FOUR HORSES BURN
Animals Perish In Fire Which
Destroys Echo Livery Barn
And Equipment

Four horses were burned to death
in fire which destroyed the livery
barn owned by Harvey Leopold, and
Henry Raddah at Echo Saturday
night. Besides the horses, all the
rigs and harnesses, an automobile,
and everything else in the barn were
burned. The hay loft was full of
hay, while the large grain and feed
bins were also full. All of this was
a total loss.
The origin of the fire is a mystery
for it broke out between twelve and
one o'clock Saturday night. A brisk
wind from the north soon famed it
into seething furnace, and all hopes
of extinguishing it were abandoned.
A large tank containing sixty gal
Ions of gasoline exploded soon after
the fire gained Roadway.

PET SIMMONS OUT
Released After Serving Ninty
Days AT County Jail For
Selling Liquor

Pet Simmons, who was sentenced
at the October session of the Red
wood county district court to serve
80 days in Jail was released from
custody Saturday.
Three months of alternating did
not have the effect on pet" that it
has on the creatures who do that
stunt habitually. Of course there
was no reason why pet" should
emerge from the bastile, starved and
thin as old bruin does after his win
tiers nap.
Unlike bruin. who must depend on
his amassed avoirdupois for nourish-
ment Pet had it served to him in
true Mandarian style three times a
day, for it is said that the chef at
the county hotel is an 'Artiste De
Luxe"
There is nothing funny about be-
ing obliged to go forth into the cold
wintry air to hunt a boarding house,
after having lodged for three months
in steam heated fiat, with burglar
proof doors. electric lights, hot AMI
cold water and bath.

PREVENTS BAD BLAZE
E. Bailey Carries Flaming
Gasoline Out Doors-Falls
Down Cellar

The prompt presence of mind
which E. Bailey exhibited in the
culinary department Of his restau-
rant last Thursday night probably
prevented a nasty fire.
The gasoline stove was leaking and
when Mr., Bailey touched match
to one of the burners. he accidently
ignited the puddle of leaking gaso-
line. Instantly the room was filled
with fire. Mr.. Bailey grabbed the
blazing mass and hurried it out
through the back door. AS he re-
entered the kitchen, his eyes dimm-
ed, and his hair scorched by the
flames. he failed to notice the open
cellar way and, of course stepped in
to it.
No bones were broken altho Mr..
Bailey though they surely were.

SCHOOLS WIN

mers' Club Won by Affirma-
tive, Say Judges
OFFICERS ELECTED FOR NEXT YEAR
A. P. Henderson President,
John Colville Vice President
Mrs. Fuller Secretary

mers' club last Saturday afternoon
at the courthouse.
The judges were Mrs. Frank
Clague, David McNaughton and Rev,
N. de M. Darrell. Mr.. McNaughton
and Mr.. Darrell agreed that the
affirmative had won the contest but
Mrs. Clague stood for the negative.
Big Crowds Heard Debate
The debate was listened to by a
room full Of farmers and was in
tensely interesting from start to
finish. The affirmative leader was
Miss Wilson who was assisted by
Charles VIM. and A. D. Smith.
Mrs. Fuller lead the negative assist
ed by Mrs. Little, Mrs. Dugald
Tiffany and N. w. Cobleigh.
Excellent addresses were made by
each one but in the opinion of the

ing obliged to talk against her con-
victions.

DEATH CLAIMS
MRS. F.vCULVER
After Several Months of Suf-
fering She Passes Away At
Parents Home

Mrs. Frank Culver died this morn
ing at the home Of her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. ID. l.. Bigham.
Mrs. Culver had been i'll for sew
eral months. She formerly lived in
st. Paul but came out here thinking
the change would prove beneficial,
For while she rallied but the i'm
provement was temporary and she
gradually grew. weaker in spite Of
all that medical science and careful
nursing could suggest for her re-
lief.
1t was evident some time ago that
she could not recover but in spite of
this her death came as a shock to
her family and friends. So suddenly
did the end come that her two older
children from ST. Paul arrived just
in time to see their mother alive.
Her husband came out last week with
the two younger children and was
with her at the end.
Mrs. Culver who lived practically
all of her life in Redwood was very
widely known here and was favor
ite with all. Her patience during
her fatal. lingering illness won the
hearts of those who witnessed it.
She is survived by her husband, four
children. her parents and 3 sisters
and brother. She was SO years old
being born in Redwood Falls in 1873.
The funeral will be held from the
Presbyterian church on Saturday
afternoon at 2 o'clock. A sister Of
the deceased living in Spokane will
arrive at noon Friday.

records. then examine the dairy
butter records which are kept up
on this farm. they will see why it
pays to have good milk cows. They
do not take any chances on the Red
wood Stock farm on cows that board.
Every days milk is weighed and
marked down and monthly record
forwarded to Mr.. Gold so that he
may know just exactly what each
COW is doing. A test of the butter
fat contained in the milkis regularly
made and accurate record is kept so
they may know just how the herd
pays.
A number of pure bred Poland
China hogs have recently been pur-
chased and they are planning on
handling only pure bred hogs.
Eventually all of the stock will be
worked into pure BREEDS as the oppor-
tunity presents itself.

ROOSEVELT IS
STILL LEADING
Vote Takenby Star shows Him
A Decided Southern
Favorite

Kansas City, Feb. 12.-President
Taft had dropped to sixth place ir
The Weekly Stars poll at midnight
last night.
La Toilette, the progressive Wis.
consin senator, after a steady climb,
passed the President with 5, 1877 votes
"a lead of fifteen votes. Governor
Folk did not hold his relative place
in 4,148 additional votes received
last night, and Folk, La Toilette and
Taft now are closely punched for
fourth. fifth and sixth places.
Over the entire field of candidates
Roosevelt continued to gain slightly.
His entirevot was 2,421 more than
had been cast for all the other can
didates. Bryan made a sharp gain
on Clark, but is yet 1873 votes be-
hind the speaker.
The intense interest the farmers
are taking in the presidential poll
was displayed in the comments ac-
companying many of the votes.
From Beloit, Kas., came this bit
of expression: Not for T. R. Too
much bluff.
Coyle, Kas.: I'm tired of voting
for sworn liars. Don't put me down
for any of them.
Martinsburg. w. Va: T.R, the
poor mans friend? Yes. T. R., the
rich mans friend? Yes. No one
else for me.
Sanger. Tex: Lots of Democrats
in the South are for Roosevelt. He
is the strongest man we haye got.
Trenton. Mo-: Clark is the man
who does things.
Muncie, Ind: Bryan for me, not
slayer of helpless animals.
Dresden, Kas.: First vote for a
Republican President in twenty
eight years. T. R. has proved his
ability.

The advertising merchant is the one
who does the business in these days Of
push and enterprise. There are more
newspaper readers today than ever be-
fore in the history of the world. The
newspaper places your business under
the eyes of the buyer. He sees what
he wants and, knowing where to find
it, looks up the wide-awake inert hant
who asked him to come and see him.

George w. Egan, the republican
candidate for governor, who is going
to speak in Wagner on Friday evening
May 10. saws IN his campaign speeches
that he has spent $35. 1000 defending
his character since he came to South
Dakota. Let George do it. We know
of some men who are running for gov
ernor who have never had to spend q
cent to uphold their good name.
Among voters generally this is not an
imperative qualification.

Under the heading, "The shame o f
the Dakotas," the Courier News,
published at Fargo, North Dakota,
presents Its compliments to the senior
United States senator from this state
and offers its sympathy to South Dak-
kota who "feels bitterly the humilia-
tion Senator Gamble has brought upon
the state by his vote on both the in
vestigating committees by which
wnitewashes of Lorimer were re.
ported. North Dakota also hangs her
head in shame.."
The Courier-News editorial, pub
lished in the issue of last Friday, is as
follows: Every state which CLAIMS q
senator who voted both times to white
wash Senator Lorimer is ashamed of
its. representative In the upper house.
OF those who voted for Lorimer in the
last congress and who have since come
before their people for reelection not
one has been returned and many have
refused to take their record into an
other campaign. preferring to take nc
chances. and have retired to private
life. Fifteen senators who voted for
Lorimer have either retired or have
been defeated at the end of the session
and of the five senators who did not
vote OH the Lorimer issue, only Lor.
inner himself remains.
"South Dakota feels bitterly the
humiliation Sentor Gamble has brought
upon the state by his vote on both the
investigating committees by which
the whItewashes of Lorimer were re-
ported. North Dakota also hangs her
lad in shame that she, too, has q sen.
ator who voted or Lorimer year age
to accep the committee whitewash and
thereby indicating that he will agair
vote, when the time comes to keep the
unspeakable Lorimer in the senate.

defeated, If the voters only had tn.
chance to get at him in the coming
primary"

ready to bolt Egan's nomination. while
Byrne Is such a weak personality that
no enthusiasm can ever be aroused or
him. And apropos of both state and
aatlonal situation: Ibid you ever
notice the similarity between Roose-
welt and Egan? Both talk principally
about themselves. Both avoid real,
live issues, such as the tariff. good
roads, etc. If they !, should succeed,
there would no longer be republican
party in nation or state, merely q
Roosevelt socialistic party and an Egan
egotistical party"
