Miner Bill a Step Forward
But Not Enough.

The MINER bill, restoring democra-
cy in school affairs, is past both
houses of the legislature and before
the governor for signature. If passed
by Blaine it will do more than any
thing we know of TO make the people
respect and value a democratic and
fair government. It's passage should
further strike confusion into those
who sought by means of the old law
to force their will and opinion upon q
majority.
But all is not done Restoring DEM
ocracy is not enough. The schools
must go forward. The problem Of how
to ensure this and to fairly distribute
the burden is one for the best brains
we have.
Communities should not be forced
into consolidation and heavy taxation
against their consent. Other commun-
tiles should not be forced to carry the
burden of educating the children OF a
community at large.
With these two fundamentals stated
and understood we can go forward TO
the next which assumes that as the
state demands higher education for
the child the state should wisely and
fairly provide the means.

urday after a miscue. The plaintiff,
Harvey Abrams, bid $28,650 to open
This was raised by the canning COM
pany up to $30,600 and bid in by r. NJ.
Orchard for $4,000 Mr.. Orchard, as
it developed, was acting for John
eastman A stipulation required
$4,000 down and the balance when
the papers were made out. AS the
down payment was not forthcoming

money has been paid. He may deed
to the canning company at their bid
or the property may be re-adyertised
and sold again

WET BADGER SOLONS
NOW REST UPON ARMS

MADISON-Wets Of the Wisconsin
legislature have ended their assaults
on the prohibition laws for this sea-
son.
The Tucker bill for the repeal Of
the state dry act which was killed
by the senate, was the climax of wet
efforts after an all-session attempt to
bring some relief from the official
drought.
One of the last wet measures to
hang fire was put out of existence by
Assemblyman SiXtus Lindahl on
Thursday.
On his motion the Kamke bill to
reduce the appropriation for the state
prohibition department from 100000
to $4,000 was taken from the table
and killed.
For the last few weeks attention
has swung from legislative debate on
the prohibition question in general to
an inquiry into whether legislators
drink liquor.
With the settling of Eric Johnson's
resolution for an legislative probe
the question of liquor will not longer
play prominent part in this session
if mentioned at ALL

HEAVY STORM
SWEEPS CITY
MONDAY NIGHT

A heavy rain and high wind visited
Lancaster Monday evening about $50
o'clock. The downpOur lasted an
hour and reliable observers place the
total fall at between one and two
inches.
Streets were flooded and storm
sewers proved unable to carry the
water off. Small lakes formed N
every sizeable depression and small
boys had fine time of it for an hour
or two after the rain.
The wind did considerable damage
to fine trees and number were
blown down or had huge branches
broken off. /. In front Of the Felix
Wanazek home on W. Hickory street
broken trees barricaded the street
One tree, d foot in diameter was
broken off at the ground Broken
limbs Uttered the streets and various
premises Of the city.
Considerable lightning accompanied
the storm, but no damage from this
source was visible from a survey Of
the city made about D. N.
Telegraph and telephone lines were
silent out of Lancaster yesterday, al
though the more rugged power lines
rode the storm in safety. Standing
crops were more or less damaged AMI
farmers report considerable soil
washed in fields. Loose stuff was
washed from the roads and all travel
lanes were open yesterday.

A "Wide Open" Town
is Not a Good Town.

Some people claim that WIde
omen" town is the best kind of a
town. For business, they generally
mean.
with booze being sold. 1t means a
town where gambling is permitted. It
means a town where vice is recogniz-
ed and tolerated.
The people who start town wide
omen" do not always realize where II
will drift to. Their idea is to not be
TOO hard on people and to let things
slide along in an easy-going manner
But it gets away from them and
eventually they stand secretly aghast
~ how bad conditions are.
NOT good towns. Inevitably the price
r,nsf be paid. 1t is paid in its worsi
form by corruption Of young people
man mar ia say nothing Of women.
- same day the piper demands his
nav in the wide open" town. The
pprice IS always a bitter one

Peoples State Bank
Shortage Placed at
$4,000 to $4,000

Commissioner of Banking, Dwight
Parker, declined yesterday to give
more than a general report of the
Peoples State Bank condition. In re-
Spouse to a request by the Herald
based on general and natural inquiry
in this community, Mr.. Parker said:
ut is impossible to reply other
than cursorily at present Our check
up indicates a shortage of between
$4,000 and $4,000 Whether this
will be increased or not depends upon
how the bank paper turns out 1t
may prove in one hundred percent or
it may prove worthless in a degree.
That will be known later"
This is the first official and credit
able report Of the banks affairs re-
ceiyed to date 1t should give the
public something definite as to the
banks coalition. III.
Further shortages depend upon tile
condition Of the banks paper. The
last footing places the total in this
class at 1888 1882. This paper may
prove entirely authentic and collect
able up to a reasonable degree. Some
that is not Immediately collectable
may prove so later. This check-up is
proceeding now.
No further action toward prosecu-
ton has been taken. All defendants
remain on bail j. Harold Pugh was
remanded to the custody of the sheriff
Saturday morning when his bail was
surrendered by S. w. DoOlittle.

BLUE PENCIL MARK
INDICATES ARREARS

Subscribers noting a blue pencil
mark around the name tag on their
paper may take it as a gentle and po-
lite reminder that their subscription
is past due and should be paid.
AS most people are aware a news
paper would go broke" very quickly
did it depend entirely upon subscrip-
ton receipts. Either that or the
quality would be cut so low that no
body would want it. The bulk of the
revenue comes from advertising and
this depends upon a clean-cut and
large list to make the advertising Ell
fective and profitable.
Nevertheless, while the subscriber
does not pay more than half the cost
Of production on a newspaper he pays
part and the revenue from him is
needed in the business.
The Herald is proud Of its big list
and feels certain that in a majority
Of cases it is mere oversight that the
subscription has not been paid.
If you note q blue pencil mark
please take steps at once to place
yourself in good standing. Thank
YOU

Fish Stories

John Gourlie, fishing at Klondike
Sunday caught a 3-pound German
brown trout near the big spring.
Another man caught good-sized
rainbow. The fish were making for
clear water and the stream was alive
with game species.
Fishermen and picnickers along Nc
Phers0ns branch ran for their lives
Monday evening when the big storm
struck along the Ellenboro ridges.
1t is SAID that the trout formerly in
McPherson's were in the Mississippi
yesterday. Both Platte and Grant
were out of their banks.
Stanley and Donald Hickok, fishing
at Wyalusing bay Sunday, caught an
even dozen large pickerel of 4 to Z
pounds weight The boys used arti-
fetal Fischer" bait to make the big
catch They had them on exhibition
in FollO's window Monday. The
boys made casts for the Dig fish and
had a good deal of sport landing
them.
Fred orion fshed on Grant river
Sunday, returning with a creelful Of
speckled beauties. Grant river de-
fies rules in proving to be good trout
stream. It flows south, which is sup
posed to make poor trout water; it is
big; it has no brush along the banks
to speak OF; it is more or less muddy
at all times Nevertheless, some 81
the biggest trout caught in these
parts have come from Grant and that
in the past year or so.

looked in consideration of the fine
