home was the unpleasant feature OF
his work, and oc.Bg urged to accept
the cashiership of the bank, he did
so, that he might be at home with
his family and his aged mother, Mrs.
Harriet Weir who for the past
several years has made her home
there. The Jacksonville Daily Jour
nal, in its issue of January II, says
this of Mr.. Weir =.
i. cMiller Weir, who,enters upon the
important duties of cashier, will
bring to the bank the ripe experience
of ten years as national bank exam
iner and examiner at large. In fact
his resignation from that position
was filed but yesterday aud it. is
acknowledged fact that during his
term of service Mr.. Weir has made
an unusual record for efficiency and
his work has been such as to occa-
sion frequent commendation from
the treasury department. Incidental
ly Mr.. Weir comes from family of
bankers, for his grandfather was one
of the early bankers in the state of
Kentucky and his uncle, James
Weir, was the oldest national bank
president in the country, having
served continuously as a president
for forty years. So when he began
work as a national bank examiner il
was not long before he found that he
had vstfuck his gait" Mr. Weir's
knowledge of banking in general and
his special familiarity with national
banks make him very valuable man
for the work he has undertaken. He
naturally was somewhat reluctant 10
give up the position he held but the
change to the new work will make it
possible for him to spend all of his
time at bis home here"

the bank-who sixteen years ago at
tended school in Woodbine. In writing
the news OF his town to one of the
OnaWa papers he has occasion to refer
to Woodbine, holding it up alongside or
Mapleton OF that county in matters OF
growth and advancement in other ways.
The Napoleon Press has been doing
lot of lamenting because that town mas

ahead for the town. and all that sort OF
thing 1t is in regard to this matter
that the young business man referred
to takes the Mapleton paper to task.
This paper reprinted the main facts OF
the discussion week or two back.
The point we want to make is right
here: This man, tho sixteen years
away from the town, has kept one eye
on Woodbine. He makes observation OF
its advancement and growth. He notes
that it has never in these years had
saloon or even a pool hail. A good
name is not bad asset to possess. even
for town. We do not know the man.
and altogether likely he doesn't now

PLACING RESPONSIBILITY.
TSpirit Lake Beaco

The senatorial deadlock is still on.
Hon. A. y. Funk has not only establish
ed clean-cu record for himself ana
his candidacy the past week. but has
put a quietus on many Of the strong
arguments and claims set forth by the
other candidates. 1t may not lead to
his election but it has proven to the
people Of Iowa and the members OF the
Iowa state legislature that in the Dick
inson county candidate they have r
man who will sacrifice his highest am
bition for the welfare OF the state and
party. In the face OF the claims made
by other candidates and reports sent
broadcast over the state that he was
pa ced in the race to defeat other cam
didates: that Kenyon would win II he
was out and he would not win If Ken
Won was out: that that the progressive
element of the party was the cause of
the dea dlock. Mr.. Funk made state
ment Monday wherein he released all
his Supporters and asked them to vote
for Kenyon. The result OF MI Funk's
action proved the test and cleared
many a sky. Kenyon received all the
Funk vote on Tuesday. but two. those
going to Young. but with only neces-
Sary seventy-six to elect Kenyon was
ten votes shy. Funk permitted the
same procedure to 90 into effect on
Wednesday, but the vote on Kenyon
remained the same as Tuesday. sixty
six.
BY Mr.. F'unk's action the vote proves
that his candidacy Is not a hindrance
to any OF the other candidates.; that
Kenyon can not be elected with Funk
out OF the race: that the standpatters
will not vote with the majority to elect
United States senator, and that the
full responsibility Of the senatorial
deadlock has been placed where it be-
longs-on the standpatters.
