QUALLEY WINS CONTEST
Judge Fellows Declares Him Legally
Elected Sheriff.
CONTEST FARCE THROUGHOUT.
High Handed Methods of Democratic

Condemned by Judges
Decision.

The sheriff election contest farce
is over, the will of the people is
the law, and Thos. j. Qualley is still
sheriff of Winneshiek county.
The story of the contest over the
election of Thcs. ]. Qualley as
sheriff at the election on Nov. 8.
1910 is known to practically every
voter in Winneshiek county. The
returns of the election showed the
election of T. J. Qualley, republican,
over his democratic opponent, Phil.
j. Carolan, by the majority of As,
after bitter contest. 1t was Mr..
Qualley's third election, and each
time against the same candidate,
with the strength of the opposition
centered upon this office. Mr.. Caro-
Ian was popular man and a good
candidate and made a strong race
each time. After his third defeat
last fall, he was induced to file a
contest, very probably against his
better judgment, by aspirants of
leadership and domination in Win
neshiek county politics.
. Then came the contest court, COM
posed Of Chairman Geo. j. Cooper
(demOcraD of the Board of Super
visors, Editor Fred Biermann (demo-
craft of the DEBORAH Journal, and
chairman of the democratic county
central committee, and Atty. ]. A.
Nelson (republican). And the things
this court did were hailed with sur
prise and disgust by democrats and
republicans alike, men who had vot-
ed for Qualley and men who had
voted for Carolan. With two demo-
cratic votes against one republican,

Qualley out. Fly specks, pencil
scratches and various other techni-
calities to claim Identification of
ballots were taken advantage of and
voters disfranchised by the hundreds
to gain the desired end. Many of
the precincts were canvassed over
the second time, and still Qualley
was ahead. So with one fell swoop
they threw out the entire vote of
Lincoln township and then, with
great ado, declared Carclan elected.
1t was like a thunderclap from a
clear sky. Amazed and shocked, the
people of the county regardless of
party Affiliations condemned the au-
dacity and perfidy of such action.
Scores who had voted for Carolan
expressed their disapproyal in no un-
certain terms; not because of the
contest, not because they had declar-

1t is far cry to his advent into
the city of DEBORAH over third of
a century ago, and yet the history
of his life and business career is an
open book wherever he is known. A
young man of small means but an
honest heart and inherent industry,
Pie came to DEBORAH thirty-fve years
ago, and by some his entrance into
business was considered as a Joke.
But as people became acquainted
with him, they soon learned that he
possessed those traits of character
which seldom fail to make for sue
cess in life, absolute honesty and
frankness and unceasing energy and
industry.
He started out by taking the peo-
pie into his confidence, and during
these thirty-five years that confid.
ence has never been violated. He
has been a man among men, has
always endeavored to treat the peo-
pie fairly, and his present great
business demonstrates beyond perad.

His Head Was Hard.

II is a common belief that the no
gro's head is hard. capable of with
standing almost any blow.
The following story told by a promi-'
nent young dentist of Danville, Ill.
would seem to indicate something or
the kind anywhere. Two negro men
were employed on tearing down a
three-story brick building. One ne
gro was on top OF the building taking
off the bricks and sliding $em down
a narrow wooden chute to the groundy
some thirty feet below. where tta
other was picking them up and pilihg'
them.
When this latter negro was stoop-
ing over to pick up brick the former
accidentally let one fall, striking him
directly ON the head.
Instead of its killing him, he merely
looked up, without rising, and said.
What you doin' thar. niger, you
make me bite my tongue.''-The Cir

year trip into the unknown portions
of the earth collecting rare specimens
of bird life for exhibition here. was
accompanied by Mrs Beebe. as en-
thusiastic naturalist as her hus-
band.
When the curator's party reached
the region peopled by the Dyaks, the
aboriginal race of that island, feared
as the wild men of Borneo" and
known to be head hunters and canni-
balls, Mrs. Beebe's presence in the
wilds created great curiosity, for the
head hunters beheld q white woman
for the first time.
While on the slopes of Mount Kim
balu, near the source of the River
Kinabatangan, the naturalist's camp
was suddenly surrounded by fierce
looking Dyak chiefs, some robed in
fantastic garments made of birds
skins. some without clothes. some
wreathed around the waist and tenn
pies with leaves and feathers.
AS Mr. Beebe noticed the head chief
rush in the direction of Mrs. Beebe,
the curator drew his automatic pistol
and threw himself in a posture of de-
fense. But the precaution was un-
necessary, for the wild man" merely
laid furry animated little bundle in
the white woman's lap. 1t was a tiny,
week-old sun bear held in great rev.
erence by the Dyaks. Mrs. Beebe
carried the bear the rest of the jour
ney and fed it from bottle until the
party reached Brunei, seaport, from
which the little cub was dispatched
to the Bronx Zoo.

Kinnosuke in an article on the emper-
or of Japan 1t was original on a
monarch's part; absolutely without
precedent. Elsewhere, even in the
homes of Christian enlightenment,
blood has ever been the price that a
people paid for their charter Of lib
erty-witness the struggle with King
John, the American war of Indepen-
dence, the French revolution. When
the Japanese emperor wished to limit
his own absolute powers and give us
constitutional liberty. the people did
not want it; they did not understand
It; they were entirely Indifferent
about about It; they accepted 1t out
of respect to his majesty's wishes.

SUCCESS IN LIFE DESERVED
orphan 0irl's Career Shows What
May Re Done With Pluck
and Energy.

An orphan girl, left to shift for
herself early In life, saved and ap-
piled three separate educational funds
before she got where she wanted to be.
The first was made up Of money she
earned at odd Jobs
When her widowed mother died tho
girl. then IL years old, found home
with married sister, who boarded her
and gave her some clothing In return
for her services. She worked at what.
ever her hand could be turned to in
the little town where her sister lived,
saving every dollar she could and put
ting 1t into the savings bank. Before
she was 10 she had enough to take
course In dressmaking and after fol-
lowing that couple of years set out
IN the world for herself, going to
large city, where she got place In
fashionable dressmaker's establish
ment.
City life soon gave her larger ambi-
tions, and when she had saved enough
money she took a course OF training
that fitted her to become profess
sional nurse.
This paid better and also opened up
further fields of endeavor BY thrift
and the skillful use of every opportu-
nifty she saved enough money TO take
a full course in a medical school.
While she was at college work was
incessant and funds often ran danger
ously low; but she stuck to 1t pluckily
and helped herself along by her knowl-
edge of nursing. Today she is full
fiedged physician, and Is just coming

according to the wind velocity. Army
officers present testified to the great
value of the man-carrying kite for
scouting purposes in time OF war. II
