POSITIONS

NEW WORK SOME TIME
ABOUT JANUARYsF1R

4 \ j x j s.a- .
Mr.. Fred w. Rapp, secretary of the
local Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion, has rendered his resignation 10
the board of directors, same to take
effect some time near January the
first.
Mr.. Rapp will go as advance man
for DR.. Milford H. Lyon, the cvangel-
list, who conducted so successfully a
campaign in this city recently.
During the Lyon campaign coa-
Quoted in this city last spring year
ago, DIR. Lyon negotiated with Mr..
Rapp for this position aud ut inter
walls. since that time has renewed Ills
efforts and finally brought such
pressure to bear that Mr.. Kapp de.
cided to accept the offer.
Final negotiations were completed
several days ago when Mr.. Rapp Wis
tied DR.. Lyon who has been conduct
ing religious campaign ut Chilli
cotle, which campaign concludes to-
day.
Tho many people i'll this city who
we're brought into contact with the
work OF hlr. Rapp in the Lyons meet
ings. were thoroughly convinced of
the fact that he had gift for this
kind OF work and predict for him sue
cess in his new field Of labor. Mr..
ttapp is ali untiring worker. He will
succeed Rev. H. H. Pitzer. who has
been with DIR. Lyon for severaI years.
Tile local association regrets en-
ceedingly the resignation Of the sec
rotary. MIR. Rapp has been with the
organization for some five or six
years and the organization under his
efficient management has seen steady
growth along all lines.
The city at large will regret his
departure as he has been identified at
all times, with all things pertaining
10 the good of the city, having been
prominently identified in evangelical
church work.
Mr.. Rapp will not leave the city
until some time near the first OF the
year.
The news of Mr.. Rapp's rcsigna-
ton comes somewhat as surprise as.
1t was not generally known that he
would probably make change OF Yo-

Injunction
Is Granted
A TEST WILL BE MADE TO DE-
TERMINE WHAT C0NST1-
TUTES A HOTEL.

An.injunction was issued today by
Judge Vincent OF the intermediate
court. enjoining Sheriff G. D. Coma
way and State Tax Commissioner
fred Q. Blue from closing up the Eli
reka hotel in this city because the
proprietor John Niece has not yet talk
en- out hotel license for this license
year.
The injunction was obtained by
Attorney Harry Shaw who represent
cd Niece.
1t is claimed in the bill of particu-
lars that as Niece does not serve
meals at his place of business that he
is not conductisg a hosiery accord
hing to the definition OF the word in
1.-THE state law.
Deputy State Tax Commissioner
Anderson, CT Charleston, was in the
city about ten days ago and he or
dered Sheriff Conway to proceed at
once to collect the license and II 1t
was not paid to levy upon property
for the amount.
1t was agreed by the tax commits
sioner, sheriff and attorney for Mr.
Nocc that a test case should be
made out, OF the matter so no action
was taken by the authorities until
the courts decision was rendered.
The case is OF vital importance and
It may not be settled finally until q
decision is rendered by the supreme
court. 1t not only effects the Fair
mont hosiery but hundreds of other
hotels or rooming houses throughout

The city OF Fairmont had trouble
from the same cause at the beginning
CT the new license year but the city
law was changed so as to include as
hotels. the places where the meals
had been dispensed with.

funded to county on account of
time used on private work-firs
refund of the kind shown in
auditors reports during all of
the above years.
All papers, plats and maps in
the engineers Office are matters
of public record, just the same
as the auditors records. The
public may call for information -
and does, requiring considerable
expert time in giving correct in
formation. A card index system
of roads is kept, both by name
and by number, and this index
refers to all reports and official
papers regarding the road. A
card index is kept OF maps and
plats. The correspondence of
the office is 1900 to 1900 letters a
year, and with the development
of the county must eventually
come an extra office assistant
who can handle this mass of
technical correspondence. The
present engineer is using his
own typewriter, the office never
having been furnished one.
The whole time of the engineer
is bought by the county, and if
he goes out on private work, he
makes refund to the county for
the time used. This has not been
the custom in previous years,
however.
Work done for individuals by
the office during working hours
is charged at regular rates, and
paid in to the county. Work
can be done by deputies on their
own time. Maps, plats, etc., are
sold by the office, and the fees
turned over to the county.

While they last one will be
given with every dollars worth
of subscription money paid into
the Examiner. When they are
gone, the offer expires.
Or, while they last, one will be
given with every $1.50 paid into
the Examiner for subscription to
any of the many magazines or
papers which the Examiner has
on it's clubbing list. This list in
cludes practically all the leading

The only qualification to this offer
is that you must be a paid in ad-
vance subscriber to the Examiner
to get a mail box on subscription
to any other paper or magazine.
If you have any idea that this
offer is not a BIG ONE, come in

see for yourself how much one of
them would cost you. You can't
buy one of them, but you can have
one free by taking advantage of
either of the above offers.
The number is limited. The

In the primary election, voters
should follow the intent of tn pri-
mary law in voting for the TWO
BEST men when four or more are
running for the same Office.
Some former attempts to throw
the second choice to the weak
men in the hope of electing
some certain man has proved
disastrous, and has not accom-
plished the purpose in any case.
But if the first vote is cast for
the best man, and the second
choice for the next best, it is
quite likely that the really best
man will win.
In the democratic and progress
sive primaries, second choice
will be necessary for United
States senator, and the same
principle should be used. In east
ern Washington, George Turner
will undoubtedly get the
great bulk of the democratic
votes because he is generally con-
sidered the strongest man, but
should any one happen to prefer
one of the other candidates, and
only give Turner second choice,
no one of the four can object for
each of the four will have an
equal chance in the statewide
vote. In the republican congress-
ional fight. with ten candidates,
the principle of voting for the
best two is the only one which
is fair to all candidates, and for
the best intrests of the district.
No party wants to see weak
ling actually nominated for con-
gress on any ticket, and the
proper time to eradicate the
weaklings is at the primary.
