Pm. ALLISON
PORTER M. ALLISON.

Porter M. Allison, Democratic nom.
inee for reelection to the office OF
County Superintendent of Public
Schools of Bates county has behind
him record for competency, indus
try and achievement which is rarely
surpassed or even equaled by either
public or private official.
During the past two years of his
incumbency as County Superintend-
ent of Public Schools Mr.. Allison has
conscientiously devoted his entire
time and attention to the duties of his
office with the result of almost I'M
believable improvement in our schools
and a present standard of work there
in which compares to the advantage
of Bates county with the schools of
other counties in the state.

His work and records have been
highly commended by the State Sup.
erintendent Of Education, and hia
methods have been adopted u the
most practical by many educators. ~
He is thoroughly familiar with
every provision and requirement 81
the school laws of the state. His two
years work as County Superintendent
have prepared him for initiating i'm
portant improvements in the work

Fin the court house yard, and in pri-
vate yards.
This kind Of work has been going
on. for some weeks and it is about
time tie authorities took q hand in
the affair. Consistently, it seems
that the only thought Of the dog
poisoner is the suffering and death
which he may inflict upon friendless
CANNES, and il is not to be expected
that he would give q thought to the
danger to which in his nefarious
work he is subjecting little children.
A man who promiscuously poisons
dumb brutes IS greatly lacking many
Of the finer traits of human nature
which 60 to make desirable citizen,
and he who adds to this by distribut-
ing his poison in such manner that at
any time child may meet a horrible
death is indeed a menace to the COM
and should be dealt with as
severly as any ether who takes the
law into his own hands without re-
gard to the safety or rights Of others.
We have officials who are fully en-
powered, and whose duty it is to i'm

and not as a stepping stone to Other
means of livelihood, has put into his
work his whole mind and heart, and
in the past two years has in many in.
stances accomplished more for Bates
County Schools than was done in the
five proceeding years.
Eighteen to twenty hours per day
has Mr.. Allison labored in order that
he might constantly keep in touch
with the schools Of the county through
his visits, which he made with sys-
tematic regularity, which was not
broken by even the severest and most
inclement weather. During Prof.
Allison's administration, schools were
visited more frequently than in the
five years proceeding.
Superintendent Allison has secured
more lectures and addresses by prom
inent men and educators for the
teachers and pupils of Bates county;
has held more Teachers and Patrons
meetings.; has done more reading
circle work; and has had more teach
ers in the Summer schools than was
ever done before.
His "Bates County Schools and
Teachers, which consists of a column
n the county papers each week is a
weekly report to the taxpayers and
school patrons of Bates county, and

LOADED AND FUNNY, TOO.

The learned and aged editor of the
Republican-Press devotes nearly a
column of his valuable space this
week toward informing his readers
that the editor of The Times has been
getting funny" and in order to prove
his point, he mentions such relevant
matters as; Missouri having Repub-
lican Governor; the recent Democratic
city convention; takes shot at
at D. C. Chastain and a very dirty.

know, and we doubt very much if

Old Sponge, Well
Soaked With Oil,
Solves Mystery

Several prominent members OF the Uni
Versity club are SnickerinG over a dis
covcry they made Sunday afternoon In
the oil excitement zone in the north
western part OF the city limits. The field
has beer eXperted by numerous engi-
neers and citizens during the past week.
and The conclusion was drawn. and Justly
so. that the oil floating on the top OF
the water came from a nearby oil stor-
age tank.
But 1t remained for the Sunday crowd
to make the banner discovery OF all.
which no previous visitor had found.
This was an old sponge. well soaked I'm

position of vantage at the bottom of the
stream. gave forth taptaliZng inGica-

ing from unknown depths. The un-
restrained mirth of some railroaders who
work in that vicinity was considered
sufficient proof OF the mystery OF the
sponge.
The several days excitement was pro-
ductive OF several things. IL afforded a
great many men several nights OF pleas
ant dreams based on their oil land loca-
tions. II broke the otherwise monotonous
trend Of the railroad employees life

OF citizens of Salt Lake TO a part OF the

incentive as the probable existence OF oil

Chief Forester Henry 5. Graves
Says Most of This Will BE
Spent in West.
F9RESTERS TO DISCUSS
PREVENTION OF FIRES
Will Do Everything Possible to
Aid Grazers, Adds Mr..
Graves.

Five million dollars is being spent TINS
year by II. $. Graves, chief forester oi
the United States, and twelve district
roresters and others OF the forest service,
according to Information given out Mon
day afternoon by Mr.. Graves at the con-
clusion Of the first of six meetings to be
held here in the week.
MIR Graves says there is no great Sc
ere, about what is being done at the
meeting, but as II is purely business con
uected with the government and tnc
workings OF the forest service Tor inc
year, the public is not invited 10 attend.
MIR. Graves says that congress appro-
est service In the conservation oil the
timber resources OF The country. and that
the meeting will decide just how this
can be spent To bring tho pest results
Most in West.
Mr.. Graves says that the most Of this
In the west that the conditions appar-
entity are the most serious and the for
ests the most numerous.
The appropriations were made with
the intention Of bringing 10 an end forest

says Mr.. Graves. Our forest supervis,
ors or district foresters have some good
ideas on just what TO DO TO bring these
conditions about, and that is the occa-
sion for the meeting. / came here from
men who are on the ground and know
what is best 10 do.
We will also discuss the matter OF
the protection OF national forests In
other ways. The sheep proposition. for
instance, Will possibly be discussed. !
understand there Is considerable trouble
on some OF the forests. AS what Will
be done in these matters I cannot say
until / go into these matters.
To Protect Grazing.
Il can say, however. that settlements
Will be made in favor OF forest protec-
ton. Some people say that sheep graz
ing or forests is q good thing because
the sheep eat away the grass and weeds
and lessen the danger Of fire. Perhaps
that is SO. We do not intend 10 do any
thing TO hurt the sheep industry if we
can help H. and we have not done any
thing willfully in The past.
"Some OF the means under considera
ton of protecting forests from fires are
fire patrols. bare areas to stop the fires.
forest telephones and the like. all of
which promise to add 20 the forest pro-
lection"
The meetings will he held every day
this week In the petit jury room In the
federal building. After tho meeting here
Mr.. Graves will go 10 California 10 visit
several OF the national forests there.
