made for economy and careful use and con trol of public funds during his of ficial life will stand the closest in spection and may be pointed to with pride Another matter that was a source of satisfaction and pride to Mr Bolles was the question of the agri cultural development of Red Willow county His work in connection with county and state fairs cannot be duplicated by any living citizen of the county He was most active and persistent in this matter and some ol die finest exhibits ever made in Lin coln are to be credited to him Mr Bolles was an ardent and zeal ous Mason and the great
