Neudorfer Park.

The CIVIC League met at the
Court House Tuesday afternoon
and among other things done
named the park for Mr.. J. G.
Neudorfer, Superintendent of
the I. G. r. r. Co. with head
quarters at Water Valley. 1t is
quite a nice and merited compli.
ment. Mr.. Neudorfer has been
with the I. G. r. r. Co. for thir.
ty years, the long period of ser.
vice implies much more than
words can express. He was pre-
sent and agreeably surprised and
acknowledged the compliment
most gracefully stating, that it
could be named for others more
worthy than himself. The
I. G. r. r. Co., has expended
quite a sum of money within the
last few weeks through the in
fluence of the Civic League.
whose active membership is CON-
posed of our dear, sweet women,
to whom we are indebted for the
Park. Mr.. Neudorfer made
some splendid suggestions upon
which the League will act. One
was to get the park in shape be.
fore the Commencement exer-
cises at the A. & M. G. That
was good suggestion. It will
be nice for all visitors to see it.
It will be nice for the next
President of the United States,
Governor Judson Harmon, of
Ohio, who will deliver the An
nual address at the College.
Take notice that at 10 O'Clock
next Tuesday morning, April
4th., will be Field day upon the
ground of the Park, for every.
body to take trees, flowers and
shrubs to be planted. This is
a work of mutual love and Civic
pride.

ANOTHER GOOD MAN
For State Senator.

The name of Mr.. ]. A. Nc.
Reynolds was handed in too late
last week to appear IN the an
nouncement column of the News,
but is in proper position and due
form this week.
Mr. McReynolds was born and
reared in Western Oktibbeha
County, where he has ever
lived. excepting the years that
he attended and taught in Col
lege in Virginia and three years
that he taught school in the
PHILIPPINE Islands.
He is a thorough gentleman
and a finished scholar; an up
right citizen and a Christian
man.
He. too. intimates that he would
prefer meeting the people at
public places instead of house to-
house canvass, but will endeaver
to see every citizen of the Coun-
ty. The many friends who have
been instrumental in bringing
Mr.. McReynolds out feel and be-
lieve that he would be the right
man in the right place in the
Senate chamber, representing
the 23rd Senatorial District,
composed of the Counties of Ok
tlbbeha and Choctaw.
AS between the gentlemen as
piring to seat In the United
States, Hons. Jas. K. Vardaman,
Leroy Percy and G. Fl. Alexan-
der, his decided preference is for
Jas. K. Vardaman "first, last and
all the time" that he will stand
to the Vardaman post with
out hitching from start to finish"
We with his friends believe
that if elected he would make a
good representative that would
honor the district and one that
we would not be ashamed of un-
der any circumstances.
He asks that the good people
of the District investigate and if
found worthy to give him their
support and influence for which
he thanks one and all most kind
ly in advance.
He is before you for your con-
sideration and his request is en-
tirely fair and reasonable.

She looked at him expectantly.
Though she had spoken eagerly, her
voice and her manner had had a back
ground Of constraint, and David vaguely
felt that her meaning was not in her
words, but was lurking behind them.
'Yes?" he said, wonderingly.
The constraint was more marked as
she continued with an effort:

The constraint and effort were even
greater as she replied:

clearing your name!''
Her meaning seized him. He caught
his breath. She wnnted him to repay
the stolen money to st. Christophers!
He felt her eyes upon him. ''Yes|t
would help" he said, mechanically.
They turned back. She saw that he
was far away. She did not speak.
First came to him the absurdity OF his
trying to repay with his present earn
ings-ffty years of utmost saving. But
he pressed down the bitter laugh that
rose. He was right: If he was ever to
clear his name, he must refund the
money to the mission. Perhaps the book
would repay it; perhaps years and years
of work would be required. But repay
II he must-there was no other way.
He looked up as they paused again
before her house. "Yes-I will repay"
he said.

Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1911-01-27


The CHRONICLE is in receipt
this week Of a copy of the Ran
dali county bill which gives the
east line of the proposed county
as being the section line between
sections Is and 16, township SO
north, range 8 east, which hits
about a mile and a half east of
Winona. The other boundaries
are nearly the same as in the
petitions. It will be seen from
the above that the depots at
Sites and Kooskia are left in
the old county and the citizens
down that way should feel CRATE
full, for the lines could have been
drawn clear to the river Just as
easily as not. In fact the lines
as drawn are more equitable
than most people would have
been satisfied with and are emf
nently fair and just, despite
what the opposition may say to
the contrary.

Someone down at Boise has
evidently been trying hard to
besmirch Senator Eckert's char
acter and ''get him in bad" with
the majority in the senate. 1t is
reported from that city that con-
siderable money has been spent
there to get the single item pub
lished and spread about and all
who are not prejudiced in the
matter can no doubt easily see
the reason for the move. No
one, however, who knows Sena-
tor Eckert, will believe the re-
port for an instant. Jake Eckert
is too much of a man to stoop to
anything small or deceitful. He
is too much Of a man to be pulled
around by the nose by any polit-
ical party and his friends honor
him for his sterling qualities and
manhood. This was clearly shown
last summer and fall when they
nominated and elected him in
spite Of all the republican ring
in this county could do to defeat
him. Such a man is sure toecre-
ate Ell e MES and receive condem-
nation at their hands but it does
not effect him nor alter him in
his methods of fair dealings and
he cares no more for the ours
yapping at his heels than if they
were not in existence.
