BULL MAYOR FILES
FOR COUNTY BOARD

William J. Doyle. mayor of Buhl.
filed Thursday morning for countv
commissioner in the Seventh district.
Mr.. Doyle is serving his third term
, as mayor Of Buhl. At each election
he has been known as the worlfne-
mems candidate. At the last election
he defeated his opponent by a vote OF
two to one, indicating that while in
office he delivered the goods and re-
deemed his pledges to labor.
Mr.: Doyle has been a resident Of
the Mesaba range for % years and
has been hard working man all his
life. He served for three years as a
member of the Great Scott township
board and was the first man on the
Mesaba range to introduce the eight
hour day on public work. Later when
he became mayor Of Buhl he put
village employees on the eight-hour
basis. AS a result Of this Buhl was
the first town in northern Minnesota
to employ its workmen on the eight
hour day. This was in 1913.
During his incumbency of the Of
flee Of mayor Of Buhl, Mr.. Doyle was
forced to antagonize the mining COM
panles, VINO practically dominated
the politics Of the village. He made
a fight there similar to tho one made
by Victor Power of Hibbing, and won
out. Today Buhl has the best paved
streets. finest lighting system and
best equipped schools Of any town on
the ranges. The village also owns its
one municipal heating, lighting and
water plant.
Workingmen in st. Louis county
are very much interested in the can
didacy Of Mr.. Doyle. A man of his
type is needed on the county board.
If the workingmen Of the Seventh
district will take the pains to go to
the primaries on Monday, June 10,
there will be no question about Mr..
Doy1e's nomination and his election
in November.

$4,000, found on a taxi chauffeur
charged with being in unlawful pos
session of property supposed to have
been stolen.
The Nelson relic had been in pawn
for S. since September, 1912, and the
taxi man went to redeem it. 1t was
then discovered that it was worth a
large sum and that the hair in it
was that Of Lady Hamilton. The taxi
man said 1t was given to his wife on
her marriage, but the police were not
satisfied with the story and arrested
him.
How the miniature came into the
possession of the chauffeur Is a mys-
terry. 1t is gold mounted, as is also
the dark green case in which It was
enclosed. The plated hair of Lady
Hamilton is rich brown in color and
surrounds an emblematic anchor in
pearls, set in blue enamel.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-

the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts OF the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness. drowsiness. irrita-

matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
