attorneys opinion had removed the
doubt in his mind and he was ready
to settle with the county
Other good lawyers and personal
friends had given him the same kind
of advice. But he wanted lawyers Lt
advise him the way he wanted to be
advised, and the next thing was a suit
in the district court to enjoin the con-
tinuance of the audit by the county
and for an accounting. BY this action
Mr.. Thomas began legal resistance of
the audit. But on or about the 10th
of September the supreme court made
an order, in a mandamus suit brought
by the county attorney, for Mr.. Thorn
as to turn over to the auditors all pa
pers, documents and books of every kind
in his office pertaining to office business
for the purpose of the audit. Then Mr.
Thomas dismissed his suit, which was
brought to throw dust and nothing
else.
"5. We know that Mr.. Thomas has
willfuIly overcharged HtigantS in court
costs. We know that in one case, he
paid back $12.10 which was a plain case
of 'gouge.' and when confronted with
the proposition he could absolutely
make no explanation for it,
''6. 1t may be true as he says that he
was following an established CUSTOM.
What excuse is that for continuance
of such dishonest practices? If one
bank cashier is accused of embezzle-
ment would Mr.. Thomas argue that his
successor should likewise embezzIe
trust funds, and then escape punish
ment on the grounds that the first man
got off, and therefore the second man
ought to get Off?
a. Mr.. Thomas says he has not time
nor money to fight an expensive custer
suit, but he seems to have plenty OF
money, time and physical strength to re-
siSt suit to recover the $21,O00 and over
which he owes to Shawnee county. Mr..
Thomas says he wants to be indicated.
Well it seems to US the best way to get
the vindication he is after was to remain
in office and resist the charges made in
the custer suit filed in the supreme court.
If his character is at stake he could well
afford to spend his last dollar in that
sort of vindication.

CAMPAIGN OF HOPE

What is regarded by the National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of Tuberculosis as the most
advanced legislation against tuber-
culOsis that has been enacted by any
state, if not in any country, is found
I in bill recently passed by the New
Jersey legislature and signed by Gov
crnor Wilson The new law provides
that tuberculosis patients who re-
fuse to obey the regulations laid
down by the state board of health,
concerning the prevention OF the
disease. and who thus become a men
ace to the health of those with whom
they associate, shall be compulsorily
segregated by order of the courts, in
institutions provided for the purpose.
If such patients refuse to obey the
rules and regulations of the institu-
tion in which they are placed, they
may BE isolated or separated from
other persons and restrained from
leaving the institution The law
further provides that all counties in
New Jersey shall within six months
from April 1 make provision in spe-
cia institutions for the care of all
persons in these counties having tu-
berculosis. The state treasury will
pay each county SO a week for each
person maintained in these institu-
tions except those who are able to
pay their own expenses.
The only other state, according to
the statement issued by the National
Tuberculosis Association, which pro-
vides for compulsory segregation of
dangerous cases of tuberculosis is
Maryland The only city in the Unit
ed States having a special ordinance
providing for compulsory removal of
dangerous cases is San Francisco. A
few other cities among them, New
York, exercise this power under GER
tain provisions of their sanitary code.
but no other city has any special or
dinance on the subject

INVOICE WEEK IS ON, CLERKS

Every merchant in Grand Junction
is running around with one of those

the fact that the dreaded season OF

ing the excellent work accomplished
by the Colorado University The
