 Aggravated saloon condi- tionS in Lennon led to the adoption of the plan by which the saloon management CO., operates with the city,. Tn 1912 Lennon had 1,255 in- habitants and eight saloons: Each saloon paid an annual income of $500. It was a fight to the death among the saloons for enough patron age to make them pay. In the scramble for business or dinanceS and laws were set at naught and the result was that several of the saloons became the lowest kind of dives to make them "attrac- i've"

I was
 Gradually Breaking Down From Confinement to Store.

Mir. c. N. Petersen, dealer in fine boots, shoes and cigars, No. 132 South Main St, Council Bluffs, Iowa. writes:
 q cannot tell you how much good Peruna has done me. Constant con fnement in my store began to tell on my health and I felt that I was gradually breaking down.
 'I tried several remedies prescribed by my physician, but obtained no per manent relief until I took Peruna. I felt better immediately, and five bot ties restored me to complete health. I have been in the best of spirits since, and feel that owe my health to it."

 MT. Arthur G. Peterson, R. F. D. 21, Box q, O1nro, Wisconsin. He was in the habit of catching cold easily.
 He says: "It has been seven months now since I have taken any Peruna and I haven't felt the least touch of cold since, and I am positive that I am now rid of the tendency to catch cold. Peruna is a wonderful remedy"

Mutual marriage is rather new fashion. Men uesd to get their wives by capture or by purchase. They might get the fathers consent by by trading him beads or by cutting off his head. The girls consent was not considered necessary until a few cen tuiies ago, and in many places is even at this day of no importance.
 For some centuries marriage was dominated by the church. The cere- mony was performed with great sol emnity becau SC God was felt to be a party to the affair; and for this req son, he being considered changeless, divorce was not to be thought of ex- cept through the intervention of his earthly regent at Rome.
 The United States refuses to con- sider the supreme being a party to the marriage contract. It admits for those who marry the right to believe that God is binding them together, and to have one of his many ostensi- ble agents perform the ceremony; but for all purposes of state control it declares that marriage is simply a contract, whereby certain parties gree to do certain things and not to 1O toin Otbor +biDoO

WHY DIVORCE KEEPS GROWING
 BY ARTHUR BROOKS BAKER

Now, if stenographer were to con- tract with her employer to work for him all her life, that contract could be set aside as being against public policy, constituting, as it would, a form of slavery.
 But if the contract were called mar riage, and she agreed not only to work for him forever, but to produce chil- dren from time to time and work for them also, what answer should be giv. en to those who would make this con- tract unbreakable?
 The answer is so obvious that one need not study statistice to know that divorce grows as public enlighten- ment grows. To force two human beings to stay together when they don't want to is task too difficult for legislatures to undertake, provided those two people are equipped with minds of their own.
 Marriage is indissoluble only for the poor and ignorant; and for them the loveless home" is often broken when a matter-of-fact husband runs away from his, haven of domestic bliss or a practical wife forsakes her turbu- lent paradise and gets a job cooking and washing for somebody else with whom her differences are of a less violent kind.

 The capture of Tia Juana under his command was the most signal triumph achieved by the band during it's oper- ations in the northern part of the peninsula. The battle which led to the occupation of the town was viewed by thousands of spectators, who travelled to the scene in auto mobiles.

Later he was arrested by the United States authorities on com plaint of the Mexican govern ment and tried at San Diego on various charges, among them being that of the mur- der of the postmaster at Tia Juana, who was one of those killed during the first battle. Had he been proved guilty of this offenSe and extradited, the Mexican authorities sure would have made short work of him, but he and co-defend- ants, Mosby and Laflin, were liberated.

FOUGHT FOR THE LOVE
 OF FIGHTING

YumaiteS will remember
 Stanley Williams and C
 Rhys Price Of Mexicali fame.
 News of the death of C. RhyS Pryce in the battle of the Ooise, received WedneS- day brought back memories of one of the most pictur eSque characters that played part in the revolutionary troubles not far from Yuma in the early part of 1911.
 Pryce was a soldier of for tune and a natural fighter He fought for the pure love of fighting. Son of 2 colo nial in the British army, 8 scion of an old Welsh family, he saw his baptism of fire ir the BOer war, where he fought in the service of the queen.
 As soon as his term of en- liStment was out, he sought the new world, and came te Canada. MonotonouS years passed without the prospect of war anywhere, until the breaking out of the Mexican revolution. Pryce instantly hurried to the southland and enlisted as a member of a band which had for its object the conquest of Lower Cali fornia and the setting up there of an independent na- ton.
 The band started on it's career of conquest early in 1911, never numbered more than a hundred men and be- fore it finally surrendered had been commanded by no less than four generals.
 The first was General Stanley Williams, who was killed. Next, was General" Simon Berthold, who was mortally wounded and died at Alamo; next was "Gener- aT' Pryce, who commanded | at the first battle of Tia | Juana, and last came Gen eral" Jack Mosby, who sur rendered to the United States forces on the border just after the second disastrous battle of Tia Juana.
 Pryce commanded a mot ley crew, and even his mili- tary ability was unable to en- force any degree of discipline during the weeks that his forces occupie d Tia Juana after the first battle. The town was a nightly pan demonium, with shooting. shouting and all sorts of noisy disorder. Sentries were posted, but their appear ance was resented by the very men their presence was designed to protect. One sentinel, German, was shot in the back one night and mortally wounded.
 His position was a danger ouS one. About forty of the I band consisted of 1. w. W.'S ( and forty were Mexcians, while there were ten or 12

FARMERS MEETING A SUCCESS.
Largest Cattle ing Of Representative
Farmers Ever In Kingwood Here
Last Saturday - Pomona Grange
Adds Large Number to their Men,

Perhaps the largest and most en-
thusiastic assembly of farmers ever
In Kingwood was held Saturday last
under direction of Pomona Grange of
Preston and Monongalia counties.
This order had arranged for an open
meeting and an all-day program was
advertised and the people came ex-

away disappointed.
The morning session was business

ity was given for persons wishing to
join and quite a number were ini-
tiated into the order.
A cream separator demonstration
was also given. which was both inter-
esting and beneficial.
The speakers for the afternoon were
Prof. Henry Dorsey and Prof G. r.
Titlow, both OF Morgantown. Prof.
Titlow had been here before and all
came expecting to hear something out
OF the ordinary on Farmer Organi-
zations," and il is saying little when
we say his evening lecture was far
above the expectations of everybody.
Prof Henry Dorsey spoke on Dairy
Products" and he certainly did ample
justice to his subject.
County agent j. Y. Mcdonald also
gave short address on dairy and
creamery work, which was much an
preciated. Several general discussions
were given and then all departed from

The speakers for the evening were

ualry products. Although the attend

OF the inclemency of the weather vet
quite goodly number were there
and none were disappointed.

some short talks were given and upon
motion a unanimous vote of thanks
was extended to the ladies for their
services, and the speakers and con-
| tributors to the occasion.
Although the hour was growing late
still the people were loath to leave
and not until the hour of midnight was
near did the crowd dispense to go to
their homes, and all agreed that it had
been a day which was most interest
ing, enjoyable and profitable.

could require what he would of a

all outgrown. Men will no longer

The following asininity is going the

have level-headed member like Davis

For bare-faced Ananiasism the above
Is entitled to first prize. The editor oi
the State Journal knows that the seat OF
Smith was brazenly stolen and given 10
Davis. There was no evidence intro
duced, supported by the record, to de
prive Smith of his seat. The concrete
evidence, the ballots, were never sub
mitted. 1t was plain case of Repub.
lican machine steal.
