The oil inspection law is a joke.
The committee says 1t should be
repealed or amended SO as 20

The committee says there has
been evident crookedness in the
sale of tide and shore lands bat
lit has not had time to dig the

The state fair management is
commended except that 1t Is run

HOW MERRYMOUTH LEARNED TO FUCKER
downright, 1911 o. by TIE Autborb
BY Gabbleoff.

by GaDDleOII.
Merrymouth was happy littlt
chap with sunny hair and smilini
eyes and lips with laugh arounl
them. That's why he was Gale
Merrymouth, and let me tell you
boys and girls, you couldn't ask
for a more loveable name. He
laughed because he was happy
and he was happy largely because
he laughed. He wasn't a mere
silly boy who laughed at every
thing. like his California cousin,
Gigglygoose. No, indeed. He was
Just light-hearted and good-na-
tured and saw the pleasant side
of things.
OF course, when Merrymouth
grew into a big boy, seven or
eight years old, he wanted to
whistle. Every boy does. And of
course he had trouble in learn
ing. Every boy does. Only Mer-
rymouth had more trouble than
others. Whenever he tried to
whistle he felt so funny that his
mouth broke into a smile and
spoiled his quicker. He felt sure
he could whistle if only he could
keep his pucker. He would screw
his mouth into a little gimlet-hole
and draw his breath in and it
ALMOST made sound, and then
he would blow his breath out, but
that wasn't so successful, and be-
fore he could get his tongue
curled into the right place his lips
would break into laugh in spite
of all he could do. 1t is rather
a strange thing to say, but he had
to take his mouth clear to Califor-
mia to teach it to whistle.
There was another habit of this
little boys mouth which might
mention. 1t was very fond of hav-
ing good-tasting things put into it..
Maybe you have a mouth like that,
too. When I was a little boy l had
a mouth very much like that-ant

Do GOOD
WORK

The Times today acknowledges
the receipt of over 100 Individual
contributions made by generous
tpeople to save the installment
plan home of Mrs. Holmes, who
since the death of her husband
and the birth of her child has
been unable to work to keep up
the payments on the home.
The Times is gratified with the
response and feels certain that its
efforts by the help of the people
to relieve the little family will be
successful.
Arrangements have been prac-
tically closed with C. N. Gill to
have Mrs. Holmes account trans
ferred to a cheaper and smaller
home. BY this plan the money
which she and her husband paid
in on the original account will be
saved for her and she will be COM
fortably settled in a little home
where as soon as her health i'm
proves she will be able to provide
for herself and baby.
Praise for Il. II. & p. Men.

MOVING PICTURES AS AID
TO DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN

New York, Oct. 26.--It was an
nounced at Tammany hall tonight
that arrangements had been made
WITH a number OF moving picture es-
Establishments and vaudeville houses in
the city where the high cost of living
with the accompanying charge of re-
publican responsibility will be illus
trated every afternoon and evening
from tomorrow night until the end Of
the campaign.
1t is planned also to flash on the
screen such sentiments these
"Mr. Roosevelt breaches against race
suicide and yet thetariff law he ad-
vocated tends to keep the market
basket empty"
Vote against those who are respon-
sible for the high cost of living"
"Mr. Roosevelt has the nerve to ask
your husbands to vote for his can
didate."

REGISTRATION SHOWS
BIG INCREASE
HAMILTON VOTE NEARLY DOUB.
LED AND VOTE OF COUNTY
MAY REACH 5000.

The period for registration of vot-
ers for the ensuing general election
ends tomorrow Saturday night at 8
o'clock Any person who is not reg
istered cannot vote.
Last night, according to the big
book total of 1900 names had been
registered in the two Hamilton pre-
cincts. Deducting 176 that had been
checked off, representing the dead
those who have left the county and
those who have been transferred to
other precincts, we have total of
1 1924 who are entitled to vote. The
registration of the last two days will
doubtless swell this total to between
l 100 and 1900, more than twice the
number that voted in the last general
election two years ago. In 1908 only
594 votes were cast for presidential
electors in these two precincts. In
that election the total vote polled in
the county barely reached 1000.
Registry Agent Frank Hoagland
predicts, and he says his figures are
very conservative, that not less than
900 votes will be polled in Hamilton
this year, as against 594 two years
ago.
If the same proportion of increase
holds good throughout the county, as
it doubtless will, total of more than
5000 votes will be polled, an increase
of more than so per cent-evidencing
a remarkable growth in population.
