The Eagle Grove Eagle argues that
the need of a primary, when there is
any need, is local. 1T does not apply
at all to state matters" 1t asserts,
"and when a county has adopted the
primary all need of a state primary is
avoided" The Eagle points out that
primary has been provided for the
only county in Iowa containing large
city, with its consequent corruption,
and it expresses its opinion that the
present optional law as to the other
counties should be permitted to stand.

Dr. Sothard is responsible for this gratifying bit of news. At a medical banquet recently held in Philadelphia, two hundred military surgeons used for their drink nothing stronger than Alp polinaris water, and that the Ma tional Medical Association re- gently gathered in banqnets, numbering thirteen hundred, and not one drop of intoxicating drinks. were served. Verify, the day for which the temperance hosts have worked and prayed will surely come, perhaps sooner than we think.

 Mir. Dodson has been d member of the K. Of r. since March 70. 1S99, and Is Past Chancellor. He has been q member of the local Masonic Lodge since July 26, 1901. and Is now Worshipful Master of tile lodge. May 28, 1890, he united with the Baptist Church and Is still a member of that body.
 AIr. Dodson attended the public schools of Neosho. Mo, but 1t was IT the pratieal affairs of life that he received most of his edu- cation. He iS thoroughly con- versant with the duties of post master, and that he will make model official is the prediction of his friends.

Miss Cora Thompson. who was the efficient helper of her father during his administration of the office. has been retained as clerk.

Early in the year 1888 lie moved with his pa rents to Washington County, and settled on d tract of land two and one-half miles southwest of Dur ham, on the waters of White River. Here on this quarter sec ton of land he was raised to man, hood, helping to clear up the land. which was heavily timber ed. When eight years of age he entered the free school which was supported from the sale of corn, wheat and oats raised on sixteenth section of land donated by the government for school purposes in the township.

Walter F DodsoH, the new postmaster, is al excellent young man and has the confidence of the business community. r or nearly eight years he has been in the post office as assistant, and by his uniform courtesy and kindness has won the good will and respect of all, and the man. tie of Postmaster Thompson could not have been more worth fly bestowed.
 Mir. Dodson was born at Neo- sho, Mo-, October q, 1872, being the youngest of family of six children, but as he IS a little bit particular about his age the l young ladies can all accept the assurance of The News that he doesn't look near so old as the date would indicate. His par ents, s. NJ. and C. Dodson, came to Arkansas III the year 1885, and located at Van Buren, where they resided two years. They then moved to Fayetteville. and after a residence there of about two yee ers, located west of Spring. dale. \ It was here in September, 1893, that MT. Dodson's father died. Later on the family moved to town and June Is, 1898, the subject of this sketch entered up- on his duties as clerk in the post office, position he continued to

 Mr. Thompson is q member of the Grand Army of the Republic. Masonic and l. Q. c. F. fratern- ities. He was mustered into Whorton Post No. 24. c. \. K at Huntsville about the year 1870. and later transferred to Hugh Mcdaniel Post No. 60 at St. Paul. From there lis membership was transferred to l.. $ Grant Post No. 34 at SPringdale where he remained un- til this post was dissolved. Later he assisted in organizing K. B.

 In fS64 he was made Mason by Bellepoint Lodge No. 2o at Fort Smith, and Royal Arch Mason by the Huntsville Lodge II the 70's. He was ole of the charter members of Solomon Lodge No. 295 at St. Paul. Was its seere- tary for eight years. and has filed every position III the subor- dinate lodge. from doorkeeper ID.
 He joined the I. Q. Q. F. lodge at Fort Smith about the same year he joined the Masons.
 Thus m as few words as t can oomprehensively be told are the principal events in the life of Judge Thompson. While He is nearing the age of 70 years he Is still active and vigorous, both in n1nd and body, and The News trusts that many more years may come and go before the final chapter marking the close of his life shall be written. Judge Thompson has aeceptably dis charged every duty that has de- volved upon him in whatever ca pacity. We do not mean by this that he has at all times pleased everybody. In such d long and varied career that would be impossible in any one. But We mean in the various pub lie positions which he has held there has been DO taint of saspie- ion attached to his conduct. and after serving as postmaster of Springda1e eight and half years he retires with clear record and the good wishes of q host of friends
