Triumphant" was rendered in the
Congregational Church last Sunday
according to program. A well filled

Decorations consisted of ferns, pot
tcds and cut flowers. The purity OF
the Easter lilies, white carnations,
and white hyacinths was greatly con
trasted by the addition of various col
ors of tulips, begonias, geraniums, etc.

ID. W. Jones, republican nominee
for county commissioner was here
Tuesday evening in the interest of his
candidacy. We once suggested that
this job be handed Mr.. Jones on
silver platter. We haven't changed
our mind on the subject now that
sour Maritime candidate was denied the
nomination. The most of Mr.. Jones
opposition is in hi shome town, for
prophet is never without honor save
in his own country" But the private
difference of neighborhood should
not be permitted to obscure the issue.
1t isn't up to the balance of the
county to pull Coulee City chestnuts
out of the fire. They are not DUR
chestnuts and We didn't put them
there besides. This is an important
office and competent men will not
shoulder it's manifold burdens if petty
differences of a private nature are al
lowed to become an issue. Mr.. Jones
perspective is not bounded by the COR
porate limits of his home precinct,
nor of Grant county. His road pro-

W. J. Hauser, our efficient county
treasurer, was a visitor in our fair
city Tuesday. Two years ago the
voters took him on trust and elected
him county treasurer. Mr.. Hauser
made his business to deliver the
goods. During his administration
every account, and there are hundreds
of them, has balanced to cent. The
work has not only been done correct
ly, but expeditiously and economical
ly. Some of these days this standard
will be achieved by all our county Of
ficials, but we must first learn to ap-
preciate them. Mr.. Hauser is a candi-
date for reelection and Judging the
matter from purely business stand
point, he should be unanimously
elected.-Hartline Standard.

issues it has brought forth will bt
settled for the time being. While no.
presuming to dictate the way any o.
our readers should vote we would bt
negligent of our duty did we not a
least say what we think would be fol
the best interests of our county ant
state. The election Of ex-governor
Mcbride would be a step in the di
rection of the good old days wheI
ring politics ruled the day. In CRAM
county the retirement of Mr.. Sander:
or Mr.. Hauser would be a distinct
loss to the county. Mr.. Gee certainly
deserves to be elected as engineer
not only on account of the work he
has done in the past, but for the rea-
son also that his opponent has not
had the training to fit him for the
position he seeks. 1t would be wise
thing to vote against each and every
one of the initiative measures, but
particularly Nos. 1S and "a. While
no. "a, "the Brewers Bill'' is heralded
as an improvement on the present
prohibition law it is nothing more or
less than an attempt on the part Of
the liquor people to make the state
wide open as to the sale of beer. 1t is
disgusting exhibition of the greed
that would debauch the manhood of
the state to make market for unlim-
tied quantities of beer. VOTE NO.
There is considerable difference of
opinion in regard to the constitutional
amendment, but we have never been
able to see any reason why persons
not paying taxes should have any,
thing to say about how the taxes paid
by others should be spent. Before
voting against the amendment it would
be wise to read the bill over and think
awhile.

PAID ADVERTISING

The following is respectfully sub
mitted for your thoughtful considera-
ton before casting your vote on Nov.
9TH.
There has been for several years
only one part of our county repre-
ing county business. One group of
officers serving year after year and
whose interest are one with the city
in which they live, form a ring the
members of which will work for their
own and their city's interests instead
sented in the county offices. This
does not make for fairness in conduct
of for the good of the whole county.
This year we have chance to even
things up and secure efficiency as
well as fairer representation if we
will only do so. 1t would appear to
be worth the trial.
This community should by all
means support it's own candidates and
those from the other outlying dis
tricts in preference to those who have
held office for some time.

MACHINERY TO SHELBYvILLE
Pierce Mines in Sharp County Scene
Of Much Activity.

To gain an idea of the extent of
zinc mining operations in Sharp
county one may ponder over the
fact that between forty and fifty
loads of machinery have been haul
ed to the Pierce mines at Shelby
vile during the past few weeks,
The owners of these mines have in
corporated a big concern, known as
the Lavender Mining and Milling
Company, and in which New York
and St. Louis and other eastern
capitalists have invested their
money,
Every piece of machinery used in
modern methods of mining zinc has
been shipped to Batesville and haul
ed to Shelbyville, a distance Of
about % miles, and this morning
saw about eight wagon loads Of
equipment leave Batesville for the
mines.
Active mining Is in force at
Shelbyyille and a number Of tons Of
ore are gotten out daily. The ore Is
shipped from Pfeilfer, BY April /,
when 1t Is said all the machinery
will be Installed and placed in oper-
alton, as many as 100 tons Of ore
are expected to be gotten out each
day.
Something like twenty more loads
of machinery will be hauled from
