Then Bad Luck Sets In.
Then the prosperous existence was
changed and the last few years nave
witnessed train OF misfortunes that
brought the village to standsti1l and
prepared It for the last blow, the cli-
max Of "the unluckies village"
The Osborn Bank, an old home
made financial Institution that had
the confidence of every townsman and
farmer for miles around, went smash,
due to unwise investments. Business
suffered body blow.
An epidemic OF smallpox ravaged
the town for an entire winter and
sent buyers and sellers and many OF
the transient workmen scurryng to
other towns and cities.
The whip factory that had main
tanned close relations with the de-
funct bank finally was forced to the
wall after years Of haphazaTd exist
ence.
An egg factory and boiler works
that promised for a while to bring
employment to few people, found
that they couldn't live.
Even a company which started to
build aeroplanes invented by the VII
laRe marshal, Charles Sny0er. wens
up in the air when it was found that
the machine wouldn't.
The village owned light and power
works, which also proved an expen-
sive venture, because of careless ad-
mfnistra ton. and the taxpayers were
burdened with the recurrent indebt-
edness.
Satisfied to Go.
So, except for the twenty dve retail
concerns and a fair-sized milling In
dustry, things were on the decline.
But the people accept the situation
more than philosorhically; they say
it's the best stroke of luck the town
ever had.
Osborn people have been scared
ever since the legislature. three years
ago, passed flood prevention law. It
was planned then to build two dams,
one on either side Of Osborn and the
township declared that the arst fresh
let would sweep their village from Its
moorings.

they served an ultimatum that their

From, the occurances Of the past week i
begins to look as though the sale Of whisksy
to Indians, il il Ashland, ! is on the increase,
as several load. both automobile and haFsess hsaFsess
rigs, of drunks have been brought to the
Farmers Office and that in the day 'lRs,
heretoforc such sights have been taken M

Nis nearly time steps were taken to stop
this p'aesiqqs and clean all saloon: ~, doips E
business in this district out, and forever t'1 E:
abolish the sale OF whiskey within the In
dian country. 1t is for the betterme4s and
uplift of not alone the Indian race but the
entire populace. We do not want to be
put on record as saying the entiree Indian
race are ':hooze fighters for sychh is i not ,,

who are hghtng against the sale of 'f the H Asfuf
but we can certainly say the stopping of its
sale will be the means of making the future
generation as we'll as the present better
man better and more progressive citizen.
!, Every means possible will! be taken this
session of Congress to have measures Gu
acted, calling for the adjustment of the
sale of same On Indian territory ceded Or
otherwise, and from present advises the

less OF the liquor interest. The 4ndiFFI9f will
not be alone in this grand fight.
Hereafter as fast as we can ascertain the
names of places in which whiskey is given
