Boys Celebrate
Halloween Night

Saturday night the city was
the scene of great activity rs the
mischief makers busily removed
everything movable to differ
ent location and kept the citizens
busy watching their property
until late Sunday morning.
In spite of the fact that a
large crowd of boys were out
bent on mischief no damage TO
property was done, the pranks
were all those of fun.
As usual, the school grounds
were the scene of the greatest
activity and scattered about the
school house were to be seen We.
hlcles of every description.
The wheels had been removed
from the different vehicles and
were piled on the fire escape
and it seemed hard to believe
that all this work was accom-
pllshed in the short time that the
boys were at it.
The next morning almost
everyone had a job hunting UP
his property and many dispute
arose over the ownership of diff
ferent parts Of the buggies that
were on the school grounds.
This was practically all the
mischief that was done with the
exception of the soaping of the
windows of the business places.

of the fact that he was the heir

found out that his father left
him property about forty years

So, 600. and that he should have
had the property when he was
twenty.one years of age, instead
of at forty-fve, which is his age
now. In other words he finds
that he has been unlawfully de-

use of this property for twenty.

that an aunt had finally found

Nor is this all the good news
that MIR. Adcock received since
getting in touch with his aunt.

Newton in order that she might
leave him a house and several
lots in Auburn, Nebraska so
this will be added to the other

Much Enthusiasm
in Herald Contest

The Herald contest is warming
up and everyone is saving up
coupons either to give TO their
friends in the contest or to use
themselves.
BY accident the coupons given
by the stores were made so that
they can easily be transferred
and it is now too late to change
them as it would not be fair to
cancel those that are already is
sued. These coupons are given
out by every advertiser in the
Herald, one thousan ID points
for each dollar spent. The
lumber yards and implement
dealers are supplied with these
coupons as we'll as the other mer-
chants and the farmers that are
buying lumber and farm ma
chinery should ask for coupons.
We ask the merchants to be
fair in this contest and give out
no votes or points except to
those that are deserving of them.
The merchants have entire con-
troll Of contest and are the only
ones thatcan issue these coupons.
The amount of coupons that are
issued by each merchant will be
checked and in case that any of
the contestants can prove that
any of the coupons were issued
without purchase being made
for the amount that the coupon
calls for. all the votes that were
issued by that merchant or deal
er will be thrown out and not
counted.
We want this conetst to be abb
solutely fair to every one that
enters and also to the merchants
for this reason we make the
above condition.
The coupons will be counted
as votes only in case that the
party to whom the coupons are
credited has at least one ad sign
ed by each merchant from whom
he has received the coupons.
F.. Cut out the ads and take them
with you when you go shopping.
The merchants all understand
the proposition and they will ex-
plain to you on request. Don't
fail to ask for the coupons when
ever you make a purchase and
purchase whatever you want.
Buy only of those that are ad-
vertisers in the Herald.

Richards Persistent
lnPIimary Law Battle

R. O. Richards is circularizing
the state with requests that the
proposal" committeeman hold
hold a nominating convention at
Pierre in January, according to
the terms of the Richards Pri-
mary law, regardless Of any de-
cision that may be made by the
state supreme court on the legal
ity of the legislative repeal of
the Richards measure.
Mr.. Richards states that he
proposes to carry the issue to
the United States supreme court,
if defeated in the state courts,
and that he has hope, in the
higher body, of sustaining his
initiated measure over the legis-
lative enactment.
But even if the state supreme
court and the United States sup
RENE court rule against him, he
says, h e proposal convention
nominations could be utilized in
the ensuing campaign. He
would put these nominations on
the ballot by petition and thus
ne in position to wage a cam
paign in behalf of those NOM
lnees.
1t is the expressed belief of
Mr.. Richards that the United
States supreme court will hold
the nominees of tn e proposal
convention to be the regular
ticket and to have ballot prece-
dence over nominations made
under the legislative act.
The general tone of the cir
cular indicates that Mr.. Rich.
ards does not expect the state
supreme court to revive his in
itiative law.

Shelifs Are
In Full Charge

Pierre, Nov. 1:-Special-That
the collection of delinquent per-
Sonal taxes is under the complete
control of the sheriff, from and
after November 10 of each year,
Is holding of the attorney gen.
eral, which will be of special in
terest to county treasurers and
sheriffs in this state The hold
ing on inquiry from the states
attorney of Perkins county, lays
down the rule as understood by
the state legal department under
the provisions of the 1915 act for
collection of such taxes.
The opinion, a long one, is
summarized in the findings that
the law requires the delinquent
personal property tax list to be
turned over to the sheriff on the
tenth of November of each year.
1t is his duty and province to
use all the means in his power
to collect the same and the list
is in his hands for that purpose
until the last day Of September
OF the year following it's delivery.
After that d ate no attempts
shall be made to collect such de.
I'nquent personal taxes, except
npon order of the board of com.
missioners.
Not until this stage is the
treasurer authorized to advertise
such personal property taxes az
lien against the real estate,
and he also is given the right
of remedy in action in circuit
conrt if he so desires to compel
such payment of personal taxes.
1t is held that the placing of the
delinquent personal property tax
list in the hands of the sheriff
and fixing specific fees and mile
age for his services in such COL
lection. was especially intended
to give such official a financial
lnducement Iowar effort in
such collections, and thus assist
IN such collections.

Drug Prices
Climb SkyWard

Local druggists say that the
drug market has been affected
considerably by the war in Eu-
rope, the price in most drugs
having more than doubled or trip
led, either because of the supply
having been shut off from this
country, or the great demand for
them by the warning nations.
Sapirin is a drug that is fast
becoming extinct in this country.
1t is manufactured exclusively
in Germany and the only supplies
on hand are those which were
imported before England estab-
lished her blockade of German
ports. No shipments are now
coming through from across the
water.
The chemical ingredients of
sapirin are known to every
druggist in the country but the
process of its making is register
ed in the United States patent
office. and hence its manufacture
is forbidden in this country.
To some extent the use of the
drug which is an antidote for the
relief of colds and headaches can
be supplied by others of a similar
nature.
Glycerine, the demand for
which increases with the ap.
proach of cold weather through
it's use to soothe chapped skins,
has more than doubled in price
in the last few weeks. Is is now
used for bigger things. 1t is one
of the chief ingredients of explo-
sives,
Quinine, which in times of
peace sells for 20 cents an ounce
has more than tripled in price
and is likely to go higher any
day. Just why quinine should
advance to such price attitudes
no one seems to know, as practi.
cally all of the supply comes from
South American countries. 1t is
recalled that during the civil war
in the United States, quinine ad-
vanced to $50 an ounce. One of
the reasons given by the control
lers of the product is that the
hospitals in the belligerent coun-
tries are consuming all of the
quinine that is available, as it is
a base for many medicines. All
supplies which contain quantities
| of quinine have also advanced in
price.

A Song of the Hills

Where the hills reach up from the valley
With their sun-kissed tops aglow.
Where the pine tree plumes that crown them
In the breeze wave to and fro,
Where the mountain stream comes tumbling
In JOY Ger its rocky way.
To the fields that await its coming
And pine for it's cooling spray
Where the blue topped peaks lift grandy
To hide mid the clouds low swung,
With their feet on the firm foundation
That reared when the earth was
young,
Where the eagle screams in triumph
As he scars to his sky built home
And the snow capped upper reaches
Lie white as the oceans foam!
All, the low, broad plains have beauty
With their billowy fields of grain.
Where the poddng toll brings plenty
If the heart seeks only gain,
But the spirit is lifted upward
With the power that throbs and thrills.
And the soul finds inspiration
In ther grandeur Of the hills.

Beginning Their 1916 Campaign.

The question suggests as to
what the republican opponents of
the administration, whether they
are members of congress or vari-
Gus republican journals, hope to
gain by their continual despicable
nagging of the administration.
Partisan advantage, Of course.
And in attempting to gain party
advantage they are forgetting
patriotism at a time when real
and practical patriotism is need.
ed in this country more than il
has been for years past.
1t would place the matter in q
more understandable light, per.
haps, to say that these republi.
cans are already beginning the
campaign for 1916. Their tactics
are those they are accustomed t
employ just before a nationa
election. They are employing
them now when politics and poll
teal consideration should be for,
gotten for the sake of the nation
But to some republicans, theil
party comes first; their country
second-or less. ---Schenectad!
