Candidacy,
Washington Dispatch, 18th.

Washington Dispatch, 18th
Representative Goodwin of the
sixth district being hard pressed
by several ambitious citizens who
would succeed him in Congress,
has issued a most unique paper
which he calls THE Voice Of the
People"
The publication, which he is
sending out by the thousand. is
in the form of a four-page,
three-column newspaper, the
front page being illumined by his
picture. The printed matter is
made up Of excerpts from news
papers. There has never been
anything of this kind issued in a
primary contest by a North Cal
DINA candidate for Congress.
The idea is entirely original with
Mr.. Goodwin AID he thinks so well
of it that he has employed a half
dozen young women to mail 1t
out to his constituents.
j. L. Fox, serving a 12-year
sentence in the State prison at
Raleigh for manslaughter from
Arson county, was shot to death
by prison guards Monday in or.
der to prevent the escape Of g
number of convicts who had con.
spired to get away and who at
tackled the guards. Fox escaped
from the prison nearly a year age
bv making up a dummy that hi
left in his cell to fool the guard:
and was recaptured recently il
Connecticut.

fellow living; he is able, affable.
clean and courageous. Last week
his friends gave him a boost, and
if the lick keeps up he may come
to Washington. Before the race is
over Representative Goodwin will
feel the force of his character.
He is one of the most valuable
citizens in the State. His ever
lasting industry, native shrewd-
ness, and manly traits have
made him a power in the bust.

But, forgetting all else, he is E

milk of human kindness in his
soul.

Follow this advice.

Quaker Oats is the best of all foods;
it is also the cheapest. sWhen such
men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne,
LID RS. of London spend the
best parts of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities of different
foods, it is certain that their advice is
absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found in his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. Tie powers of endur-
anCe OF the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.
Sir James Crichton Browne says
eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of it and
eat it frequently. g

Mr.. SCRANTON REPRIMANDED
Engineer Officer OF The Indiana Was
Court MartiaIed Al Annapolis Ia
September

After being reprimanded and noti-
fed that he would be reduced ten
numbers in grade. Lieut.. Edison E.
Scranton, U. s. N, engineer of the
battleship Indiana during the recent
summer cruise, was yesterday re-
leased from arrest and restored TO
duty.
Lieutenant Scranton was tried by
court-martial at the Naval Academy
following the cruise, the charges
against him being inefficieney and
negligence in attempting the repair
of an engine on the Indiana. The
specification alleged that he at
/ tempted to compound the starboard
main engine by securing the low
pressure piston in mid-position with
out remoing any or all of the valves,
a method not practical on board the
Indiana.
As a result of this method. the
| specification charged, the low-pres
| sure cylinder was damaged, the
starboard engine was put out OF
commission and the efficiency of the
Indiana thereby impaired. The pub
lie reprimand, which was written
by. Rear Admiral Reginald I. Mich
olson, acting Secretary of the Navy.
was as follows:
ITO an officer who takes pride in
his profession, trial and conviction
on this charge is in itself a greater
punishment than any reprimand. To
one without that pride reprimand
would be a waste of words.
1.-The publication of the general
court-martial order containing these
remarks will, therefore, be consider
ed as compliance with so much of the
sentence as relates to public repri-
mand.
Lieutenant Scranton will be re-
| leased from arrest and restored to
