The town of Foxl,ome in Wilkin

it had qualified electors, for super

attorney declared the election void
Mushman, the incumbent, was
opposed by Cudd, and had all the

have been elected by a majority of

The Breckenridge city council
was obliged to turn down an appli-
cation for liquor license, because
the village once went dry, and for
that reason cannot have more than
one saloon for every 500 inhabit-
ants, in accordance with state law
which went into effect last week.
So deeply were the members moved
by this inability to license another
asylum for free American citizens
that they adjourned without doing
any work. It will no doubt prove
shocking news to the legislature to
hear that ONE town in the state
really has to suffer from this law,
this brilliant baby-rattle piece of
legislation handed the baby, the
people, when it cried for county op-
tion!
The council is considering the ad-
visibility of having all liquor
licenses issued by the city expire
simultaneously instead of having
them struggling along thru every

been suggested as the most conven-

The Price Of Genius.
From the Atlantic Monthly.

From the Atlantic Mopthiy.
To be a pioneer in thought is to stand
alone with nature, not for few minutes,
but for life. The isolateness Of the few
great minds of each generation Of men
is utterly undreamed Of for want Of un-
derstanding, by those about them Yet
think what; it is to pass ones days in a
thought-world where the thinker roams
alone; to grapple with problems the very
terms of which are beyond ordinary COM
prehension, and the solution appreciated
only In years to come; to contemplate in
lonely ecstasy, after still ionelier despair
the revelation that comes with months
and more of pondering. When some ono
asked Newton how he came to make his
wonderful discoveries. he replied: Sim
ply by always thinking about them.'
Consider kepler toiling year after year

the planets motions by general law.

pothesis after hypothesis aside as he
found 1t would not work, until at last
after almost inconceivable toll, he hit
upon the one that would.
AS ii this loneliness by nature were not
enough, il must needs be accentuated by
man. For he rises in such cases In chorus
to condemn. Consider Darwin, in patient
study. testing the working out of natural
selection and adding fact to fact. only to
have the whole denounced as ridiculously
absurd. Think you the denunciations of
the master while living are wholly COM
pensated by the plaudits after he is dead?
The loneliness OF greatness is the price
