CUFF Of the Hazelton Republican and
the Linton Advocate regarding S. E.
Kurtz, who recently resigned from
the board of commissioners of En-.
mons county. As matter of fact,
he should have resigned when the
grand jury investigated the actions
of himself. Sherwood ct AL; found
they had repeatedly violated the law
in doing county business. and recon.
mended their prosecution prose-
cution which they side-stepped by
pleading the baby act. ;"
The editor of the Record has moth.
ing against Mr.. Kurtz personally,
because the latter has done his share
toward making this county what il
is to-day. and because he is a good
neighbor and pleasant companion.
We even assisted or tried to assist
as an accessory after the fact, TWEEN
ty-five years ago more or less, in
eating some watermelons nipped
surreptitiously from his patch; but,
unfortunately. they were pie
melons. However. we bear him no
malice because of his planting pie
melons and citrons near the highway
where they tempted the wayfarer.
His personality is all right, and
something with which the public has
nothing to do. But he has been the
most prodigious failure, Sherwood
excepted. this county has had on its
board of commissioners for many q
day. Imagine this man, who is de-
scribed by the Republican and the
Advocate in such nauseating and
sycophantic terms. standing off the
people who are entitled to the pro-
lection of the board as to the use of
one of their principal highways;
f1ddle-faddling for months about the
matter, and then advising them to
cut the wires which had been placed
across the road. Were it not for the
harm that is done by time-serving
newspapers that are willing to ex-
cuse anything and try to cover up
anything that is done by public
officers. as long as the whack of such
newspapers at the county printing
is assured. it would be a matter only
for smiles. We repeat that these
designations of Messrs. Kurtz and
Sherwood are something for which
the taxpayers of tbs county should
be profoundly thankful.

WHITMAN LOSES
A HEART BREAKER

A heart-breaking loss to Whit

ball game between the mission
aries and the eleven from Moscow.
With the score five to nithing in
favor of Idaho, in the last minute
of play Neill of Whitman received
forward pass and dashed down
the field for 20 yards before being
intercepted, finally placing the
ball within a few inches of the goal
line. Noill himself and numerous
spectators assert that the ball went
over, but the officials ruled to the
contrary and Whitman lost the de-
cision and game. Playing was very

Elizabeth is commonly held to
have been the daughter of Henry
VIII and Anne Boleyn. The "Bisley
Boy story has 1t that "she" was
neither the daughter of the king nor
of Anne--in fact ''nobody's" daughter
but was rather a boy of humble
parentage picked up at random near

tho story:
When the Princess Elizabeth

suitable girl was available, but boy
was found near Bisley who filled the

specifically like the unfortunate lit

Will Be Judged by Acts.

I'VE are again preparing for a general
election. The parties and men respon.
sible for the conduct of national and
state affairs will be called to give an
account of their stewardship, and they
will be judged by what they have done
for or against the public welfare. That
is the standard we should apply.
I'VE cannot deceive ourselves with the
idea that people will be satisfied with the
mere repetition of promises: they de-
mand, and are entitled to, action.
THE republican party owes it's sue
cess to the fact that all its great achieve
ments have been progressive and aggres-
sive. While it has, in successive cam
paigns, urged it's history as a reason for
a renewed vote of confidence, 1t has
placed it's main strength on the fact that
it looked to the future rather than to the
past
Whenever any party fails to be pro-
gressve, that moment its usefulness be-
gins to wane. 1t is part of wisdom and
courage to hold fast to a position gained
as vantage point in great campaign.
but the chief benefit of such a position is
lost unless it is used for further prog
ress. This is the wide difference between
the present-day 'standpatter' and the
'DrogreSSiye'
