be had for 10 cents and if you are
indisposod we suggest that you get it,
anyone can afford it, most of us have

is it? Well, it's the New Testament
Read it, study it, live up to its teach

caught up in the arms of Jesus in
that haven of sweet repose that knows
no distrust or death. If you have a
duty to perform-and you have-do it.
Don't stay away from church because
the preacher does not suit your par

because you don't want to be there
you are failing to faithfully discharge
your Christian duty. The all import

Recent Conviction In Seattle Expected

SEATTLE, Sept. 19.-Honest mer-
chants and the business men of the
state see in the conviction and SEN
tence of ID. Thurman, bankrupt mer
chant of Seattle by the federal jury, an
epoch marking step in the raising of
business ethics of the state. This con-
viction Is the first in Washington on
the charge of concealing assets from

ed to IA months in the federal prison.
Similar cases have been tried before
but no convictions have resulted. The
good results that are expected to fol-
low this conviction. which has now set
definite precedent, will no doubt
mean the future punishment of all
cases of dishonesty of this sort. and
upright business men see in it def
mite encouragement to higher stand

They had an election in a congress
sional district in Maine last Monday.
Politicians everywhere were interest
ed, because it was supposed to show
the drift of political sentiment since
last November. The Democratic can
didate polled Wilson's strength, while
the Republican candidate, who was
elected, left the Progressive far be-
hind, a very poor third. From this
and few similar incidents, political
sharps predict the alignment of Pro-
gressives with either the Democratic

President Wilson says or does some

actions and words seem to be making
him more popular with the people all

Great Wheat Crop in Douglas County.
(Mansield News)
r With all threshing outfits in this Sec
ton working overtime to make the
best of the excellent weather, reports
of the big yield of winter wheat are
coming in daily. and as compared with
the reports from other wheat centers
the northern part of Douglas county
is showing the better record, due, no
doubt, to the large acreage of fall
sown grain that is to be found in this
section. Wheat hauling started in
earnest last Friday and since that time
the warehouses have presented a busy
appearance, some of them finding it
necessary to run night and day
crew in order to keep the grain NOV
ing 1t is estimated that there Is
about sixty-fve hundred bushels COM
ing into Mansfield each day now, and
there is little doubt but that this place
will hold it's own as the largest pri-
mary wheat shipping point on the
Great Northern system in this state.
Reports show that Withrow is also re-
ceiving a large amount of wheat and
our neighboring town stands a good
show of crowding Harrington out of
second place as a wheat shipping sta
ton, and give to this part of Douglas
county the undisputable right to claim
to be the best wheat growing section
In the state.
