A MERCHANDISE GAMBLE

You know the men who are in bust
ness in this community You have
known them for number Of years,
You know them as as being honorable
and upright in every dealing you
have had with them.
Knowing them in this way, are you
willing to go to their stores and pay
to them money for merchandise Of
which they can show you only a pic
ture, and for which you must wait
from one week to a month after they
have received your money?
Of course you are not.
But you are doing that very same
thing with people you do not know
when you send your money to the
mail-order houses of the cities. You
have only a picture or a brief des-
cription of an article from which to
determine it's value. After you have
sent your money you must trust to
the intelligence Of a poorly paid boy
or girl to send you in return the mer-
chandise you want.
The people of this community who
persist in dealing with the mail-order
houses are doing both themselves
and this town an injustice.

judge Timmins Makes Speech.

Judge w. F. Timmins of Yuma
spoke to a fair-sized audience Tues
day evening at an Openair meeting
held on California avenue, on the
prohibition amendments. The Judge
favored the wet side of the prohibi-
tion question, and made frequent
quotations from Holy Writ to bear
him cut in his argument. His re-
marks against the state reclama-
tion bill and the good roads bill, how
ever, were not received very favor
ably by his audience. Parker is a
unit for the state reclamation meas
ure, as it's passage means the re-
clamaation of the reservation lands
located here, and We doubt. if there
is any speaker in the static who
would be able to influence single
vote against the bill in this pre-
cinct. So far as We are able to
learn Mr. Timmins is the only pub
lie speaker in the state who is op-
posing the state reclamation bill.

of distant families appealing to me

COM MUNICATED.

The famous Cor notorious) wet anG
dry Mr.. w. F. Timmins (dry wher
running for office, wet when defeat
ed) OF Yuma, held forth on oul
streets Tuesday evening in favor Of
the liquor traffic.
Mr.. Timmins left the realms ot
modern life with all it's complicated
problems and sought his argument
mostly from the bible, trying harC
to make it appear that Jesus spent
most of his time while on earth to
show the great benefit alcoholic bev
erageS We're to the human race.
That this argument failed to sink
very deeply into the minds of intel
ligent voters goes without saying. II
is a sorry spectacle to see this man
prOstituting his naturally bright in
tellect for hire to uphold traffic
that has been the curse Of his own
life, and which has kept him from
achieving a place among his fellow
men, which his ability and ambition
would advise the opposition to hire
some one to represent them whose
whole life is not an open protest
against the saloon system, or else
send Mr. Timmins where he is un.
known.
With all their plausible arguments
the cold facts remain that the sa.
loon is a daily menace and injury
to the we'll being of our community
that it is fostering law breaking by
shielding and encouraging gambling;
that it is causing dissension and un-
happiness in families by enticing men
to spend money there which should
go for comforts and necessities at
home; that it is depriving little chill
dren of their birthright of proper
environment, decent clothes, proper
food, and the privileges of school to
fit them for a fair chance in life.
The saloon enriches one or two
men in the community at the expense
of all that is best in citizenship. 1t
is a fact that the saloon bill is paid
while the grocer and butcher waits.
1t gives employment, comparatively,
to none, and one drunken row and
shooting scrape can eat up what rev.
enue comes from it, besides the af-
termath of charitable work which
must be borne by the citizens to
provide for the unfortunates affected
directly or indirectly by the liquor
curse.
Voters, don't be blinded to the
welfare of your community. Vote
it out Of existence.

St. Joseph, Mo-, May 30.-A dreadfully
wild inning lost the second game Of the
series for the Drummers Friday, the
Kaws taking the long end Of a 10 to 4
count. This makes the two teams di-
vided Oh the series thus far with a
game apiece to their credit. Two bat
and Drummers for this afternoon, after
which Gear and his crew return home.
The frame when the visitors really
won the game was in the seventh. Bell
started to blow badly and Sterzer was
called to the rescue. but he failed to
stop the truculent Kaws. All the good
work happened after two were down.
With one laid away. Cochran singled
to third. Lemon singled to right, and
both runners advanced a base on For
sythe's infield out. Koerner, who was
the smuggling hero of the day, just as
he was Thursday, scored Cochran and
Lemon with two Dagger to right. Bell
was then replaced by Sterzer. Tallion
was hit by q pitched ball. Rapps de-
livered a single. scoring Koerner. Gear
doubled to right. Tallion and Rapps
counting: MCGEE got an infield hit and
Gear tailed on Clarke's blow Of the
same kind. Sterzer hit Cochran with a
pitched ball. filling the bases. but
Lemon retired the side, forcing Coch-
ran at second.
Pepper" Clarke pitched excellent ball
and as long as his teammates were in
danger he didn't give the Drummers
much encouragement of running up a
very big score. In the ninth he got into
a bad rut at the start but pulled out
with much grace. Patterson, Britton
and Davis, the first three men up,
singled. Pat scoring. but Wall flied to
Gear. Griffith famed and Pettigrew,
batting for Duffy. forced Davis at Sec
ond. and 1t was all over.
Barney Duffy pitched the ninth in

tional score of an infield hit, a base on

performed here by DR.. B. ]. Patterson
Of this city. Little Edna Williams was
seriously burned while playing around
a bonfire about two months ago. The
burned places covered sixty-eight
square inches. Lately it was decided
that grating OF skin would be neces-
sary to save the child's life. Rev. O..
H. LOOMS of this city and pastor of
the First Oh: istian church of this city
volunteered and went under the sur
geon's knife that the life Of the little
girl might be saved. Tho operation
was a very painful one for Rev.
LOOMS. but he refused to take an
anesthetic and the operation was rapid
and very successful. DIR. Patterson
also removed some cuticls from his
own body and used 1t with that of
Rev. Loomis in order to not have to
take so much from the one who SO
,fberAlly volunteered.
