THIS OUGHT TO SETTLE IT.

Last week many of the machine pa
pers of the state printed a dispatch
from Washington claiming the de-
partment had cancelled the Crawford
land patents. The truth is there new
er were any patents. A filing made
by Mr.. Crawford was cancelled upon
his own statement that he had aban-
doned his intention of making furth-
er residence upon or intent to make
proof of claim. The clerk who gave
out the misinformation from the de-
partment deliberately lied when he
stated the patents were cancelled,
and the lie was intentional because
there was no patent, or patents, upon
which to base the story.
The following given out by one in
authority ought to settle the matter:
........... ..............
"The filings made by Gov. Craw
ford and others adjacent to this
ranch all expired and were can
celled for failure to follow them
up and perfect the necessary
showing long before anybody
though of making charges against
Gov. Crawford. =" Judge Balling-
er, commissioner of the general
land office at Washington, d. G. :.

Nonpareil Still in the Lead

The New Nonpareil Company of
Council Bluffs, Iowa, is one of the
three biggest business institutions in
that city. The company employs an
average of one hundred people the
year round and the pay roll of the
concern exceeds that of any other con-
Germ in Council Bluffs. Two regular
editions of the paper are published
daily. one in the morning and one in
the evening, and separate stafts are
employed in the publication of each
edition. The establishment of the
evening edition on May /, 1906. in
volved the necessity of employing
thirty additional people and increased
the pay roll of that concern 80 l-3 per
cent: For the people of Council
Bluffs and western Iowa no paper ap.
proaches the Daily Nonpareil in in
terest and usefulness. With its two
daily editions it can reach the people
of this vicinity quicker than any other
paper published, and the Nonpareil
has long ago established a reputation
for accurate and reliable news. 1t is
the ideal family newspaper of the
state of Iowa, a paper that no farmer
can afford to be without.

If none but poet wrote verses
And none but an artist should
paint;
If no one did aught, but a master,
And effort, in weakness, should

If nothing could have a beginning,
But was finished as soon as begun
Tell me, truly would life be worth
living,
Were there never victory won?
