DOCTOR SAYS BOY KILLED BY

shears was merely the result of reflex
action. A physician, testifying for
NIGGA, said the boys wound would
not necessarily have caused death if
it had been properly treated.

Victor Murdock Back From Trenches
to be Chautauqua's Feature.
The attention Of Glasgow people is
drawn to the chautauqua program for
1916. It is a winner.
In looking over the splendid staff
Of lecturers, interest is especially en-
livened at the prospect of hearing
Victor Murdock, the frey insurgent
from Kansas, who is today central
figure in our national politics. An
other man who gives man sized
twist to things in general, and to
community development in particular
is Ernest j. Sias, the hometown ad-
vocate. Frederick Vining Fisher,
chief of staff of the lecture bureau
of the Panama Pacific international
Exposition, one Of Americas most elo-
quent platform speakers, delivers to
chautauquans an illustrated lecture
brilliant in its idealistic Americanism.
Mrs. Harriette Gum Robertson, the
platforms premier lady lecturer will
prove one of the most interesting of
the lecture course. Elliott A. Boyl,
co-worker with DR.. Gunsauius of Chi
cago, is a man of practical and in
spring idealism.

?2nd, the famous Hawaiian Trouba-
doris. This is without doubt the best
Hawaiian show appearing before the
public today. They came very highly
recommended from the Strand The
atre Seattle, where they have just
closed three months engagement.
In fact every town in which they have
appeared on their trip east has been
loud in their praise. The Great
Falls Tribune pronounced it as be-
ing the best Hawaiian show that ever
played that city. In their concert,
which is composed of both American
and Hawaiian songs and instrument
al solos, is the celebrated Hawaiian
air Aloha Oe. This is the native air
which made such a hit with the pub
lie in the big musical comedy 1.-THE
Bird of Paradise" This is the big
musical treat of the season and mer-
its the patronage of all lovers of

thank him for our products winning
wide fame throughout the state and
every where else, while he has ham
died the Valley County Fair and the
State Fair exhibits of this county.
Last winter he gathered many ex-
hibits of corn from the farmers of
Valley county and sent them to St.
Paul, where prizes were won and ad-
ditional publicity and honor brought
to this section of the state. He has
always shown a desire to improve
conditions on the farm and it was his
efforts that brought about the cut
ting down of the Behner hill grade
! and made it possible for the farmers
Of the north part Of the county to
haul their heavy loads over it without
difficulty.
The work of Mr.. Moore has been
such as to make him many warm
friends among the farmers and he
will be supported by them in the COM

FARMERS AUCTION
SALE WAS GOOD
Saturday Sale Of Col. Jacobs Was a
Great Success.

Saturday Sale Of Col. Jacobs Was a
Great Success.
The farmers auction sale held at
the Hall Livery Barn last Saturday,
by Col. E. F. Jacobs, the well known
auctioneer Of the north bench, was
the most successful Of any held this
year. About 81 10000 wcrta of stuff
was disposed of consisting principal
ly of cattle and horses. There was
some machinery and household ar
ticles sold and all brought very good
prices. Col. Jacobs worked hard, and
all who disposed Of articles were well
pleased with the returns, and the pur-
chaser was satisfied.
These sales are of great benefit to
the farmers as it brings the purchas-
er and the seller together in a most
congenial manner, giving those who
want machinery or live stock an op-
portunity to meet those who have
these for sale. Transactions are
made in quick succession as Col. Jac-
obs is one of those men who does not
allow a minute to pass in idleness
but keeps the goods moving fast. He
has the faculty of keeping everyone
in good humor as we'll so that the
pleasant rivalry of the bidding is fol.
lowed with keen interest.
Glasgow can consider these auction
sales a great benefit for they are the
means of bringing large number OF
men to the city on sale day. II
shows the thorough moderness of the
man who has instituted these monthly
auction sales and will prove of much
usefulness as time goes on. The next
sale will be held within few weeks

Property owners in the city should
not neglect the weeds growing in the
streets and back yards but ought to
take pride enough in the appearance
of their home to cut them down and
see that they do not have a chance to
grow rank and spread seed. A lit
tie work by each and every resident
of the city would make a wonderful
improvement in the appearance of our
streets and boulevards and not cost
any individual any noticeable sum and
strangers visiting the city would have
a much better impression.

THE REPUBLICAN HOST

The republican vote between 1896
and 1908 varied a little. In 1896
7,104,779 votes were cast for Me-
Kinley; in 1900 he received 1907 ,293.
In 1904 Roosevelt had 1923 1886 votes,
and in 1903 Taft had 7,67s,90s.
There was also but slight varia.
ton in the democratic vote. In 1896
Bryan had 6,502,e25 votes; in 1900
he had 6,358,l33. IN 1904 Parker
had only 5,077,911 votes owing to the
detection of over 1000, 900 free-silver
democrats who did not, however, vote
any other ticket, but sulked at home.
In 1908 the silver democrats recover
ed from their chagrin and polled g.
9,104 votes for Bryan about the
same as his vote in 1896 and in 1900.
These figures demonstrate that the
republicans have had for twenty years
a steadily-increasing majority over
the democrats. In 1896 that major
ity was COL 1854; in 1900 it was 849,-
16O, when Parker superseded Bryan,
it increased to 2,545,575; in 1908 it
was 1,269,8O4, and in 1912, by count
ing the progressive vote as republi-
can in principle, it was 1,311,4 ,444.

STRANGE THINGS IN POLITICS

One week ago last Monday court
was called to issue naturalization
papers to some forty applicants.
Each party wanting his final papers
is required to appear in court togeth-
er with two witnesses and in great
many cases they are forced to bring
the witnesses a number of miles and
pay their expenses. The Judge fail
ed to put in his appearance here until
Tuesday about noon and the parties
were forced to remain in town. on

on the taxpayers as a whole it is on
the few who want their papers. Just

failed to keep his appointment and
disappoint the people is unknown.

the place to show your approval or

Walter Sizer and the other of Emil
kromioi were to have been tried to a
jury and twenty-three jurymen re-
ported for duty and were dismissed
by Judge Utter, who said he was not
feeling well enough to hear the cases,
but he was feeling we'll enough to
attend the picnic at Lovejoy-the same
day where he made a talk on politics
and spent the greater part of the
night at the dance. The jurymen on
the Sizer case cost the county $l85.OO
and the witnesses $4,000, the other
man to be tried entered a plea of
guilty. The cost of the jury and wit
nesses was not all in the Sizer case
as Phillips county will now be forced
to board him at a cost of 75c ne,

October.

also the attorneys for both the state
and defense. If the taxpayers want
