Watseka Editor Fined and Didn’t Get Sore About It.

The editor of the Watseka TixnesDemocrat is a game sport Brother Kelly was fined $lO last week for trespassing on some recently built roads on which travel was prohibited. He paid the fine most gracefully and says- “ The fine was paid cheerfully, with the knowledge that while the ride was dear at half the price, the lesson was worth all it cost. The commissioners have been pestered by people driving over this road before it was ready for traffic and they are not blamed for making an example of some one; and are admired for picking a fellow who could go through the operation without leaving any sore spots.”
