Most anyone can be an editor All
the editor has to do is to sit at desk
six days out of the week, four weeks of
the month, and twelve months out of
the year and "edit" such stuff as this:

ROAD DRAG LAW
Attorney General Cosson Explains
Provisions OF New Dragging
Law Of Interest To All

From Capital, June 18th: The attor-
nsy generals Office today ruled that
the basis of compensation under the
new road drag law is so cents for eve
ry mile travelled in dragging the road
and not so cents for every mile of road
dragged. This means that trustees
will have little difficulty in getting
roads dragged.
The new law provides that there be
paid for dragging mot to exceed so
cents per mile for each mile travelled
back and forth" Practically all the
trustees ofthe state thought this meant
so cents per mile for round trip. The
attorney general Office holds not. I'm
der the ruling made today it will be a
dollar round trip. If man drags a
mile down the road he gets so cents for
that mile, and If he comes back over
the same mile with his drag he gets
another SO cents for the mile. 1t is the
distance actually travelled.

BUSINESS CHANGE
Two Prominent Business Firms Con-
solidate To Improve Stock And
Cheaper Handling ToPatronS.

The hardware firms of John Nielsen
4 Company and Neils Nielsen Hard
ware Company, the latter firm being
the successor to James Walker, con-
solidated their stocks of hardware,
furniture aud undertaking goods and
will hereafter be known as the John
Nelson Mercantile Company, where
they can be found at the old stand of
John Nelson & Co.
This consolidation of two of our fine
business firms with their combined
capital will not only enable them to
furnish their patrons with better Sc
lection of goods from which to select
their purchases, but they will be able
to show as good line of goodsas they
now carry for less money. This move
will give Extra two OF the best Hard
ware Stores in the state.

And incidentally eat ice cream

And drink our fill of lemonade.

MRS. FIR. MCLAUGHLIN
Died AT Her Home In Lincoln Town
ship. Loved And Respected
By All Who Knew Her.

Miss Cora Evans was born in Knox
County, Illinois and was married to
Mr.. F. r. Mclaughlin in 1885. Soon
after their marriage they collected
their belongings together and started
west and located on their present
farm. They rented this farm Tor four
years OF L. G. Whipple when they fl
nally bought it. By judicious man
agement they have brought this farm
up to the very highest state of culti-
vation and have raised their family Of
three sons and four daughters. Here,
when this country was new and house,
hold duties were numerous Mrs. Nc
Laughlin could often be seen going or
coming from the sick bed of neigh
Dor where she bad been spreading
golden grains of comfort and cheer to
the afflicted. Her sweet Christian
life was epent for others. Although
fraii of body her strength never failed
her while in the work of her Master.
Day or night she was ready to pro-
mote His work and to do His bidding.
She worshipped her husband which
was reciprocated to the utmost. Her
family she loved "a no one but Mother
can. Her Church ana Church follow
ers were her ideals, and she extended
sympathy for those who fell short Of
their privileges. In Lodge work she
was an active member of Canterbury
Bell Rebekah Lodge I. o. o. F. and
her executive ability kept her in the
offices of their councils. At the time
of her death she was Deputy State
President of the organization. But q
short time ago she installed new off,
GERS into their positions in Gray, Au-
dubon and Brayton her own territory.
She has gone but will never be for
gotten. She built home that will
be an enduring monument to her me-
mory through all the ages. The va
cant chair will be there forever but
that pure soul that once occupied 1t
has gone to the God who gave 1t. Her
body we place in the sepulcher but
her memory will be with us always.
Father, Children, follow the teach
ings and scatter sunshine over the
pots Of life that now seem so dark.

persisted in gaining admittance.
so the second shot was fired
striking Mr.. Price in the luglar,
causing almost instant death.
Both men were wellknown and
peaceable and the course taken
by the man now dead is believed
to be due to the influence of alco.

many makes the party who sold
Mr.. Price such a quantity ol
Alcohol as to put him in snch a

Mr.. Nesbitt had a preliminary
