MURRAY And

KRUGER ARE
NOW IN BAD

Two Republican supervisors, Harry
Murray and Frank Kruger are out
openly campaigning against some Of
the Republican nominees, and are in
cidentally using the municipal autonloS
bile on their tours, accordingeto re-
port which has reached Republican
leaders. The report has stirred up
bitter. resentment in party headquaf-
tiers and among, the leaders now out
working for, the ticket. .s.. -. S,
There have been stories going the
rounds for some slime that Murray
was exceedingly hostile to e. II. Paris,
candidate for supervisor, and it is,:a
matter of common knowledge that
Murray made all kinds, of vague
threats during the Republican county
convention as to what he and his
friends would do if Paris were nomi-
mated. There were also stories out
that. Murray and Kruger would lot
support Charley Arnold, presumably
because Arnold was the only superyi-
scr on the present board that the Re-
publicans felt like renominating on
past record,
On Monday reports reached Repub-
lican headquarters that Murray, Kru-
ger and Charley Clark, the well-known
politician, had taken the city's auto
mobile on a trip around the island
last Sunday and that they were, out
fighting Paris, Arnold and J. M. Dow

be directed toward electing Petrie and
to the board of supervisors,
and Coke to the senate instead of

"A number of Republicans made
pretty careful inquiries and found out
enough to convince them that the re-
ports were correct. Mr.. Kruger was
taxed with his part in the attempt
to get his own party candidates
knitted and is quoted as having re-
piled well, | didn't talk, anyway.
Murray and Clark did the talking"
At any rate, Murray and Kruger
are credited with doing their best to
beat the three men named and the
relations between the county; cam
paign committee and these two sup
ervisors are anything but cordial
Both have hitherto been regarded as
regular party men. Kruger, in fact,
is said to have confided to a friend
his intention of running for the
board two years from now.
McClellan's evident anxiety to play
in with the Republican members of
the board, particularly Murray during
the last few months, is believed to
have won him the support. of the
Murray combination. Mcclellan. dis
gusted many of the more Intelligent
citizens who had liked him before by
the obvious manner in which he play
ed politics with Murray on the board.

MEANING OF HALF MAST

Perhaps you have noticed that
whenever a prominent person dies, es-
pecially if he is connected with the
government. the flags on public build
ings are hoisted only part of the way
up. This is called "half-mast'. Did
you ever stop to think what connec-
ton there could be between a flag
that was not properly hoisted and the
death of a great man?
Ever since flags were used in war
it has been the custom to have the
flag of the superior or conquering ma
tiOn above that of the inferior or van
quished. When an army found itself
hopelessly beaten it hauled its flag
down far enough for the flag of the
victors to be placed above it on the
same pole. This was taken not only
