Last Tuesday afternoon, while
helping Geo. Benson put a new rope
in the hay carrier in the big; barn,
the door which he was standing on,
and which was supported by the
carrier rope. gave way throwing
him to the ground, distance of
about twenty-five feet. Roy struck
Eon his hands with such force that
both bones, in each arm were brok-
ZEN, the bones of the right arm being
broken in two places, beside the
broken bones Roy sustained num-
Der of very severe bruises. The
injuries were treated by the two
doctors from Hurley and Roy is
resting as easily as could be expect
Led under the circumstances. Roy
is thesseeond son Of Hon. JohnsLa
finas, and only this season, with his
brother Sam. took over the manage
ment of the noted Lakings.. farm.
The injury will keep him from active
labor for the balance of the season
at least. Roy has the sympathy Of
all his friends and acquaintance in
his misfortune, and if good wishes
will help him any, his recovery will
be rapid.

on the issuance Of bonds in the

the matter, it will not take SIDES IN

THE MAJESTY OF
THE LAW UPHELD
County Officers Do Their Duty and
Browne Dispossessed of His Goat

On last Friday afternoon. while
the editor Of the Hecald was en-
deavoring to figure out some way of
making one dollar do the work of
two, he was surprised by an invita-
tion rendered in person from, Sheriff
Baily to 90 on a little automobile
trip to Centeryille. Disliking to
wound Mr.. Bailey's sensitive ma
ture, the invitation was accepted.
The ride across country with this
genial gentleman was much enjoyed
but on arrival at the metropolis Of
south Turner County, which by the
way has rightfully been dubbed the
abode of the damned" the en-
bryo pen-pusher of said Herald was
rudely told that he was under arrest
and was rushed to an obscure
office" in one of Centerville's sky
scrapers wherein sat the court" /,
said court being Of Falstaffian pro-
portions and wearing as disguise
an immense pair of automobile
goggles and an air of wisdom that
would have completely routed the
famous Wouter Van Twiller himself.
In one corner of the room sat a
young gentleman of SNUG appear
ance and learned mien who glibly
informed the poor earth worm from
the musk rat town on the banks of
Mud Lake. that back in the early
history Of the county he had will
fully, maliciously, completely and
with felonious intent busted 3
certain statute Of the sovereign
state of South Dakota. said statute
compelling the owners and drivers
of motor cars to pay exorbitant
prices for bright colored tags with
which to adorn their vehicles. After
an elaborate exchange Of courtesies,
this law breaker from Hurley
was allowed to consult a file Of cal.
endaFs Of ancient vim ntage in an en-
deayor to locate the date of the al.
legged complaint. After much re.
seach the defendant decided that On
said date ne was Of legal age and
amenable to the law SO pleaded
guilty to the charge and peacefully
allowed the court to relieve him 81
$3.50.
The ride home was much quiete,
than the trip down, as this pool
fool was trying to figure out where
in it paid to be the goat for others
\ also thinking that he had paid {
high price for the fine ride ane
pleasant company. Some little tinls
was also spent 10 wondering why {
violation Of the law was allowed Il
20 without prosecution until al
parties IN the matter were graz
headed and round shouldered. But
The way Of the transgressor il
hard and the bumps are bound Ii
come unless the statute Of limita
ton is used.

voting machines. and, as such, should
be defeated by men standing unequivo-
cally against such machines and such
tactics.
The Progressive candidates who
went on record against the voting ma

prevent their imposition on the voters,
were Albert Anderson and Marcus D.

ers; F. M. Jones, c. B. Hunt, Richard
Davenport and Hugh Allen, for the
county council.
The other Progressive candidates
for the county council. Park Gipe, Lee

unable to attend the meeting. Mr..
Nusbaum, who was informed later,
however, OF the action taken by his
fellow candidates, expressed himself
as being in entire accord with them
