 IT deals with q case in which 4ather over-rules the doctors who declare that his son, having met with 5.r accident. must undergo d surgical o,eratfon. To all appearances the bicycle accident that had happened to the young son of the Marquis de D1aneeli was but a slight one, but at q consultation of doctors it was de c.ded that gangrene had set in and recessitated the immediate amputa- ticn of his hand.
 The father, having a horror of sur eeons. forbids the operation and takes the boy home. In the next act another consultation occurs and the doctors inform the father that this time the entire arm must be ampu- tated The father again goes into rage and forbids the operation; but the mother. in order to save the life cf her son, orders it to be carried out.
 The operating surgeon replies that 1T. the case of a minor the permission of the father is necessary and refuses to operate under the circumstances There is another violent outbreak in the household and the father again refuses to allow the operation and in the midst of the argument the un- fortunate child breathes his last.

A Pennsylvania Fire Alarm

The average constituent of a Con
gresham, when interested in any
measure. is especially impressed with
the slow grind Of the legislative mill.
II seems an interminable time on or.
binary matters after bill is intro.
duced before the first. second and
third readings occur, and the COM
mittees have laid their strangle hold
upon il. 1t requires large number
of men in Washington to keep track
of bills in the different stages, Con-
gresham j. Hampton Moore, who is
ready for a debate with both fists
when anything concerning the Quak-
err City appears, tells Philadelphia
story that has been appropriated to
illustrate tardy action on legislative
matters.
In a village near Philadelphia the
inhabitants swarmed about n little
house near the station. The new fire
engine had arrived and the hose was
playing. There was intense excite
ment. The captain of the new bri-
gade was there in full uniform, and
the so-westers were worn with
jaunty air. "How do you gather to-
gether this splendid fire brigade7"
n stranger marveled. "You do not
seem to have fire alarm system, or
telephone or telegraph communica-
tons here, not even a Liberty Bell.
How do you summon your fire en-
gines and corps to fret"
"Oh," drawled the Fire Chief, Eve
send them a postal card. That is
quick enough, for you know we have
slow burning fires in this town.
But there was nothing slow about
the fires burning in J. Hampton's
black eyes when he changed the sub
iect to the "ffty-seven varieties, of
Congressman who visited Philadel-
phia and promised support on the
dry dock appropriation, which they
forgot after they had returned from
Philadelphia and the warmth of the
pepper-hot had subsidized. That ex-
, , plains the rapid fire of postal cards
from the Pennsylvania district that
! poured upon the "ffty-seven" for
getful Congressman. remembered by
Mr.. Moore.
Those postal cards carried the cal
of traditional Philadelphia fir,

MARKETLEIIER

Kansas City, June 2.-Monday
glnts at Chicago have come to be the
rule in the cattle trade, and the rule
was working today. The supply here
was moderate at 5000 head, and
prices are steady in spite of a de-
cline at the Lake market. Recent
events show Chicago to be the beefy
market, local supplies running rather
light, even when some stock cattle
en- route to the Northwest are includ-
ed here. Prices made small gains
last week, except on heavy fed steers
which are no better than a week ago.
Some big Nebraska steers brought
$S.l5 and 1926 today, and light
mixed yearlings went up to $40.
Pulpers brought $3.50 to $8.05 today,
about like IA week ago, and caked
Texas steers sold at 1915 to $765
today, a shade better than last week,
and considered strong today. Grass
steers from South Texas brought
$3.50 to 500 today. Country pur-
chases are up TO the limit Of the sup
ply, good pastures and hopeful crop
prospects stimulating the trade even
though stock cattle prices are higher
than a year ago, and fat cattle prices
are lower.
Bulk of the thin cattle sell at So
to $7S5, few around $S. Call for
feeders is not urgent, country taste
running largely to stock grades, with
"come on" ability. A condition that
will add extreme cattle scarcity on
the Pacific Coast. Buyers from that
section are making purchases within
a radius of 1000 miles at this time,
and some fresh beef is being sent
from Eastern packing centers to the
hotel trade on the Pacific Coast.
1 Hogs are selling well, though meet
ing few reverses. Eastern killers
are taking some hogs, and that is u
strong feature. The stuff is cutting
up at a profit here also, and growers
are making money, an agreeable sit
uation all around. Run today is g.
900 here, prices off cents, top 1872
bulk 1856 to $50. Average weight
last week, 20S pounds.
Sheep and lambs are uneven,
sheep holding up strong, lambs weak
ening. Run today, 1900, yearline
lambs up TO 1906 to $3.50, clipped
native muttons up to 1913, a few
goats available at $3.50 to "a.

Turn Aside the Stream

The trade current that has been
setting steadily in the direction Of the
big mail order houses can now be di-
verted toward the small merchant.
The parcel post allows each indi-
vidual storekeeper to develop a mail
order business within his own dis
trict at lower postal rate than any
one outside Of it can ship goods to
customers within it. BY adopting the
same advertising methods which the
mail order houses have used for their
own benefit and profit in the past and
organizing an efficient shipping de-
partment .he small merchant is now
enable to build up profitable trade
in greatly widened field.
The parcel post is educating buy
ers to know that the store nearer
home can serve them just as rea-
sonably and far more quickly and
satisfactorily than the mail order
house.
Help the good work along.

of making any one else who

S. NJ. r. HURT
Announces For County Attorney

In this issue. Of the COURIER
we announce the candidacy of
S. M. R. Hurt, of West Liberty,
for the democratic nomination
for County Attorney of Morgan
county. Mr.. Hurt was educated
at Vanderbilt University, and is
a man of more than ordinary at
tianments in scholarship and
learning. A profound thinker
and ripe scholar he brings into
the practice Of his profession the
rare gifts of erudition and ap-
plication. He is conscientious to
a fault and the soul Of honor and
would be faithful to any trust
reposed in him. Absolutely de-
void of fear and having none Of
of the politician, in the latter
day meaning Of the term, he
would in the discharge of a pub
lie duty chew to the line, let the
chips fall where they may.
The county attorneys Office is
a very important one, the most
important in our belief Of the
county Offices, and the man to dis
charge the duties Of that office
in a way to fully protect the
rights Of the taxpayers must
needs be man Of deep thought,
a thorough understanding Of the
law, and above all upright and
honorable, and with the lenoline
courage to do right regardless Of
factions, cliques and grafters.
We believe that Mr.. Hurt has
all of these attributes, and should
the voters Of Morgan county
honor him by the nomination we
feel that he will reflect credit up
on the position.
We ask for him your consider
alton in the coming primary.

through our Interstate Commerce
Law. We have the saloon keep
ers from among us. The moon
shine still" is a thing of the past
The "bootlegger" can't peddle
long till he is kidnapped. The
only liquor dealers we have left
on our hands now are the saloon
keepers of other states and the
G. 20. railroad. These are made
legal by the Interstate Commerce
Law.
We want to repeat what we
said last week, that officers and
leaders who drink are sowing to
the wind and will reap the whirl-
wind; but did you know your boy
would be in the whirlwind? We
must get sober officers, teachers
and preachers! Can you afford
to risk your boy with that in
structor who gets drunk when he
pleases? If you think he will
not influence your boy, you are
certainly mistaken. Children do
not hear much we say when our
actions drown our words. What
is the great inspiration in the
christian world today? Is it the
words of Christ or is it that noble
life he lived? Any teachers life
lives longer in the lives of his pu-
pills than do his words.
If we want good children we
must live the right kind of lives
before them, and give our neigh
bors the benefit Of our influence,
and vice versa. We are all a
bunch of towards! We will
stand around with long faces on
and countenance vice and drunk
enness for fear our protest will
not suit some devil-missionary,
or knocks us out of a penny, or
causes us too lose a vote, while
our boys are headed straight for
hell-some Of them with their
seven league boots on God pity
such timid creatures as we are!
May the time hurriedly come
when we will have the courage
OF our convictions, and stand up
for the right regardless of con-
sequences,

Example in Enterprise.

Away down in Carlisle county,
in the extreme western part of
the State, a hardware firm in the
good village Of Bardwell, takes
space in the local paper to an
nounce that it has issued a cata-
logue. The public also is inform
ed.that the firm is making prices
lower than the mail order houses
in the big cities and is preparing
to supply its customers by parcels
post with anything in its line that
is mailable.
This is an example of enterprise
that is worthy of emulation by
country merchants. The big
mail-order houses will not take
any great amount of business "a
way from a firm which manifests
so much interest in the extension
of its trade. One reason why
many of the rural stores are suf-
fering from mail-order competi-
tion is because their proprietorS
are too hopelessy behind the times
to recognize the advantage of
using up-to-date methods in
holding onto theirssold customers
and in getting new ones.
The wideawake merchant is the
man who lets the community
know what he has to sell, who
uses newspaper space judiciously
and consistently, and who de-
votes thought to ways and means
of building up his business at
home, and who is not disturbed
by competitors either at home ol
abroad. This applys to the coun
try dealer as we'll as to the city
merchant, for the man who does
not make some intelligent effort
to keep his business going for
ward will inevitably find it going
backward. -Courier-Journal.
