Rutherford, commonly known as “Glad Haad Al,” | county commissioner and pal of “Charley” Beckingham and “Dan” Abraham, squanderers of county money, together with} their “side partner,” Jimmy Agnew, who fa to get the nom ination for sheriff, are all putting“their heads together to “do” | Hodge, if such a thing is possible Yesterday Rutherford sidled up to Hodge on First av,, followed by Abraham, and remarked that hereafter the county commissioners w » the buying of provisions for the sheriff through The were afraid that Hodge might pay too much for beef and flour, and felt it to be their bo: to the strain him Hodge took one long, deliberate look ule a agent.’ countyY commissioners “purchasir mden duty taxpayers to re at the two brazen faced gangsters, and then emphatically told them that as long as he was sheriff, neither they nor their catspaws, in the shape of “purchasing agents,” would ever come fooling around his jail, He would buy his own provisions, and thus see to it that the county didn’t get jobbed. Then he turned his back on the commissioners and walked away Ever since Hodge announced that he was going to feed prisoners at cost and return all unused appropriations for feed- ing to the county treasury, there has been a plain intention on the part of the commissioners to thwart him by making the cost of provisions high Their tool in this scheme was to be a “purchasing agent,” who would pay two prices for the supplies necessary for feed- ing county prisoners. To allow the jail to be conducted at a reduced cost would be to reflect discredit on preceding administrations, especially on that of Sheriff Smith. Never before have the county commissioners even pre- tended to take an interest in the saving of taxpayers’ money in the sheriff's office. Heretofore any money that a sheriff wanted, he could have and welcome, for all the commissioners cared. But Hodge is an altogether different proposition. He doesn’t belong to the court house gang, and they are afraid of him, and mad to boot. Their organization is in danger It is evident now that the gang have caught a couple of Tartars, with Carrigan to trouble them inside of their board, and Hodge on the outside. To make things worse for them, Hodge will have the keys of the jail in his pocket. A RED GERANIUM EDITORIAL It isn’t often that geraniums break into the Mmelight of newspaper publicity as subjects for editorial discussion, but just now they are eatitied to attention. The presence of 25,000 gerantums is needed at the A-Y¥-P. expo- sition. They are required for decorative purposes next spring. Beauty unadorned, in the shape of large tracts of university campus land, tan't much to look at, but with large flowering beds of geraniums there next summer, the landscape will be quite attractive. In hundreds of dooryards our people are today suffering their Serantums to remain exposed to frost and killing cold, instead of tak- jag them into their houses, or cellars, for preservation until next 2 en Beene Why not let the A-Y.-P. authorities have the plants and take care roa them this coming winter, so as to have them ready the exposition grounds as soon as warm weather re not take the plants to the exposition people, you can at & postal, telling of your gerantums, which can be had taking—and they wil) send a wagon. course, next Saturday, being “Geranium day” at the grounds, you ean get inside and inspect the beautiful new buildings by paying geranium at the gate instead of the usual admission price.

No woman who understands the sewing-machine would go back to hand-stitching. No woman who understands Fels-Naptha would go back to the old way of washing clothes. Fels-Naptha is more than a different kind of soap—it is a differ- ent way of washing. Which is what we mean when we ask if you understand Fels-Naptha. You don’t boil the clothes; you don’t even use hot water. You don't stir the clothes; you don’t even do much rubbing on the board. All the hard labor you used to do ourself to loosen the dirt, is done by Fels-Naptha soap. With a white wash, you simply wet the clothes, rub the Fels-Naptha soap on them, then put the pieces in the tub with just enough luke- warm or cold water to cover them In ahalf hour, the Fels-Naptha x will take it all out. And the ith boiling and hard rubbing. The Fels-Naptha way is easy to understand—simply follow the directions on the red and green’ w rapper. ‘The faiture of imitations emphasizes First Look Back Then Look Ahead Take Y earned a lot of money in that time You Have Ten Years aa the period you saved as much of it as you easily had vor $6 a week less. could? that been $2 You'd have gotten along all right Suppose your wages a week le if you now figure how much LESS you COULD have gotten along with, and de cide to put even HALF that much tn the Bank every week for the NEXT Ten Years, you will achieve very substantial success; and you witli find the Compound Interest a considerable advantage.
