COMMISSIONERS ATKINS.


A few days since Commissioner At
kins gaven Office that he will, at the next
session of the Council, which will con-
yene next Tuesday February "a, submit
an amendment TO the garbage ordinance
whereby will be reinstated the provision
requiring the city to remove waste and
refuse paper and material from business
houses instead Of by individuals and by
firms as specified in the ordinance now
in force.
In his explanation Commissioner At
kins comedies that the innovation, re-
quiring the removal of waste paper and
material from business houses by indi-
viduals or firms, is unpopular and there
fore he yields TO the wishes Of the peo-
pie.
In recognizing this authority which is
reckoned as supreme under the commits
sion form Of government, Commissioner
Atkins has placed himself in a most
eommendable attitude before the people
1t is not questioned that the plan pro-
posed BY Commissioner Atkins for the
removal Of waste paper and refuse mat
ter, not designated as garbage, is pos
sessed Of merit, but the people should
have been educated by degrees to its en-
forcemetlt This observation applies
more directly 10 business men who could
not be made 10 understand why they
should Be compelled to pay for the rel
inora1 Of the waste from their stores or.
Offices when they, as taxpayers. were
contributing their full share to the de-
partnent charged with the responsibility
Of keeping clean the alleys and streets
OF the city.
Il Is conceded that in instances The
abuses by individuals in dumping in
boxes or barrels matter besides waste
and paper, is fagrant and should be reg
ulated within reason. and It is clearly in
the authority Of the commissioner to
designate what material is trash and
what IS garbage
Trash Is anything worthless. such as
waste or anything which can be incin-
Grated in the crernatory.
Garbage is refuse matter, rubbish.
such as tin cans, bottles. etc. which are
for the dump and not the crematory.
Every firm and every householder can
and should assist the commissioner il.
keeping the alleys and the stre-ts clean,
and this can be done advanta geoasly If
each individual firm o. householder

BAD BLOOD
OFTEN Inherited

Bad blood does not always come as
the result of careless living, or indis-
cretions it is a condition frequently
inherited. Normal healthy blood
contains millions OF tiny red corpus
cles, which are the vitalizing and
nourishing element of the circulation,
their office being to provide every
portion of the system with its neces-
sary strength and nutriment. In
weak, impure blood these corpuscles
are lacking in numbers, and therefore
the blood is not able to supply the
proper amount of nourishment to the
body. Bad blood manifests itself in
many ways, With some it takes the
form of skin diseases and eruptions,
others become bilious and malarious,
with sallow compilations, torpid liver,
etc. Bad blood produces Rheumatism,
Catarrh. Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula
and like troubles. Nothing is equal
to S. S. S. as a remedy for bad blood;
it is the greatest of all blood purifiers,

ELECTION BOARD
SOLVES PROBLEM
RE SOIL TlON ACCOMPLlSHES
WHAT LEGISLATURE FAILED
ON-NAMES TO BE ROTATED.

The third legislature when it ad-
journed on Saturday night permitted
to die the proposed amendments to-
the primary election law. The bill
had been passed by the senate and
was on its third reading for final pass
age in the house on Saturday. For
some unknown reason the bill was not
taken up for final consideration. The
state election board having some ad-
vice as to the probability of this hap
pening was called together on Friday
and Saturday and decided to pass
| resolutions to correct some of the
principle objections urged against the
method heretofore used in placing the
names of candidates on the ballot and
in securing an estimate of the ballots
needed in the different precincts in
/ the state so as to prevent any short
age.
The complaint made by certain can
didates at the last primary was at
some precincts in the state there were
not sufficient ballots, and the other
complaint was to the effect that the
first position on the ballot was the
cause of many candidates being nomi-
mated that would not have been if ev
cry candidate had had an even break
on ballot position. Hence the follow
| ing resolution was introduced by Sec
retary Gordon at the meeting Satur-
day and was adopted:
Whereas, the principal objection
urged against our present primary
law is that the present provision Of
the law does not guarantee precincts
against a shortage of ballots and,
Whereas, there is no law prescrib-
ing the manner in which candidates
names shall appear on the primary
ballot, and the practice heretofore
Of permitting same to be printed in al
phabetical order, which system is un-
fair to a certain class of candidates,
Therefore, be 1t resolved: That
the secretary of the state election
board is hereby ordered to require
Of the secretary of the county election
boards throughout the state to file an
estimate Of the ballots required in
each precinct for each and every or.
ganized party. Said list to be furnish.
ed ninety days preceding any general
primary. The secretary is further or
dered to add 25 per cent more ballots
than is estimated by the secretary of
the county board.
BE it further resolved: That after
an estimate is made of the number
Of ballots, for each precinct that the
secretary of the state board shall use
this as a basis to print the ballots for
the different political parties. The
number of ballots estimated for each
precinct for each party shall be added
together, which will be the number
required for the state at large accord
ing to the party strength. An equal
number of ballots shall be printed for
each candidate of the same party seek
ing the same office. The names of
these candidates shall be arranged in
alphabetical order according to their
surnames. and the name that comes
first shall be printed first on the bal
lot in the first division; then his name
shall be dropped to the bottom of the
list and the second name shall be
printed first on the second division
and so on. This method shall be pur-

At present County Clerk Fl. W..

tions In excess of Sal, 100000.

SCRAP OVER THE LIGHT.
Hope and Harrington Don't Agree on
Use Of Juice.

Herington, Oct. 20,-All is not
lovely In the furnishing of electric
ity from the city plant here to Hope
The Times says: Hope must live
up to the contract. This was the
decision reached by the city council
Monday night. At q previous meet
ing, It developed that Hopes cleo
tricity bill was astonishingly low.
Herington has been furnishing the
juice for several months and the
local officials had chance to see
how the proposition was paying. 1t
developed that the leakage Of juice
between Herington and Hope was
about IS per cent. This Of course
is too much. The contract states
that whenever the leakage 10 more
than IL per cent, transformers are
to be installed. This, Hope has not
done. Again, the bills were to be
paid each month promptly. A cheek
for a months service sent in several
months ago, was lost at the office
here and Superintendent Jones took
the matter up with the superintend-
emit at Hope. The latter said he
would send another check but so far
has not done It. The bills for an
other month or two have not been
paid"
