ORDERLY FOURTH

Arms or Cannon Crackers
in Rock Island.

Chief OF Police James Brinn issued
orders to the police today to enforce
the law relative TO firearms and cannon
crackers to its fullest extent tomorrow.

in the streets but in the residences as
well. No cannon crackers have been

POLITICAL ADVERTISING.

Hon. Everett L. Werts of
Oquawka, Representative in
the Forty-Eighth General
Assembly from this, the 33rd,
Senatorial district, requests
us to announce that he will.
be candidate for renomina-i
ton at the primary election
to be held September 9, 1914,
subject to the will of the
democratic voters of the dis
trict.
Mr.. Werts has twice repre-
sented the district in the
General Assembly as a mem
Der of the House, and proved
himself to be a most worthy
and capable man-winning
the applause and approba-
ton of the best people of the
district and state, without
regard to party afiliation,
for doing honest and consci-
entious work His every
vote on important questions
was cast In the interest of
the masses and against the
classes. He studiously avoid
ed all legislation that he CON
sidered would prove dis
tasteful to the better element
and burdensome to the tax
payers.
In view of his past fine rec
ord, he is entitled to, and we
believe he will receive, the
hearty support of all friends
of good government who are
affiliated with the Democrat

cases doing less service than those
receiving smaller amounts. For the
technical positions there are no pro
visions to secure men technically
qualified or to guarantee permanence
of tenure.
Provisions as to accident reporting
are especially confusing. 1t is difficult
to state definitely to whom reports
must be made: reports of some acct
dents are required to be made to sew
eral authorities; while in fact the re-
ports made are incomplete and of little
value.
In the plan under consideration by
the committee, IL is proposed that the
several labor and mining bureaus be
consolidated into a department of labor
and mining, with the following bureaus
or divisions:
(a) Bureau OF statistics.
OBJ Bureau of inspection. to cover
the work OF the factory inspection de-
partment;
Co Bureau of employment, to con
duct public employment offices and to
inspect private employment agencies;
I'D Bureau of workmen's compensa-
ton.
(e) Division OF mining.
One Executive Head.
The department should have a sin
gle commissioner as executive head,
and two deputy commissioners, who,
with the commissioner, should form
an industrial commission. with power
10 conduct hearings and investiga-
tons. TO adopt regulations and exer-
else discretionary powers. Each bu-
reau should be under a single execu-
tive officer. The division of mining
should have a chief mine inspector and
also a state mining board, to exercise
the functions of the several existing
mining boards. County mine inspec-
tors should be abolished and the state
inspectors increased
Provision should be made under
which administrative regulations could
be adopted to supplement and gradual
" replace detailed statutory require
ments. The enforcement provisions of
the law should be made more effec-
tive and the penalties more uniform.

HOW RESINOL
CLEARS AWAY
UGLY PIMPLES

It is so easy to get rid Of PimPles
and blackheads with Resinol, and 1t
costs so little, too, that anyone whose
face is disfigured by these pests Is fool
ish to keep on with useless cosmetics,
or complicated beauty treatments
See how simply it is done:
Battle your face for several minutes
with Resinol Soap and hot water, then
apply q little Resinol Ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash of with Resinol Soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
of cold water 10 close the pores. Do
this once or twice a day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing, antiseptic Resinol medication
soothes and cleanses the pores, leaving
the complexion clear and velvety.
Resinol stops itching instantly and
speedily heals skin humors. Resinol
