The refined and festive table sparkles with bright silver and cut glass.
Life s heroic and joyful moments are marked with a jewel or a bit of gold
or silver. Life itself is measured by the jeweler's watch or clock.
The jeweler serves the finest and best interests of life. His place can never
be taken by those who dicker in jewelry, solely on a commercial basis, with
out the heart interest of one who loves his craft. ' '
You suffer as well as we, if you are not in touch with a reliable jewelry store.
The stocks in this store are chosen with skill and care from a wide and con.
glomerate market where experience is needed to distinguish the worthy from
the worthless. Wc offer both economy and satisfaction.

Roberts Withdraws
His Resignation.
County Commissioner Geo. AV.
Roberts, who filed his resignation with
County Clork Yost Friday, served notice
on Clerk Yost Tuesday that he had re
considered tho matter and would with
draw his resignation. This withdrawal,
however, apparently comes too late, for
when Clerk Yosf as recording officer
of,tho county, filed the resignation it
was in act of acceptance, and tho
vacancy in the olllco existed from that
time, for the letter of resignation
stated that it became effective at once.
Had Mr. Roberts set a definite time in
advance for his resignation to become
effective and before the date set he had
served notico of its withdrawal, then it
would have been recognized.
The withdrawal of tho resignation is
n move on the political checker-board,
aed it was made in order to prevent the
appointment of'a republican momber of
the, board. The power to appoint a suc
cessor to Mr. Roberts lies with the
qounty clerk, county treasurer and
couTty judge. Tho two former ofilcinls
are'repnblicans, and in caso of n demo
cratic and a republican applicant, with
fitness being equal, It would bo no more
than proper thnt tho republican bo
selected. This is a point at once seen
by democrats when tho resignation of
Mr. Roberts became known, lience their
insistence upon him thnt he file n with
drawal. To have a republican member
of the board -even though the other
two members are democrats-would,
from a democratic standpoint, be a dis
grace. County Clerk Yost, backed by the nd
vico of the acting county nttornev, will
stand pat on u non-acceptance of the
withdrawal, and will hold that a vacancy
on the board of county 'emmissioners
exist. Arrangements have been made
for an appointment next Monday morn
ing. The two most nctive applicants for
the position are John Kelloher.democrat,
of Maxwell, and E. II. Sringer, repub
lican, of llrady, both of whom have
been members of the board in the past.
We understand thnt Mr. Springer is
backed by a petition signed by a very
Inrgo number of residents, both demo
crats nnd republicans, of tho Second
district.
School Opens
Tho loial school opened Monday morn
ing under very favorable conditions for
a profitable year. The registrations
wero made the latter part of last week
and assignments made to tho different
grades.
The enrollment in the high school
the first .day was two hundred nnd
thirty-five. Last year tho enrollment
for the first week was two hundred and
twenty at the end of the opening week
and the, year previous tho record
showed pne hundred and ninety.
Owing to the crowded condition of
the rooips in the Lincoln school in the
Fourth ward the school board voted
Monday evening on a division being
made and nn extra teacher employed.
It is expected that she will be here
Monday to take the new grade.
Seven teachers will bo employed in
tho new Jefrerson building in the First
ward which owing to tho intorior paint
ing not being cornploted, did not open
until Thursday morning.
A telegraphy course will be intro
duced in the high school under the di
rection of E. II. Flowers. The Union
Pacific company thru the Western
Union are furnishing tho equippment
which will be ready for use in a few
days.
Two extra typewriters have been or
dered for tho commercial department
which Is in charce of Miss Ilartlev.
Tho em oilmen is for the ward schools
are uncertain owing to their crowdnd
condition nnd a report of the number
in each grade cannot be made until
the necessary divisions are made which
will bo made the latter part of this
week. The high Hchool cadetH and
foot ball team will organize this week.
