Ole Lien, who as county auditor
and clerk of the county board, is
credited by many thinking men in
with having put Roberts County
on sounder financial basis than
it ever was before. Heis candi-
date for nomination as county
treasurer. He has become known
during his tenure of Office as the
man to ask questions of at the
court house. No matter how trivial
the subject or how busy Ole may
be on other matters, you are sure
of a pleasant and authentic answer.
He is not making an active cam
paign, being very busy with coun-
ty affairs, and relies wholly upon
the efforts of interested friends for
his support. He isone man whose
sound financial ideas should be re-
tained in the service of the county.

Fred Evander. the only farmer
candidate for the legislature was
in the city OH business Friday.
Fred lives over in Harmon town
ship and has lived there since the
reservation opened. He is one OF
those fellows who has always been
content with his lot, staying right
at home with his family and friends
tending his farm duties and his
own business. He has been urged
to run for this office time and again
but this is the first time he has ever
consented to do SO, and now places
himself before the voters to repre-
sent them in their neAt legislature,
and is entitled 10 every republican
vote i'll Roberts County. He is a
man with an excellant education, a
good business ability and one who
will look into matters in the legis-
lature for the people as if he was
dealing for his own personal in
terest alone. He is one of those
fellows that is always OIL guard,

SUDDEN DEATH
OF MRS. MEAD
Dies From Heart Failure ON
Sunday Afternoon.
The word that Mrs. Mike Mead

The word that Mrs. Mike Mead
vas dead came as a severe shock
to her relatives and many friends.
The death occurred almost instant
" from heart failure Sunday after
noon. About three weeks ago a
little daughter was born to them
and the mother was apparently on
the road to recovery, and was up
and moving around the house.
Maud Lang Mead was born at
Wilmot, this county, in October
1888. She was the daughter of
MIR. and Mrs. Robert Lang, now
residing in this city. Being only
twenty eight years old it seems
hard for her relatives and friends
TO part with her just in the bloom
of young womanhood. She leaves
besides her husband, one daughter
seven year old and the babe, her
parents, three sisters and six
brothers. The funeral was held
at the Catholic church, Rev.
Kraus assisted by Father O'Neill
of Milbank and Father Berg of
Waubay conducted the solemn
rites, and she was laid away in the
Sisseton cemetery.
Mrs. Mead was a model wife
and mother and her departure from
the ramily circle causes grief which
words are powerless to assuage.
So young, SO good, so true, and
10 be cut off so suddenly in her
wears of usefulness leaves a void in
the community that can scarcely be
titled.
The long cortege of sorrowing
friends and the beautiful floral
offerings gave ample proof of the
esteem in which the deceased was
held by members of the community
In the sad hours of death, words
of coincidence fail to relieve the
sorrowing and aching hearts. but
our SORROWS are made lighter when
we are re minded that sooner Ol
later Death will have gathered us
all to the land where now dwell!
the pure soul of Mrs Mead.

Natural History.

She was a poor little city girl who
had spent all her life in boarding
house where they have chicken every
Sunday, and it always fell to her lot
10 get drumstick. All the five long
wears of her long little life she had
been having drumsticks, so that was
as far as her knowledge of the anat-
omy of fowl extended.
Last week she was taken to the
country for the first time, and saw
some real, live chickens. But she was
haunted by the memory of myriads OF
drumsticks. She couldn't understand.
Turning to her father, she exclaimed:
Papa, l didn't know chickens only
had two legs"
