Republican City Committee Holds
an Enthusiastic Meeting and
Re.organizes for Campaign
EFFECTIVE WORK PROMISED
D. J. Harff is Continued as Chairman
of the Committee, and Matt C.
Schu1ien is Named as Sec
retary-Hot Campaign

Kenosha Republicans are united as
never before for the election of John
Hegeman as mayor and the entire Re-
publican city ticket. Monday night
meeting of the Republican city COM
mittee was held at the office of County
Chairman r. V. Baker, and it proved
to be the most enthusiastic meeting
of the committee held in several
years. Every ward in the city was
represented at the meeting, and the
preliminary reports from the field
showed that the work is already we'll
in hand. The reports from the wards
showed that great deal of personal
work is now being done. In some
wards house to house canvasses are
being made.
The committee wasnre- organized by
the election of D. ]. Harff as chair
man, and Matt c. Schulien, the Re-
publican candidate for city clerk, was
elected as secretary. The committee
will open headquarters at the office of
| A. E. Buckmaster, and the headquar-
tiers will be opened daily until after
election.
Meetings will besheldaeach evening,
at which time reports from the field
WILL be received sand arrangements
made for .lookingsinto those parts of
the city which are in need of Repub-
1ican work.
The committee has decided on an
aggressive campaign and there will
be no let up until the last vote is
counted on election day. AT the meet
ing last night committees were named
to solicit funds for the campaign and
they started to work this morning,
They met with encouragement and
there is no doubt but that the Repub-
licans of the city will put up plenty
OF money for campaign purposes and
it will not be necessary to ask any
outside corporations to furnish any
/ part of the expenses of the Repub1i-
can candidates.
The Republicans will see..to it that
the campaign is fought out on it's
merits and SO far as the Republican
committee is concernedathere will be
no mud throwing or the use of any
undetermined methods.
The reports from the5wards show
that there is growing sentiment
among the people that the time has
come for change in the politics of
the city and that the city Offices
should be turned over to men who are
ready to state their position Alder
man Hegeman's firm statement of his
standing on.ga11 questions has APP
pealed to the voters and they are
rapidly rallying to his support. The
committee will give its attention to
the campaigns in the:wards as we'll as
to the city campaigns. Several men
have been nominated for office who
, are unfit to represent the wards and
an especially hardafght will be made
to secure the defeat of these men.

An Inyising County.
The very diversity of Umatilla coun-
ty adds spice to its life. The man
with but small means seeking a place
to lay the foundation for a home is
attracted strongly to this county by
the rich opportunities beckoning to
the poor man. Many of the wheat
and sheep kings of the county were
working for $50 per month wages less
than 90 years ago. The upward climb
is phenomenal in this virile region.
The capitalist having wealth to in
vest is also attracted here by the vast
industries. Wheat farms comprising
three and four sections are not un-
common and the great herds repre-
sent hundreds of thousands of dollars
each.
The citizenship is excellent, the So
ciety superb and staunch, the SUR
roundings for home are inviting and
eevating, while the vigor and vim of
the climate gives life and activity to
the toiler.
The incentives to work are strong
for the returns are satisfying. There
is no profitless drudgery as on the
crowded farms of the east. Here is
| ample reward, freedom, health, enter
prise, rugged citizenship, a growing
and developing country and splendid
promise for tie man who is willing to
work and save.
The spirit of the country is such
that an honest and capable man must
of necessity succeed.

A Bride of Morocco,

Says an observer of conditions in
modern Morocco: "The wife is bought
in Morocco today, and the sum paid is
agreed upon between her father and
the would be husband. Sometimes a
cow may be sufficient to procure q
bride, at other times many cattle and
several dollars are necessary for her
purchase. The bride is, Of course,
dressed in suitable costume, but the
most interesting part Of her toilet to a
stranger is the decoration of henna.
The henna, pounded and mixed with
lemon juice is sometimes painted di-
rectly on to her face, arms, hands and
legs. At other times a stencil pattern
it put on her flesh and the perforated
holes filed up with the henna. By the
time this is completed she is tattooed
with dark design. Society women in
more Enlightened countries who wear
lace blouses in hot summer sun often
find their arms and neck burned into
pattern which has much the same eff
feet as the henna tattoo on the poor lit
tie Moorish maid"

Cleaning Mems Clothes.

A tailor of fifty years experience
gives the following information:
All mems clothing to be cleaned
should be thoroughly beaten and brush
ed Some things are so dirty it is alb
solutely necessary to wash them as
any other wooden goods. Iron on the
wrong side. To remove spots, use the
following:
Two ounces of hartshorn, an ounce
of CASTLE soap, quarter of an ounce
of saltpeter. Dissolve in quart of
rain water.

lures, but considers this the best. Put

How the BurrO Eats ThistIes.

The Rocky mountain burro, one Of
the most sagacious of animals, seeks
the thistle as a favOrite food, and the
pungent spines with which it protects
it's leaves at every angle are doubtless
a recognition on it's part of this fond
ness of grazing animals for it. Few
experiences of frontier life are more
amusing than to watch the donkey's
attack upon a large bull thistle. He
walks about it, seeking for a favorable
opening, projects his lip gingerly
against it's spines and jerks back as he
feels it's pricks. He surveys it pensive-
~ for q moment or two and then slow
ly raises his foot and strikes it, paus
ing to watch the effect of the blow.
He then perhaps strikes it from the
other side and watches again. The
blows become rapid, and at length it is
broken down and thoroughly trampled,
after which it is consumed to the last
vestige.-Country Life In America.

Butter is hydro carbon, and all ex-
cesses of it are stored up as fat in the
body. 1t gives energy and power to
work to those who eat heartily of it.
For any one afflicted with consumption
butter cookery, If plenty of fat can
be digested, is one of the best ways Of
curing the disease should it be in it's
early stages or of keeping it at bay If
advanced. 1t is not economy to spare
the butter at table even to the healthy
people. Butter is not simple fat
composed merely of one sort. It is a
mixture of no less than seven different
sorts Of fats, and no more complex oil
can be taken than this. For dyspeptic
and liverish people good bread and but
ter, along with fruit, should invariably
take the place of pie, pastry and bis
cults. Pastry for such people is only
another name for poison, and biscuits
are as often as not baked with lard

HumOr In Journalism.

Next to a million dollars hearty
laugh is about as pleasant thing as one
can have. Everybody really wants to
laugh. No man and no newspaper can
be really great without sense of humor.
The Chicago Record Herald regards the
promoting of smiles and laughter as
part of the legitimate mission of the
press. For years the "Alternating Cur
rents column of S. E. Kiser in that pa
per has been a source of delight to it's
readers. The cartoons of Ralph Wilder
OF the first page also are designed to
make people laugh-and to make them
think as we'll. In fact the humor of
The Record Herald, like it's news col
umns, is always clean and kindly as we'll
as amusing and entertaining. 1t affords
a striking example of the right way to
tell the truth laughing"
Famous humorists contribute to the
Sunday Magazine of The Record Herald,
with the popular novelists and celebrat-
ed writer's on timely questions. Both
text and illustrations are of the highest
standard of periodical literature-the

fected.
