 to be using scales that bear no such

LIFE PRESENTER

In the July American Magazine d man who has had twenty five years matrimonial experiences says that he and his wife were growing farther apart and constantly quarreling. The family would have been wrecked had il not been for two things which he describes as follows:
 First was the baby. a healthy, charming child to whom we were in tensely devoted; for months the baby was about the only subject we could agree upon; the other safeguard was our sense of humor. l have since thought that no two persons should marry unless one or the other has q sense of humor. With us the sense of humor usually came to the rescue at the most trying times. One or the other of us would be struck with the ludicrOuS feature of our quarrel and laugh, and pretty soon we made up

STATE SUPREME COURT
 MAKES SPLENDID RECORD
Clear Calendar of Old Territorial Court and Dispose of all Ensuing Gases

That the supreme court of Arizona has set a record for the supreme courts of other states in the amount of work handled as we'll as for dispatch in ju- dicial procedure is evinced by the fact that since the court assumed it's duties in 1912 it has disposed of approM- matelv 300 cases. of which 100 were left over from the old territorial su- preme court This result has been ac- complished only by hard continuous and careful work on the part of the judges.
 Because there is practically no com pulsion in the disposing of cases on the calendar, delays and postponements of decisions are quite frequent occurrences in the procedure of similar courts in other states. It is the contrast which the work of the supreme bench in Ari zona presents to the practice elsewhere that makes the work of the judges all the more noteworthy and commend able.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

On last Saturday afternoon County
Clerk J. w. Hamilton and his assistant
Mr.. H. ID. Tomlinson were constantly
annoyed by sand dropping from the
plastering on their books, and Mr..
Hamilton had just suggested that they
put away the books and investigate to
see if the plastering overhead was
loose and liable to fall. Scarcely had
he uttered the words when a section of
plaster about four feet in diameter
crashed onto the desk where they had
Just been at work. 1t missed Mr..
Tomlinson' head by the sixteenth par
of an inch.
1t does seem that the old Palace of
Justice is going into a general decay,
and no funds avail with which to re-
pair it. The people of the county most
assuredly should vote reasonable
amount of bonds with which to make
the repairs absolut ely necessary to the
comfort and preservation of the struct-
ure, if not for the sake of county pride,
then for the safety of the officials
whose lives are imperiled every day
they work in the court house.

The SICK

1t Will be :. source of qualification to
the friend of Mir William Ray through
out the county to know that he con-
tinues to improve steadily and is hoped
and believed that he will make a quick
and complete recovery. Mr.. Ray was
operated upon for appendicitis on March
2Sth and for several days thereafter his
life was dispaired Of
Mr. John w. Walter continues in a
precautions condition at his home on
Lexington street in this city, and while
he shows some improvement in the last
few days, yet he is very sick man,
and because Of his advanced wears, ser
ioUs hopes are entertained for his re-
covery.
Dr. Wheeler's malady has developed
into typhoid fever. He is doing as well
as could be expected; he is at the home
Of Mrs. Isaac Hamilton on Water street
where every attention is being given
him, and Is hoped that the disease will
run its course without serious result.
Mr.. Peter Well who is i'll of typhoid
fever at the home of his sister near
Hyattsville, is somewhat improved. his
fever has commenced to subside and it
is thought that he will make rapid re-
coyery.

ARNOLD.

The remains OF little France Pope
Arnold, the infant daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs, j. V. Arnold of Birmingham, Ala.
were brought here on Monday and in
TERED in the family lot at Manse.
The dear little comforter only came a
few short weeks ago to brighten the
home of the parents, when its was
taken back to the arms of Him who
gave it, but the few short weeks which
it was spared to them was sufficient to
so endear it to them as to make the
parting almost unbearable. Mrs. Arnold
before her marriage was Miss Florence
Burnside, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. j.
G. Burnside of Point Leavell. The be-
reaved couple have the sympathy of

LOOKS BAD
FOR HELM.

The following from the Interior
Journal and the home of the Hon Harve
Helm, makes very interesting reading.
Hon L. M. Smith, who made such
a creditable record in the recent legis-
lature, and who was one of the few
members, of that body who came our
with flying colors, is receiving many
fiattering requests from different parts
of the Eighth District to become acan-
didate for Congress, and he has the
matter under serious consideration. In
her talk here on Moonlight Schools,
Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart paid out
Young representative the compliment of
saving that he was on the right side
for every question that came up in the
legislature, and Commissioner of Ag-
riculture Newman, in his talk to the
farmers Wednesday said that Mr..
Smith voted for every question that
came up for the aid or benefit of the
farmers. If Mr.. Smith decides to run
he will make it mighty interesting for
the other fellow"
Since Mr.. Helm voted against the
repeal of the Canal Toll bill, we are
not surprised at the above.

Governor James B McCreary opened
his campaign for the United States
Senate in a speech at Winchester KY,
last Monday. 1t was County Court
day and the Governor was honored with
a good crowd and his speech was well
received. While he failed to present
any new issues in his speech, he DOUBT
less pleased his followers by failing to
make any attack upon his three oppo-
nents for whom he expressed the warm
est personal feeling. What effect the
Governors speeches will have upon
the Democratic voters is yet to be
seen. He had always been strong
in Garrard County heretofore, always
getting the majority of the votes IN
Democratic primaries when he was a
candidate, but politics seem to be more
mixed this time than heretofore. While
we find considerable sentiment backing
his candidacy for the Senate and a
number of Democratic leaders who
will support him in this race We do not
believe he will get the majority of the
votes in the August primary in TINS
County.

CITY COUNCIL
REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING
Proves To Be Very Interesting.

The regular monthly meeting of the
City Council was held on Monday night
and proved very interesting one, the
most interesting part being futile eff
fort upon the part of some of our citi-
Zens to get introduced telephone and
electric light franchise, one quite
similar to the one offered some time
since, of which the council refused to
take cognizance. The prososed fran
chise called for a standard Bell Tele-
phone rate in so far as the telephone
part of it was concerned, and the
electric light part called for rate of
II cents per kilOwatt, with minimum
charge of 81. 90 per month for private
individuals. The proposition met with
cold comfort, as no member of the
council was found who was willing to
introduce it, and it again failed to be-
come a matter of record upon the
councils book.
A permit was granted Mr.. Luther E.
Heron and his associates to erect a
building on Mr.. Herron's lot on Stan
ford street, the old Pherigo lot, the
building to be 40X90 feet, of concrete
blocks, two story with metal roof,
the lower or basement story to be used
as garage and the ground or second
floor as a moving picture show and
theater.
A permit was also granted the Little
john Amusement Co., to hold Street
Fair on the Ball Park lot during the
week of May llth.

quentIy as possible. as the laws enact
ed are for your government, the fran
chises granted are of just as much in
| terest to one citizen as another. The
funds administered are contributed by
the citizens in taxes. and they have a
right to, and should know how these
funds are expended. The citizens have
right to know and should know just
what legislation is proposed for the
government of the town, they are
deeply interested in every franchise
offered or granted, and they should
keep posted along these lines. and this
can only be done by attending the
meetings of the council.
