ELECTIONS.

Arkansas has already had many elections this year, and still there are more to follow. There have been primary elections for every office on the calendar of every governmental division, national, state, district, conuty and municipal. The general municipal elections have already been held, and we have yet before US the general biennial election this fall, and We are well in the mids of the national campaign.
 There is however another election which must not be overlooked and which, in many respects, is of greater importance 10 the individual elector than any Of the other elections
 THIS Is THE ANNUAL SCHOOL ELECTION, SATURDAY, MAY IS.
 As the public school is the very basis, the foundation stone, of good government, so are the duties of those who vote at the school election of grayest importance. The divisions are so small, each neighborhood al- most being a separate unit, that each vote is an important factor.
 It is important that good citizens, who are intelligently interested in better public school conditions and who will devote their time and energy to the cause, be elected direc- tors. It is also important that a sufficient school tax be voted and in most instances this means the full seven mills, permitted by the consti- tuition.
 All citizens are urged to vote at the SCHOOL ELECTION SATUR- DAY, MAY Is.

A Golden Star for Harry

Sheriff Harry Shockley and wife
were invited to attend a party at
Dan Sundberg's in Foreston on Sum
day and, upon arriving, found large
number of their friends congregated.
The party was in the shape of sur
prise to the popular sheriff-a party
of appreciation, as it were. Farmers
were there from all points of the
compass to participate in the festivi-
ties and a most pleasant afternoon
was passed with the sheriff, of course,
as the guest of honor. To show the
esteem in which Mr. Shockley is
held, and as an appreciation of his
services as sheriff, purse of s3S was
raised, which was turned over to
Mrs. Shockley with the request that
she purchase and present to her hus-
band a golden star.

Mr.. Ross was born at jefferson,
Maine, September222, 1929. He was
graduated from Watervil]e college in
that state in 1856. He served in a
Maine regiment during the war Of
the rebellion and for his soldierly
qualities and meritorious conduct
was promoted to a lieutenancy.
After the close Of the war he taught
school in his native state for num-
Der of years and came to Minnesota
in 1869. For a time he farmed in
the town of Baldwin and followed
his avocation as teacher. In 1876
he was admitted to the bar and the
same year located in Princeton and
was elected county attorney of Mile
Laos county. The first ballot the
writer ever cast contained Mr.. Ross
name for county attorney. Mr.. Ross
performed the duties devolving upon
him in such satisfactory manner
that he was reelected in 1878, and
served until January, 1881. In 1890
he was again elected county attorney
and has held the office continuously
ever since. On divers occasions he
had live opponents good, able at
torneys-but majority of the voters
always expressed their preference
for "Uncle Joe.'
Mr.. Ross was ever faithful to the
best interests of the county and we'll
the voters knew it; they believed in
him and trusted him; their conf
dence was not misplaced. He ALWAYS
did his duty, but was never arbitrary
or unreasonable. His sympathies
have always been with the poor and
unfortunate. Had he charged rea-
sonable fees for the legal advice he
has given he would be a rich man to-
day. But Uncle Joe is so constitute
ed that he could not charge a poor
client for advice, and his advice was
always sound.

ZIM TEAM IS D0WNED.
Princeton Boys String Another Scalp
to Their Belt by Defeating the .
Zimmerman Twirlers.
The Next Contests on the Schedule
Will Be Fought at the Coming
lille Laos County Fair.

By the handled sscore' of to
IL the Princeton team defeated the
zimmerman leaguers at the local ball
lot last Sunday. A good-sized crowd
turned out to see the contest and,
although the final result was never
much in doubt after the last half of
the fifth inning, still the play was
interesting and Zimmerman started
to look dangerous on several occa-
slons. But it was only flash in the
pan, for sharp fielding and alright
pitching by Porter soon put a
quletus on any threatened outbreak
and the visitors again dropped back
into second place. Princeton start
ed piling up their total right in the
second round when Davis, Skahen
and A. Roos made the complete cir
cult of the bases for total of three
runs. Zimmerman failed to score
until the third inning, Porter strik-
ing out the first five men who faced
him. In the third they succeeded in
getting one run around the loop and
in the first half of the fifth they sue
ceeded in tying up the score by gar
nering in two more runs, thus leav-
ing the score in 3 to 3 tie, Prince
ton having failed to collect more runs
in the third and fourth. Not ex-
act]y liking the looks of this tie
score, Princeton proceeded to muss
things up in their half of the fifth
and, when the market had subsidized
from this little war furry, Mallette,
Porter and Davis had sneaked into
camp with three more runs. thus
jumping the Princeton stock up sew
eral notches. This was really the
turning point Of the game, and after
this there was little doubt in the
minds of the spectators as to who
would be finally returned winners.
In the sixth inning the locals went
on another getting crusade and before
the side could be finally retired they
had crossed the registering station
four times. The final score was
