From South Dakota.

Gregory, S. D. Dec. 81, 1910.
Editor Leon Reporter: Enclosed
please find our remittance for your
paper for the coming year. Through
it's columns we read of many
changes in Leon and vicinity, and
are glad to see so many changes, for
although we still like our western
home, Leon has a warm place in our
hearts.
Our winter so far has been fine.
Have had two SHOWS, but the first
had melted before the last one came
which was before Xmas, SO therefore
we had. a white Xmas. Neither
snow tied up the autos and they are
kept busy. Milo is still on the go
most Of the time.
We were surprised a couple Of
weers ago to see two of Icons for
mer gentlemen, w. A. Brown and
H. J. Vogt, drop in and visit US. It
is always good to US to see any one
from Leon and we enjoyed a nice
visit with them.
1t is still interesting to us to see
this new country grow and the coun-
ty that opened last year is thick with
towns, and the railroad Is already
built part way across. This was a
good year and crops were fine.
We wish all our friends happy
New Year. Yours Truly.
Mrs. Milo Moore.

CLARKE COUNTY MAN TELLS OF
MIRACLE
Mark Fitzgerald, who lives Five
Miles South of Truro, Says Lord
Healed Him.

The little town Of Truro, just
across the line in Madison county, is
very much worked up over the case
of Mark Fitzgerald, citizen of
Clarke county, living near Truro,
who claims that he was raised from
a sick bed after his spirit had left
the body and made a visit to the
very gates of heaven.
Mr.. Fitzgerald is prosperous
farmer, about thihty-five years of
age and few weeks ago was lying
at the point of death after an illness
of several weeks from a complication
of diseases.
His son and brother was sum-
moned and it was feared that he
would not live to see them.
He said that he actually died or
at least his spirit visited heaven and
that he saw and conversed with men,
bers of his family long ago dead,
and that the Lord told him not to
touch them as he was yet unclean.
He says he told the Lord that if
he was permitted to return to earth
he would devote the rest of his life
to the interests of humanity.
The next morning he arose and to
the utter amazement of his family
dressed himself and appeared we'll
and strong. He says he is complete
ly cured and expects to sell off his
stock and devote the rest of his
years to religious work. On the eve
ming of the 18th, Sunday, he spoke
to his friends and neighbors upon
his experience in the church at
Truro.
The Sentinel called up some of the
business men at Truro and they tell
us that his story is generally accept
ed and that the most skeptical do
not doubt that he is sincere in his
statements. The case has attracted
much attention.-Osceola Sentinel.

to reason. He complimented them
on the fact that they were not quar-
relling" and he expressed his belief
that the harmonious work of the
conference would have a marked ef-
feet on the upbuilding of Iowa's
roads.
In part Governor Carroll said: Il
am indeed glad to see the awaken
ing of interest among our people in
the necessity for good roads. have
seen much of Iowa recently and for
the last five years have never been
able to discover the enthusiasm for
good roads which has existed during
the last twelve months.
There is no doubt that the trus-
tees system is very defective. Many
are Indifferent and many are incom-
petent I am not going to recon-
mend to the legislature that they
abolish the trustees, however. Call
it theoretical if you please, but there
must be some one to determine
specifications and so on for draining
and other steps in scientific road
building. And we want to get you
folks to work along these lines. The
rivalry between the Blue Grass road
and the river to river road and the
Hawkeye road is a good thing. That
shows that the state from border to
border is interested in good roads.
And that in = turn means better
homes, better social conditions in
the rural communities Finally it
will stop the loss in population
Tire Problem Discussed.
Discussion of the broad and mar
row tire question occupied most of
the afternoon debate. A speaker
shortly after the calling of the ses-
sion questioned the point made by
Judge H. E. Deemer in the morning
that the narrow tire vehicle should
be licensed. This led to strong ex-
preston Of sentiment in favor of the
measure proposed by Judge Deemer.
Former State Senator B. w. New
bury, of Strawberry Point, gave facts
and figures which plainly showed the
benefits of the usage of the broad
tire wagon. He cited figures from
an investigation in the state of Mis-
souri,. He showed that only in GER
ing out of the ground was the mar
~" L1IO VI UcucuL " ZIG ldI ucI.
An ordinance in the city of Chicago
requiring broad tires was mentioned
by him. He also told of how the su-
pervisors in New York were given
power to say whether broad tires
should be used or not.
Other speakers placed emphasis
upon the fact that good roads meant
increased land values, upon the ne
cessity of building permanent roads,
upon the Importance of correct
drainage, and upon the need of
using standard height wagons on
Iowa roads.
Eve can spread good roads en-
thuisasm in 1911 to every neighbor-
hood in Iowa." said President Young
in closing the afternoon discussion.
THE dirt road is the first aid to the
wounded. Dirt is, after all, the foun-
dation for every road you have.

Ear Of Corn Sells For 500.

The champion ear of corn shown
at the Iowa Corn Show sold for even
one hundred dollars, and went to
the Successful Farming, an Iowa
agricultural paper. 1t was raised
by j. C. Eggert, of Newton, Iowa.
c. R. Bishop, of Altoona, bid $11
for the prize ten ears of corn. This
corn was his own raising and when
he exhibited it, the corn became the
property of the association. Then
Bishop had to buy his own corn to
get it. He also bought the prize
bushel of corn for $S2, also his own
raising.

STATE AID FOR ROADS
Law For Improvement And Com
pulsOry Dragging Favored by
@e"~#, Boosters.

Des Moines, Dec. 29.-Good road
boosters yesterday officially adopted
a policy which they hope will result
in the systematic betterment of Iowa
roads.
State aid, revision of present
laws, Capitalization Of authority in
dragging were strongly advocated
ference held in the Y. M. C. A. au-
ditorium. The vote on the resolu-
tions took place at the afternoon
session. The meeting declared as
follows
THAT in the interest of simplicity
we favor rewriting of the road
laws of the state into single act.
THAT we favor the compulsory
dragging of earth roads and the
creation of non-divertible drag
fund.
THAT we favor a simple system of
road management under a central
lied authority which shall work
through skilled and competent Of
ficers.
THAT we favor some form of state
aid to encourage good road building.
THAT it is the sense of this con-
ference that an Increased per cent of
our road funds be entrusted to the
management of the board of super
visors.'
Throughout the conference of 800
delegates strife and con1iction was
absent. Keen and sharp debate took
place on certain questions but all
traces of politics were sidetracked at
the meetings.
The only really spirited argument
developed over resolution offered
by Chairman Frank Morris, of the
Polk county board of supervisors.
Immediately at the beginning of the
afternoon session he introduced the
following measure: BE it resolved,
by the state good roads conference
in session assembled that it is the
sense of said conference that the
county road funds of each county of
this state of Iowa be placed in the
the various counties of the state for
the expenditures in the employment
of an engineer at such time as they
may deem best and at price they
may fix, and then the board of SUI
poTVlSOTS is u nave SUPERVISION Ol
all work."
Norris Minority Report.
This was referred to a committee
on resolutions, composed of State
Senator N. Balekma from Sioux
county, who introduced the resolu-
tons which were finally adopted;
John w. Foster, w. F. Stipe, C. H.
Thomas and Frank Morris. He fl
nally withdrew it and after the first
resolutions were adopted he again
presented it. A vote was taken on
the Polk county mans resolution.
It was lost by two votes. After more
debate, a second count was taken
and it was defeated by large ma
jority.
The afternoon session was largely
devoted to five minute speeches by
members of the conference on vari-
Gus phases of road improvement and
constructive road legislation brought
forth in the morning program.
Gov. B. F. Carroll was called upon
by Senator Lafayette Young, who
presided, for a five minute talk He
defined the gathering as that of a
