District Will Be Reported
Hereafter By Inspector.

Editor Record:-I will appreciate
it very much if you will allow space
in next issue of the Record for the
following.
1t is very definitely understood
that part Of Sharp county, in town
ship IS, range 8 and 7 or better
known by some as the lower part
Of Sullivan and johnson townships,
is all Of the county that remains In
quarantine, comprising only twenty
two and one-half sections of land.
The citizens of this small territory
are anxious to be released from
quarantine and doubtless every cit
izen of Sharp county will be glad
when the entire county has been
cleared of cattle ticks, released
from quarantine and protected In u
way that but little danger will re-
main for II to become reinfected.
Such conditions are approaching
rapidly, and to help hasten the
time must insist on those who
i've in township l5 range 8 and 7,
who have cattle running outside or
on pastures known to be infected
that they have their cattle dipped
on the regular dipping days,
Many men have their cattle at
the vat as regularly as the day
comes for dipping. On that day
the solution Is tested and at a
proper strength, and plenty Of help
to assist In getting the cattle dipped,
It Is necessary TO see the cattle In
order to Oct any Idea about the
condition Of the territory Il 10 a

Money certainly works wonders.
1t will put man in the peniten-
tiary or keep him out of it. The
lack of money sends a hog thief to
jail, and plenty of money sends the
thief who loots the public in open
daylight to congress. The man
who has no money and loafS is
called a bum, and the man who
has lots Of money and loafs is call
ed a financier, despite the fact that
one is as productive toward the
public good as the other. Money
has made many a disreputable cit
izen respectable Money has ostra-
cised brains ten thousand times.
Money is arrogant, and often per-
Secutes poverty. If you have
the funds the way is open and you
can 20 as far as you like. If you
haven't got it you don't get very
far until a door is slammed in your
face and your anatomy gives out
the impression that somebody has
been kicking at you. Lots of money
will make the imbecile leading
citizen. If he didn't h ave it
he couldn't Get a job at the wood
pile, because nobody would want
him around. The wonders of the
root Of all evil never cease. 1t can
wrap a filthy carcass in fine goods,
or it can send a noble soul wrapped
in rags out in the cold to live if it
can. Money is great manufac-
turing plant. 1t manufactures
friends, liberty, license, brains, and
the right to hoist your snoot in the
air whenever the atmosphere be-
comes contaminated with the pres
ence Of somebody less fortunate, or
more fortunate, just as one might
choose to look at the matter.

The Record has always managed

1t was truly an American humor-
