publlcans did, and would demand more
law enforcement.
While this element sought to make
law enforcement the dominant issue
a Victory for either side would have
left the police court and the police
department in the hands of men who
were not elected upon that issue of
law enforcement as understood by the
Law Enforcement League.
SO that law enforcement was not
the real issue in. the election. Some
OF the ministere in their pulpits ad-
mitted this and were very fair and
reasonable in their sermons demand
ing the enforcement of the laws of
the city
But the fact remains that the elec
tion was carried on other issues more
than on law enforcement Those who
voted the Republican ticket did not
vote against law and morality as has
been concluded by some. There are
as many morality-loving people in the
Republican party as in any party and
In place of further degeneration there
will be moral Improvement in Salem
the next few years.
The Republicans know that they
owe something to the moral elements
of the community and so far as the
Mayor and City Council are concerned
they will be found leading rather than
retardIng the moral progress Of Great
er Salem.
The ministers and other good peo
pie who can see no vice in the city
government except It be in connection
with saloons, or gambling, or prosti
tuition. fall far short of sizing up the
problems that confront city govern.
ment and all government.
One great issue that decided this
election in favor of the Republicans
was the battle for the new charter of
Greater Salem, without which there
can be no sanitary regulation or
health development of the city in any
direction.
The leaders of the Citizens cam,
paign were the avowed enemies of
that charter with few exceptions.
None OF the candidates came out and
ever used the word Greater Salem.
The great bulk of the delegates to the
Citizens convention were selected
from among those who had fought
the adoption of the Charter. The
Citizens party would not have put up
la vigorous defense of the charter.
The managers OF the Citizens cam,
paign had fallen into hands that would
have used the councilmen 10 promote
their own private interests and that

dustrial progress Large property in.
terests, In the event of a Citizens
victory, would have stepped 10 the
front and claimed special protection,

of Greater Salem
One large interest was backing two
Citizen candidates for aldermen and
IN they had succeeded would have
proceeded to do business" with the
city in forty ways that the honest
men in the law Enforcement League
would not dream was possible. SO Il
would have been with majority of
any Citizens administration under
control OF the management that got
into the saddle.
To show how centralized the Citi
zen's machine had become, formerly
a non-partlsan committee OF three
from each ward had the naming OF a
suitable candidate for Alderman. Thia

the bill was not for neoessaries for his

CURIOUS THINGS
Come from Coffee Drinking.

A lady in New York City suffered
an accident to her leg and a running
sore followed that medical science
tried to cure for many years. But
unknown to her, the coffee she
drank daily kept the blood in a con-
dition that would not let the sore
heal. Three years ago." says this
lady, "I was advised to drink Postum
and give up coffee, OF which I was
very fond. To say that am thank
fui now for having done this is put
ting it very mildly. for as soon as
made the shift from coffee to Postum
my leg began to heal, and in few
weeks was quite well.
"It has never troubled me since,
and / think it marvellous. Neither
have I suffered from the bilious head
aches which used to afflict me. I can
give you the names Of many OF my
friends who are as firm friends of
Postum as l." Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
This is case where Postum made
red blood in a hurry. This lady
thought 1t marvellous because her
trouble OF years standing was cured
In a few weeks through giving up
coffee and using Postum in its place.
Nothing marvellous about 1t, only the
simplest scientific reasons that IL
will pay any one to look into.
Good healthy red blood will cure
most any disease. Coffee in many peo
pie destroys the red corpuscles a.
produces white or watery blood. A
definite change 10 made by leaving
of coffee entirely and using Postum.
You can prove this By TRIAL

CAPTAIN GEORGE POLK.

Az the ripe age OF nearly oJ
years, Capt George Polk, an old
and honored citizen, passed away
at his home near Bryan, at twenty
minutes past seven O'Clock last
Friday afternoon.
Capt. Polk moved to Bryan from
Dallas in 1889. settling where he
lived up TO the time OF his death
aud since that time has led a busy
life, until increasing years brought
such infrmity of body that ne
labors of long and useful life
were of necessity laid down. llt
was bright Of intellect almost up tC
the time Of his death. For nearly
two years he has been confined 10
his bed.
Capt Polk was a native Of South
Carolina, where he was born July
26, 1914. His father moved to
Tennessee with his family in 1882.
In 1915 the son moved to Pamela
county, Miss. He came TO Texas
In 1885, settling at Dallas, where
he acquired some valuable property,
which in 1889 he traded to Judge
Thomas for the excellent home
near Bryan where he spent the Last
years OF his life.
Capt. Polk was married twice.
Only one child of the first marriage
survives him-Mr. w. G.. Polk Of
Waco. Three sons aud two daught.
ers were born to him. Of the last
union-Leonidas, Luoius aud Robt.
l.. Polk, aud Mrs. j. II. Perrin and
Mrs. b. ;. Jackson. Mr.. ID. c.
Wick Of Bryan is step-son. Mr.. w.
G. Polk Of Waco and Mrs. Jackson
of Kennedy, New Mexico, were the
children living away from Bryan
who were present at the bedside
when he died. His widow, Mrs.
Polk, Survives him.
Capt. Polk was a member Of the
Masonic lodge. During the war
between the states he vas captain
Of company in state service OF the
state Of Mississippi, and he had
three sons who served throughout
the war with Forests cavalry.
The deceased was universally
esteemed as a man of honor and
integrity. Beneath a stern exterior
beat kind and tender heart.
For his family, he had ever
but the tenderest care. 4
child upon whom for years has
been laid a heavy affection, was in
his thoughts almost up TO his dy-
ing breath, and he spoke Of him
with tenderness aud concern. TIE
approach Of his own dissolution
was viewed by him with cheerful
ness and content. A man who, as
he saw them, has met the duties of
life and its responsibilities without !
and with no more than
MS share of human frailties;
" h ose powers are spent, and |
Who is ready to go, his life went
,ut peacefully and beautifully, !
like one who wraps the drapery
# his couch about him, and lays
himself down to pleasant dreams.
The funeral service will be held
L the residence this afternoon at
$50. The intermeni will be az
he City Cemetery at 4 o'clock,
nd will be conducted by the Ma.
onio fraternity.
