MEDORA
From the Herald:

Through the medium of a Shower"
the young women of Medora con-
ferred many articles of useful house
hold nature on Mrs. Harry Cohee
Monday night at the J. o. Gray home.
Mrs. Cohee is about to go to New
England, where Mr.. Cohee went some
time ago.
J. B. Harmon had intended to 20
south for the winter and had planned
going through Missouri and the
Ozark country by wagon. He has
now abandoned the journey, bought
the place owned by his son, Rob, and
will spend the winter, at least, in the
Bad Lands. After a man has spent
something" over 80 years of his life in
these hills and in this latitude, while
conditions may not be ideal, they are
the ones he knows the best how to
meet. -
Floyd Lathrop and Miss Jennie Bell
were married at Beach Sunday and
returned to Medora that night. Mr..
Mr.. Lathrop went next day to his
claim down-river, to which he is pre-
pairing to move. Sunday evening
some of the men of town attempted to
have some fun with the groom. I'm
expected and vigorous resistance on
his part caused them to give wei the
attempt. The young people are well
and favorably known here, both hav-
ing worked for some time in Medora.

corn and sewing and jelly being shown

state treasury, but is also paid out,
the state serving merely as trustee.
By failure to include the payment
out, the income appeared $4,000
larger than it is in the first state
ment of facts passed upon by the
court.
The most careful investigation up
on the part Of those engaged in the
litigation for the purpose of estab-
fishing the procedure of the board of
equalization shows no ground what
ever for charges Of dirty politics
against the board of equalization,
the auditor or the court. That the
error was not discovered until after
the election was the solitary ground
of suspicion.
The charges against the governor
irK this connection are just as vapor-
GUS, for knowing that it would SUBJ
ject him to criticism yet he steadily
insisted in bringing all the facts fully
before the court and the people. In
reality, the governor has little control
over the appropriations excepting his
power of veto when the legislature
passes such bills. This he used vigor-
ously and is now justified in so doing
Suppose the governor had not We
toed the large number of %appropria-
tions made by the last Legislature
which met that fate, where would our
finances be now? We advise our
readers to keep their minds open and
not allow themselves to be prejudiced
or made suspicious; the whole truth
must and will come out and will be
found to corroborate these state
ments.
The unusual action of the supreme
! court in sitting with the board OF
, equalization to adjust the details OF
their final decision surprised the
state and caused some inquiries as to
the object and final result, and some
criticism, but this act raj also caused
by the unusual condition which had
resulted in an emergency.
The Courier-News is confident that
there has been no skullduggery, no
Juggling of facts to deceive the
people and nothing censurable in the
conduct of this matter. Men involved
and concerned have differed widely
from each other, as is natural, but
we do not believe there is either cor
ruption or the twisting of official po-
sition for personal political advant-
age of a faction to be found in it.

sumptive proof that he is a rascal.
A UNIQUE WILL

Charles T. Thompson, a wealthy
Minneapolis attorney and a member
OF the executive commission Of the
Presbyterian church in America, left
a will which is so unique that it has
attracted wide attention. MI. Thomp-
SON was n of the leading church
workers of Minneapolis and at the
outset of his will which is free from
legal verbiage, Mr.. Thompson said:
Il firmly believe in the Chris
tan religion and in the Christian
church as the divinley appointed
agency through which the great
est and most lasting good can be
done for the betterment and up-
lift of humanity. I mean by
church the church of Jesus Christ,
in the broadcast sense, for though
l am a Presbyterian and prefer
for myself that denomination,
regard it as only one branch of
the church. I have done much of
my most delightful and success
full Christian work in interde-
nominational movements and or
ganizations." +
Explaining his .bequest of 81, 900
each to his three sons, MI. Thompson
said that he believed young men
should be left to their own resources
in making a living. On this subject
he wrote:
al believe every man owes it to
his children to live before them
an upright life, to set before
them an example of useful and
decent living, give them as good
an environment as possible, edu-
cate them, teaching a good char
acter is the most valuable asset,
and then throw upon them the
responsibility of making their
own living and achieving their
own success" Then he added,
"And it certainly is much safer
for them to work for what they
are to possess" d.,
