The reporter wondered how the
frail-appearing young woman hoped
to win a victory in fight which
heretofore has befallen the lot of the
Oregon National Guard.
Unusual Equipment Not Seen.
There was nothing to indicate that
she had any hatchets or bombs and
there was nothing on the surface to
show that she had any more ability
to close saloons than any ordinary
young woman.
But before the eastbound O.-W. r.
C n. train bearing Miss Hobbs de-
parted the mystery had been solved.
On the train, In addition to Miss
Hobbs, was Superintendent Lawson.
of the penitentiary. with five men
who were selected by Governor Yves,
some time ago to conduct anti-saloon
crusades.
1t is understood that Governor Wes,

for reinforcements If occasion arises

Copperfield only couple or three

orders 1t is expected she will public

Governor West declaring martial law
and will place the saloons in charge
of Mr.. Lawson and his men.

After lingering illness, Mrs.
J. S. Price, on Friday morning,
March 9th, passed to the Great
Beyond.
This news does not come as a
surprise to our people, as the
patient sufferer had been rum
ming what seemed to be a losing
race with Death for many weeks,
but from time to time, as some
little Improvement would be not
ed, hope for her recovery would
brighten, only to fade when her
condition would again become
worse. Care and medicine, with
all else within the power of those
about her to do, proved of no
avail, and Death, at last, was VIC
tor.
In her departure from this
life, her husband and family are
deprived of a devoted wife and
loving mother; her friends true
friend; her church an earnest
and conscientious worker; and
Meade one of her best citizens.
Mrs. Price has lived among us
for number of years, and was
highly respected wherever she
was known, she leaves behind
memories of a well spent life
which stand as monument to a
life not lived in vain.
The funeral services were
held last Saturday afternoon al
the Baptist church, Rev. Moore
officiating. The church crowd
ed with those who came to pay
their last tribute of respect, and
the beautiful floral offerings gave
evidence of the high esteem in
which the deceased was held,
The pail bearers who bore the
remains to their last resting
place in Graceland Cemetery
were; W. W. Pressly, F. s.
Sullivan, John Elliott, o. Hamil-
ton, r. A. Harper, and Geo.

GOOD SEED
GOOD YIELD
No Seed Should Be Planted
Without Being Tested

H. M. Cottrell, Agricultural
Commissioner of Rock Island
lines, was in Meade this week.
His mission here was to urge
the testing of seed before plant
ing, and to impress upon those
planting. the danger in poor
seed.
He reported cane seed in many
localities testing from nothing
up to ten percent, and other
varieties of seed testing proper
tionately low. The dry season
and the late rains, of last year
are blamed for the condition of
the seed.
Conditions were never more
favorable for crops of all kinds,
than at present, so beware! It
is up to those planting to be
sure of good seed. Don't plant
poor seed and then growl at the
weather, and everybody else, if
it doesn't grow Be sure of the
kind OF seed you plant. Test it
don't guess it is good, or take
some one else's word for it. Be
certain about it yourself--then
if it doesent grow it isn't your
fault. Millions of dollars will be
lost if poor seed is planted.
The prosperity of any town
depends upon the prosperity Of
the agricultural section sur
rounding that town, therefore il
is the duty of every business
man in Meade to boost for pure
seed.

MEADE WAS
THE WINNER
Protecsion Lost To Meade By A
Score Of - To 81

OF all the games of the season
the game played last Friday Was
the most exciting for several
reasons, the principle reason
being that it meant second place
for our team if they won-and
they won.
The Protection team played
q good game, but their playing
was out-classed by the home
team. The score was "a to 81
in Meade's favor. This is the
last game to be played here this
season.
No less interesting and excit-
ing was the Baptist-Methodist
game played the same evening.
This game was between the
members Of the Baptist Sunday
school who had defeated the
Presbyterian boys in game the
week before, and the Methodist
boys who challenged the win.
ners. This was good game.
Both teams played well, so well
that when time was called the
score was a tie, 10 to 10. The
tie was played of, the Methodist
team winning by two points.
A good crowd witnessed both
games.

1 houAS ouu buot tue real IdCtS SHOW
THAT the Hodges administration
has been aud is the most econo-
monical in recent years. Every
little while some new fact leaks
out which confirms the statemen,
of the Press Bureau. Here is a
new one which has been sup
pressed until now.
When Governor Hodges took
his Office, there were about three
hundred and seventy thousand
dollars in state bonds held by
the state school fund. The leg.
islature of 1908 made provisions
for setting aside a sinking fund
out of the general revenue of the
state for the purpose of paying
off these bonds. Our Republi-
can friends have been SO busy
spending the general revenue
fund, that they haye meyer been
able to set aside any considers
able amount of money for this
purpose. Two hundred and
eleven thousand dollars worth of
these bonds will mature July 1st
and they will be paid and can
celled. Of this two hundred and
eleven thousand dollars, one hun
dred and sixty thousand dollars
will have been accumulated out
of the general revenue fund of
the state for l913-l4.
Now the question for these
Republican, political bunco-
steerers to explain, is how it
comes about that the Hodges ad
ministration. with It's general
revenue income, curtailed by the
repeal of the Inheritance Tax,
can still save one hundred and
sixty thousand dollars in eigh-
teen months to apply on the state
debt.
There are some things that
even the least informed persen
can figure for himself. Even it
Stubs and Hodges had the
same amount of revenue to spend
and Hodges saves one hundred
and sixty thousand dollars in
months to apply on the
state debt, while Stubbs could
only put out a comparatively
small sum for that purpose in
four years, it demonstrates to
the mechanical certainty that
the stuff which has been enating
from the Auditor S Office through
the Republican State Central
Committee" to the effect that
administration has been
spending more money than the
Stubbs administration, is pure
and unadulterated'" moonshine.

How, then, shall we keep and add to the
reserve of strength that means so much!
