Although we were opposed to -such a procedure, perhaps this little showing -up shower was necessary to convince the doubting few that we have have a good county conducted by an efficient and honorable set of officers. We believe that an examination by the state examiner would have been all that was necessary to set everything right. Although he appeared before them to. explain in detail his report, it is an erronecks statement which conveys the idea that the Grand Jury had anything to do with the refund made by the county commissioners of excess mileage drawn dur- ing their first few months in office. Much credit should be given the members ,of the Grand Jury for their fair-mindedness in deliberating on matters brought to their attention. It has been alleged that the records were literal- I ly combed in an attempt to bring forth evidence sufficient to war- rant indictments, but in every instance where irregularities were found it was shown that they were purely mistakes absolutely void of any criminal intent, and immediate rectification was made. BURY THE HATCHET Now that the grand jury cloud of suspense has been lifted, let us turn our attention to other and happier themes. We are one people united for the common good, and as such let us drop all petty differences for nothing is so enervating to a community as dissention. Let us once more join hands and pull together as we did a year ago, and as the time is drawing near for our first birth- , why not c - eiebiate like we - aid - a year ago? From Alberton to Saltese let the pipe of peace be pasW and, once more, let the purple hills echo with harmony and good will. Already we hear the rumbling of a coming county election, let us deal deliberately and wisely in our future choice; Let us not forget as a represent- ative body and free moral agencies we have the power to elect or reject. The women will use, for the first time, the elective franchise and will play no small part in future elections. To her this privilege has been granted, and let hers be the conscientious duty to use this privilege wisely and well toward the welfare of the community and the betterment of the home. 9 Our observations of things locally confirms our believe in the old saying, that if a man continually plays with fire he is bound to get burned ocAsionally. A $250 exhibit at the state fair would be the greatest \knock' Mineral County could receive and, incidently, $250 thrown away. But $250 would go a long ways toward putting in good con- dition a bad piece of road. \NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS he Superior State Bank Mineral County's Only Bank Capital Paid In $20,000.00 Banking In All Its Branches 41 The small depositor will be made as welcome as the big fellow. 1jJ We are a home institution with strong outside connections.
