Some Lincoln Center boys attended
the sale some miles southeast of Lee
Vile. Guess everything went along
smoothly as the boys were looking
happy.
Will OStrander was burning off the
oat field that Is to be. last Tuesday.
Guess it is to be a draw between oats
and cockleburs with a slight advant-
age for the burs.
Bert Ostrander is in luck. He has
some fine Oat straw, one advantage OF
thrashing in the spring at least, and
he is able to help his neighbors out
who thrashed last fall and are now
out Of straw. viii Stengel got his
straw on a trade but sold it back to
| Bert as he didn't need 1t.
VIM. Engle got ambitious Tuesday
and began seeding. We can all begin
now and will make no mistake by
following his example.
Will Stengel was Smelling his corr
Wednesday. Charley Hall was doing
the Smelling. Will had sold the corn
to Gilbert Burnie so he delivered it
direct from the shelter, thereby saving
much work and hauling. Willis
brothers Christ and Fred we're help
ing shovel.
Ralph Millage was after the long
green mot the long greenback) but a
light wagon Friday. He was contem-
plating a trip to Sioux Falls Saturday
to buy seed corn.
Chas. Ceilings was at Beloit the
latter part Of the week purchasing
seed corn from Sam Thorson.
We are glad to that John
Stengel has nearly recovered from his
sickness. We missed John when he
was confined to his bed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harm HyrOnimus
were called to the bedside of Harms
brotherinlaw, Jere Gasmoe, Oh Tues
day. He is very low being afflicted
with heart failure and there is slight
hope of his recovery.
What has Fred Stengel been doing
the last few days. Ask him. l have
heard the familiar sound Of bump!
bang! Guess he is still picking corn.
Mrs. Ostrander and son Bert went
over to Hurley Saturday to visit an
aunt, Mrs. Louisa Chaplin, who lives
in Nebraska. They came home Sun
day evening.
Well, bye bye Rip, don't you wish
you had some of my Pepper?

Canton having adopted the Com
mission plan of government, it is now
up to the citizens to select a Mayor and
Commissioners who will meet every
requirement of the new system OF
government. Select your best avail
able men, for they will have to be
good men and decidedly patriotic as
we'll to meet the requirements OF pro-
gresssive city government. The
LEADER suggests the selection OF
Ralph Dean for Mayor and j. w.
Bremen for one of the Commits
sioners. Those who assume the charge
of government under the new system
will find hearty support from the peo-
Pile.

FOR STATE

To the voters of Lincoln County:
! I'm a candidate for the Office Of
state senator from this county, sub
ject to the approval Of the republi-
can voters at the Primaries to be
held next June.
/ believe in such economy in county
and state affairs as shall be consis-
tent with our proper progress and de-
velopment.
/ believe In the abolition of all such
offices as are not necessary for the
proper conduct of the affairs OF our
state.
believe that the duties of public
office should be discharged by those
elected and that fees for deputies
should be allowed only when 1t can
be satisfactorily shown that such
officers, after devoting their entire
time to their official duties, absolute
ly require assistance.
Some OF u present laws have been
found materially defective and l be-
lieve In such remodeling Of these as
to make their meaning clear and ure
the deficiencies in them.
l believe that one OF the most Inn
portant duties of the next legislature
Is the procuring Of just 1ntra-state
freight and express rates and the ex-
ercising of such influence IS Is posi-
BILE to secure just Interstate rates.
These are but q few Of the modii-
cations which should be made In our
present laws, and II nominated and
elected, I pledge to you my best ef-
forts to secure their enactment and
such other conservative legislation as
shall conduce to the best interests Of
our state.
l futher believe that under existing
conditions each aspirant for this Office
should inform the public in detail
what he expects to accomplish II cleo
ted and hence l shall make an effort
to meet with you in public and dis
cuss these and other propositions.
1 thank my friends for their past
favors aud shall appreciate their sup
port and that of every voter who be-
lieves I can serve him properly and
efficiently in this office.
