LET THE FIGURES TALK.

Recently The Dawson News
published the receipts of its
rural routes for the past year,
and was disposed TO boast a lit
tie as to the good showing made.
Our postmaster says the rural
routes going out of Cuthbert
make better showing than
do those of Terrell.-Cuthbert
Leader.
If the CuraI mail business out of
Cuthbert is larger than that at Daw-
son there is something more than
usual doing over there, and we want
to offer our sincere congratulations
We are glad to see our neighbors
waking up. hustling and prospecting
But the fact is The News has no.
published the receipts of its rura
routes for the past year" Recently
we did print the amount of the
money orders-and money orders
alone-soId on the rural routes go
ing out of Dawson, and it aggregated
$13,774. About the same time, i
our memory is not greatly at fault
we read either in The Leader or on
other Cuthbert contemporary an iten
giving the amount of money order
sold by the Outhbert routes, and j
was less by twO-thirds or more tina
that of the Dawson routes.
Anyway, this is a matter of figure.
and we suggest to our friend an
neighbor that he let them talk fc
him.

Colonel Tapp has met in conven-

himself for president as the candi-

candidates for president and one for

MAY BE TRUE AND NOT TRUE

Cuthbert's four routes claim
to have done more money order
business than Dawson's routes.
and Shellman's routes have
bought over 5000 worth more
than Cuthbert's. We can't say
whether Terrell people are drink
ing less liquor than Randolph
people, or that Terrell people
are patrOniZing home merchants
in other lines of goods better
than the people in Randolph
Shellman Sun.
We are not prepared to dispute
the intimation that the people OF
Terrell are drinking less whiskey
and patrOnizing home merchants in
other lines of goods better than
those of Randolph. In fact, to keeI
down an argument we will concede
that this is true. But there is nc
evidence that the rural money order
business at Cuthbert is larger than
that at Dawson. On the contrary
the figures we have seen show that
the volume of this business there
the past year was but little more
than half what it was at Dawson

The Lumpkin council are wise old
politicians, and know how to make
themselves solid with their constit-
uents. When the dispensary in that
town went out of business in August
of last year a quantity of whiskey
was left on hand, and last week
these astute officials hit upon the
happy plan of disposing Of it by
distribution among the citizens.
Accordingly, the inhabitants of the
drougth-stricken village presented
themselves with TASKS to receive
their share of rare old rye.

SEWER MAY coNTAMlNATE MILK
Or. DiIIer Debating Over Whether or
Not He Will Issue Certificate.


DR. L. L. Diller, city milk and meat
inspector, has found three more cases
Of tuberculosis in milk cows, and as
a result of conditions surrounding the
place where one of the cows is kept,
may decide not to issue certificate
for the animals in the herd as yet
uninfected.
G. w. Munroe, I'll North Center
street, is the owner for whom no GER
tif1cate may be issued. G. H. johnson,
4O7 West Nevada street. has two cows
that are afflicted with tuberculosis.
The fact that the soldiers home sewer
empties into the river just back of the
Munroe barn is the cause of all the
trouble.
The Munroe COW has only been off
the range three months, and DR.. Diller
considers that the chances are greatly
in favor of the animal having con-
tracted tuberculosis since 1t became
the property of Mr.. .Munroe, and that
it became infected by drinking water
that was contaminated because Of the
nearness to the sewer.
Out of 400 cows inspected only ten
have been found to be afflicted with
tuberculosis. This is a very crafty
ing showing. A report for the quarter
will be filed by DR.. Diller before the
board of health at the regular April
meeting.

has been fixed at $4,000, and it was said
today that his attorney would probably
be able to secure his release on salts
factory bonds within day or two.
The charges against Johnson are
perjury, receiving deposits for an in
solvent bank, embezzlement, and MAX
ing false entries in the banks books.
Johnson furnished four bonds, of to-
tai Of $4,000 for the four charges. The
bond for each of the charges Of per-

for the other two charges $500 each

UNWORTHY AFFAIRS.
Evangelist Declares People Pay Too
Hiqh a Price for What They Get.

Evangelist Declares People Pay Too
High Price for What They Get.
DR.. Buckner preached last night at
the Methodist church on Unworthy
Affairs using as an Illustration Jep-
thall's foolish and unnecessary vow.
An altar is that which receives the
sacrifice, and stands for the cause rep
resented. There are many people VINO
pay too high a price for what they get
they put upon the altar a sacrifice
which is worth more than the altar.
The speaker said: There is the al
tar of money greed, unworthy of the
great sacrifices placed upon 1t. Some
will steal, rob and even commit muir
der for god others will engage In
wrongful business on the same &C
count, as the saloon keepers, who are
worse than the highway robber, for he
can take only life and money, being
powerless to take away character and
soul. Even those engaged In strictly
honorable business frequently pay too
high a price on the altar of money,
making it supreme in their lives.
Amusement is another unworthy al
tar, receiving far more from it votaries
than it is worth. The excuses of an
cient Rome, in the matter Of amuse-
ment, are in point, yet we appear to be
travelling on the same road. Prize
fights, wrestling matches, Sunday base
ball games, Sunday railroad excursions,
Sabbath dissertations Of all kinds,
dancing, theaters and other forms of
amusements-how much of time, of
physical life, and spiritual life are sac
rif1ced on these unworthy affairs? Then,
there is the altar Of strong drink, ex-
acting it's deadly toll of human life and
character.
"There is one altar which God con-
sidered worthy, the altar Of the saliva
ton Of the race. Upon what affairs are
we sacrificing our lives. on unworthy
affairs, or on that altar and for that
cause for which Christ died?"
The subject tonight will be "The
House We Live In"

Rev. r. Harmon Potter, husband of
Jennie Cilchrist, a former MARSHALL
town girl, and daughter Of Mrs. Ida
Gilchrist, 705 West Main street, is
sought as pastor by one of the larg-
est Congregational churches Of the

ton he will receive a salary Of $4,000

The Hartford Courant announces the
efforts that are being made on the
part Of the Boston church to secure
Mr.. Potter's services, and says:

RECEIVER SELLS EVERYTHING
Lot Next to Bank Building Bought by
Sellers G. Dawson-sales Made at
Actual Appraised Value, $4,000 for
Bank and 500 for Adjoining Lot
New Bank in Prospect.

Receiver A. A. Moore, of the Green
Mountain Savings bank, sold Wednes-
DAY afternoon the property of the bank
as directed by an order of the district
all assets in an effort to meet its obli-
cations. The bank building and its
fixtures were sold for $500 to Presi-
dent A. Il. Balch, of the MarshalltoWn
State bank, and Sellers & Dawson, of
Green Mountain purchased the lots adj
joining for s100. Both sales were ex-
actly at the appraised values.
There was a large crowd present at
the sale, and included were several
prospective buyers from this city,
Gladbrook and Beaman. Mr.. Moore
announced that, while bids would be
received on the property, he would
consider no sale lower than the amount
fixed by the appraisement. This had
tendency to stop the bidding, and
Mr.. Balcn, who started the bank build
ing at $4,000, was the only bidder.
Sellers & Dawson had leased the lot
adjoining and erected thereon q frame
building used as a barber shop. They
bought in the lot at private sale before
the bank building was sold, in order to
protect their own interests.
New Bank is Assured.
Green, Mountain men say that a new
bank for the town is assured just as
soon as the present receivership is
wound up. Farmers of the community,
and others interested, including stock
holders Of the old bank, expect to or
ganize and incorporate a new bank
whenever the receiver is discharged.
The lines of organization talked of
are similar to those in existence in
the county fair association, in which
the stockholders from the country con-
troll the policy.

had twenty five years experience in

He has been connected for several
years with various departments Of the

Mr.. Greene, speaking for himself and
Mr.. Hatcher, said that the sale was
made because he and Mr.. Hatcher were

who prefer to occupy their time and
attention in other directions.

have made many friends and feel
more than an ordinary desire for the
future success Of The Reflector. We
can very safely say that in turning the
property over to Mr.. Thompson he
will find the very best wishes of this
community greeting him.
