THE ENDLESS CHAIN

With the coming of spring, squirrels,
gophers and sage rats regularly appear,
to devastate the fields of growing grain.
Early in the season. when their natural
food is scarce, their numbers may 10
greatly diminished by a systematic We
fare upon them. Every female knlad be-
fore the young are born, reduces tho
number of pests at least ten later on.
'Woodlark" Squirrel Poison Is the most
reliable and destructive agent yet devised
for their determination. 1t is an abso-
mtely certain instrument Of death for
squirrels, Every kernel is warranted to
kill Climatic changes, dew, frost, or the
moisture of the earth do not effect it's
strength. 1t requires no mixing or prep
aration, and is always ready for use. No
other is so good. Dealers win refund the

The ordinance provided for the

news that the republic had been
placed in a state of national defense
against Holland ran through the city
like wildfire, and in a few moments
there was an enormous crowd in

dent Gomez.
As Gomez made his way across the
plaza to the yellow house he was
received with enthusiasm. The vel
low house was crowded with a nuIner-
Gus assemblage OF the most distin-
guished citizens of Caracas. Speeches
were made demanding that all politi-
cal prisoners be set at liberty and that
the existing government monopolies
be abolished.
The threatened danger from with
out had a double effect on the people
and they demanded measures of pro-

Old Law and Order Night
Rider Controversy Gets Into
Court at Murray. Grand Jury
and Recount Unavailing

Murray, KY, Dec 15.-(special. }
county's primary fight
was not finished by a recount OF
votes, but suit has been filed In cir
cult court against the successful cam
didates and the former county COM
mitteemen to set aside the primary
on the ground of illegal voting and
failure to call the primary forty days
before the date set.
The plaintiffs are ID. J. Alexander,
who was defeated for county Judge
by e. p. Phillips; j. X. Matheney
who was defeated for circuit clerk by
Joseph Lancaster. and w. A. Patter-
son, who was defeated by Waiver
Holland for sheriff. A recount of the
votes resulted in increasing the ma
jorities of the successful candidates,
and a grand jury investigation into
alleged participation by Republicans
in West Murray precinct resulted in
no indictments. A cousin OF County
Judge Wells was presented on a
charge of contempt based on the
statement Of juror, tenant of a de-
feated candidate, that Wells had ap-
preached him and advised him not to
vote indictments.
The truth is, 1t seems, that there
was a combination between Republi-
cans and law AMI order Democrats to
support the ticket, which won. Not
all the defeated candidates were
night rider sympathizers, but as in
the case of the sheriff, Walter Hol-
land was opposed by night riders be-
cause he had been so active in prose-
cutting them.
The Republicans have no show in
a general election In Galloway, and
in order TO insure the success of the
law ami order ticket, they paired of
with Democrats in the general cleo
ton. voting for Bryan so as to qualify
for the primary. The primary result
was close, and Judge Cook instructed
the grand jury 10 take action when
ever@h fodaaethat q Republican had
voted in the primary. Nothing came
OF this attempt and then a recount
was held.
