Body Brought From Dakota.

Mr.. and Mrs. Ed F. Johnson arrived
this morning from Lane, South Dakota
with the body of their little niece Mary
johnson three years of age, daughter
of his brother Elmer G. johnson, whose
death occurred Monday night July 81,
1911. The remains were taken to the
home of Mr.. johnson and the funeral
is being held this afternoon at the NJ
E. church conducted by the pastor Rev.
j. HI. Freedline. The parents were not
able to come TO bury their dead, for the
reason that the other two children are
very sick, the younger about one year
old being dangerously i'll. A young
son of Mrs. Matt Mccall, who was Wis
iting at the home of her daughter Mrs.
Johnson is also in critical condition.
The physicians certificate says the lit
tie girl died of summer complaint and
dysentery. Mr.. and Mrs. johnson
moved out to Lane last spring and the
death of their little Mary coming so
soon brings to them great sorrow.
They have the sincere sympathy of a
large circle of friends here who hope
and pray that the. other children may
speedily recover.

The fiftieth wedding anniversary OF

celebrated at their home in Audubon,

Mail Subsidy For Iowa.

While the southern papers are pro-
testing against the postal department
project to send mail from New York,
New Orleans, San Francisco and
Seattle to Colons and Panama by six
teen knot steamers, the patrons of Iowa
postoffices are complaining of unreason-
able restrictions in the inerior postal
service, and General Hitchcock recent
generosity to the rural mail carrier ap-
pears to have awaited him naught.
1t has been left to Madrid, Iowa, to
put its protest on paper. 1t has written
a letter to President Taft, reciting the
fact that towns of about its size Il LID
suffer discrimination from the postal
department. While the farmer gets
his mail delivered at his front door and
collected there, too, and the dweller Of
the city is similarly convenienced, the
resident of small town not only has to
go to the postoffice to get and deposit
mail but he is forced to pay large
sum of money for the privilege. Last
year Madrid people paid Uncle Sam
one and one-half times as much for
postoffice box rent as they did taxes
to the state of Iowa, and they pay their
full share of the taxes, too.
I'VE are asking" says the letter to
President Taft, mot for favors but for
justice and square DEAL" and the
letter is signed by adozenrepresentative
business men, who urge that the dis
elimination affecting towns like Madrid
be eliminated by the postal department
before other reforms are undertaken.
In this connection it is observed that
Audubon is in arms because, under a
recent postal order, it can get and send
out its mail but once a day.
The southern papers, however, are
able to extract consolation from their
troubles in which Iowa compliments
against the postal service cannot petit
cipate. They comfort themselves with
the hope, which sometimes rises almost
to the dignity of belief, that General
Hitchcock will be replaced by demo-
cratic president before he has time
either to substitute mail steamers or
turn down the business men of Madrid.
Whatever the decision with respect
to the interests of our southern ports,
the claim of towns like Madrid should
be given consideration by the postal
department Register & Leader.

craney Sells His store.

Within the last week r. o. Craney
has traded his store to j. G. Boyer for a

ern part of Pottawattamie county. They
are busy making the invoice prepare
tory to making the transfer, which will
be completed this week. Mr.. Boyer, the
new proprietor, has been resident here
the last year and is favorably known
among our people. He will be assisted
by Ray Booten, his son-in-law who has
had good experience in the business.
Mr.. Craney has been in business here
for eight years and has had good
trade. But he has not been in vigorous
health for some time and will take a
rest for awhile at least before assuming
other duties. We trust that both the
old firm and the new firm may profit
by the change.

We learned incidentally while in con
versation with Jacob Topp of Sharon
township that the rural mail carrier on
Route No. stops one day in the week
at each of six different homes to- get his
dinner and feed his horses. Mr.. Topp
said they were glad to do it to show
their appreciation of his service That
itmeans but little to them to do this
but it will be quite an item to him in
the course of year We remarked to
him that we thought it would be good
thing if the rural delivery would be cut
off for just month in order to wake a
good many people up to proper appre.
citation of what the government is doing
for them in this respect 1t is often a
good thing to count our blessings one
by one. ~

dents of Audubon heard the rumor that
the mail car was to be taken off and be-
gan sending in petitions and letters
asking that the service be allowed to
remain as it was but the petitions were
ignored owing to the fact that the post

of mail cars on short branch runs as
this is partof the retrenchment policy
