Since the war, colored paint has more
than doubled in value.
We have found the real oxides. They
will wear five times as long as
others because they are natural
paints.
We intend to build a linseed oil mill to
grind flax and mustard seed.
Why should the farmer ship his flax
500 miles to market when we can
grind it here and make paint
enough to supply the nation.
We believe there are many mineralsi in
the bad Lands" And we intend
to develop them. If you wish to
help, call at our office on Sims St.

Figures Compiled by Town Clerk from

Complete returns Of the registration
for Rock Island township, which clos

fifteen thousand electors in this town
ship and substantiate the prediction
made Wednesday by Town Clerk W. A.
Frewert that the registration would
90 over fourteen thousand.
Exact registration is 1895 which is
$3.50 above the estimate made by the
hoard Of supervisors when the town
ship was redistricted last fall and five
precincts added.
This showing bears out the state
ment made Wednesday that the regis
tration indicates that there are more
than thirty-ive thousand residents in
the township and nearly forty thou
sand in the city, which includes part
of South Rock Island township
Population averages two and one
half times the total men and women
registration. According to this basis
there are 1892 residents in Rock Is
land township. In the territory in the
city south Of Eighteenth avenue there
are several thousand residents and
conservative estimates would indicate
that the population of the municipality
is near forty thousand.
Women Vote Large.
That the board underestimate the
women vote to great extent is shown
by the figures. The boards estimate
placed the women vote at $3.50, while
the actual registration is 6,S73, an in
crease of 1890. There is a gain of
$40 in mems votes in the registration
over the estimate of the board. Board S
estimate was 1892 and actual registra-
ton is S.032

will have to redistrict Rock Island

Nine million JEWS
IN AIBJE.CT Want
Appeal for Aid Made on Be
half Of limo cent " tins
Of War.

Thursday OF next week, January 27,
has been set aside by President VIII.
son as the day for the people Of the
United States to contribute to the fund
that Is being raised to alleviate the
sufferings OF the Jews In the war
stricken countries of Europe. The Gov
ernors of some Of the states have fol-
lowed the Presidents example and
there Is every indication that there
will be generous response to the ap.
peal all over the United States.
This is the first time in the history
OF the Jewish nation that her people
have asked those OF other creeds for
succor. No matter how much In need
OF aid or support in the times that
have passed, they have found their
strength has bsen sufficient to care
for those in distress But the existing
situation is without precedent in its
magnitude, and although the Jews
have contributed generously, they
have been compelled to make gen
eral appeal.
There are suffering Jews in every
theatre of war. 1t has been conVincN
ingly established that there are 9,000,-
900 Jews In the countries now involved
in the great war, and that the major
ity OF these people through no fault
of their own, are homeless, without
food, shelter or clothing, and that,
therefore they are In such immediate
need of relief that 1t behooves all
good citizens to hear this cry OF hu.
man suffering and distress. i
1t is the hope that at least $500 will
be realized in Fairmont. There is con-
siderable interest shown in this mat
ter locally. On Sunday morning the
pastors and recorts of the local
churchec will announce to- their conS
gregations the fact that Thursday has
been set aside as Jewish Relief Day.
Those who desire to contribute to
this aid may send their contributions
either to the Times for the. Jewish
Relief fund, or to Simon D. Goodman,
field director of the Jewish Relief
fund, of this city.
