Hon. G. H. Polk and r. E. Gun
ton went to Jefferson City Sunday.
H. A. Nall went up Tuesday. Art.
is about to land a $500 clerkship
under the new Secretary of State.
If he is successful it will be the
first time Iron county has had a
representative in the departments
at Jefferson City. Mr.. Gunton is
a candidate for enrolling clerk OF
the State Senate. We trust that
they will both be successful.
Stuart Hardy, who has been sick
for some time, died at the home OF
j. o. French, on Third street, Sat-
urday night. Mr.. Hardy, was the
eldest son of D. Hardy, who was
for years superintendent OF the Iron
Mountain railroad. Stuart had a
host of friends here, as he made
this city his home for years, being
at the time train dispatcher. The
sympathy of every body goes out
to the dear ones left behind in
their sad bereavement.-De Soto Re-
publican.
