THE MAN WHO DOESN'T PAY.

How to keep track of the absconding debtor is a problem it is up to the trade to solve. The grocer, the baker and the clothier, the provision dealer, the coal dealer and the boarding house are taxed too heavily by the classes who cannot pay if they would, and would not pay If they could.
 The New York State Retail Gro cers' association is demanding a. state law to compel any family moving away from a given house to register its new address at the nearest police station to the old one. This is in line with the agitation by the city organization of grocers to make the moving van people furnish to the police the same sort of a record. The object is to keep track of debtors and lessen the aggregate of the losses of retail gro cers in bad bills.
 The trouble with such & scheme as this is that it subjects the honest, in dustrious citizen to an indignity every time he moves his family from one place to another. Police registration would not be considered a respectable requirement. for tenants who pay their bills, and it goes without saying it that the larger part of them do.
 D0Ci11tlIlS CO run IdA 6C dGCOuhkS IS wisdom on the part of trade unless a guaranty of settlement is furnished The man who cannot pay small bills is not likely to pay large ones.
 The men who have to be chased and dunned are not acceptable cred itors and every small tradesman has the names Of too many of these on his books and they are successful in beating him because he hasn't time to follow them up and it is not profit able to employ a collector.
 The business losses of the dealers are altogether too great and 1t Is not surprising they are looking for some way to keep track of the cheats and to keep them on the harassing line until they pay up.

CENSUS stioWs WE LIVE | LONGER

While all Europe is engaged in war and millions of men are trying to kill each other. and millions of women and children are in danger of starvation we have reformers in this country making a frantic campaign for the conservation of health by one fad or another, but all with the object oi trying to live without eating. These dietary faddists are the latest, but they have large company of veterans who have for years been preachfne against red meat and hot bread, beer and wine. cheese sandwiches. acid fruits and alcohol so that with the whole propaganda in action it becomes question of ignoring these lectures or trying to live on the old-fashioned prison fare of crust Of bread and cup of water. if we want to conserve health and prevent the race on this side of the Atlantic dying off more rapidly than war can decimate tbe population of Europe-Washingt Herald.
 These faddists are doing a. great work and they are proving the joy of life consists of simple living and not over eating.

 disease and increases comfort; or that fasting gives the physical system a needed rest and cures chronic diseases which drugs do not check or overcome.
 The late Charles Courtney Haskell of Norwich prolonged his own life a quarter of a century at least, outliving a half dozen eminent specialists who declared him then to be incurable, al- though disease claimed him as its yic- tim at last By it he saved for a workingman his right arm. which the leading physician said was incurable and must be amputated making no charge for, his services. and similar wonderful cures he did for hundreds of others.

 Men and women of note from all parts of the world came to Norwich to confer with him and chronic invalids who by his counsel were made whole are blessing his name and his true science of living on three continents to say nothing of the islands of the seas.

The Democratic Co. Ticket

ty ticket was ever put out than
that which the democratic party
presents to the people of Meade
County this year. Every candi-
date is clean, able. efficient and
experienced.
For representative, H. Lew
elyn Jones has grown gray in the
lpractice of law in Kansas, and
his long experience and thorough
knowledge of existing law espec-
tally fits him for the work of re-
modelling old laws to make them
meet existing conditions. He
has the ability to draw bill so
that 1t will stand the tests of the
courts, IS progressive in his
ideas, and knows and respects
the desires of the people ID leg
islative matters. His name is
synonym for energy, and should
he be elected the people of this
district may rest assured that
they have representative whose
alertness and astuteness will
serve them well.
For County Treasurer, the Of
ficer who has charge OF the peo-
pies money, and whose work in
wolves an amazing amount of in
tricate bookkeeping, we present
the name of Frank Wehrle whose
whole life has been devoted to
clerical work. No one but a
thorough and experienced book
keeper should be entrusted with
this Office. Mr.. Wehrle's ex-
pertness in this line is fully es-
tablished. In recognition of his
ability he has been regularly
called upon by County Clerks
and Treasurers for the last quar-
ter of century to help them out
in time of need This has given
him thorough knowledge of the
records and it will not be neces-
sary for him to spend half of his
first year in learning the duties
of his Office. The voters cannot
be too careful iu selecting man
for this important Office.
Probably no Probate Judge in
the State has "stuck closer to
his knitting" than Judge Ran
dolph. During all the years he
has been in Office he has taken
but one vacation, that only for a
few days and on the advice of his
physician. If faithful conscien-
tious service is entitled to reward
Judge Randolph should be re-
elected.
For Clerk of the District Court
we cannot imagine the people of
Meade County doing anything 50
foolish as turning John Elliott
down. 1t is said by judges, law
yers, and all who have business
with his Office that no more ef-
ticient Clerk can be found in the
State of Kansas. John is we'll
known, and his faithful efficient
service, his willingness and
readiness to accommodate anyone
at any time has so endeared him
to the people that his reelection
ought to be practically unani-
nous.
For County Attorney we have
an officer, tried and true, in the
person of Frank S. Sullivan. He
is a thorough student, possesses
a very valuable library of which
the county gets the full benefit,
and his whole time aud attention
are devoted to the law. The
confidence which people impose
in him and IN his ability as a law
yer is evidenced by his extensive
practice, and it is notable fact
that he settles more controvers-
les out of court than he takes iu-
to court. His ability to amicably
adjust matters and keep trivial
cases out of court has saved
Meade County more money than
