ELECTION RESULTS IN TIE.
Court Holds Vote For Mayor at Bows
Resulted i'm no Decision.

Iowa Falls, April 2.-It will now
be necessary to either draw cuts or
appeal to higher court to decide or
postpone the dispute over the cleo
ton of a mayor at Bows. The case
has been in the courts for some time
and the decision holds that the cleo
ton resulted in tie. G. H. Jane
son and o. A. Kellogg were candi-
dates and the election board declar-
ed Kellogg had received a majority
of one vote, according to the can
vass of the returns. Jameson took
the. matter into the courts and the
judge of the district court has ruled
that the majority vote was ruled out.
One voter admitted he had voted for
kellogg but it was shown this voter
had not resided long enough in the
precinct to give him a legal ballot.
In the meantime, Kellogg has been
holding forth as mayor and new
deal is necessary to fully determine
which shall be mayor, Kellogg or
Jameson.

Give the Teachers an Increase.

There is some sense in the sug-
gestion that the teachers be given a
generous increase in salary instead
of a pension. There are plenty OF
teachers who would prefer to get
what is coming to them in that way.
The objection to the suggestion is
that the teachers salary is local is
sue and can not be made state is
sue," says the Sioux City Journal.
IF the state as whole is to do any
thing for the teachers it will have
to be by a pension or annuity sys-
tenn 1t is not a mere theory that
something can be done for the teach
ers in this way. 1t has been done in
almost three-fourths Of the states,
and it will be done in Iowa eventu-
ally"

Music Shop expects to move this
week into their new quarters in the
Severson building, on Water street,
recently vacated by the SELF Shoe
Store. The store room has been re-
modelled and redecorated in fine
shape and will make excellent quart
ers for this firm A sound proof
demonstrating room has been fixed
up in the rear of the main sales
room, and it will have every conve-
nience. Fine rugs have been secur-
ed for the floors and other things,
which will make it a very attractive
room. The firm will have more
room in their new quarters and will
be able to display their Edison pho
nographs and pianos in fine shape.
A fine new heating plant has just
been installed in the building by
Peter Johnson & Sons.

Col. Brady and his sister, Mrs.
Thos. Gallagher and daughter, Miss
Margaret, arrived Monday night,
having been called here from Bow
man, N. d. by the serious illness of
their sister, Mrs. Margaret Whalen,
who has been very sick for some
time. Mr.. Brady had not been here
for seven years, since he left with
his family for Bowman. He has been
in the bridge contracting business
there and has done we'll. During the
past winter he has been buying cat
tie and hogs. Mr.. Brady looks pros
porous and we guess the west has
agreed with him in every particular.

Assistant Buttermaker Resigns.

It's back to the farm for H. ].
Fielstul, the popular young assistant
buttermaker at the DEBORAH Farm
ers' Ice Cave Creamery. Mr. Fjel-
stul has been the assistant under
Buttermaker Bendickson for the
past two years and proved good
one. He was industrious and hon
est, and Mr.. Bendickson would have
liked very much to retain him, but
he was given such an excellent offer
by his father to conduct one of his
farms near Ridgeway, that he de-
cided to go back to the farm. He de-
parted Sunday. The new assistant
buttermaker, Andrew Gudvangen,
of Hanlontown, Iowa, arrived Mon
day. He grew up in the creamery
business, having assisted his father
make butter, since he was big enough
to get about creamery. For the
past two years he was employed at
st. James, Mimi, and he has also
taken the creamery course at the
Minnesota dairy school. Mr.. Ben
dickson feels that he has secured an
excellent assistant in Mr.. Gudvang-
en-.

Received the Paper and Had to Pa!

htCclNtu the Edpef anu Idu 10 ray
A case Of interest to newspaper
publishers occurred recently at West
brook, N. Y, wherein firm of news
paper publishers brought suit, and
obtained judgment for 50 and costs,
on account of subscription charges.
The publishers admitted that the de-
PENDANT never ordered the paper
The facts were not disputed that
when they bought in the list of an
other paper in the town, this mans
name was on that list, but without
his orders. The new management
wrote to all whose names were on
the list they had bought, offering to
stop the papers of all who did not
expect to pay. The defendant did not
answer this notice, but kept on tax
ing the paper, and then refused to
pay on the ground that he never sub
scribed. The plaintiffs argued that
the general rule of law. that man
must pay for what he receives and
uses, applies to newspapers as well
as other things, and the court sus-
tanned that view.

Bound to "Set".

We notice some of the papers are
SO nice that they print it sitting

ing hen" as the language lessons
gave it when we were in school and
as the standard dictionaries and 9TH
er authorities still use it. We haven't
got so far along in the way Of the
world that we are going to change
from setting" to sitting for any
old hen, saws the Logan Observer.

CLEAN GRAIN BINS ANNUALLY
Most Of the injury pens by insects
Can Be Prevented-spray With
Kerosene Emulsion.

By cleaning bins carefully each year
before a new crop is placed In them,
most Of the injury due to stored grain
insects can be prevented. A million
dollars more might be saved annually
In Ohio IL these pests were destroyed.
After the grain bins are swept out
they should be sprayed thoroughly
with 10 per cent Kerosene emulsion.
This destroys the eggs and insects that
otherwise would infest the new crop.
The bins will be ready for the new
grain within n week after treatment.
About 2Si,000.000 bushels of corn,
oats and wheat were produced In Ohio
In 1916, according TO the year book of
the United States department of agri-
culture. A conservative estimate made
by entomologists OF the Ohio agricul-
tural experiment station IL one-half OF
l per cent injured. This makes the
annual damage amount to approx
mately million dollars for this state
alone from insect depredatlons In
stored grain.
Several beetles, weevlls and moths
lnfest cereals and other stored prod
ucts. Many of these insects are also
accompanied by mites.

no means. But the knowledge of Eng
lish Is so widespread among the edu-
Gated classes of Russia that we begin TO
understand the reports about the en-
thusiastic reception of our ambassa-
doris eloquent address by his audiences
in Petrograd and Moscow, says an ex-
change.
There is not n notable play or novel
produced In London which Is not acted
or read in Russia. The Russian in
tellegenZla knows not only French and
German, but also English history and
literature thoroughly.
Glytha, the daughter of King Har-
old who was slain ut Hastings (1066),
through her marriage with the Rus
sian Prince OF Tchernigoff laid the
first foundation to the close relation
ship between Great Britain and the en-
pire of the czars. The real English
"discoverer" of Russia is, Of course,
Richard Chancellor, who, through his
voyage TO Moscow In 1853. established
solid commercial connections between
the two countries.
And why should we not be remind
ed, on this occasion, of the interesting
fact that Peter the Greats mother was
brought up in a Scottish household?

YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati man tells how to dry
up a corn or caIIus SO Ii lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because few
drops of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so ii can be
lifted off, root and ell, without pain
A small bottle of freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as 1t
Is inexpensive and is said not TO lrri-
tate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house.-adv.

What One Knot Faster Would Mean

For every soldier that we land in
France" says the Scientific American,
400 tons of shipping must pillow back
and forth at steady ten knots to
supply his needs alone. For $4,000
men this means 100 ships-a number
that we would be hard pressed to find.
And this means curtailment of the
vital supplies to our allies.
snow, could the average speed of
this feet be raised TO IL knots and
could the time In port be reduced 10
per cent, we could release for other
service some 10000 tons of shipping.
In other words, we could create i'm
medfately that amount of extra ton
mage and add 1t to our merchant ma
rine, not In 1913 but today. And to-
day may be the day, the real Day the
day the balance will spring"
