CoIdest of Winter

Last night was perhaps the coldest of the present winter. The thermometer dropped to 10 degrees above zero and everything this morning was frozen hard as a bone. It is still cold today, and the extent of the damage done cannot be as- certaned, but it is safe to say that the plumbers will have a harvest as soon as things thaw out. The ground is still somewhat covered with sleet and snow and everything has real wnterish ap- pearance.

A. p Agee, pres takes Captain Agee, Mayor. Wikle and members of the council to task for their failure to properly punish Alderman Bur gess. who is said to have accepted money from blind tigers under promise of exemp- ton from prosecution on the part of the city. Z H'
 Mir. Rudisill says that the books of the city treasurer show no record of the money that is said to have been collected by Alderman Burgess having been paid to the city and he thinks this smacks of a very glaring irregularity. Alderman Burgess was reprimanded by the coun- ell at their last regular meeting, but MT. Rudisill thinks a more drastic act should have been resorted to by the city rulers.
 Commenting on the alleged act of MT. Burgess after the meeting of the council at which he was reprimanded, Mayor Wikle said that he thought MT. Burgess acted in ignorance of the significance of his act and that he did not believe the alderman was guilty of wrongful inten- tion. Whether or not further steps will be taken is not known.

the Miserable Days
A ten cent box insures you against
a Sick Headache, Biliousness,
Constipation or a Bad J.
Stomach for a long time.

Primitive men did not need Cas-
carets. They lived outdoors, ate
plenty of fruit, and all of their food
was coarse. We modern people are
different. We exercise too little, eat
little fruit, and our food is too fine.
too rich.
We can't have the bowels clogged
up and keep we'll. 1t means that the
food retained there decays. The de-
cav creates poisons. And those poi
sons are sucked into the blood
through the very ducts intended to
suck in the nutriment. So we must
make our choice. We must live, to
an extent, like the primitive man.
else we must eat Cascarets.
Cascarets do what the right food
would do, what plenty of exercise
does The effect is as natural from
one as the other The question is
one of convenience. If you choose
Cascarets, take them as you take
food, not in large doses rarely. but .
tablet at a time. That is the way to
keep well. Get 10 cent bog now !.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 23.-Senator
Porter J. McCumber of North Dakota
member of the committee on for
eign relations, is not in favor OF the
majority report of that committee
which proposes to amend the arbl'
tration treaties pending in the SEN
ate. AS he did not join with the MI
nority members it has been assumed
that he was a part of the majority.
Il am with the president in regard
to these treaties, said Senator Nc
Cumber. II was not in Washington
when the committee made its report,
and that is why do not appear in the
record opposing the amendments sug-
gested.
Il think it is about time we began
to do a little something toward peace,
For my part l would much prefer
to have the people of Europe expena
their money in buying our produce
than in buying arms and building
ships. We do not furnish them sny
of the iron and steel which 60 into
their ships and military equipments.
we do not furnish any of the labor
that builds their ships and fortifi"a-
tions. l would much rather that they
should use their energies making what
we want to buy and their money in
buying what We produce. It would
be better for us and better for them.
The worlds commerce cannot be ad'
vanced by war but by peace. Let the
money and the energy of people now
wasted in wars and preparations for
war be turned into channels of COM
merce and trade and the whole world
will be better for it.
Nov, for years we have been put
ting everything possible into the
hands of commissions, delegating ons
duty after another to different COM
missions, and yet, when it comes to
a movement which has for it's purpose
ators fear that the prerogatives of the
senate may be impugned by reason Of
treaty which refers to a commits
sion. the determination of what is a
justifiable cause. l do not see it that
way, nor do l believe in any of the
dire predictions made by those who
are seeking excuses for opposing and
defeating the arbitration treaties.
1T is time we considered this mat.
ter in sensible way, and accept a
measure which means a step in the d.
rection of world peace. There are
many ways in which the money ex-
pended for war purposes in this conn
try could be used to a better aG
vantage for the whole people. 1t is
more important that this country
should take the lead and maintain it
in the great movement for the peace
full settlement Of all international
disputes"
