This was decided first at the meet

secondly at meeting of the Denison

of the best celebrations Denison has

sured for all.
The celebration will be held at the
beautiful brotherhood park, where
there is plenty of room and plenty OF

bands which have been engaged and
the grand chorus to be led by Mr.. B.

After much deliberation, Mr.. and
Mrs. Carl Gronau have decided that it
is better to share their fortune with
their children now, while they are in q
position to enjoy the good things OF
life, rather than to wait until such
time as death shall come to cast q
gloom over the riches which the chill

1t was in pursuance of this plan that
Mr.. and Mrs. Gronau took Mr.. and
Mrs. B. ]. Sibbert and Mr.. and Mrs.
j. D. Sievers with them for a tour of
inspection of the fine farms and ex-
tensive ranches which Mr.. GrOnau
owns in Minnesota and in North and
South Dokta. These lands include
thousands OF acres and very moder-
ate estimate places their value at con-
siderably more than $25O,OOO. These
properties will this week be decided
to Mrs. Sibbert and Mrs. Sievers. This
princely gift is not the first that Mr..
and Mrs. Gronau have made to their
daughters, and both of them will be
able to enjoy the good things of life
in abundant measure.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gronau retain for
themselves an abundance to crafty all
their wants and desires, and Mr..
|Gronau will be able to enjoy life to
the fullest without any of the burdens
and business cares which the manage

manded. a- a2"N a"1 '"''

ASSAULT and BATTERY CHARGE
Three Men Arrested on Above Charge
Two Draw Jail Sentence and
the Other Fined.

Three young men, Henry Suhr, Earl
Guyette and JaQues Holt, managed to
get themselves into peck OF trouble
Tuesday afternoon near the Charles
Meyers farm just east of town, and as
a result Guyette and Holt are both
serving a sentence in the county jail.
1t seems that the three men were walk
ing to Denison and on meeting George
Kaplin, who was driving his wagon, en-
Ideavored to catch ride with him. 1t
seems that Mr.. Kaplin protested
against carrying the three men, with
the result that they pulled him off of
the wagon, one of the men striking
him.
Mr.. Kaplin telephoned to the author
tiles, who Immediately drove out to
the Meyers farm in an automobile and
put the three men under arrest. The
trial came off Tuesday afternoon be:
fore Justice Rollins, they being
charged with assault and battery upon
one George Kaplin. Henry Suhr plead
guilty to the charge and was fined
$25 and costs. Mr.. Suhr had been
working on a farm in East Boyer town
ship and had considerable money with
him and was able to pay his fine and
was released. Holt and Guyetre plead
not guilty to the charge and Guyette
was fined $50 and because OF his in
ability to pay his fine was given
sixteen days in the county Jail, eight
days of which he will have to live on
bread and water. Holt was fined $50
and has started to serve twenty days,
he also receiving eight days on bread
and water. The authorities are to be
commended upon their treatment, OF

Enormous Coal Valuations.

Under the present scheme of CLASH
flying Government coal land sc. OS9. 214
acres of withdraw land had been. on
August 1, examined in geologic detail
and classified by the United States Geo
logical Survey. The lands found con-
tam workable coal beds aggregating
Io,S13,37O acres. These lands, in 30
acre tracts, have been appraised by the
Surveyor at total valuation of S71l. =
992, 597, in prices ranging from the min
lmum figure stated in the coal law-s1O
or ~ an acre, according to whether the
land is located within Is miles of the
railroad-to figures of over $500 an acre
where the thickness of the coal beds
may aggregate 60, 80 or 100 feet. or
even more. The Government valua-
lions accord in a general way with the
market values of private coal lands in
the West, although as matter of fact
they are somewhat more liberal to the
purchaser. Four hundred dollars an
acre may seem high price for Uncle
Sans coal land, which a few years ago
might have been bought for $40 an acre.
However, the Geological SURVEYS plan
of classification and valuation contem-
plates that the Government should re-
ceive at least reasonable return for its
coal, admittedly the most useful rock
mineral in its possession. When it is
understood that an acre with. saw. a 40
loot coal bed or seam contains approxi-
mately ~, 900 tons of coal and an acre
with 100 feet of coal contains $50 OOO
tons, the price asked by the Govern
ment, instead of being exorbitant.
seems, on the other hand, hardly suffi-
Gent On land having a thickness of
80 feet Of coal $500 an acre would he
less than per cent ton. In reality.
under the Survey regulations which
consider depth of the coal, number of
beds, quality, and other physical de-
tails, the prices asked for MANY areas
containing so feet of coal are eouiya-
lent to nearer 2 than cents ton.
AT the minimum prices which were in
effect before the Government with
drawsls of coal lands, the I6. S73. $40
acres above referred to would have been
priced at only $266. 652, 431, the differ.

the new prices being therefore s445.-

Virginia Will Sue For Debt,

Being convinced that the State of
West Virginia intends to treat the judp-
ment of the Supreme Court of the
United States on the debt question with
the same contempt as that accorded the
claims of Virginia for forty years, it is
probable that the Virginia Debt Com
mission will shortly take drastic stems
to force settlement. The commission
will meet in the latter part of Septem-
Der, or early in October, for the DUR
pose of determining upon the next
move.
1t may be said with reasonable GER
talnty that this next step will be an ap-
plication to the Supreme Court to pass
upon the question of interest due Vir-
ginia, and to enter judgment against
the younger State. Having once done
this, little doubt is expressed that the
court will find way to make West
Virginia pay.

tered in a series of 50. one advertise
ment for each week in the year. Each
ad is supplied along with an attention
compelling copperplate cut, the illus
tration drawn by a high priced artist.
The whole series has been constructed
by an advertising expert with a national
reputation who has made success for
many other merchants in the same posi-
ton as yourself. 1t would be impossi-
bic to buy those advertisements for the
low price at which they are sold-from
one dollar per week up-but for the
large numbers of each kind that are
sold to thousands of retailers through
out the country. Only one merchant in
each trade is allowed to use a service in
his own town.
The retailers here would do well to
get full particulars of this new syndi-
Gated advertising from the editor of this
paper. The use of such craftsmanship
on paper-which may be called adver-
tlsing with punch in it's the straight
est road to advertising success.

political job in violation of the constitu-
ton can one be found?
But Mr.. Swanson gave his approval
to another act of the Legislature more
disgraceful and obnoxious to the consti-
tuition than any that we have previous
ly mentioned. We refer to the bill
which redistricted the Fifth and Sixth
Congressional Districts of Virginia.
The editor of the Roanoke Times. with
all his brazen defence of corrupt ma
chine politics. has not had the courage.
SO far' to defend his iniquity. That
redistric'ipg measure violated the spirit
and letter of each provision of the sec
ton of the constitution which directs
the apportioniug of the State into Con-
gressional districts. 1t was done for
the avowed purpose of taking the dis
trict from the possible control of the
minority party. 1t was Swanson's home
district and it is reasonable to believe
that he was a party to the scheme.
We bave cited three distinct outrage
Gus violations of the constitution, COM
mitted for political machine purposes.
When Swanson approved these meas
ures he betrayed a public trust, and
proved himself an interruptions politi-
clan.
