AN OUNCE OF PREVEN-:.

Spring is here and the warm
weather coming, the garbage box
is full. the garbage pile promis-
cuously distributed in town and
country, the fly incubators are
warming to the Matching temper
ature in all parts Of the county.
The barns have been cleaned
and the debris piled by the door.
the pig pens are a beautiful nest
for the cultivation of disease
germs. even the hen house and
dog kennel are forgotten or neg
lected. The small mansion in
the back corner of the lot is un-
thought of.
Now let's awake to the fact
that all these little things are
nests for the developement of
disease germs and treat them ac-
cordingly.
Clean up the manure pile and
put it on the tillable ground.
wash up the barns and pens,
clean the dog house an: other
sources of infection and let us
have a clean sweet Cheyenne

Our Legislature,

The legislators have been in
session about sixty days and they
have done nothing Of much i'm
portancc. only draw their salary
which is about $50. 100000. And
some of them haye got into tro-
uble and will likely land in the
penitentiary. Both Houses have
republican majorities and could
have passed bills regardless of
the democrats. but it seems as
though they would rather filibus-
ter and retard business. rather
than push and save the state un-
necessary expenses. Now they
have Representative w. w. How
land arrested and in jail charged
with accepting money to be used
as a bribe to get certain bills
passed, and they are after other
parties higher up" they have
even debarred the reporter from
the Denver Post from their Sit
tings so he could not expose
some of their dirty work. This
certainly is a rotten deal. and
that under a republican admins
tration.

Four Regulars to Return to Line Face Yellow Jackets Alabama Will Be Outweghed 10 Pounds to the Man. Crimson Will Depend on Speed of Team
 Followers Expect Victory

University November 3-(Special.) ) While last Saturdays victory over Se- vance has convinced Alabama supporters that the Crimson eleven this season stands among the most powerful in Dixie, it is generally admitted that Coach Kelley $ warriors have not yet been put to the acid test They have yet to match their, prowess with the real contenders fer the south's premier honors.
 This test, it is believed. will come Sat urday when the Crimson clash with Coach Heisman's Yellow Jackets. On that occa- sion for the first time this season the Crimson will meet an eleven of appre- ciably superior weight. Tech this sea son comprises the heaviest eleven in the south, not excepting Vanderbilt, and will outweigh the Alabama machine nearly 10 pounds to a man When it is remem- bered that Kelley's warriors tip the beam for an 17O-pound average it becomes ap- parent that Heisman is working with an eleven of unusual power However it is not believed that the Jackets will be as fast and as shifty as their lighter oppo- nents, and this preconceived advantage will go far toward discountenancing the advantage of weight
 Again the Crimson will meet in the Georgia eleven whole team of veterans. Heisman, it is understood has this sea son an eleven which he has been work ing for three years to make. This fall the material which entered Tech two years ago is showing the result of two seasons drilling. In this regard the Geor- gians will have their Alabama opponents at a distinct disadvantage.

About War Decorations

London, October 25.--Why the young navy officer who swan ashore from a British submarine in the Sea of Mar mora and blew up the Ismid railway bridge in spite of the Turkish guard. should receive only the distinguished service order has astonished the pub lie, since so many lesser heroes have received the greater honor of the Vic toria Cross. But the award was made under rule that has long obtained in the services. Even Lieutenant Hol- brooke would have obtained merely the D. s. O. for taking his submarine through the mine field of the Dardan- elles and sinking a Turkish warship had not the King himself intervened By the unwritten law of the service the Victoria Cross is awarded for a deed of great gallantry performed without orders, and generally for sav ing lives under fire. The D. S. o. Is for gallantry, in following orders. Yet Lieut.. Guy Hughes, in blowing up the Ismid bridge, acted on his own initia- tive from the time he left his boat un- til he was picked up again, and in popular opinion should have received the more coveted medal. It is good deal like the case of lieutenant Warne- ford in attacking and wrecking a Zep- pelin, which resulted in a V, C.

Railroad Men Get Raise

London, October 25.-After protracted negotiations the demand of the English railway men for an increase in their war bonus has been settled by the grant ing of about half their demand. Under the new agreement the war bonus of most railway employees is practically doubled. The rate granted at the be- ginning of the war averaged 50 to 15 cents weekly the revised bonus will. ins most cases, reach $1.25 weekly. The ad- justment will cost nearly S20,000O00 a year. Presumably the government will take over most of this extra burden In return for the higher war bonuses now allowed, the mems leaders have agreed not to present any further demands dur ing the time the roads remain under government control.
