JONES OF ROCK"

George Z. Jones, commonly
known among politicians through.
out Minnesota and North Dakota
as Clones of Rock, was in the
city Friday evening, en- route to
his home in MaLoure. Mr.. Jones
was, an intimate friend of the
FRank family for many years and
went to Washburn Friday, where
he attended the funeral Of II. E.
Funk. Mr.. Jones said, HThis
tragedy has depressed me terrib-
Fly, for Frank Funk was not}only
an intimate friend Of mine, but
one of Gods noblemen and low
ed by all who knew him. The
motive which caused the assas-
sin to take his life was not born
of any wrong Frank had ever
done any man, but l believe was
born of an ambition in a morbid
mind for gain. l can hardly
make it seem possible that such
a man was shot down and is TAX
