R How to End the Jail Peeding Graft, The Bes has been fighting the Iall feeding graft for many yeurs and, st one time, seemed to have succseded In wtopping this abuge Through The Bee's efforts, a law #as enscled by the legislature providing for fesding county Jall prisoners by contract upon the same plan | that the prisoners in the city Jull are fed, and thix wystem was Insugursted and continued throughout the two terms of Bherit! Brajley with most setisfactory results not only in the | handsome saving offected for the tax payers, but algo In the character of the food furnished 10 the Jall inmates With the sdvent of the present demo- cratie sheriff, the possibilities of reviving the Jul) foeding graft proved too tempting and, with the ald of shrewd lawyers, he secursd n conrt docision nullifying the contract feeding law Not content with that, the sheriff and bis con- tingent fee pariner, turned lobbylsts and manip- ulated the legislature into making a feeding al- lowanes of 32 cents a day per prisoner, of which twothirds Is profit which he pockets in sddi- tlon to the §4,000-a-year salery and mileage uttached to the office, This jall feeding graft should be stopped by the next legislature, but it will never be stopped If the present sheriff remains in office and is able to block It, 1f the contract system s imponsible, as the courts indicate, then the law should be made so that the sheriff must et as agent for the county In supplying food for the jall, with the county footing the bills Just as it does, for example, for the detention home and the poor farm, As candidate for the republican nominstion for sheriff, Michael L., Clark has given as- surance that, it electod, he will be satisfied with the legsl salary and that he will not put anytbing in the way of the enactment of a pro- per measures for feeding of the prisoners at cost to the county, There will be no trouble with the lawmakers unless the man who makes the profit gets busy to perpetuste his rake-off. A vote for Clark will, therefors, be & vole lo end the Jall fegding graft, Struggle of GHants, Two million or more automoblle owners and other thousands of gasoline consumers are Aili- gently searching for a gun to wing the fiying price of oll. Vocal protests and kicking the pump produce no responsive echo at the sign- board. With the serene confidence of a citich the elevating figures look the consumer in the eye and calmly intimate that haste is necessary to escapo the next jump. In all canes of current price boosting the re- sponsibility is placed on war, It is the evil genius of ascending steel products, of lumber, dyes, drugs, dry goods and eatablen, Every producer with things to sell senses the war as a stimulator of prices, passes the uplift down the line, each handler adding his bit before it reaches the con- sumer., The ofl Interests are quite as patriotic a8 the other fellows, their reach is In good work- ing condition, and melons ure thelr quarterly favorites, Masters of the art of scooping the coin counld not sit 1dly and let all the coin roll by, It is doubtful if they will “hog the trough” much longer, Unltke other price |ifting mag« nates, the oll barons are up against the whole automoblle Industry and sutomobile users, an aggressive and resourceful multitude, foreed in polf-detense into a united body, No means of rellef, from a congressional searching expedition 1o possible substitutos, will be left untried, Im perilling & vast business by boosting the cost of power Lo prohibitive figures may yel prove (he means of undolng the oll monopoly, e A noted dootor dlagnoses the country's chief allment as o lack of first class fathers.
