Plans for the installation were drafted by Frank Mahon. At Wrangell, Rice and Ahlers have the contract for installing the heating plant in the new Pres- byterian Church. A Ray oil burner is betng put in. Trane concealed heaters, the first of their kind in church construction in the north, are being installed. John Ahlers is in charge of the work. The same company last “week completed remodeling the heating unit of B. M. Behrends Bank build- ing here, Mr. Rice said.

Harding in the Federal District Court this' morning. George B. Grigsby, who with Srank H.

The injunction was continued by Judge Harding, ordering the claim- ants to cease cabin building and other occupancy, until a trial can’ be had. No definite date was set for such trial which, it was under- stood, will be held when the miss- ing witnesses can be assembled. The action was brought some ten days ago by the United States For- est Service aaginst Willlam E.

The Murphys, it was shown, have built a small cabin on the camp site and the others claim ownership interests. e DETROIT, Aug. 17.—Babe Ruth is ‘credited with an out, and a pitcher with an assist.

If $3,000,000 or $5000000 were spent in the congressional campaign, of a duration of only sixty days, it was an unprecedented outlay, and Chairman Raskob in- timated that he might disburse a million dollars in the agricultural states alone. Whether he did so, has never been disclosed. Consid- ering the cost of mid-administra- tion campaigning, the sizeof “slush fund” budgets in presidential years is not so monumental and appal- ling, after all. It is a big country, and reaching the voters by varied means is necsssarily expensive.

Small home papers are read through and through and are thus all powerful in molding public opinion. The big newspapers are not to be under-estimated in the influence they wield, but they are read hurriedly by busy people, and are chiefly effective through their head-lines and cartoons. Or- gans lost their usefulness years ago and are today rarely in evi- dence. The masses resent dicta- tion. They think for themselves, or think they think. ‘e Grafters are” active in every campaign and all propositions submitted must be considered with one’'s fingers crossed. These may be easily headed off. Well mean- ing, but, impractical schemes, often sponsered by men of standing make for the maximum of waste. In the campaign of 1920, a big New Yorker, a generous contributor to the cause, and therefore, soberly conceived the idea of selling to the Republican committee in gross some 250,000 gas masks, accumulated in the purchase of left-over war ma- terial, which he thought might be used by republican clubs over the country. The thought of thus hid- ing marchers behind gas masks was ridiculous in the extreme, and was politically vetoed, naturally. He went away satisfied, but, an hour later, telephoned suggesting these masks might be available for wo- men’s clubs. A tactful second veto mildly followed.

Saturday, Gov. Ross S. Sterling of Texas, mobilized Guardsmen for service in the East Texas oil tields, which he declared he would put under martial law to curb the production of oil, Oklahoma reinforced the Nation- al Guard force that recently was ordered in the Oklahoma oil fields and that is successfully enforcing the shut-down of flush-wells in an effort to bring an end to overpro- duction in the oil industry. Gov. Charles W. Bryan, of Ne- braska, announced he would call out the National Guardsmen of Nebraska, if necessary, to enforce irrigation laws and to regulate the use of irrigation water. An acute situation has developed in Ne- braska, because of the scarcity of irrigation water, normal supplies having been greatly diminished by the drought. tional committees will be establish- ed on a permanent working basis Then, there will be more coher- ency and less waste in a campaign.
