AWAITING OFFICIAL COUNT.

The official canvass of the vote cast upon this
proposition to issue state bonds in aid of establishing
a comprehensive highway system in the state, has not
yet been made. The unofficial returns indicate that
the proposition was carried generally believed to be
ten to one. The vote was light but the majority was
heavy enough to satisfy the most enthusiastic good
roads advocate. At no point in the state, so far as is
known at present was there any determined opposi-
ton. In a great number of precincts throughout the
state opposition was expressed in a very few votes,
while Upton and Rock River came through with unani-
nous results for the bonds and the former has only
to await the official count until she can make draft
on Thermopolis for the five thousand bucks she has
won from the Hot Springs city. When she receives
the funds Upton can well afford a new and larger
sign board, one with more red lettering upon it than
the present one has.
While the road bonds have carried handsomely it
may be noted that local school bonding propositions at
many points were defeated at the regular elections
held about the same time.

We are informed that Mr.. Wilson is about to break
out in print, with a few thousand words in answer to
some OF his critics. 1t will be some different now.
No one will care overmuch for schoolmaster lectures
on theory when we have SO much real work to do.
Many Of our most difficult tasks, since we became ac-
quainted with Mr.. Wilson, consist in extricating our
selves from the various holes he got US in by depend
ing upon him to lead the way. We are simply hoping
that it will be not more than twenty years before we
recover from the curse of wisconsin.
But if Mr.. Wilson can still secure any iov ont of
jawing his critics and boring the public with his COM
munications, after as complete a reputation as he
received, let him proceed. He will discover, # moth
ing more, that space in the sun and space on the first
page are both occupied, and post mortems are not in
~teresting to the public.

During the time a Democratic administration was
endeavoring to injure the good name of Senator New
berry by trumped up prosecution in the interest of
Henry Ford, he absented himself from the senate
chamber as good taste would suggest. Since the
courts nave completely exonerated the senator he
has resumed his seat to which the people of MICHIGAN
elected him and taken up his duties.

"THE MAN
A RHYMED REVIEW
By Russell Holman

Far away from the hustle of cities
In q spot that was countrywide
famed
Lived asMiracle Man, strangely gifted
To deliver the stricken and MANNED.
To this patriarch old in his cottage,
With q plan to reap wealth from his
deeds,
Came a group fromthe slums of Man
haitian,
Who obeyed no command save their
needs.
There was Burke and the Girl and the
Dope Fiend
And a misshapen brute, their decoy.
Then a Miracle happened! The gang
sters
Found the vile in their hearts was
alloy!
For the pure, guileless life mid the
mountains
Brought ideals that cleansed smirch-
ed hearts of crime,
It'll lat last even Burke, the foul
hearted,
Freed his soul from the faint OF It'll
slime.
It's a picture that tugs at your near
heartstrings
Full of thrills, mixed with laughter
and tears.
When you g ii you'll echo with
thousands:
"Takes its place with the Creates
in years."

JEFFERSON CITY, March 8, 1921.
Editor Iron County Register see
from an editorial in the Enterprise
that the distinguished Pigg is SO sorry
for the poor old Iron and Reynolds
because they are fortunate enough to
be represented by Democrats. Now
as to myself l am willing to leave my
ability to the people of Reynolds, and
I will say for Iron that she is ably
represented in Mr.. Black.
Mr.. Black Is not a silver-tongued
orator, but he is always here and
votes with intelligence, and this is
more than can be said for some of the
accidental bone head Republicans that
are here owing to their accidental
election, and / am SURF no such an
accident would occur again soon II
all the voters of Missouri could be
here and see just how able some Of
the accidents are, including the dis
tinguished gentleman from.St. Louis,
Mr.. Moore, who is a real black and
kinky one.
OF course, there r soma able men
here in the Republican party, but
God grant that the accidents never
again return to our great Capitol to
blunder and cost the State untold
thousands.
Yours truly,
