METER SYSTEM
CAUSES FURORE
HIGHLAND PARK PEOPLE FIND
THAT RATES LOOK VERY
HIGH,

Highland Park was much disturbed
this month when the newly inaugur-
ated water meter system resulted In
an unusually high rate on the citizens
OF the town. So great was the kick
on the new system that the City Coun-
ell met Monday night and In order to
give the meters q better opportunity
to behave themselves decided to settle
all bills for November at q nat rate
OF 81.
Mr.. A. G. Quarles 10 the chairman
Of the water committee of the Coun-
Gil, and to this committee the matter
was referred. An investigation shows
that the high amounts registered were
due to leakage owing TO the plumbing
in the installation Of new plant. the
plant. not having had q full test, and
to the fact that people have carelessly
allowed the water to run az when
there was no meter system. This has
cost many OF them dearly. 1t IL be-
lieved that after this date those who
are careful will have lower water
bills than before the meters were in
stalled. and that there will be less
water wasted at the expense. Such
kicks always follow Q newly installed
meter system where the people have
not had such.

A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

Various sections of North Dako-
Ca report invasions by hobos. These
tramps establish camps near towns
and prey upon the chicken roosts and
Kitchens OF the housewives. What to
do with these Migrants has long been
q serious problem. 1t is time for the
state to make a serious effort to set
tie 1t permanently.
Instead Of driving them from
town TO town as is now being done
the suggestion is made that the state
establish a state farm for hobos as is
done in some parts Of the east The
farm could be located on state land
Here the real hobo would be compelled
to work and help supply food for pub
tic institutions--besides providing fol
his own needs.
The man who is seeking work
deserves announcement. The va
grant who win not do honest work
but roams from state to state--is a
menace to the country. He should BIZ
compelled to labor or get out OF tht
country.

plating In the forward section Of the
hull are also worse twisted and shat
tered than those aft--which confirms
the theory that the explosion beneath
the forward portion OF the warship
worked its destruction.
Although the engineers have re-
moved all the water within the Golfer
dam excepting a few feet. a sea Of
mud now confronts them. It's removal
will be more difficult In some places
the mud is known to be about thirty
seven feet deep while it Is probably
deeper in other parts Of the enclosure.
The task of removing this is so stu
pendous that 1t will be some time be-
fore the entire hull Of the warship
can be exposed.
However, the disclosures already
made concerning the condition of the
wreck have satisfied the public mind
as to the cause OF the disaster which
FASTENED the Spanish war. The con-
tention that the American warship
was destroyed by an interior explo-
sion has been set at rest.

WILEY AND NEWSPAPERS.

The following from The Duluth
Herald is especially apropos at this
time, in view of the fight made against
DR.. Wiley, and the criticisms Of the
press of the country by uniformed
or biased persons:
Some folks who are not contented 70
let the newspapers do all the CRITICS.
ing are fond of charging that news
papers let their advertisers dictate
their policies, and that they allow the
desire for advertising patronage to
color their OPINIONS.
We hope everybody who feels that
way about 1T has followed carefully
the case Of DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, the
chief of the bureau of chemistry
whom crooked food manufacturers are
trying to get discharged on a techni-
cality.
Food manufacturers are advertisers
big ones. DR.. Wiley isn't nor are
the people in whose interests he is
working for honest food products.
Yet when the attack opened on DR..
Wiley the newspapers of the country
sprang with practical unanimlty, and
a good deal more vim than was COM
Portable to Wiley's enemies, to his res
cue. They have not minced words in
condemning the stealthy attack upon
him.
You see the newspapers had had no
tice of what was coming.
Not long ago every newspaper in
the country, so far as we know, re-
ceived a circular from the "Adver-
tisers' Protective association" asking
1t to join in the fight to get Wiley out
Of office. 1t was stated that the as
ISOLATION was made up of concerns
that have $4OO,O0O,O0O invested in the
manufacture of food and drugs, and
that spend $1OO,OOO,00O year in adj
vertising
Here was a covert promise and a
half-concealed threat. Fight Wiley,
and you get our advertising. Refuse,
and you don't The Advertisers Pro-
tectiye association didn't say that, but
it might as we'll. 1t certainly implied
il.
Yet no newspaper Joined in the
fight against Wiley, and no newspaper
of any consequence has failed to ioin
in the fight against his enemies.

GRANDMOTHER
USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN THE HAIR AND RE-
STORE GRAY AND FADED HAIR
TO ITS NATURAL COLOR.

1t is easier to preserve the color Of
the hair than to restore it, although 1t
is possible to do both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made a sage tea" and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have
gray hairs before they are fifty, but
they are beginning to appreciate the
vision of our grandmothers in using
sage tea" for their hair and are fast
following suit.
The present generation has the adj
vantage of the past in that it can get
a ready-to-use preparation called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair REM
edy. AS a scalp tonic and color re-
storer this preparation is vastly SUI
perior to the ordinary sage tea" made
by our grandmothers.
This remedy is sold under guarantee
that the money viii be refunded if it
fails to do exactly as represented.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all drug
gists. Special agents, Fout & Por-
terfeld, 81 Broadway.
