San Francisco's homeless people are
now assured of shelter during the
coming winter. At meeting of the
finance committee of the relief COM
mission recently plans were adopted
that cover every phase Of this inmedi-
ate need. While the hopelessly desti-
tute will be afforded permanent mains
tenance, cottages will be built for the
refugees and owners of land will be
added in the rebuilding of their houses.
All in all, DIR. Devine's project covers
an expenditure Of many millions ana
the action of the relief board is the
most noteworthy since that body took
charge of the relief work
Three millions will be set aside for
the erection of small cottages, to be
built MS expeditiously as possible. The
cost OF these will range from $3.50 to
$1,000. and will contain from four to
five rooms These houses will be scat
tered turnout the city, so as TO enable
workmen to be near their respective
working places.
One hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars II proposed to be used in the con-
struetion and repair of buildings In
public parks and squares. This Is
planned to relieve thousands now
camping in various parts of the city
from the riHoss of winter.

He was examining the meat in a

The greater part of the meat was fair

and beef that was rather questionable
The butcher stood outside with
customer. The inspector called him

Look here" he said, what is your
opinion of this meat here?"
The butcher looked 1t over.

said. ut is pretty old stock"

DOES PERKINS WANT TT? !.
[Sac City SUM-

I'm case the standpatters control tho
state convention" inquiries the Sioux
City Journal, "how would 1t do in the
interest of harmony, to offer Cummins
the second place ON the ticket?' The
reverse Of that proposition was made
to the editor of the Sun this week by
an earnest supporter of Mr.. Perkins,
who resides in Sac City. He believes
that in the interest of harmony it
would be the proper thing for the
Cummins people to let Mr. Perkins
have the second place on the ticket. II
the Sun were to give the name of the
man making this suggestion, it would
be that of one of the best known citi-
zens of northwestern Iowa.

MORE POLICE OR BETTER ENFORCEMENT

Is crime and contempt for law in
creasing Chicago answers in the at
firnative by the addition of 1000 men
to its police force. Des Moines, the
largest city and center of criminal
Z populate in Iowa, has been gaining
an unenviable reputation with its
growth, Other growing cities have the
same problem of a growing criminal
) class and opposition to law In greater
or lesser degree If the question is to
be honestly answered there is no doubt
that crime is on the increase in cities.
4 In towns and the country the reverse
Y is true. With the exception of very
few instances where circumstances are
peculiar, the small cities, towns, vii
lagos and countryside of Iowa are
largely free from those who make
crime a profession.
One chief reason for the immunity of
the country and the small city from
professional criminals may be found
in the attitude OF citizens and officers
toward crime. They refuse to recog-
nize the truth of the assertion so COM
mon in cities, 1--WE always have had
them and always WILL In fact they
refuse to have them. There are hun
dreds OF justice court dockets in Iowa
that have never been stained with the
record of a criminal case and to thu
credit of the Iowa farmer be it said in
passing that many a country Justice
of the peace serves out his term with
out issuing a summons, warrant or
subpoena.
To be- sure things are different in
the city, So is the attitude of the
citizens and officers toward criminals.
In Des Moines the newspapers speak of
a man indicted for theft or robbery as
prominent politician In every
city the police court grinds it daily
grist. big Mary" who ran amuck
deavored to make a slaughterhouse of
the resort where she ply her shameless
trade, pays $40 and costs for the priv
ilege. the tough who raised a rough
house in the saloon or. billiard hall
where guns We're displayed or shots
fired, pays out on a charge of disor-
derby conduct. Both go back to come
again and pay another fine for grave
offense until the time comes when the
patrol hurries down the street to a
call of murder.
The need is not more law but strict
or enforcement of law. Not for mora
officers but officers with sterner
faces and less expectant attitude to-
ward the minor criminals graduation

of the candidates to light here and at

CATION which didn't happen to suit. A
contest might be established because
the call wasn't published in the Dutch
Calf, or because Charlie Thomas and
Cal Murray got their heads together in
the South Fork caucus, or because
there wasn't sufficient number OF
chairs in the convention hall and some
body had to stand up. Any of these is
quite as valid as many of the bases
for contests which have arisen iIt this
campaign. And yet we hear SO good

FACIAL PARALYSIS
Nervous Distortion Of Face Cured by

What appears to be slight nervous

neglect the warning symptoms, but
should see that the starved nerves are

of the body, and the best nerve tonic and
food is DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The
experience Of Mr.. Harry Bemis, of

substantiates this.
