REED WANTS MONEY
FOR PROSECUTIONS
Attorney General Asks Law
makers to Give Cash to En-
force Prohibition.
ALSO FOR OTHER CASES

ttToW u Stdlt CORRESPONDENT
Lincoln, Dec. lS.-(Special.) AT
torney General Willis +. Reed will
ask the legislature to appropriate
100000 to enforce the new pro-
hibitory law and authority also to re-
move county attorneys who neglect
to enforce the law, according to his
report filed with the governor
While such large sum may not
be needed to enforce the law, accord
ing to Mr.. Reed the fact that the state
has sufficient sum to fight violations
will have a wholesome effect upon
wouldbe violators and cause them to
go slow. According to Mr.. Reed. if
the state was handicapped for funds
to carry on the fight, it would mean
that violaters would take chances i'll
hopes that the lack of funds would
prevent prosecutions. 1t would not
necessarially mean that such a sum
would be used, but if it was there to
use, there would be lack of viola
ltions.
Mr. Reed has asked that the appro-
priation for the purpose of carrying
on the irrigation cases and protect
thewater users of the state, be made
$4,000. There should be $4,000 ap-
propriated for the antitrust prose
cutions and $4,000 for general prose-
cutions.
Lack of funds during the next year
or SO to carry on prosecutions would
handicap the state severely and prove
menace to the successful termina-
ton of the cases, according to the
opinion of the attorney general and
he hopes that the members of the
legislature will see that there is need
for the amounts named.

Musterole Gives Delicious Comfort


When those sharp pains go shooting
through your head, when your skull
seems as if it would split, just rub a
little Musterole on the temples and
neck. 1t draws out the inflammation,
soothes away the pain, usually giving
quick relief.
Musterole is a clean, white ONT
ment, made with oil of mustard.
Better than a mustard plaster and
does not blister.
Many doctors and nurses frankly
recommend Musterolc for sore throat,
bronchitis, Group, stiff neck, asthma,
neuralgia, congestion, pleurisy, rhcu-

the back or joints, sprains, sore mus

EXCELLENT WORK
BY LIEUT. CLARK
Former Brattleboro Boy Highly Com
plimented for Military Service at
University of Maine.

4 recent issue of the Bangor Daily |
Commercial, of Bangor, Me. contained
a column story from the University of
Maine at Orono about the final inspec
ton of the military department of the
university by Capt. S. J. B. Shindel of
the general staff at Washington and a
review of the past year S work, which
has been under the direction of Lieut..
Frank Clark, formerly of Brattleboro,
son of Mrs. Frances f. Clark of }
Terrace street. Capt Shindel said he
had visited the university four years
and that this was the best inspection
he had seen there.
The despatch i'm the Commercial said:
. In his talk with the cadet officers at
the close of the drill. Captain Shindel
spoke well Of the cooperation of the
men in the work, and while the credit
for the wear s success is due to the ex-
traordinary leadership and instruction
from Lieut.. Clark, L. S. A.. a great
amount of credit is due the officers for
I their cooperation, and the student
body for their spirit and support
/ The Commercial s story also said:
- Lieut. Clark has had a very success
! full season at Maine. During his two
years here he has introduced many new
things in the department of military,
every one of which has been a com
plete success. Last year he was not
able to do as much as he wished. be
cause he was new here and did not
know the men, but this year the re
suits of his work have been wonderful.
He has added several advanced courses
to the military curriculum for the
juniors and seniors and has increased
by a great many the number of men
that make applications to elect mill
tary, which is only compulsory for
freshmen and sophomores.
THE problems, sham battles, out
post work and all the practical outdoor
maneuveTs have been successfully car
ried out this year. Before Lieut.
Clark came to Maine the time was de
voted to close order work and practice
marches, but the problems have now
been introduced with excellent re
suits
Lieut.. Clark has received orders
from Washington to report at Fort
Perry. near New London, Conn, July |
for the summer military drill. He will
be in Brattleboro few days befor,
that time.
