A highly esteemed German citizen, a strong and upright man and a lead- ing and influential Democrat of Rock- ville township, announces as a candi- date for Judge of the Southern dis- | trict, a position for which he has often been mentioned and one so ably filled by his father, the late Judge Fred Fix. Mr. Fix has lived the greater part of his life in Bates coun- ty. He has made a success in farm- ing by his own ability and energy and owns one of the best improved farms Me --w. in his section. He is a man of broad leas and strong convictions, has a ql idea of county affairs, has al- oe been a working Democrat, and would make a strong nominee for the ticket. - “ p. C. WOLFE.

Ballock narrowly es- caped being shot early Saturday | — morning when some unknown person | discharghed a gun on the east side of | the square, the bullet striking the sidewalk near the sheriff. | Mr. Bullock had come in on the north bound, which was late, and went, with night officer Duncan to Alsbach’s cafe fora lunch. Leaving the cafe on his way home, he started south on the east side of the square. As he approached the stairway be- tween the Star Theatre and the Globe | Trading Company, a gun was dis- |charged a short distance ahead of him and the bullet struck the side- | walk near him. The flash of the re- | volver seemed to come from slight- |ly above. As soon asthe shot was | fired Sheriff Bullock stopped short |and remained absolutely quiet think- ‘ing to hear some sound by which he | might locate his assailant, but was | unable to do so. | Mr. Kerr, proprietor of the restau- |rant, stated that he heard some one | descending the back stairs between | the restaurant and the Globe Trading | Co. Up to date no clew has been dis- }covered which would reveal the | identity of the party or his motive. Charged With Serious Offense. | The special grand jury which was called Monday returned an indict- ment Tuesday against F. H. Donning- ton, of Mound township, charging him with rape and defiling his ward, |a thirteen-year-old girl. Donnington was immediately plac- ed under arrest, but was later releas- ed on bond of $2,500. The case will be tried at the October term of th Circuit Court. : The special grand jury was called Monday afternoon by Judge Denton and was composed of the following gentlemen: O. C. Atterbury, Paul Levy, J. A. Wear, Ed. Williams, Mat Rosier, W. S. Arnold, J. K. Norfleet, W. P. Abel, J. W. Poffenbarger, L. S. Radford, A. H. Culver and Jas. Combs. Rev. J. T. Nevins and Attorney Grant Barker, of Montgomery county, are at home from atrip to Canada. |While in Winnepeg Mr. Barker bought his wife a woolen shawl, pay- ing $4 for it. When he reached the U. S. line he found a custom officer who informed him that the duty on the shawl was $8. The manufactur- ers can produce the shaw] for the same money in the United States as in Can- ada. But our tariff laws enables the trust woolen mills of the United States |to make $7.50 more profit on the | shawl than the Canadian manufact- | urer gets and still undersell the mer- chant across the line. This explains | millionaire trust magnates on the one hand and the high price of everything ; you buy in the store on the other. \If you don’t like it, vote the Demo- | cratic ticket. | School Election Legal. | The question has been raised as to the legality of the special election to be held due 2st to vote bonds for | the erection of a new high school building, and there has been consider- able discussion in to the matter. A letter from f. H. A. Gass, mercial Club, gi . election is strictly in conformity with the law, thus settling all doubts upon that score.
