You WIN Know What You Get.


Utica IN. Y.) Press, October 7th:
While several states are agitating the
pure food question, Louisiana is the
first to pass a pure shoe law. The
bill is intended to protect the people
against unscrupulous manufacturers
of footgear who substitute other ma
terials for leather. The law obliges
the manufacturer to state if substi-
stute has been used. If the manufact-
urer uses counter, heel, or any part
OF the sole made of leatherboard,
strawboard or other substitute, that
fact must be stamped with metal
die in plain view. After this when a
person in Louisiana buys pair OF
shoes he will know what he is paying
for. If he wants to buy a shoe with
paper sole, that is his privilege, but
he will not pay leather prices for
paper-wearing qualities.

THE YEARS.

Z stE EftFl0s
Sunrise. and noon, and sunset,
And day slips into day:
Twilight, and dark, and daylight
A year has rolled away.
Budding, and bloom, and fading,
Green tree, and leafless bough;
Seeding, and growth, and harvest
So dies an old year now.
Singing, and, signs, and silence,
The frownings and the smiles,
Toiling, and stress, and resting,
And grave or gayer whiles;
Days that have brought their honors,
And days that left their scars
Over 1t all the marvel
OF each night with its stars.
Dreamings, and hopes, and plannings,
Tasks that begin and end;
Hours that have brought the silence
Alike to foe and friend.
Words that were sad or merry,
Draughts that were bittersweet:;
Greeting. and hail. and parting
The old and new year meet.
Sunrise, and noon, and sunset,
Day will slip into day;
Twilight, and dark, and daylight,
The year will roll away;
Sunshine, and song, and gladness,
Fair dreams that come in sleep,
sBirdsong. AID nodding blossoms
These are we fam to keep.
Darkness, and light. and shadows,
Sorrow and golden cheer,
Blend into Gods completeness,
Into the finished year,
Into a lnemory-fabric
Woven OF shade and shine
These are the years unfolding
In lives like yours and mine

COUNTY BOARD RESOLUTIONS
GIVE HEARST BLACK EYE
Hearst got another black eye in
Chicago yesterday when the County
Board passed resolutions commend
ing President Wilson's peace policy
as to Mexico and condemned the

are being made upon him by William
Randolph Hearst and his news

Progressives besides Mccormick
himself.
Those who voted to commend the
president and denounce Hearst were:
Anderson, Board, Gard and Mitchell,
Progressives; Kufewsh, Nowak, Ra-
gan, Fitzgerald, Harris and Mortar
ity, Democrats; Mccormick, Repub-
ican
Those who voted no we're Bartzen,
Democrat, and Coonley, Progressive.
Naloney, Democrat, didn't vote.
The resolutions follow:
Whereas, The present situation in
Mexico is due to the efforts of
usurper, who secured control of the
office of president of the republic
through murder, to continue in Office
in violation of the constitution; and,
whereas, President Wilson wisely
refuses to give official recognition to
the illegal occupant of the office or
to commit this country to the. virtual
overthrow of constitutional govern
ment in our sister republic; and,
Whereas, In the very trying and
delicate situation which has arisen
President Wilson has distinguished
himself by his broad and far-sighted
craftsmanship and his wisdom and
patience, and has commended him
self and his pacific policies to the
people of the United States; and,

POINDEXTER OPPOSED !
TOPITTMAN PLAN
Difference Of Opinion Over the Best
Method to Control Alaska
Coal Fields.

Senator Poindexter of Washington Pro-
gressive, takes definite issue with Sen
ator Pittman Of Nevada, Democrat, and
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Territories, as to the best methods OF
exercising government control of the
Alaska coal fields and mineral deposits
Senator Poindexter believes in straight
out government ownership. He Is op-
posed to Senator Pittman's plan as re-
fiected in the latter's bill by which there
should be an allotment in alternate
strips to private interests and TO the
government. Senator Poindexter will re-
introduce his bill that slumbered through
the last session. which provides for gov
eminent control and perpetual ownership
to the title of all these lands.
Senator Poindexter insists that the
Federal government should itself mine
enough coal in Alaska to supply, not only
the Pacific Coast naval and coaling sta
tions, but also enough to sell in the
open market to control the price of the
commodity and save the people Of the
Coast from extortion by the coal in
terests.
Next week the committee will take W
the consideration of Senator Pittman' S
half-and half control plan. The chair.
man is inclined to believe that his meas
ure will then receive favorable consid-
