GOLDEN RULE" JONES HAS
NOTHING ON MAYOR POTTER.
OF MASON CITY.
FINDS WORK SURE CURE
FOR IMAGINARY ILLS
Every Man Avrsstsd Must Work Either
For Himself or FamiIy-compeIls
to Don Uniform and Join Army Of
"vvhite Winss"-sinsIe enlistment"
Usually Has Desired Effect.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, July 9.-Toledo, with its
golden rule mayor, Jones. in it's day
has nothing on Mason City with its
white wings mayor, +. A. Potter. Mayor
Potter is something Of philosopher,
and after month Of presiding over po-
lice court, has reasoned that work is a
sure cure for q lot Of imaginary ills.
When man is busy he generally keeps
out of trouble, and when a man finds
that he must work for himself and
family either voluntarily or fnvolun-
tarily, he soon joins the volunteers.
That is the basis of the squad OF
white wings that adorns Colonel Pot
ter's municipal street department, and
the habituals who renew their acquain-
lance with the mayor as police judge
are mustered into the ranks at once,
and a single enlistment into the army
generally has the desired effect. Under
Mayor Potter's new military rules all
fines are paid-either in money or
work. If the man has the money, and
the family will be the ones to suffer
by his paying his fine, the mayor
makes Jail sentence and puts the man
to work All longtime and Short time
prisoners are put in white suits and
put on the streets, either to help the
regular street force. or set to cleaning
up alleys, vacant lots, and unkempt
yards, ETC. This work is charged to
the property owners, who heretofore
have been Indifferent to the clean up
orders, and they are compelled to come
across when they pay their taxes, so
two much needed accomplishments are
recorded--the compulsory renovation Of
unkempt lots and alleys in the heart
of the city, at the expense of the own
ers, generally men Of means, and re-
lieving the city of the burden Of feed
ing prisoners at the expense of the tax
payers.
Colonel Potter is member Of the
Tourist Union of Hoboes No. ST"
which was immortalized at the national
convention at Britt a number of years
ago, in all the humorous literature OF
that,day, but he is no respector of per-
sons, and the hobo who drifts into the
city, card or no card, high sign. pass

charged with rape on a little 5-year- old
girl at Conrad plead guilty to the
charge in court today and Judge Boies
has taken the matter under advises
ment before passing sentence. The
statute calls for life sentence for this
crime.
Henry Neessen and ]. B. Calderwood
had an auto collision near Holland the
other evening which made kindling
wood of one of the cars. Neessen's
car turned over and landed on top OF
him. but fortunately no one was
seriously injured.
Notice has just been received that
tho postmaster at this place will re-
ccive an increase Of 800 per year In
his salary.
Paul C. Akin drove $50 head Of hogs
to town today for shipment to market
1t took six cars to hold them and they

said the mayor to a squad this morn
ing. "You are here on your own mo-
ton, but every time you come there
will be a uniform ready for you. and
work to do. and you will have oppor-
tunity for muscular development com-
with the length Of your stay
with General Turnkey"
Mayor Potter has appointed George
Gale, who has had experience handling
large forces OF men at rough work at
the cement plants, as overseer of the
white wings, and he sees to 1t that
every member of the army does a fun
days work. Already tramps are giving
the city wide berth. and the chronic
police court visitor Is beating It" after
his first experience. The money the
prisoners earn not only pays for their
board but pays their overseer and other
incidentals, which formerly were all
expense to the city.
