Two years ago in Whena, Forest
county. Wisconsin,, Fred Appleby
gave an Indian half pint bottle Of
whiskey. He was soon arrested on a
charge made by the state for giving
an Indian liquor and was fined $32.
Thinking that the trouble was over
Appleby came to Grand Rapids Min
nesota and had almost forgotten the
incident when he was again arrested
by Frank w. Tuft, deputy United
States marshal, on the same charge.
z The charge had been made out in
the district attorneys office at st.
Paul and was given to the deputy to
make the arrest. Tuft accompanied
the young man to Bemidji where he
was tried before United States Com
missioner Simons and was asked to
give bonds amounting to $500 to APP
pear In court in Milwaukee. The
necessary bond could not be furnish
ed and he was ordered taken to the
county Jail In st. Louis county where
he will remain until Judge Morris of
Duluth issues an order to have him
removed to Wisconsin where he will
be taken before the federal court.
The prisoner has a good record and
according to authorities and friends
comes from a good family. AS the
Indian was q government ward the
charge was not dropped after the
state had taken action.

Saves Taxpayers 100000

- Saves Taxpayers $2,000.000 ~
Secretary OF the Navy Josephus
Daniels deserves the support of the
Nation in the courageous and eff
fective flight he is making to rescue
the Navy Department from the ten:
der mercies of the armor ring. For
years the Navy has been dominated
by the armour ring. Having a
mon opoly on the manufacture of ar
NOR plate in this country, the armor
ring has been able to demand and
obtain extorionate prices for armor
plate. Secretary Daniels called a
halt, almost the first day he entered
office. Through real competitive
bidding he has already saved the Gov
eminent more than $4,000, 600, and
has been in office only one year.
Real Competitive Bidding
Recently he awarded a contract
for building 100 torpedo TASKS; in
Guiding heads. There was competi-
|tion; new contractors entered the
field previously monopolized by the
ring, and the Secretary of the Navy
was able to .purphase 100 TASKS for
f$58,246 which under former condi-
tions would have cost $115;075.s
| The bids of the Bethlehem Steel
Co., and the Midvale Steel Co., two
Of the three concerns comprising the
armor ring, under honest competi-
ttive bidding showed a reduction of
a. per cent as compared with bids
for similar forgoings submitted by
these companies only four months
previous. ..f
Personally I believe that these Of
ficers who in the expenditure Of the
|people's money have been paying
I$115,076 for supplies which could
Ihave been obtained for $58,246
should, somewhere or in some man.

accounting for their acts.

Get Bulk of Contracts

Under this practice, which gives
q few officers altogether too much
freedom in the handling of so many
millions Of the peoples funds q few
favored contractors have been able to
obtain the great bluk Of the fat Gov
eminent contracts. ss.
For instance, three concerns have
obtained from the Army and Navy
more then 800, 100000 worth of
contracts In II years. These three
concerns have conspired to prevent
competitive bidding between them,
and the Army and Navy officers have
only winked at this teamwork on the
part of the armor and ammunition
trusts. 800 .5s3a
/. The Army and Navy officers have
shown marked generosity In spend
