ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL TREE.
Planted N DEBORAH by Even G. Rudd
Oct. Ii, 1912 in Honor of
Theodore Roosevelt.

That famous Lincoln memorial
tee has brought to light here the
fact that another tree was planted
il DEBORAH in honor of one of our
ex-presidents, Theodore Roosevelt.
This tree was planted by Even G..
Rudd, an East Water street business
man in honor of Ex-President Roose-
welt when he was shot in Milwaukee
by an anarchist The tree is now
about 20 feet high and has develop
&C into fine looking tree. No
doubt this tree, too, will End its
way into the hall of fame. Mr.. Rudd
has had the following information
about the planting of the tree print
ed on a large sign:
Monday night, Oct. II, 1912,
Theodore Roosevelt was shos and
severely wounded in Milwaukee
Wis. The next day l went into the
woods and dug up a black walnut
tree, which l transplantel on the N.

COUNTY SELLS VOTING MA
CHIMES.
1wenty-Seven Machines Used Here
Once Sold for S27OO.

Winneshiek county has had 81
voting machines stored in the court
house for the last fifteen or sixteen
years that were used only once and
cost $17,500. The company they
were purchased from is now out of
business.
AS we understand it the machines
could not be used at the primary
elections, only at general elections.
We believe there was considera BILE
litigation about the machines after
they were purchased. and used
once, and the board ait that time
abandoned the use of them entirely.
Even though these machines Gould
be used here now, the fact of the
women going to vote would neces-
state more machines, and the fact
of these machines on hand being
out of date they would he no good
to the county, the board decided 10
realize what they could out of them.
They We're sold to the Automatic
Registering Machine Co. for 500
apiece, or $1,000. The machines as
we understand it, will be shipped to
the factory and dismantled and
parts used in other machines made
by the company.
