THE LAWYERS GRAB BAG.

The city of West Hammond has
been the lawyers grab bag. On the.
pretext OF rendering certain service
enormous fees have been paid out
by the old administration. The.
lawyers cost West Hammond over
$4,000 last year There are score
|of lawyers who would have been
glad to do this work for an annual
salary of $4,000.
Because the conditions which pre-
walled before the new administration
took office have bearing on the
present situation, the following may
be cited as some of the abuses that
were perpetrated by the old admins
ltration:
Paid to Samuel X. Markham
to go to Springfield in the
interests of the old board
of trustees TO knock out
the enabling act which
would make West Ham a
mond city ..... 81. 10000
Paid to Markham subse-
quently 10000
Agreed to pay Atwood,
Pease & Louks for serv-
ices in the interests of the
| board and against the peo-
pie in the mandamus suit
TO compel the old board
| TO hold a special election. 1,560l5
| Paid Joseph Belinski his an
| nua1 salary ..-....... 900. 90
| Paid Joseph Belinski an
| illegal additional fee to re-
verse the city ordinances. 10000
Iotdi S5,OlO-l5
/ Some of the board members were
anxious and willing that Joseph
Belinski should be appointed to the
office of corporation counsel in the
very face of the fact that he de-
manded $3.50. In addition 10 his
salary for work that he should have
done to earn that salary
/ Now the people of West Ham
mond are squarely up against the
proposition of further extravagances
in the way of attorneys fees. The
people of West Hammond have elect
led city attorney who ought to be
able to handle every bit of legal
work that could possibly originate IN
West Hammond.
There is absolutely no necessity
for appointing a corporation counsel
lat this time. Such an appointment
lcould be only interpreted by the peo-
lple of West Hammond as an ex-
ltravagant expenditure of money in
la city that Is now bankrupt.
& City Attorney Katz seems to have
incurred the displeasure of the new
,city administration for while Joseph
Belinski, the acting city attorney
lreceived $500 a year for his services
Katz was cut down to $500. He was
Ialso compelled to give bond fol
$4,000.
Katz declares that he is willing II
do all of the legal work of the cit!
for his present salary, although h,
thinks he ought to have more. Blu
| with this opportunity to have it
legal work done for a very small
figure, the city ordinances provid,
for the employment of corporation
: counsel who is to be paid REASON
ABLE FEE for his work.
1t appears to the average observe
that it is about time that Mayo
Woczszinski and City Attorney Kat
got together and made some arrange
ment by which the city of Yves
Hammond could be saved from sue
lavish expenditures for attorney
fees. Atwood claims he got only

A SAFE SCALP TONIC.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Makes the
 Gray Hair Vanish.

Who does not know the value of Sage and Sulphur for keeping the hair dark, soft and glossy and in good condition {? As a matter of fact, Sulphur is a natural element of hair and deficiency of it in the hair is held by many scalp specialists to be connected with loss of color and vitality of the hair. Un- questionably, there is no better remedy for hair and scalp troubles, especially premature grayness, than Sage and Sulphur. if properly prepared.
 The Wyeth Chemical Company of New York put out an ideal preparation of this kind, called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur are combined with other valuable remedies for keeping the hair and scalp in clean, healthy condition.
 If your hair is losing it's color or constantly coming out, or if you are troubled with dandruff, or dry, itchy scalp, get fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your druggist. use it according to the simple direc- tions, and see what a difference a few days treatment will make in the ap- peArance of your hair.
 All druggists sell it, under guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is not exactly as represented Agent Lee & Osgood.
