The BTaughts Hold
KeldIOn Lot Sale.

"CuIiCS0dJ q HuIiibCi Va ACili-
monites attended the sale of town
lots of West Keldron, station
on the milwaukee, II miles east
of here. The site owned by
Messrs. Braught is directly
aronnd the station keldron. and
is designated West Keldron be
cause some two years ago siste
was dedicated for townsite pur-
poses half a mile further east.
This property, being too great a
distance from the station. never
met with public approval and
must necessarily be abandoned
in favor of the site that is in
direct touch with the station.
The site of the new town is
ideally located on a gentle rise,
which drains on all sides toward
the lower ground at a distance.
Hay creek runs by the town on
the south side, and here is a
reservoir site, now being i'm
proved that is hard to beat. The
one well of the town gives an
abundance of the very best water
at depth of 40 feet. Here the
farmers of the surrounding coun-
try have built the farmers ele-
vator, and it is no idle boast Of
the promoters that the 120 share
holders in that elevator will look
to the upbuilding of the town
with as much enthusiasm as any.

Another feature the town pos
sesses is an ample supply of good
building sand. There is now in
operation one general store. run
by Mr.. Harrington, and a COM
pany has established a lumber
yard. Other business ventures
will be established in the near
future.
Some 35 lots were sold, going
at an aggregate of about Sc, 600,
the highest price offered being
for $550.00. Messrs. Braught are
highly pleased over the success
of their sale, and believe that
the town will attract business and
gather the trade of a large terri
tory.
Among those present were Mr..

Adams County Politics

Adams county is having it's thrills
resultant from recent political devel-
opments and surprises. IT'S true, at
the primaries the democratic vote was
but slight, and the only prominent
candidate on the democratic side was
Homer c. Berry, running for sheriff
Since then, however, matters have be-
come more complicated in the au-
nouncement that Attorney O. H..
Aygarn will run on the democratic
ticket for states attorney, against
Henry Moen, the republican nominee.
Also, Carl o. Dokken, our friend of
the Cook vicinity, bobs up serenely
to run independently for the job OF
county auditor, now held by Walter
+. Kelley, and who is the republican
choice, with a clear majority at the
primaries in his favor.
Thus there will be more than pass
ing interest centered on the coming
election, even in staid Adams
huditoi fNCily mas d
and capable official, and the result ot
the primaries would indicate that the
public thinks SO. However, he ap
pears to have excited the ire of some
Hettingerites, and to have thrown the
gauntlet at them, with the result tina
after much persuasion Mr.. Dokker
has been prevailed upon to try his
strength against Kelley. Mr.. Dokker
is one of the best known and best likeC
citizens OF the east end, and thos.
who ''have been at him" know that hs
will bring olt good count of sup
porters, even against the popular
Walter.
Then there is the Moen- Aygarr
melee Mr.. Moen pulled through two
years ago, after defeat at the pri
maries, in getting onto the democratic
ticket for which he received and ac
cepted few votes. He has made 4
careful and conscientious states at
torney, and reason would sugges
that he deserves another term. But
