Did We Make a Mistake?

A bunch of transient clothiers wi O
have been in this vicinity for some time
are arranging for four day sale in
the Armory.
The Plain Dealer and the Times both
failed to find room for the transients
advertising, it always having been the
rule of:the Plain Dealer to decline the
advertising of such outfits, whether in
Cresco or adjoining towns, on the
ground of protecting both our home
merchants and our readers who might
patronize such concerns, for no man
can undersell our local dealers and
give honest values.
But what did some of our boosters
and city officials do? AS the ones most
responsible for so doing are interested
in the armory, it was rented to the
transients for four days for $50, and a
city license was granted at $lOO, both
of which were willingly paid. We sin
cerely trust that it is money thrown
away, and that our people will spend
their money Wlch men who will be here
longer than four days to stand back of
the goods they sell. The right thing
to do was to refuse to rent the armory
and refuse to grant license. Our
home merchants are entitled to that
much consideration.
Perhaps it is we who are in error.
Did we not make a mistake in refusing
the money which our city officials were
so quick to grab to the detriment of
our citizens.
Is it fair that the armory association
and the city should get their money
and the newspapers that are expected
to boost constantly and consistently
for the town and its business prosperi-
ty should be expected to turn down the
good money Of the transients?

MEN FOR TURK ARMY

Cleveland, Ohio.-Uncle Sam open
ed a recruiting station here, calling
for volunteers to join the Turkish

Turks had succeeded in registering
their names the police reserves were
called out to preserve order in the
heart of the city, and they discover
ed it was only an advertising stunt
for play called Uncle Sam" in
which Thomas A. Wise and John Bar
rymOre are appearing.
A vacant store next to the Euclid
Avenue opera-house was rented by
the company's manager, two real
Turks in uniform were engaged to
shoulder muskets and walk I'D and
down the street and a big painted
banner announced Uncle Sans re-
cruiting station for the Turkish army"
Turkish and American flags were
flung to the breeze. The word was
passed to the Turkish colony, and
nearly 100 rushed to enlist \ crowd
of Italian gamOns and peanut mer-
chants gathered in front of the re-
cruiting station to jeer and hiss. When
the police called to investigate, Will
liam A. Page, the manager of Uncle
Sam" was notified that it was against
the federal Constitution to enlist re-
cruits for a foreign army. SO the Of
flee was closed.
The affair created much excitement
in the heart of the city. but it proved
a big lad" for Uncle Sam

CASCARETS INSURE
INSIDE CLEANLINESS
The Millions Of Cascarct Users Never
Have Headache, Constellation, Bill
iOusneSS or Sick Stomach

1t is more necessary that you keep
your bowels, liver and stomach clean,
pure and fresh than it is to keep the
sewers and drainage of a large city
free from obstruction.
Are you keeping clean inside with
Cascarets-or merely forcing a pas
sageway every few days with salts,
cathartic pills or castor oil? This is
important.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse and
regulate the stomach, remove the
sour, undigested and fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess bile
from the liver and carry out of the
system the decomposed waste mat
ter and poison in the intestlnes and
bowels.
No odds how badly and upset you
feel, a Cascaret tonight will straight
en- you out by morning. They work
while you sleep. 10-cent box from
your druggist will keep your entire
family feeling good for months Don't
forget the children-their little in
sides need a good, gentle cleansing,
too.

KLAMATH COUNTY
COURT IN MIDDLE

The following dispatch from Klam-
ath FALL. ore. viii be of interest
I 10 local people a former well known
resident Of this city playing a part
I in 1t:
Dell V. Kuykendall. district at,or-
ney has returned 10 klamath Falls
after a two months absence, during
which the circuit court court con-
vened and the grand jury was called.
District Attorney Kuykendall was not
on hand and his deputy. Charles Fer
{ guson. formerly Of Pendleton. or re-
signed accordingly. Because of this
situation criminal cases were not con-
( sidered
/ Ferguson filed a reappointment Oc-
tober which was dated Septem Der
II by Kuykendall; he was appointed
. last June and there has been criti-
cism heard that Ferguson was afraid
to tackle the docket in the absence
Of his chief
So full of prisoners was the county
Jail when the jury convened that one
alleged murderer was outside the bas-
tile under special guard at a cost to
the county of $3.50 a month. After
AlAt - anu Jul i4atl btt-ll us missed q
month, room was provided in the jail
by the fortunate escape of five prls-
oners. among whom was ]. B. Thor
net. nurse Of DR.. J. Grant Lyman.
Had the docket been proceeded
with properly, assert county Officers
these men whould have had their
cases disposed OF in regular order. If
guilty, they would not now be at
large
The contention Of Mr.. KuykendaU
is that there are but two terms Of
court-June and December-and
that while he was aware a jury would
be summoned in September. he was
informed no criminal cases would be
heard until December. Taxpayers
say the grand jury is called only for
criminal cases and qury why, there
fore, it was summoned.
In open court Attorney O'Neill
charged that several members Of the
grand jury stayed away because they
were instructed not to appear.
There has been some talk Of a re-
call for Kuykendall. who has one year
Of four-year term yet to serve. Kuy-
kendall is paid $4,000 a year.
