FINE is RENTED

Carl Kraue, residing in the vicin-
ity OF Perch lake. In the northern part
of the county, was arrested Tuesday by
Deputy Game Wardens Wilson, Gould
and Andrews and was brought TO this
city and late Wednesday afternoon
was given a hearing, before Justice
Curley, Prosecuting Attorney Waffen
appearing for the people. Rrause was
harged with trapping beaver with
out license. It was also claimed he
was attaching seals to the beaver hides
belonging to man in Indiana He
plead guilty to the charge and on
recommendation of Prosecuting Attor-
ney Waffen he was fined $40 and $l5
costs. On recommendation of the pro-
secutor the fine was RENTED.
Deputy Andrews took exception to
this action of the court and prosecutor
claiming that Krause was an old
offender and should be severely dealt
with.
Mr. Andrews claims that such ac-
tions tend to put premium on viola
tions OF the game and fish laws and
brings the actions of the game war
dens into disrepute. He further states
that it was quite noticeable that the
costs in the case, which were Jumped
at $40, were not RENTED.

Community Cooperation

The postmaster of small
town made the statement to
me not long ago that the
amount of money sent ont OF
that town for mail order pur-
ChaSeS was more than the
combined sales of any two
merchants there. His estimate
did not include the purchases
made by citizens personally
while i'll Out-of-town stores.
A condition of this kind is
really appalling, and | wish
that | could impress upon YOU,
and every other reader Of this
paper, the Importance of con-
sidering your local merchants
to the extent that Won would
carefully compare local values
and prices with those Quoted
elsewhere before sending or
carrying your money out OF
your community.
The only plausible excuse
that can possibly be advanced
for not supplying your wants
and needs Ill your local mar
ket, is All advantage in price
or quality somewhere else, OF
the fact that YOU cannot get
the specific articles wanted
from your local stores. In any
Oh these cases your merchants
are to blame, and no good
merchant expects your patron
age unless he can offer YOU
the same prices and value!

That it is 70 your distinct
advantage to spend your
money at home, all things
equal, is not to be questioned,
therefore it is your duty to
yourself and to your reighbors
to compare and weigh the
matter carefully before re-
fusing to do SO.
There are recognized lead
ing brands i'll all lines of
merchandise offered YOU, and,
10 matter what article YOU
contemplate purchasing, it is
safe to say that some one of
Your local stores handles one
or more of these brands, the
merits of which YOU have been
made acquainted with through
the advertising of the manu-
features of same. Prices of
trade-markcd- advertised pro-
dIcts are generally the same
everywhere as are also styles
and quality.

ANNUAL MEETING
School Election Saturday Quite
Live|y---Last Minute Opposition

What promised to be a tame
election of School District No. IL
last Saturday evening developed
into quite scrap before the day
was ended and brought out an i'm
mense vote. The Miner was mis-
informed last week when it was
stated that Chas. Trezona was a
candidate for reelection. Mr.. Ire
iona decided for business reasons
not to become candidate and so
announced on the morning of the
election. His many friends were
somewhat taken aback by his deci-
sion. 1t was thought that owing
to the large amount of new work
being done at present by the dis
trict that the old board would
stick until the work was completed.
Mr.. Fenske, the other outgoing
director decided to be a candidate.
Early Saturday morning opposi-
ton developed in the persons of
Arthur Toms and Fred B. James.
The polls were opened at S o'clock
and from that time on until a
steady stream of voters visite,, the
Central school building where the
annual meeting and election was
held. A particular pleasing fea-
ture of the election was the large
number of ladies voting.
372 votes were cast and the re-
suit as tabulated was as follows:
Arthur Toms, 272
A. J. Fenske, 1913
F. B. James. ---------------181
Scattering, Observation-Disclosures
Mr.. Fenske has served on the
board for the past two years and
his services were acceptable as was
shown by the vote cast. Mr.. Toms
the new member elected is we'll
known and his popularity was at
tested by the large vote cast in his
favor. He is a graduate of the
Ely schools and is employed as
assistant cashier of the First State
Bank. 1t is believed he will make
a valuable member of the board.

column gives the minutes of the
former and also the annual meeting
