hays
at the last request of the deceased Mr.
Dalton, instead of putting the estate tt
the great expense of searching fol
other possible and distant relative:
who have, in all probability, ''gone OF
before"

plainville and Hoys break even.

The honors of athletic contests be-
tween the High Schools of this city and
Plainville at the latter place last Satur-
day were evenly divided. Plainville
won the foot ball game by score of
12-0. The Rocks county athletes out
weighed our boys about ten pounds to
the man and they were able to gain
considerable ground owing to their
greater heft. Westbrook drop-kicked
for difficult field goal only missing by
about yard.
The basket ball was a walk-a-way
for the town girls who out-classed the
buxom lassies of Plainville to the tune
of 100.
Plainville will return the games in a
couple of weeks on the High School
