The Food

Uncle Sam Food Is composed of Wheat,
Fiaz and other grains. The Flax is first
treated and cooked by a patented process
there is no taste of oil. These grains
are accurately blended and scientifically
cooked. The food is ready. Only the
addition of milk or cream isrequired.
Many families find the food sufficiently
rich when served with milk alone Thus
the saving of cream more than pays for
TIE food.
Put up IN full 24-ounce sealed pack
ages, larger and much heavier, because
Of greater nutriment, than the usual cereal
food package.
For sale at all grocers, price Csc a
package. Or will be sent by mail, pre-
paid, from the factory at Omaha. If your
grocer cannot supply you. send Csc for
sample package to Uncle Sam Food Co,
Omaha, Neb. Your money will be re-
funded if you are not entirely satisfied.

Republican Papers For Cooke

record during the two years he has
acted as 4 member Of this body.
He is very popular in his district,
which is normally republican, and
the circumstance that he is one OF
only two democrats in the court of
seven at the present time, will
give him a distinct advantage in
the election, as il is generally held
that the court, while it can never
be equally non-psrtisar, should
never be wholly democratic or
wholly republican.

Judge Cooke has made record
during his service on the bench
which proves him capable, fair and
honorable. He has served with
credit TO himself and his high Of
flee, and his opinions have not only
been good law but good sense.
There is a we'll established prece-
dent in illincis-a precedent thus
far happily uSdisturbed by parti-
sanship-to eoItinue on the bench
those members Of the high court
who have given satisfactory ser

The Heralo-Transcript, placing
the eapsbility and integrity Of the
judiciary above politics, believes
that this precedent should hold
good In the case Of Judge George

Quincy Whig.)

We agree with number of other
republican editors in what they
say with reference TO keeping the
Illinois supreme court judgeship
out of politics. Our judges should
not be politicians but should be
elected by the people because Of
their ability. So far as we can
learn Justice George A. Cooke has
been just judge, and we can see
no valid reason why there should
be a fight on him simply because
he happens TO vote the democratic
ticket.

Careful study of the planet Jupiter
has afforded some rather interesting
figures concerning IT'S rate. or rather

the round numbers in which the equa-

Campaign Notes

Certain republican editors are pro-
testing against the democratic cam
paign document which discloses the
fact that the election of judge Robert
J. Grier 70 the supreme bench would
cost the tax payers of his own circuit
$4,000. Do they want to suppress the
facts?
Why should Judge Grier be displeas-
ed with the statement that he is hold
ing on to one job while seeking anoth-
CT? In 1909. June "a, he declined to
run for the supreme court and explain
ed that he did not want TO put the tax
| payers of the counties in his circuit
| to heavy expense for a special cleo
ton. There is a special primary now
and the expense would be just double
! If il is an outrage" to accuse Judge
Robert J. Grier Of hanging on to one
/ job while he seeks another, isn't it
| more Of an outrage on his tax paying
| friends TO ask. them TO bear the finan-
cial burden of electing him TO the
supreme court

| campaign merely on the question of
the legal ability and fitness of the

RUNAWAY COUPLE
TO Be DEPORTED
j. 3. sNEAD LOCATES WIFE AND
A. G. BoYcE IN CANADA, AND
WILL COMPEL THEIR RETURN

Winnipeg, Man, Jan. 2.-The story
of how j. b. Snead, millionaire BANK
er of Amarillo, Texas, after tracking
his wife thousand miles, spending
$4,000 in search of her, overcame all
obstacles in international diplomacy,
was revealed today when announce
ment that his wife and Albert G.
Boyce of Seattle, scion of a cattle
king of the Southwest, would be de-
por,ed from Canada this afternoon as
undesirable persons.
According to Boyce, the charge Of
grand larceny is one trumped up to
extradite him and he claims it never
can be proved.
The Texas authorities, it is said,
contend that Boyce persuaded the
woman to give him her jewelry, valued
at $4,000. The whereabouts of the
gems is the greatest mystery in the
case. The woman had the jewelry
when she left Texas. Both prisoners
refused to state what became Of
them,
boyce says that after he had been
indicted by the grand jury in Texas
on the charge of abduction and grand
larceny, the greatest political pres
sure was brought to bear on the Texas
authorities to bring about his return
to that state.
Counsel for the defense, acting upon
allegations made by the authorities
that the woman was mentally weak,
had her examine< by two noUed Cana
dian alienists, both of whom declared
her sane.
Final action in the case will be op-
ened in Minneapolis Wednesday, when
the wife will be confronted with her
two children, her mother and her sis
ter.
Yesterday the huband held an in
terview with Mrs. snead, but It Is
said she declared she would return
with him. He at once notified her rel
atives. They brought her children,
who will also plead with their mother
to return.

NOR" Colonel Theodore Roosevelt de-
clined today to discuss report that
a movement was afoot in New Jersey
to place his name on the presiden-
tial primary ballots. The former pl es-
ident was asked if he had been ap-
preached by anyone of consequence or
authority in New Jersey politics with
a view to having his name placed on
the ballots.
That necessarily involves a dehni-
tion of the phrase anyone of con-
sequence or authority. he replied. Il

BOAT GOES DOWN EARLY IN THE
MORNING FROM SOME UN.
KNOWN CAUSE. Fl
Watchnnan Discovered that the Dredge
Was Sinking After She Had Filled
With Water and Crew Had a Close
Call in Escaping.

From some cause yet unknown,
dredge No. of the Sanford P. Ross
Dredging company, was sunk early
yesterday morning at the end of the
Brunswick jetties, opposite the A., B.
& A. terminals, one man being
drowned and the entire crew narrow
ly escaping with their lives.
1t was shortly before daylight that
the watchman observed that che
dredge was rapidly filling with water
and was sinking. AS hurriedly as
possible he notified the members OF
the crew, all of whom were fast asleep
and, with the exception of one un-
fortunate deck hand, they all escaped
by the means of small boat which
was attached to the dredge. The name
Of the man still missing could not be
ascertained, as it seems that none of
those on The dredge knew him He
was a young white man who Joined
the crew as a deck hand only a short
time ago
Just what caused the sinking of the
dredge is not known, although an in
vestigation has already been made.
The watchman was greatly surprised
When he realized that the boat was
rapidly filling with water and, in
few minutes, would go down. When
he .1rst discovered 1t the dredge was
only a few feet out of the water, and
hardly had the crew escaped before
the craft entirely filed and went to
the bottom, leaving only the smokes
stack and the masts above the sur
face of the water.
The Ross company in Savannah was
at once notified and c. G. Ely, the
manager OF the Savannah Office, ar
rived in the city yesterday afternoon
and will at once make arrangements
for raising the boat. 1t is believed
that this can be successfully done, tho
no doubt the dredge Will be consid-
erably damaged.
Dredge No. 7 has been at work in
the local harbor for some time, under
contract secured several months
ago by the Ross company She was
thought to be in good condition, there
fore the sinking is all the more puz-
zling to those aboard as well as the
owners. The only way to account Tor
the accident is the snpposition that
the boat sprung a leak in some way
during the night and filled with water.
Two or three OF the members Of the
crew had very narrow. call in es-
Gaping from the sinking boat and for
time it looked as if the entire crew
would have to 60 down or swim
ashore
The work Of raising the sunken
boat will begin at once, and it is be-
lieved that within a few days she will
be successfully raised and after the
necessary repairs will be able to re-
sumo work in the harbor.
