first prize in contest conducted by the
Colorado branch of the Daughters of
the American Revolution. has been
published in full in several newspapers
of the state, and a number of others
have made interesting mention Of the
contest, its winner, and her home
town, Ksota. Says the Greeley Stand
ard: The essay is one of unusal merit to
come from the pen Of an eighth grade
pupil, and proves conclusively that the
plains of Weld county are productive of
great talent.

COURT HOUSE PLANS

COURT HOUSE PLANS
garding that proposed new court house.
l make no apology for third time dis
cussing the matter in your columns. l
think all will agree that a proposal Of
any kind of public improvement in
volving $3.50, 900 expenditure Of the
peoples money merits the most care
full and deliberate consideration and dis
cussion; and besides all that if l am
thought to need any defense for my po-
sition may instance the fact, legiti-
mately hope, that at time when our
commercial club was boosting for this
same new court house proposition and
the old Greeley Tribune and the Re-
publican of that day were oblivious a.
new born babes of any wrong doing
geing on about them Mr.. Roy Ray Of
the Poudre Valley in his editorial col
umns and myself in the Old Greeley
Tribune of that time, much to the dis
gust Of the boosters and the easy going
public began the discussion and kept it
up which resulted in the general over
turn which followed in our county af-
fairs.
You recently noted in your columns
that great change in public opinion
had taken place regarding the proposed
new court house. I presume you re-
fsrred to the straw vote taken by the
''Poudre Valley" on the subject but
several pertinent observations can be
made regarding that vote. Such votes
are known to be hardly ever a reliable
indication of public opinion, and Mr.. Ray
himself notes the fact that the total
vote was much too small to afford a
satisfactory criterion by which to judge
of the public sentiment even in Greeley,
and he also especially calls attention to
the fact that outside Of Greeley q ma
jority of votes were against either new
wing or a complete new building. And
regarding that phase of the subject let
me say that as one of the reasons why
we should Immediately move for an ex-
pensive new structure it is, and has been
for some time privately urged by its
advocates that as the people out in the
Grover region are moving for . new
county we ought to saddle them with
their portion of the big debt we are pro-
posing in the erection of this new build
ing, before they get away from us. 1
need hardly designate this sort Of an
argument with the proper language Of
condemnation, but supposing it to be
entirely legitimate and that we are
justified in imposing our wishes in the
matter on the people Of the county out
side the city Of Greeley. l have. another
suggestion to make regarding that straw
vote. l believe it win be conceded that
at least the people who pay the taxes
should be the ones who determine
whether we need or can afford to build
an entire new building at this time, and
looking at it in that light l would like to
know what proportion of these straw
votes were real property owners and
nav taxes on homes and real estate in
Greeley. have been informed by those
who profess to know that those who pay
little, or less, are in the majority, and
at all events l suggest to our commits
sioners that if they really wish to know
the sentiment of Greeley, even sup
posing that no one cares what outside
voters think about the matter. that they

NEW QUESTION IS RAISED.
Can Man Refuse to Take "KnOcketl
Down Property:

Whether man can withdraw his
bid and decline 10 buy after an arti-
Gle has been knocked down" to him
at public auction, is the question at
issue in what promises to be a long
drawn out legal fight started in jas
tice court at Cedar Falls Saturday.
A. A. Zemxe, a farmer near James
vile, is suing G. NJ. Hall, neighbor-
ing farmer, to recover $3.50, that
being the amount Zemke lost when
Hall refused to accept small patch
of standing corn bought at auction
and what Zemke later received at pri-
vate sale.
Hall maintains the corn was mis-
represented by Zemke before the
auctioneer disposed of it. Hall claims
he inspected the field the day Of TIE
sale, found it did not measure up to
Zemke's claims, and then and there
told the latter he would not accept
it at the price he bid. Zemke de.
clares the corn vas all that he rep
resented il to be. The case promls.
es to rival the famous Jones county
calf case.

MARRIAGE LIZ ENSES TAXED.
Ten Cent Stamp Required Since
December 1st.

That the validity of marriages per-
formed after Dec. may be called ir
to question unless 10-cent revenue
stamp is affixed TO the marriage GER
tificate is the contention of minister
who has taken the matter up with
Louis Murphy, collector Of internal
revenue for Iowa.
The contention" the collector
says, lis hardly a tenable one. The
act of Oct. %, commonly referred to
as the war revenue emergency act,
requires stamp on certificates re-
quired by law. A marriage license
to marry is issued by a clerk of court
in Iowa, two certificates are issued
with it. One of these is returned by
the officiating minister or magistrate
to the clerk of courts to become par;
of a public record. The other is de-
lvered to the newlyweds. 1t is this
certificate which must bear 10 cent
revenue stamp. The certificate re
turned to the clerk requires NJ
stamp
But, Mr.. Collector, what about
the validity Of the marriage II the
stamp isn't affixed?"
Take that to the courts II you
enjoy it," was the retort. Failure tc
affix the proper stamp will subjoc'
the person remiss in this duty to
heavy fine or Imprisonment. The gov
ernment doesn'. want to put an.
brides or grooms in jail and 1t want

SEVEN CARLOADS AUTO PLATES.
That's the. Order to Supply Demand
i'm This state for 1918.

The first carload of automobile
plates for 1915 arrived at the state
house Monday. The motor vehicl =
department is pre- pared to begin is
suing the plates Dec. Is.
Up to the present time 1000 auto
owners haye registered their cars
for 1915. The department sent OUT
letters a short time ago urging driv
ers Of cars to get their applications )
in early SO as to avoid the delay Cf
getting plates on Jan. 1. The re-
Fsponse has not been as great as eY-
pected. Last year more than 2O,-
900 car owners got in early with
their checks. and at that time there
were 10000 less cars in the state
than there are az present.
Iowa now has 1O5,S00 automobiles
in use The highest number issued
is III, 800. From this is deducted
5000 numbers which are reserved Tor
motorcycles. New cars are beipS
registered at the rate of forty per
day. The department yesterday sent
in an order for an additional 800 pai"
of plates to supply the demand for
1914 plates between now and the
first of the year.
The 1915 auto plates are heavier
than the 1914 plate. 1t will require
seven freight Gals to transport the
plates from the factory at st. Paul
to Des Moines. The 1915 plate is tCo
light to last more than one year. II
the legislature decides to make one
plate do for three years, as has been
recommended by the efficiency and
reform committee, heavier plate
will be secured

What Are RaiSinS and PruneS?

Perry, Ia, Nov. 3O.-Whether
rais.ns, prunes and other forms OF
dried fruit are products of the farm
or whether they are manufactured
products is a question which Judge
w. w. Cardell of the superior court
of Perry will be called upon to decide
this week The question was
brought UP by the arrest of S. Whe-
ton of Armona, Cal, who has been
here for several days selling fruit
from a car. He was arrested for vi
olating a city ordinance relating to
itinerant merchants and has elect
ed to fight the case. He contends
that under the laws of Iowa he has a
right to sell farm products without
paying a city license and the city's
officials maintain that the process OF
curing the fruit makes it manufac-
tured product. The case VIII be
heard Friday.

GREENE MAN FINED.
Administered Cholera Serum With.
out License.

j. B. Tracy of Greene was arrang-

ed with administering hog cholera
serum without the necessary state
license. He was fined $25 and
costs, the whole amount totalil Z
$3435. The action was brought
State of Iowa VS.. ]. B. Tracy, charg-
ed with violation of the state law
relative to veterinary surgery by vac
cinating hogs with cholera serum
without the necessary state license.
The case came before Judge Cum
Minis and was held at Cedar Falls.
1t appears that Tracy did his work
in the vicinity of Cedar Falls when
apprehended and the farmers for
whom he had done the work were
subpoenaed as witnesses. The far
mers testified that Tracy had done
their work and charged them sc per
head for the services. All the farm
ers were satisfied with the work he
did for them and so testified, full
ly believing his treatment was all
that he claimed for it and they were
splendid witnesses for his defense in
the case.
The chief complaint came from
the local veterinaries of Cedar Falls
who said they did not feel they We're
getting a square deal from the state
due to the fact that they are requir
ed to procure license as we'll as
diploma to practice, and in order tt
obtain such they are compelled t
spend years to obtain college edu
cation and which course is expensive
to them. They argued if every fel
low who came along was priviledget
to use his, "a sure cure,' they want
ed to know it. Tracy paid the tin'
and the case was dismissed.

MOOSERS HAD 1900 VOTES.
POst.NIOrtem Shows a Great Decline
Judge QuartOn Made the Best
Race.

With the best showing that can be
put together oIt of the official re-
turns on the late election, the pro
gressive party has to it's credit a
strength of only 1900 votes, poliii.
clans with taste for post-mortem
examination have discovered.
They obtained the total by adding
the votes of all the progressive con-
gressional candidates as progressives
have suggested ought to be done to
get at the full bull moose strength.

None Of the candidates came up to
the total vote OF the progressive can
didate in the election two years ago.
The returns figured in this man
ner give the moosers some 1000
more votes than were polled by the
head of the ticket. At that the total
is more than $4,000 less than the
total rolled up ty Judge Stevens in

vote polled by Roosevelt.
