 Montgomery After Slot Machines.
 Grand Juror c. B. Montgomery of Packer has the following to say in re- gard to a recent Investigation: "On Monday morning l was notified that slot machines were being operat- l ed in saloons contrary to law went to the Junction House in Plainheld there was no machine there, at Riley's Ho- tel and at Warmers saloon was un- able to find any slot machines, but in Moosup found three. At the Moosup ! House told them to put-the machine ! out, but evidently the proprieor had made a deal and he def1ed me. At La Roses saloon the bartender laughed at me. At Henry Lemary's saloon the | proprietor told me that the machine would be on deck just the same in spite of me. Not having any idea that local | constables would assist me in removing the dirtiest violation on earth-slot | machines-I notified the state police and up to Tuesday night have had nc | action from that body.
 At once shall proceed to show whether grand juror is elected to be month or to enforce the law.

Major of Missouri for vice president on the ticket with Pres ident Wilson. Missouri democrats have undertaken an active canvass in Governor Majors behalf. This fact is arousing considerable interest, because the friends of Vice President Marshall are understood to have regarded his renomination as probable, if not a foregone conclusion. The Missouri candidate has been formally indorsed by the democratic state convention Of his state. Major of Missouri Means a Majority in the Middle West" has been adopted as the slogan of the gov ernor's boomers. Governor Major, who is fifty years old, is a friend of Speaker Clark.

Sfsson has already served term at Atlanta for a similar offence, and in imposing sentence, Judge Brown said: T can see only one way to stop you committing this offence. That is to put you where you cannot commit it. You are simply a persisting eriTn- ina1, who behaves himself well in prison" The latter part of the judges remark referred to a statement made by Assistant United States Attorney Peter Cannon, who informed the court that Sisson had a good prison record.
 The accused claimed that he was suffering from lead poisoning, but the court informed him that the question of his health was a matter for execu- tive consideration and that he could only treat the case as that of a per sistent offender.
