'KOSSICK'S SCALP
IS Being SOUGHT
KID LYONS WILL POST 500 FOR
FORFEIT TO ANY CLUB THAT
WANTS TO PUT HE AND KOS
SICK ON FOR a GO - JACK
BEACH WOULD ALSO LIKE GO.


That the scalp Of Leo Kossick is be-
ing much sought for, is evident from
the mail of the sporting editor of The
Forum this morning. Two light
weights are after the Moorhead boxer
and express themselves as being very
anxious to meet him.
The letters received are published
herewith showing their exact senti-
ment:
Grand Forks, N. d., Aug. 2s.-
Sporting Editor Forum, Fargo N. d..
Dear Sir: desire to challenge the win
ner Of the Kossick- Mccarthy match
to bout OF no less than fifteen
rounds, the same to take place before
the club offering the best considera-
tions. ] am willing to post a forfeit
of 800 to bind the match and would
appreciate any assistance you may
render in getting the match arranged.
You will no doubt remember that I
was to have fought Kossick once be-
fore and he failed to appear, stating
that he had important business In an
other city at the time Of the match.
Trusting that you can arrange the
match and thanking you, / am,
Yours truly,
Kid Lyons.

Road improvements.

The Obion Couty Good Roads Asso-
citation seeks to encourage the building
Of improved wide dirt roads, graded to
not over a per cent grade and kept in
first-class condition twelve months in
the year by properly working, dragging,
etc.
About the dragging of the roads, we
would suggest that clubs of from two to
ten on all roads be formed, with one
man to act as leader and say when to
have the work done, and in this way no
one person will miss the time and the
roads will be kept in good condition
The contractor can be expected to do
but little dragging, if he properly keeps
up all the other work, but if little
more money could be paid the contrac-
tors they could keep all the work done,
including the road dragging.
We have had more to say on road
work this year than will be necessary
again, on account of stirring up the
people to action, and when once they
get the work to going they will need no
of what is needed in road
work. We intend to keep up this agi-
tation until at least one hundred miles
OF first-class dirt roads are built in the
county. Let every district in the coun-
ty get busy improving its own roads.
Another suggestion is offered. It's this:
Let every farmer in the comfy give five
lays extra work with team and driver
each year for three years. The time
will never be missed and the improve
nents will be surprising. Who will be
he first TO try this proposition.

Election Commissioners.

The County Board OF Election Com
missioners, composed of d. P. Cald-
well, f. S. White and G. r. McDade,
recently appointed by State Commits
sioners Young, Maynard and Stratton,
met in Union City last Monday for the
purpose of issuing commissions OF cleo
ton to the municipal officers recently
elected at Mason Halls
The Board thus officially recognized
the membership Of d, p. Caldwell, The
newly constituted State Election Com
mission, Taylor, Hancock and Black
ard, substituted the name of S. r. Brat
ton instead Of ID. P. Caldwell and in
dorsed the names of G. r. McDade and
f. s. White, for the purpose of consti-
tuting a county board with two OF the
three selected by the first named State
Commissioners, to act with S. r. Bratton,
in the capacity of Board of CountyElec-
ton Commissioners. This State Com
mission was named by the Comptroller,
the Treasurer and the Secretary of the
State, and it was evidently the purpose
Of these gentlemen to nullify the cleo
ton Of Mr. Caldwell, and thus control
the county committee. Mr.. McDade
and Mr.. White, however, met with Mr..
Caldwell and these three proceeded to
act in their official capacity as the Board
of Election Commissioners of Obion
County, and we understand will so con-
tinue unless the courts should hold diff
ferentlv.

Pictures That Educate.

The first moving pictures were purel.
for entertainment. Now in the natura
progress Of development, comes the pic
ture that is to educate.
There are government occupation
and workings that are intensely inter
esting to all citizens of the United States
For example, everybody would like t,
know something OF the ways of max
ing money or Of recording patents
These and many other things are to b.
put on films by the moving picture
men, and will be shown far and wide
through the country, wonderful revela
tons to the people too remote from the
actual processes to see them.
1t is by special permission OF the Gov
eminent that these films are to be made.
The picture men have the right to gem
eral exhibition, but duplicate films are
to be reserved for the Government for
purposes of public lectures by depart
ment heads, who wish to illustrate any
work being done.
For instance, all the processes of the
building of big battleship or the
printing and engraving of notes and
money, will be put before an audience
in much more realistic way when the
men and women seem actually to work
before the eyes.
The moving picture shows have come
to be one of the institutions of the age.
The subjects are as a rule entertaining
If not wholly humorous So important
has the industry of making these pic
lures become that actors have in many
cases deserted the stage and gone into
the business of posing for movine one. "
Seeking to amuse, the workers have
often oyerstepped the lines of decorum,
and censorship has already become nee
essary; for only clean pictures may be
Unfortunately shown to an audience,
largely made up Of women and children.
How helpful these Government de-
partment pictures may be made is easy
to see. Not only in lectures will they
be used, but the time may come when
every village school may have its NOV
ing picture illustrations to educate the
pupils in the way Of Government work.
Dry, hard lessons will then flame with
color and interest, aud what was unim-
lginal before will become a reality as
he machine clicks off its long rolls of
inns. Commercial Appeal.

The effort Of some of our good DEM
ocrats and citizens last Monday 10 har-
monte the Democratic factions of Obion
County shows that there is a spirit Of
good fellowship still existing between
Democrats and that many of them are
willing to sacrifice differences of opin-
ion to the extent Of getting together in
the same working organization. Quite
a number Of good men took part in
last Mondays meeting. Others stood
apart ready to begin the fight over
again. When Mr. Wilson, OF Obion,
went to the chair he said that he would
have to be excused from a speech, but
that he was unqualifedly for harmony.
Such men as he is the only hope for
restoration of Democratic harmony in
the State. The Commercial pointed out
some time ago that the only way to
harmonic is for the old factional lead
ers to yacate. There is no such thing
as harmony with bitter partisan leaders
in the saddle. Both or all sides must
relinquish the reins to a compromise
man, and that man must be strong
one before harmony can exist, and if
Democrats are willing to get together
this way there can be harmony, il not
there can be no harmony.

nocuous desuetude and the spark is a
memory We are not inclined to the
agitation which undertakes to compel
citizens or force them in these matters.
Would rather see a healthy sentiment
stimulate the movement Theorganiza-
ton is ever so good if it but move with
judgment and discretion The ladies
can accomplish much by persuasion.
But be it said to the credit OF the Union
City League that it proceeded upon more
rational lines than obtained in some
places.

City and there is no question but that
we will have it some day. But why not

evade the issue, but the Laurier Gov
eminent is determined to make the
question the one factor of the coming
parliamentary elections.
