LAWS INJUSTICE MADE PLAIN
Farmers Grievance Was That Story
Once Accepted Should Not
Remain Good.

A story is being told at the expense
Of an old English farmer who was
recently called upon to explain why
he had failed to take out a license for
a favorite fox terrier dog. Els mob
but a puppy" the defendant remarked,
in response to a question as to the
animals age. yes, yes! So you say.
But how old is he?" ooh, weel,
couldn' tell to a bit" was the reply.
Il never was much good at remember
ing dates, but 'e's nobbut a puppy"
On the other hand, it was maintained
that the animal in question was q
very, very old-fashioned puppy, and
the magistrate inflicted the usual fine.
Shortly afterward the farmer was met
by friend who wanted to know how
he had Jared at the police court.
"Nobbut middlin'," was the reply.
did they fine you?" "Yes," respond
ed the victim; IAN 'ang me if l can
understand it! Last year an the year
afore that / told the same tale about
the same dog, an it wor allus good
enough afore! Who's been tamperin'
wi the law sin last year,"

FARM FIRE CREMATES BABE
Son of John FrawIey Loses Life in
Blaze Which Destroys Resi-
dence Near Merrill.

Merrill T., 18-months-old
son of John Frawley, Lincoln coun-
ty farmer, was burned to death.
While the father was at Tomahawk
the mother left the house to assist an
older son who was attending to the
evening chores. When they returned
they discovered the house in flames.
They were unable to rescue the
child. The mother and son were left
with only the light clothing on their
bodies, and as the thermometer was
20 below zero they suffered severely.

PANHANDLE
Counties Will Roll Up a Big
Plurality in the Defear
Of Mr.. Davis.

WHEELING, Oct 3o.-As special
" telegraphed item from this city,
story appeared in Clarksburg news
paper Stang that the Republicans of
Ohio county had given up hope OF
electing Hon. George A, Laughlin
and concede the county to John w.
Davis.
A prominent local Republican last
evening, when his attention was
called to the matter. resented it in
the strictest sense Of the word. He
onered to bet 500 that Laughlin
would carry the four counties in the
Panhandle by 1900 majority and he
would also bet a like amount that
Laughlin would be elected.
He stated that he would be glad to
place 800 in the hands OF the City
Editor Of the Intelligencer to cover
any OF the three bets named This
shows, contrary to this unfounded
Clarksburg report, that the Republi-
cans have not lost confidence and are
far from it. They claim Laughlin
gets stronger every day and that he
will defeat Davis in good style.
