Saloons or No Saloons.
Saloons or no saloons will probably ;
be the main issue at the spring elect- :
ion next April. Petitions are now j
in circulation asking for a referendum :
vote on the question of saloons or no :
saloons and there is no question but j
what the necessary number of signa- :
tures can be secured so it will be the :
big question at the election. The •
question has never been raised at an :
election here before and there is a :
good deal of speculation as to what :
the outcome will be. •

Gets $7,000.00 Verdict.
In the case of Harry McDaniel vs. :
the Burlington railroad company, •
tried in district court last week, the :
jury awarded McDaniel $7,000.00. In ■
this case Gerald Harington, son of :
M. F., made the opening argument for :
the plaintiff, and it was likewise ;
Gerald’s first address to a jury in dis- z.
trict court, but those who were pres- ;
ent in court and heard him could hard- ;
ly believe it was his maiden effort :
He delivered a splendid argument, and j
gave evidence, that with a little more :
experience, he will be an eloquent j
pleader before a jury. The nervous- j
ness, that is so often apparent in :
young and inexperienced lawyers and ■
in many of the older ones when they :
are addressing a jury, was entirely :
absent. He was perfectly at home j
and had the several points made in :
the case, that were advantageous to ;
his client, arranged in form and used j
them in his argument to drive home j
the point that he was making. Gerald ■
is a bright young man and The Fron- j
tier predicts a brilliant future for :
him in his chosen profession.
Miss Kate Grady left the latter :
part of last week for Chicago, where j
she will purchase her spring stock of !
millinery.

Ezra Sprague died at the home
of his sister, Mrs. R. H. Mills, in this
city last Sunday, after but a few days’
illness of pneumonia. He was born
and raised in the Dorsey neighbor
hood, leaving this county last July
and moving to Wyoming where he
had taken a homestead. He was ta
ken sick about a month ago and de
termined to come back to this county
and remain here until spring. He
reached this city last Thursday in a
very weakened condition. Although
all that medical skill and loving
hands could do was done it availed
naught and he passed peacefully
away Sunday evening. The remains
were taken to the ecmetery at Dor
sey for interment Tuesday. Mr.
Sprague was a little over 21 years
of age at the time of his death. The
friends of the family in the county
tender their condolence in the hour
of sorrow.
