, from the south and has since besn
working on a number of clues in am
effort to locate the missing valuab' 'es.
Just before he left for Jacksonville
he received a new tip, which he
proposed to follow mp in the hope
that it might lead to some trace of
the jeweiry.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell le /
heir home at Isswich a number of
pieces of valuable jewelry were
phced in bag, the bag was placed
in a bag. the bag was placed il a
small box, and the box was locked im
one of the trunks The trunks were
placed on board train at the South

Mr.. Campbell had no sight OF the
baggage. When the trunks were
opened in Havana the jewelry was
missing. The trunks were Looked
and strapped Just as they were when
they left Boston, but the bag OF jew
elry was gone.
! The loss was reported to the
authorities in Havana and Mr.
Campbell even made trip back to
Cuba after his arrival in Day. oaa
but was never able to get any trace
OF the vahab3es. 1t is possible the

The other day we were ac-
cused of supporting Frank A.
Wilson for national committee
man solely because he, is a
newspaper publisher. This is
not so. Ben Whitehead is also
a newspaper man and a candi-
date for the same place. A
vote for Whitehead would be a
serious mistake. A vote for
Wilson would not be a mis-
take. Personally we esteem
both men; politically there is
no difficulty in making a
choice. We are for Wilson be-
cause he is a progressive demo
crat who has given long and
