DEFACING BOXES ON
A RURAL MAIL ROUTE

The Moline Dispatch says that
some persons have been maliciously
defacing and injuring the mail boxes
on the rural route. These boxes are
made of east iron and are very
strong and impervious to weather,
but can be destroyed if one deliber-
ately works for that end. They are
not proof against battering rams,
stone and shot. They seem to have
been used for targets. Uncle Sam
will send n real live bogy man after
the people who do this sort of thing
''ef they don't watch out
Here is Uncle Sans law on the
subject of injuring letter boxes:
Every person who wilIfully and
maliciously Injuries, tears down, or
destroys any letter-boX, pillar box,
or other receptacle established by
the postmaster general for the safe
deposit of mail or for delivery, or
who willfully and maliciously as
saults any letter-carrier when in
uniform, while engaged on his route
in the discharge of his duty as let
ter-oarrier, and every person who
willfully aids or assists therein, shall
for every such offense be punishable
by fine of not less than 500 and
not more than $1,000, or by impris-
Onment for not less than one year
and not more than three"

Americas Greatest Railroad.

America is the possessor of the
best railroads in the world, and
while this may seem a broad state
ment, it is absolutely true. Such
rank can only be gained by estab-
fishing system that stands for per-
lection. This is also true about
medicine. About fifty years ago a
remedy was first introduced for
stomach, liver and bower complaints,
and during those years has been rec
ogni.ed as the limit of science in
presenting a perfect medicine. We
refer to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
When your stomach becomes derang-
ed, and you suffer from Indigestion,
dyspepsia, fiatulency, nervousness or
insomnia, you will make no mistake
in trying this sovereign remedy. 1t
will strengthen your stomach, purify
the blood and prevent malaria, fever
and ague. 1t viii surely do you
good. Avoid substitutes.

MERCHANTS TALK MILK
l.. b. Strayer, of Dairymen's Union,
Addresses the AssOcia-
ton.

The Rock Island Retail Merchants
association had an opportunity last
evening to- give an expression in re-
gard to the war now. being waged
by the local dairyIneIl Sand the Tri-

pany for the trade of the city. \
committee representing the local
dairymens' association consisting of
Henry j. Raithel, Frederick Matthey,
George Noss and August Gottsch
waited upon the association and pre-
scented their side of the case. 1t was
argued for the dairymen that they
number some 35 in and about this
city and they make and spend about
100000 annually in the city. The
new company, il was claimed on the
other hand. would spend less than
fourth of that amount here and
the remainder would go to farmers
so far away that none of it would
find its way back into the city. l..
Il. StrayeF presented the reason why
the mil<men refused to accept the
terms of the company when the offer
was made to purchase the milk they
produced. He presented figures TO
show that the price offered would
not give a profitable margin over the
cost of production. He also gave
his reasons for believing the dairy
mans product as now, sold in the
city to be superior to that which the
company would collect from the
farmers of Whiteside county. The
association took no action in the
matter.
The question of paying the annual
per-capita tax of so cents for each
member of the local association for
the support of the state association
was brought up by letter from the
secretary of the state body declar-
ing that IL had been done by the
other associations of the state and
it was finally voted TO comply with
the request. 1t will amount to about
$50.
The next regular meeting night
would fall on Dec. %, so it was voted
to pass the date over and make the
time of the next meeting in January

dent if business demanded. Other
