BARRIERS POLES.

Each trade or profession has its own
vcxing questions, either as to some maios
or minor feature connected with it. and
the ancient and honorable profession of
BARRIERS is not exempt from the general
rule. Like all other lines of business. or
work, they are organized, and. their as
sociations meet periodically to discuss mat
tiers affecting them. One of the knotticst
questions to attract their attention at the
convention which is being held in At
lantic City is whether to retain the striped
pole as the business sign or not The
red and white stripes are the symbol of
blood and bandages, and hence are taken
by some as sinister reflection on the pro-
fession, as if indicating the place where
one has chance to be bled so copiously
as to require bandaging. On the other
hand, the sign is insisted on by some. ON
the ground that it dates from the time
when BARRIERS were called upon to per-
form minor surgical operations such as
bleeding (which necessarily required
bandaging), which until times quite re-
cent was looked upon as prime remedy
for many evils; on this ground the red
and white sign possesses historical sig
ni6cance held in reverence by many. But
IN spite or opr great .veneration for the
traditions of antiquity, we think that the
anti-sign people have the better of thu
argument. Bleeding as therapeutic
remedy is not regarded favorably by
the medical profession; at any rate the
public is now held by physicians when
ever phlebotomy is indicated and for
other purposes when it is desired to re-
lieve suffering mankind of plethora in

latter get ootf with a scratch, but the
bleeding in this instance does not require

answers the purpose better. They are
sometimes required to make two hairs

OBITUARY.
MITCHELL

Alice S. J. Booth was born in New
Oregon township, this county, March
2, 1856. She was the tenth child of
Moses and Louisa Booth.
She was married, April 26, 1879. to
Myron Orlando Mitchell, and to them
two children were born, Frank Myron,
who now resides at Seattle, WASH.
and Leslie Orlando, who still remains
at home.
Mrs. Mitchell was converted under
the evangelistic labors of Mrs. Cald-
we'll 81 years ago, and joined the M. E.
church OF which she was a member
when she died
Aside from three lyear's residence
at Alden, Mimi, her home has always
been near Cresco. She died within six
miles Of the place of her birth, Lee.
"a, 1910, after painful illness of four
days, being 81 years, 8 months and 22
days old.
Funeral services conducted by Rev.
Gammons were held from the home,
Monday, at 10 o'clock Interment was
in Oak Lawn.

Compromises the Claim.

For some time the Board of Super
visors and Dr. Carpenter Of Lime
Springs have been unable to agree on
bil:brought against the county for
services rendered in disinfecting resi-
dences under quarantine. Three suits
have been brought in district by DR..
Carpenter and two of them withdrawn.
The last case was granted change of
venue at the recent December term.
The Board of Supervisors at their ses-
sion last week authorized the settle
ment of the case, and accordingly a
stipulation signed and on file in the
Clerk S office calls for the dismissal of
the case on payment by the county to
DR.. Carpenter of $2!7. The original
claim was $3l0.

The Ballinger whitewash.

The Ballinger whitewash by the re-
publican members of the investigating
committee was no surprise to the pub
lie. Chairman Nelson and several OF
the other gentlemen who signed the
report giving MIR. Billinger clean bill
showed during the investigation that
they were inclined to bel his jealous
partisans rather than his fair judges
So far as any influence upon the puonc
mind is concerned, the Ballinger white
wash report is not worth the paper up
on which it is written. "You can fool
some of the people all of the time, and
all of the people some of the time, but
you can't fool all of the people all of
the time!' And Abraham Lincoln had
a pretty good idea of the people, too

Golden Opportunities in the
Northwest.

The Dakotas, Montana, Idaho and
Washington offer golden opportunities
for the farmer, the business and the
professional man. Towns recently es-
tablished along the new Chicago, Mil
waukee & Puget Sound Railway in
these states have had phenomena!
growth. These new towns offer good
openings in many lines Of business.
Adjacent to this new line are thous-
ands of acres of good agricultural land
awaiting development and in Montana
a l6O-acre or 32O-acre government
homestead can still be secured. THE
MILWAUKEE, & ST. PAUL RAIL
WAY during 1911 will offer very low
round-trip fares to points in the North
west, affording the homeseeker an ex
cellent opportunity to visit and irvesti-
cate this new and undeveloped coun-
try. For descriptive literature, fares
