Coun ty Comm issioner Tuntland
while looking after a destroyed bridge
on Long Creek between Grant and
Delaware townships, the other day,
discovered the horns of what must
have been a gigantic moose. The
place where he found the relic had
been washed out by recent floods and
it is quite evident that the horns
must have been buried many years.
What remains Of them would indicate
u spread of ten feet when worn by the
mighty beast from the north. Mr..
Tuntland declined to sell the relic
but it can be seen at the County
Auditors Office.

Coroner Byrnes was called to the
northwest part of Delapre township
Tuesday morning to hold an inquest
over the body of William e. Cannon,
a resident up there for more than 30
! years. The Coroner was accompanied
by Deputy Sheriff Tucker. The evil
dence at the inquest proved that
Cannon vas last seen alive last Fri
day, and 4 neighbor seeking his help
for treatment of a sick horse. found
him dead Tuesday morning. The
body of the dead man was in a fearful
condition when found and his team
of horses were nearly starved. The
unfortunate man had separated from
his wife about IL years ago and was
living alone. He had been in the
habit of taking laudanum for years
and his neighbors think he must
have taken an overdose Friday night.
Under direction of a daughter who
lives near her fathers little home,
the body was buried at Sioux Falls.
That was Coroner Byrnes first inquest
since taking Office last January.

THE CANTON lEADE R
ARTHUR LINN,
Death OF Governor johnson.
Editor and Proprietor.

The death of this remarkable mar
Tuesday morning at 1886 closes the
career OF one Of the strongest and
most loveable characters In the north
west. The Sioux Falls Press In
speaking Of him says:
Ask any man why John A.. Johnson
became great-he was truly great
and he will find difficulty in giving an
answear. He was governor Of his
state; but many men have been
governors. He was elected as ademo-
crat when his state gave overwhelm.
ing majorities to republican candidat-
es for other offices; but others have
achieved these personal triumphs,
even in Minnesota. He championed
a number of needed political reforms
such as reduction OF railroad rates,
an anti-pass law and a permanent tax
commission; but others in all parts OF
the country have successfully urged
these same innovations. Governor
Johnson was born a poor boy and
made his way to the front by his own
resources he almost declined his first
nomination for governor because he
had no money for the cost Of the
campaign; but hundreds and thous
ands OF other poor boys have made
their way upward without at the
same time reaching that well-guarded-
inner apartment of the public's heart.
Not in what he did for himself or for
his state is to be found explanation
OF the popularity that makes his
death a national event. 1t lies in his
personality.
1t is written of John A. Johnson
that In his campaign he rarely got the
ear OF a voter without making him a
supporter. The citizens Of Minnesota
who net him and heard him speak
evidently felt that same personality
which has appealed to hundreds of
thousands of men and woman who
have never seer him. That persona
lily, strong ana appealing as it was,
is impossible of analysis. 1t does not
describe him to say that he was kindly
but firm, courageous but tender,
adr0it but honest. 1t must simply
be said that he was blessed with one
of those unusual combinations of
traits and virtues that now and then
mark individuals as superior to the
rest. 1t is just for this reason that
we believe johnson was more Lincoln
esque than any other man Of this day.
He had that are faculty, enjoyed also
by Lincoln, of doing an unpopular
thing without losing the confidence
of the public.
The death Of Governor Johnson at
this time is inexpressibly sad. His
prospects were charging at his very
feet. His friends had every reason to
believe that at the next opportunity
his party would declare him its nation
al leader. Every man Is entitled to
enjoy the heritage his endeavor and
his character have made for him,
1t is little less than tragic when
d cath takes it from him.

Sunday privilege revocation can be
evaded successfully by some of the
subterfuges mentioned. There is good
reason to believe, however, that no
holder of a liquor license which is eff
fective on week days will go contrary
to the wishes of the members of the
Board as far as the enforcement of
the Sunday privilege is concerned.
The Board has absolute power to
revoke licenses at its discretion and
so far there has been no Indication
that it will countenance any attempts
to minimize the intention of revoking
the Sunday privilege of liquor selling
from all hotels. cafes and restaurants.

To prevent machine-made scallops on
lingerie or. towels from fraying when they
are laundered go over them with a but
tonhoie stitch, putting the needle about
halfway down from the top of the seal
lop to the place where the needle original
ly went in. Only every three or four
stitches need to be worked into and the
double buttonholing gives them extra
strength. Some persons go over hand
made scaliops in this way because Of the
added strength. On flannel worked with
silk the already worked scallops are some
times buttonholed over in this way and an
extra stitch is taken in the top OF every
other stitch, which makes a sort of picot
