MANITOBA OFFICIALS
ARE INDICTED

Winnipeg, Man, March 2s.-True
bills were returned by the grand jury
in the assize court late today against
Sir Redmond Robin, former premier
of this province; George r. Caldwell
and James H. Howden, who were
members of the Robin cabinet, and
Thomas Kelly, contractor, now being
held in Chicago, charging conspiracy
to defraud in connection with the
erection of the Manitoba Parliament
building.
The grand jury, which for several
weeks has been investigating charges
of alleged graft against Kelly and the
former government officials, recon-.
mended that the trials be held in
June. A date will be set for argu.
ment, since it is the expressed desire
of the defense that the hearings be
held Immediately.
True bills were found against Sir
Rodman and Caldwell and Howden on
charges Of. conspiracy to defraud. of
the corruption of witnesses, and of at
tempting to corrupt witnesses. A
true bill was also found against Sir
ROdman on a charge of destruction
of public documents, and on another
count of the attempted destruction
of public documents.

THE DEADLY MEDICINE CHEST,

! THE DEADLY MEDICINE CHEST.
Is your medicine cabinet clean an(
in order? If so. you are the eXcep
tional family. At least, Mr. John L
Boyd, in the Forecast for March, say!
disorder is it's usual chara cteristic
dissatisfaction comes from a resort t(
it, and danger is often rampant upor
its shelves.
Germ-laden tOothbrushes, odds anC
ends of old prescription medicines
old tins that may come in handy some
| day, and various other unwholesomc
| rag-tag and bobtail of therapeutics
all of which ought to be in the ash
can, are its usual contents.
Mr.. Boyd may be little hard on
the owners of medicine cabinets
which is to say, on almost every fam.
lily sheltered by a roof-but it is a
curious inconsistency that in homes
where rooms are spotless, the linen
closet perfect. every pantry shelf a
JOY the medicine cabinet is left to
run itself. Where, oh where, is the
household schedule which says, "Wed.
nesday, 1O:45 a. M, wash down
shelves of medicine cabinet?"
Every person his own toilet arti.
cles' is the new motto. Where each
person cannot have his own cabinet
and be responsible for it, each should
at least have his own shelf. Poisons
should be plainly labeled and, if pos
sible, kept under separate lock and
key. Never under any circumstances
to eat or drink anything in the dark
is another valuable precaution.
A few simple disinfectants, percx-
ide or hydrogen for delicate tissues,
boric acid for eyes, iodin for parts
which can stand it, are recommend
ed; also, adhesive plaster, absorbent
cotton and sterilized gauze A book
let telling what to do in case of acct
dent or poisoning is useful. But. says
Mr.. Boyd, 1.-THE most efficacious and
the safest article to use in emerg-
ency is the telephone. After the doc
tor is on his way, the book for first
aid may be consulted and its sugges-
lions acted upon. But first call the
doctor!"
Spring housekeeping or moving
time makes suitable occasion for
reforming the deadly medicine chest,
and for making resolutions to keep
it in useful shape hereafter.

Bob" returned to his native heath
last week, following the circulation
in Wisconsin of this fact. Naturally
the unvarnished statement that "The
Little Giant" stood for rae dry" pro.
gram startled the people who have
made Milwaukee famous. Such a
plank has been conspicuous by its alb
sence in the wisconsin Idea" the abb
breviated title for LaFollettes poll
ces.
LaFollette's sudden return surpris-
ed the; politicians. They expected him
TO deny or affirm the North Dakota
platform, which his managers in this
state used as a bait to catch the pro
hibition vote at the recent presiden-
tial primaries. He did nothing of the
kind. His Wisconsin managers evad
ed direct answer by saying that
LaFollette had not been in North Da.
kota recently and could not be blatu.
ed for the frankness of his campaign
managers in that state.
But where does this leave the thou
sands OF voters who supported LaFol-
lette in North Dakota under the i'm
preston that he was for national
prohibition? The Tribune asks this
question as an advocate Of prohibit
ton. Those who supported LaFol-
lette, believing that he stood for pro-
hibition, national or otherwise, are
entitled to know whether his local
managers deceived the public in order
to capture votes.
Six of the ten delegates elected are
pledged to work for a prohibition
plank in the Republican platform at
Chicago. They are also sworn to
support LaFollette. The Wisconsin
senator should state his position at
once and if his managers misrepre-
sented his attitude on the prohibition
issue, he should be most anxious to
expose the fraud.
LaFollette cannot be for national
prohibition in North Dakota and
against it in Wisconsin unless he is
a monumental hypocrite and a polit-
ical faker. If he is not for prohibi-
ton, his North Dakota managers have
been guilty of rank political chican-
cry in misrepresenting the Wiscon-
sin senator's attitude upon an issue
which is as popular in the Badger
state as a ham sandwich at He.

0LD.TIM COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEA!

Get q small package Of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful OF the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break a cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus breaking up cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
q cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

Henry Nelson, ct al, Defendants ant
Respondents.
Syllabus: Action at law to recover
of the Rugby School District treasur
er and sureties on his official bond fol
balance of $2,521 and interest, lost
by the district through the failure OF
its depositary, the defunct First Ma
tional bank of Rugby.
Held: That the treasurer in depos
iting the school funds therein upon
order of the district board and in com
pliance with the statutes is not liable
upon his official bond where the
school funds are lost to the district
(2) The designation of Repositories
and requiring of bonds from them was
the duty and province of the school
board, not the treasurer.
co Under the record the treasur-
er was justified in assuming that the
board had complied with the law in
the designating of depositaries and
had exacted sufficient depositary
bonds.
ca The original designation of dc
positaries in 1905 was sufficient to
continue said bank as a legal depos-
itary and without redesignation in
July, 1907.
90 The loss arises principally
from the deposit of sinking fund
as to which the school board is en-
powered to order a deposit to be
made n dny depositary therefor, and
which depusitary may be designated
after advertisement and at any time.
The treasurer had the right to rely
upon the presumption that said bank
had been designated as a depCsitary
for such funds.
60 School treasurers have not the
control of the district funds except
in limited way for the purpose Of
depositing them in depositaries Sc
lected by the board. The authority
over school funds is with the dis
trict board since the enactment of
depositary statutes; and since which
time the treasurer is no longer an
insurer of the return Of school funds
