HE ROBBED THE GOVERNMENT
Postmaster Who Issued Money Orders
to Himself Without DepOsiting
the Cash Pleads Guilty.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Nov. II. =
Thomas M. Sloan, postmaster at Di-
mondale, pleaded guilty before Judge
VANITY in the United States court to
issuing money orders to himself with
out turning in the money represented.
The Indictment was made by the Unit
ed States grand jury last week and
charges that he issued five $500 money
orders.
Sloan was one of the best-known
politicians in Eaton county, and was
we'll known in the state. He was for
merly a member of Representative
Washington Gardeners congressional
committee. He was relieved from Of
flee three months ago, but the people
Of Dimondale did not know the reason
until his arrest, which caused much
surprise. 1t is understood that poll

One has often had the thought
when suicides came under their
observation that if someone were at
hand at the critical hour.with relief,
often not more than a word of
cheer, the period of depression might
be tided over. Impressed by the
suicide statistics of Cleveland, there
having been sixty six suicides with
in the past nine months, Mavor
Johnson has appointed a suicide
commission. If any one IN Ian
caster gets to the point where the
plot is too thick come round and
talk it over. At all events don't do
anything foolish until you talk it
over with some fellow who can see
bend in the road IN the darkest
night.

The Teller has been barking up the
wrong tree" If a claimant presents
a bill against Grant county in excess
of the legal rate, which is examined
and allowed by the county hoard,
the board is to blame and should
be held responsible. 1t is the duty
of the board to know the legal rate
and to allow no more. Anybody
has a right to ask as much for his
services as he thinks they are
worth. If the board makes him a
present Of any excess, whose fault
is it? Whose fault would it be in a
private business deal? If person
pays more for piece of merchandise
than it is worth, he is not asking
the merchant to reimburse him.
The board is here to protect the
interests of Grant county and is
responsible to the county. But the
board has protected the interests of
the county at all times, and nc
money has been wasted.

STRIKE NOT GENERAL
RUSS SITUATION NOT so BAD
Movement Lacks SpOntaniety-Tie-U Up
at ST. Petersburg Is Bad Enough,
HOwever-Drug Stores Closed.

st. Petersburg, Nov. IL. - Though
the industrial tie-up at st. Petersburg
yesterday was even more complete
than it was Wednesday, and though
no break has been manifested in the
ranks OF the Workmen, and strikes
have broken out at Moscow and Reval,
days developments was the failure Of
the walkout to spread generally out
side the capital. The movement ap-
parently lacks the spOntaniety and con-
tagiousness of the last great strike.
The whole network of railroads center
ing at Moscow, except the st. Peters
burg line, is still in operation.
The strikers at st. Petersburg forced
the closing of the Moscow railroad sta
ton early yesterday afternoon, stop
ping outgoing traffic for Moscow and
at 10 o'clock last night they finally
succeeded in closing the electric sta
tons and in cutting off light from the
city. Committees were sent to all the
theaters, and succeeded in stopping the
performances in several of them, and
in the outlying districts they went
from drug store to drug store ordering
the pharmacists to close and threat
ening them with the destruction of
their stocks if they refused. Such acts
as this ALLEVIATE popular sympathy with
the strikers.
At meeting of the strike committee
last night the question Of the termina-
ton of the strike was not brought UP,
but the Associated Press noticed an eX-
pectation on the part of many Of the
delegates that the strike would end Sat
urday night. The imperial manifesto
regarding the distribution Of the crown
domains is expected to tend to pacify
the peasants and have an important
tactical effect on the coming struggle
for members Of the dOuma.

directors preceded the submission Of
the investigating committees first re-
port. This committee, which was
named to examine into the affairs Of
the company, made a significant re-
quest for broadening Of it's power
and recommended changes in practices
by the company (which on their very
face are loose, unsound and open to
criticism"
The committee recommended that
pending it's further inquiry the eXecu-
tive officers adopt Immediately policy
Of retrenchment. The preliminary re-
port was adopted, together with the
resolution increasing the powers Of the
committee in continuing it's investiga-
tons. The directors ordered that full
publicity be given to the report as
we'll as to the statement made by
President McCurdy.
President McCurdy, in his address
to the trustees, outlined a policy of
retrenchment the executive officers had
decided upon. He declared he did not
know what was contained in the report
of the special investigating committee
and he did not desire to forestall any
thing the committee might do, for he
would abide by it's decision.

STILL MORE GRAFT.

Editor Pollock's bill for printing
the judicial ballots last spring was
81 per thousand for %, 900 ballots, a
total of 1854 for the job. Editor
Dugdale Of Platteville printed an
equal number of school superin-
tendent ballots, and his bill was
S7 so per thousand.
Last year the Herald's bill f I
printing the judicial ballots was
So so per thousand, or just half as
much as Pollock charged. Our
price was high enough-a fair living
rate, and Pollock must have known
what it was.
The solution is simple: Pollock
wanted to collect $77 more than
anybody else thought of charging.
With anybody outside of the Teller
office this would be graft, but
with the Teller it was only a mis-
take.

THE "NERvE" OF IT.

That small portion of the popula-
ton of Grant county who have been
deluded into believing the Teller
patriotic and sincere in the row it
has been trying" to kick up by ac-
cusing nearly every body with dis
honesty, will come to with shock
when it is known that Pollock has
done the very things that he now
brands as graft"
One Of his loudest howlsl was
about alleged overcharges for print
ing the tax lists-a painstaking job
for which the county pays not one
cent more than it is worth. By con-
sulting the county treasurer's books
we found that Pollock in 1878
charged for each description in cases
where the descriptions were run in
together, in exactly the same man
ner as they have been paid for
since that time. And be it remem-
bered that the list was several times
longer at that time than it is now.
Pollock considered this one of the
most colossal of all the "grafts. !"
Therefore, if what he says is true,
he is one of the original king-bee
grafters.
That promising young sGsleuth,
1.-The junior editor" Grant county's
watchdog of the treasury" should
dig a little deeper when consulting
records, for he must rememb Der that
the Pollock name is very much in
evidence in the records of public
affairs of various kinds during a
period when his watchful eye and
tactful mind were not directing the
affairs of the old gentleman.
