one O'Clock, afternoon, and came up to
Audubon where services were held at
the Presbyterian church. conducted by
Rev. A. A. Mitchell who chose for his
text the Fourteenth Chapter of Revela-
tions, Thirteenth Verse; And heard
avoice from heaven saying, write blessed
are the dead who die i'm the Lord from
henceforth; yea saith the spirit that
they may rest from their labors, for
their works follow with Them" Mr..

days about the old home He had been
u sufferer for three years, and for the
last six weeks had not been free from
pain; he murmured not yet was at times

for his family. He was always a loving
father and indulgent parent. Knowing
the end was near he babe his family

willingness to go home. Our loss is his

waiting to welcome the rest of his family

professor and the senator.
The early ages were those of physical
strength and prowess. The world was
ruled by might and not by right. The
love for fight was bred and born in
the race and developed by necessity.
There is still some of the infection in
the blood. Within our own life and rec
objection muscle ruled instead of mind
to large extent. The bully was the
hero of the community feared and fol
lowed if not always respected by his
companions. And now when some fell
low yells Fight, fight" there is the
same attention though not the same
emotion as when another yells Fire -
But what of it? The world is growing
better. The duel is ruled out. Fist
fights are few and far between. Mind
reigns instead of muscle, even if Mistah
Johnson does rule the roost in the prize
ring of the world today.

firm of Shugart * Barnes of Des Moines,
the concern which has the grading con

THE RENO PRIZE FIGHT

The American people like excitement.
Ordinary work and amusement soon
become irksome and tedious. Anything
new demands attention. A little excite
ment arouses curiosity. Nothing does it
more quickly than a scrap. The boys
on the school ground enjoy it. The men
ON the street run to see it. No wonder
then that the Johnson and Jeffries fight
attracted unusual attention. That one
of the combattants was negro added
some interest and much bitterness
among preiudiced people. The fact that
the negro won has made the whole race

Discussing this section Attorney
General Byers said: Under this pro
vision of the primary law the state
and not the congressional district is
the unit to be used in naming the cen
trail committee. As in county con-
ventions the entire county and not
supervisor district is the unit for
choosing state delegates, SO in the state
convention the majority can name the
state central committee regardless of
the wishes of the majority of the dele
gates from any congressional district.
AS matter of fact the districts have
no authority under the new law to
select their state committeeman, that
authority alone is invested in the ma
jority which controls the state conven-
ton. 1t is presumed that no majority
in any state convention. having this
power conferred on it by law, is going
to allow the delegates of the other
faction to name a majority of the state
central committee.

bered that at the primary election in

between w. ID. Stanley and X. w,

cases of tie vote the matter must he
decided by lot in the presence of the
judges as soon rs the vote is declared;
and unless this is done the incumbent
holds over to another election. As this
was not done II. w. Mullinger continues
as member of the committee for Hamlin
township. The entire committee is now
