BLIND WANT ADS

Editor Day Book-I notice in the

uses five columns space to tell about
the Help Wanted advertising done in

ton how many were bona-fide ads
maybe it would be more to the point.
Having been looking for position Of
a certain kind for some time I have
used the Tribune as a means of find
ing such, and it is only reasonable
to think that occasionally one would
get results. It is more convenient
for me to use the blind ads and 1
think they are a fake. Will some

Protect School Children. - The
Herald says q public schools, at
tended by $4,000 children, are in fire
danger because the average distance
to fire alarm box is two-fifths of a
mile; and the finance committee of
the school board says the city can't
afford to put 'em in.
Thereupon the Herald says Chi
cago can't afford to trife with the
lives of children" and demands that
this money must be found"
If julius ROsenwald and other rich
taxdodgers would obey the law and
pay their taxes there would be plenty
of money to put in fire alarm boxes,
and also to increase the pay of
school teachers say nothing of
the new school buildings that are
needed and could be built.
We are now told the school board
will have something like $1,000 less
in 1915 than last year, and with the
Herald and other Big Biz newspapers
openly advocating taxdOdging by the
rich the chances are that mighty few
people in Chicago will file any sched-

If the miIlionaires can refuse to
file schedules of personal property
and get away with it, why should
anybody file schedules?
If ROsenwald, worth over $25,000,-
900, won't pay taxes on his stock in
the Sears-Roebuck dump, why
should anybody pay taxes on his
household goods or money in the

The taxdodging by milliOnaires,
and open support of it by the kept
press, may put Chicago up against
mighty embarrassing situation next
year.
If States Attorney Hoyne were
given the support he ought to get
there would be less taxdodging by
the rich and plenty of money for all
legitimate public purposes.

Sims of the state prison for failing to execute Faltin MT Jones is confident that he can secure the arrest of MT Sims and incarcerate him in the Marlcopa county jail until such time as tie supreme court sees it 10 liberate him.
 Sims. according 10 the attorney general was entirely outside of the law in refusing to go on with the execution after the board had in formed the warden that it would not interfere. It was, according to Mr. Jones' the Wardens duty to go ahead
 MT Jones was in doubt as to Sims sincerity in refusing to execute the condemned man. He instructed his assistant. George Harben. to remain at the prison until after the hour set for the expiration of the time set for the execution. Harben remained at the prison until after 1 o'clock. and then officially reported To Jones that Faltin had again escaped his pun ishment.
 MT. Jones officially informed Sims yesterday morning that in case he refused to go on with the execution he would be cited for contempt This failed to move Sims. He was very jocular over the idea of going to jail, and throughout the day MT. Jones and the warden were on the best of terms.
 Just before leaving the prisor. Jones said he shook hands with Sims and said: Bob, we are still good friends, officially and otherwise
 The attorney general was very con- fident last evening that he had the law behind him and that he could make things very warm for Sims Leslie Hardy, assistant attorney general remained in Phoenix all day
