PETITION TO CORRECT EVIL

Butler, Pa, April 2.-Records yellow
with century's age were unearthed in
the office OF Clerk OF courts Robert NJ
Mcfarland today. They show that q
high-cost- living crusade was in pro-
press as early as 1904.
A document filed with Judge Moor In
that year is signed by 100 citizens pc
titioning the court to set "a stipulated
price on provisions for man and horse
and on liquors In the taverns Of the
county"
The petitioners assert sit is the con-
census OF opinion that 25 cents for a
meal of victuals and - cents for half
pint of whisky is an extortion, as
whisky has been purchased for 40 cents
a gallon, pork at from to 4 cents a
pound and flour for So per hundred
weight"
The records give no evidence as to
whether the prayer was ever answered.

Pittsburg, April 2.-Andrew Carnegie
flew into rage today when he heard
that Mayor Magee had been hooted
from the hall at an anti-yice meeting
last evening.
1T is a shame and disgrace" said
Carnegie.
That's no way to go about reform.
Why, even criminal is allowed the
privilege of answering his accusers, yet
the mayor OF Pittsburg is not. / re-
peat it's shame and blot on the city
that such conduct should be counten-
anced Mayor Magee showed great
courage in walking into that meeting.

Mr.. Carnegie.

FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 1910.

Was that talk of local option
law enforcement all a bluff or
are some of our county officers
wilfully blind to the bootleg
ging" now going on in Grange
vile? Are they now afraid to
enforce the law for fear it may
damage their chances of re-elec-
ton this fall? If the latter,
what kind of public officials
would they make if elected?
There is certainly something rot
ten somewhere and it is about
time something was being done
to clean up the "mess. 1t is
public knowledge that liquor of
all kinds is being almost openly
sold in the county seat town but
so far nothing has been done to
stop it and this right under the
eyes of the county officers, the
law enforcement league, and doz-
ems of private citizens who claim
ed during the campaign that the
local option law would be enforc-
ed to the letter and that boot
logging" would not be allowed
to flourish. Isn't it about time
these claims are being made
good? Is it right or just for the
smaller towns to be kept dry"
while the larger ones are sous
ed" to the limit? Let the law
be enforced on all alike. That is
what it is for. If it cannot be
enforced then return to the IL
cense system and strict regula-
ton. We doubt greatly if there
are any Grangeville citizens who
will claim conditions are better
there now than before election.
At least, none who are thorough
ly conversant with what goes on
in that town.

We notice that several of the
farms in the country north and
east of town are pretty badly af-
fected with the wild mustard
this year and some of the Jim
Hill mustard is also appearing,
especially along the railroad right
of way. These weeds are the
bane of the farmers life when
they once get we'll started and
everyone should exercise especial
care to rid their fields of the pest
as rapidly as possible. Summer
following does not seem to kill it
out to any material extent or else
it multiplies so rapidly that the
amount killed hardly becomes
noticeable. When left to spread
at its own free will it soon takes
an entire farm andis then prac-

tically beyond control. If you
have any mustard in your field,
Mr.. Farmer, see that it is pulled
up or cleaned out at once and get
your neighbor to take as good
care of his adjoining land, other
wise you may soon have no land
left to farm. Also work to have
your legislators this fall secure
the passage of a noxious weed
bill which will force all owners
of real estate to keep their land
free from such pests under pen
atty of a heavy fine.
