YOUNG CLOSES SEN. oLsoNS
MILK DEPOT-'TWAS DIRTY

{ Health Commissioner George B.
Young bucked up against politics
yesterday in his determination to
make Chicago as sanitary as it is
possible for a big city to become,
when he closed a milk depot owned
by State Senator A. ]. Olson at 41S3
Emerald avenue ~.
He did this on the grounds that it
not only had been running for two
months Illegally, but that it was posi-
lively dirty.
The humorous part of it is that
Olson is chairman of the legislative
committee on dairying and the pur-
pose of this committee is to enforce

sanitary conditions in the diaries of
Illinois.
Young, in ordering the place
closed, said that he went out and
found absolute filth. Horse blankets
lined the wall. Employees stuck their
fingers into the milk.
81 saw one man fish piece of dirt
out of the milk with his fingers said
DIR. Young.
The commissioner had all the milk
in the place turned into the sewer.
Olson, whose home is in Wood
stock, declared that he knew moth
ing Of the conditions in the place,
that it was merely a branch depot.
Olson was one of the men who OPP
posed the tuberculin test for COWS.

OWNING AN AUTOMOBILE.

A FEARSOME TRAGEDY.

That affair in. Greenville Sunday
morning is fearsome tragedy, but it
is no more than must be expected
when burglary is being committed.
Everyone sympathizes with the grief
tricken father Of the wayward son
who was shot to death. But his la
ment that he should have been noti-
fled of the suspicious against his son
is not reasonable. If he had been no.
titled he would probably have made
it warm for his informant; besides, a
mere suspicion is dangerous thing
to be Handing out" as has been de-
monstrated time and time again. The
party undertaking to give the infor-
nation would probably have been, for
all time, under the fire of the fathers
resentment as we'll as that of the son:
and there would have been many to
take up the cry of persecution. Nor
do we, as a matter of fact, from the
evidence brought out, blame the po-
licemen who fired the fatal shots.
When man breaks into a building
in the dead hours Of the night for
the purpose of robbery, it is natural
to suppose that he comes armed for
any emergency. When such an in
truder comes in with deadly weapon
drawn and goes ahead firing that
weapon, 1t Is no time for words.
Cool, sober thought is out of the
question. The officer must act and
must act at once. We st assured.
ly attach no blame TO the officers in
this case, If the testimony at the
ceroner,s inquest can be, relied upon.
The whole truth is: The lawless

THE MILITANT SUFFRAGISTS

The London women suffragists are
a mad lot of women. Their anar-
chistic behavior will retard rather
than help the cause of woman suff-
rage. The wanton destruction of
property, and the consequent utter
disregard for the law is a poor weap-
on in the hands of man or woman.
1t does but show the women engaging
in it to be unfit to exercise the fran
chise.
Mrs. Carrie Nation, the prohibitions
ist and window smasher, did the cause
of prohibition no real service. Her
zeal was not according to knowl-
edge; and the same may justly be
said of the militant, window-smash-
ing suffragettes.

are thousands of people who feel that
the influence of such advertisements
is not conducive to the best good.
The State goes into thousands of
homes and its influence is very great.
We feel sure many of its subscrib-
ers will be gratified to know that no
additional whiskey advertisements
will be contracted for by that paper.
For years The Times has been "on
the water wagon" having discontin-
ued whiskey advertisements under
the rule of Mr.. L. G. Young, more
than fifteen years ago. It has, for
all that time stood squarely against
such business. We have no cause to
regret that attitude towards the whis-
key traffic. We do not believe it helps
the people; we do not believe the
money that we might have made by
such advertisements would have real
ly enriched us.

HOOK WORM WAR.

The work being done in Union
county to eradicate the hookworm
disease is the direct outcome of one of
Mr.. Rockefeller's plans to help hu-
manity. 1t is but one of his many
philanthropic enterprises, but it
brings definitely to our attention the
vast good man can do when he has
the means and is possessed of a will
'ingness to help humanity. Among
the multitude of efforts put forth by
this great philanthropist to benefit
mankind, this work of hookworm
eradication will occupy no mean place.
1t is great work. It's results will
be far-reaching. 1t is going directly
to the root of the disease, and the re-
suits are definite and effective.
We do not understand that Mr..
Rockefeller desires to be heralded
as savior of humanity. There seems
to be a shrinking from publicity on
the part of this tremendously rich
man. What we write will never be
seen by him. We feel sure he would
lot care rap one way or another
about it, f., But we are writing with a
motive: We want every child in Un-
ion county to come to DIR. Riser for
examination. It is great opportu-
.ity. The examination is free; the
treatment is free; the examination is
by an expert. Seven hundred and
more children have, during the four
weeks of DR.. Riser's stay in Union,
been examined. We hope to see, dur
ing the next two weeks climbing up
in numbers to seven thousand. Do
not fail to have your children exam
ined. 1t is no difficult matter. One
third of all those already examined
were found to be infected. So, you
see, there is one chance out of three
that your child has the disease. 1t is
duty you owe to yourself and to
your child to have this work done. Do
not be guilty of criminal neglect. It
is crime to refuse light when it may
be had for the asking.

LET'S HAVE AN AGRICULTURAL
FAIR

We heartily commend the recon-
dation Of Mr.. L. J. Browning to make
the County Fair more of an agricul-
tural fair and less of horse racing
affair. He advocates reducing the
racing purses and spending what
money we have in getting better re-
suits in agricultural exhibits. That
such a course is common sense, wit
ness the great agricultural fair held
in Columbia. There was no racing,
no tide shows, no frills, no tricks and
"shines," to gull an unsuspecting pub
lie. Yet, it was a great success.
We trust the professional horse
racing will be cut out entirely. If
owners of county raised horses wish
to race, let them do so to their hearts
content; but the professional, let him
90 elsewhere with his activities. Let's
make the fair a real agricultural fair
and not a carnival. The people of
Union county will then patronize it
better and the results will be far bet
ter, we honestly believe.

A Safer, More Reliable Remedy Has
Taken Its Place in the Drug
81 Store and in the Home.
"A few years ago, men, women and
children took calomel for sluggish
liver and for constipation. They
took risks when they did so, for calo-
mel is dangerous drug. Your fam
lily doctor will be the first to tell you
this if he discovers you dosing your
self with calomel.
But the drug trade has found a
safer, more pleasant remedy than cal
omel in Dodson's Liver Tone.
The Rice Drug Co., tells US that
their drug store sells Dodson's Liver
Tone in practically every case of bill
iousness and liver trouble where calo-
mel used to be taken.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegetable
liver tonic that is absolutely harm
less for children and grown people. It
sells for Soc bottle and is guar
anteed to be entirely satisfactory by

son, but that does not alter the case
