During the past few weeks THE
DEMOCRAT has been filled with
campaign material and many news
items were either cut short or
omitted entirely and some corres
pondence also was left out to meet
the demands of the campaign , and
for which we now beg pardon of
our readers who may have been
disappointed in not finding the
usual amount of locals.
L. C. Sparks spent several days
up the road last week on business ,
stopping at Gordon and Cody
where he was reminded of his en
gagement to speak on the immi
gration question by seeing a copy
of THE DEMOCRAT and hastened
home on the local. We learn that
the talk was so acceptable that
Mr. Sparks has been requested to
speak again on that subject ; at the
Presbyterian church at some fu
ture date not yet selected. ( This
item was crowded out last week. )
The ninth graders enjoyed a
very pleasant time last Thursday
evening at the home of L. C.
Sparks where they were royally
entertained after a jolly ride
around town in a big wagon with
a hayrack on , during which time
they made the air ring with joy-
ons laughter and school yells.
Punch was served from a huge
pumpkin , sandwiches and cake in
orange colored baskets and a big
basket of chocolate placed con
veniently for all to sweeten a
tooth. During the entertainment
they told ghost stories and soon
departed for another ride in the
big wagon with kind remembrances
of Mr. and Mrs. Sparks for their
pleasant cutcrtoinineut.

Officials of most of the big life in
surance companies state that a per
son who consumes not more than
six or seven glasses of beer per
day is as good a risk as a total ab
stainer , and one of the largest In
surance Companies in England
found on a test covering 40 years
that the death rate amongst a class
who were moderate drinkers of
beer was lower than amongst total
abstainers. The purest and most
delicious beer on the market today
is Slorz Blue Hibbon. itsmoUerate

Chas. Peddicord died of cancer
on his jaw and throat at the home
of his sister at Washburn , Mo. ,
Thursday , Oct. 2ilh , after a pro
tracted illness. About two years
ago Charley had Dr. Brown , then of
Valentine , cut out a cancerous
growth on his lip but didn't cut
deep enough to get all the roots
and before the cut was fully healed
up began to swell and formed a
knot on his jaw similar to that
caused by a bad tooth , and physi
cians who examined it were un
certain whether it was caused by
an ulcerous tooth or of cancerous
origin , but the latter proved the
case and it grew and caused great
pain until it was again cut out ,
leaving a great gaping hole under
his jaw which never healed up and
finally an exposed artery broke
and he died a few hours latc r.
Mr. Peddicord was formerly fore
man for D. A. Hancock and joined
the M. AY. A. lodge at Simeon
several years ago as a charter
member and carried § 2,000 in
surance , which will go to his wife
and three children.
Miss Flora Mac Hornback .and
John A. Thomson were married
by Rev. C. E. Connell at the home
of the bride's parents in this city
last Friday , Nov. 1 , 1907 , at high
noon.
A. John was best man and Miss
Lillian Holsclaw bridesmaid.
Only immediate relatives and a
few friends were present.
A wedding dinner was served
after the ceremony anrl the happy
couple departed on the passenger
for Clinton , la. , to visit relatives
of the groom , and from there they
will go to Chicayo for a few days
visit , after which they will return
to their home -Shoshoni , V\ryo. ,
where Mr. Thomson is express
agent.
Mr. Tliomson was formerly ex
press agent at Valentine and was
obliging and gentlemanly , making
many friends , and it was during
his stay here that he became ac
quainted with Miss Flora who is
a beautiful young lady and won
his affections , and we hope a hap-
p"y huirte for them both.
