The
domestic trouble between Mr. and Mrs. Frank Boots has not been satisfactorily adjusted. It sc-ems that Mrs. Boots left home again latt Tuesday evening and went to Joe Willis' on North State street. An inquest was call for today to inquire into her sanity. She employed Elmer J. Binford to appear for her, but before the case was taken up Mr. Boots dismissed the case and paid the costs. The board of inquiry was composed of Justices Geary, of Greenfield, and Finnel, of Maxwell, and Drs. Black :1 and King. There will perhaps now be a division of property and a petition for divorce. Such family troubles are always to be regretted, but especially so when they occur in families so well prepared to enjoy life.
Noble Warrum Jr. Jfor Secretary of State In Utah.
Noble Warrum Jr., who is editor of the Logan City Journal, was quite an influential number of the State constitutional convention recently held in Salt Lake City. He is quite prominent in politics and may be the Democratic candidate for Secretary of State as the following extract from the Salt Lake Herald, Utah's leading Democrat paper indicates.
LOGAN'S DAMON AND PYTHIAS. Reports from Logan indicate that there is still an interesting contest on between Hart and Warrum for the judgeship. There is now a proposition to nominate Warrum to be secretary of state, as he is especially fitted for that position. If this were done that would leave a clear field for Hart. t% The REPUBLICAN is glad to learn of ttie success and advancement of all of
Hancock county's old boys. In the language of Old Rip Van Winkle, "May they live long and prosper."
The Orip,
An
experience with this disease during ail its past epidemics, warrants the bold clu-im that Dr. King's New Discovery will positively cure each and every case if taken in time, and patient takes the ordinary care to avoid exposure. Another thing has been proven, that those who have used Dr. King's New Disoovery, escape the many troublesome after results of this disease. By all means get a bottle and try it. It Is gauranteed, and money will be refunded If no good results follow its use. Bold by M. C. Quigley. 14yl ,/g, Wanted—8,000 subscribers to the *wkly RsruBftCAjr. See notice die
