Parents Of La Grange Girl Follow
Couple Here, But Relent and
tho Wedding is Sol
emnized.
Welded THIS MORNING
Lawrence Rost, Of Canton, and Miss
Helen conrath, La Grange, Were
the Couple Who Found
Haven Here.

Dan Cupid, wicked little imp of
orange blossoms and hare bells, cele
brated another triumph in Keokul this
morning in the office of Clerk Lake,
when Justice Liendecker presided at
the yoking of two Missouri hearts,
Lawrence Rost, of Canton, and Miss
Helen Conrath, of LAGRANGE. The
yoking had all the features of gen.
uine, sure enough elopement, even to
the imploring of police assistance by
cnraged parents, whose outward oppo-
sition to the wedding which was con-
summarized later, was so plainly evil
dent as to be decidedly embarrassing
to the young man from Canton. who
had dared WOO the girl Of his choice,
despite all parental opposition.
Lawrence Rost, age 23, was the
young man in the case who dared chal-
lenge the wrath of a prospective faith
er-in-law and mother-in-law, and Miss
10, was the object of his wooing. Mr..
and Mrs. B. F. Conrath, we'll known
family of Lagrange, were the pros
pective parents-in-law.
Angry Parents Follow Couple.
Rost, who appears to be clean
cut. sentlemanly young fellow, found
favor in Miss Conrath's eyes, but his
calling on Miss Conrath was just as
bitterly opposed by the girls parents,
on account of some unapparent rea
son. Both were above the legal age
but Papa and Mamma Conrath consid
cred that point very lightly, and evi

daughter. plans, possibly, that could
offer better social advantages thar
those which young Rost had at com

to Keokuk was planned and they came
here yesterday evening, very quietly

An Honest Man.

"This honest man, Saul, started up
to Damascus to do service, as he I'M
ierstood it, for God; then it was that
ne heard the voice saying Saul, Saul,
why persecutest thou me?' For the
first time in his life there came in
dubitable evidence to the intellect and
understanding of this intelligent man,
that Jesus OF Nazareth was what his
followers claimed for Him; God OF
skies, God eternal. Certainly, it was
miracle, but why did Jesus work
miracles when He was on earth? To
show men that He had the force of
the universe in His hands and Ills
works were evidence of His divinity.
Jesus knew this man was an honest
seeker for the truth, willing to walk
| in the light OF truth wheresoeyer 1T
might lead him and SO He sent him
evidence of His divinity. Saul knew
| the only way to get complete evil
dence of this seeming truth was to
surrender to it and go wheresoever it
might lead him. The difference be-
tween this honest man and many men
who believe themselves honest is this:
They stop to haggle and bubble and
will not open their hearts to God /;
| they insist on more light and more
evidence when they are not willing to
walk in the light they already have.

CLARK HAS BEST CHANGE

Political dissensions, with it's per-

gone before. All the fine phrases and

agree to let fate as represented in the

PROFITS OF BEEF TRUST.

The beef trust packers declare
that during the years 1907, 1908,
1909 and 1910 their net profits
from fresh meat were only one
eighth of one cent pound
In 1907 the retail price of fresh
meat was from 11.8 to Is 8 per
cent. higher than in 1900, while
the price of cattle declined in
that period from S92.46 to SS1. SO.
And while dressed beef was half
cent a pound dearer in 1910 than
in 1909, the price of beeves was
lower. declining from SO per hun
dred pounds in 1909 to S755 in
1910.
Any self.respecting COW, says
the New York World, has the right
to wonder who got the extra diff
ference between her price on the
hoof and her price dressed.
TARIFF IS A TAX.
The word "tax" should be sub
stituted for the word "tariff." The
people would then understand the
question better. Fewer people
would then accept the protection
ist theory that the way for them to
increase their prosperity would be
to increase the tax on everything
they eat, wear or use. To use the
word "tax" instead of "tariff"
would be to make protection ap-
pear ridiculous to the wage Garner.
Instead of saying the "tariff on
WOOL" it would be better to say.
the "wool tax" or the "sugar tax"
or the 'implement tax" the "sew-
ing machine tax" etc. The word
tariff is deceiver. But the peo-
pie know what tax is. They
know they pay it themselves.
The word tariff has certain ring
to it that sounds like it was paid
by some third party.
