to Work and Win.

win or lose the great vacation trip
offered by this paper. Promptly at
eight o'clock Saturday night, the
campaign will come to close and
some young lady will be declared the

upon the effort put forth during the
few remaining days, and this fact
is apparently realized by all parti-
cipants.
A Word to the Wise.
Remember 1T is easy to suffer sur
prise and defeat at the last minute.
Over confidence has lost more bat
ties than innate weakness. Even
though you should be safely in the
lead and did not meet with a sur
prise at the last, there is the double
trip which somebody is certain to
capture, and it might as well go to
you as any one else Each yearly
subscription turned in between now
and eight O'Clock Saturday night,
will earn from $4,000 to 21 900 votes
and a few of these may be all that
is necessary. Make a supreme ef-
fort and have the satisfaction of
knowing that you did your best right
up to the last minute.
To All Candidates.
The great educational tour that is
being offered is worth every effort
you have put forth or may put forth
until the close of the contest You

lea affords; will visit the most inter
esting cities in the country; will

pleasure of an ocean voyage; will
take a steamer trip on the historic
Potomac and Chesapeake Bay and
reyel in the joys of a daylight boat
trip up the beautiful and historic
Hudson River. You will meet inter
esting people; form new friendships.

SPECIAL SESSION UNLIKELY.
Iowa to Finance Liberty Loan Without
Calling Of legislature.

Des Moines, Aug. 25-It would be a
reflection upon the state Of Iowa to call
a special session of the legislature rel
alive to the financing Of the second lib
erty loan, in the opinion Of Governor
W. L. Harding.
Other states may find it necessary
to pass special legislation for the Sc
curing of the quota Of their loan, but
not Iowa." said the governor
He says that the loan in Iowa will
be taken care of without the workings
or advice Of the legislature.
Milton B. Pitt, speaker of the house
in the Thirty-seventh general assem-
bly,, who Is in the city, expressed it as
his belief that an extra session is a
remote probability.
There should be some definite plan
for prorating. the next liberty loan
among the free holders OF the state
who are capable of bearing it," said
Mr.. Pitt. =
THE governor has acted wisely in
not paying attention to the urgent re-
quests Of many in and outside the leg
islature to call a special session. II
such a session is called the members
should be patriotic enough to serve
without pay"

GARFIELD WARNS
NINE OWNERS THAT GOVERN
MENT is IN EARNEST.
WILL SEE TO IT THAT
CONSUMER GETS Benefit
Mex. Step to Be Taken Win Be Resu-
iations For RetaiIers-Lieenses May
BE Required-Lons HauIs May Be
Eliminated-G Government on Lookout
For Spurious Contracts.

Washington, Aug. 25.--Harry A. Gar
field, the governments new fuel admin
istrator, briefly discussed his new task
of administering government control
of the coal industry.
Il am going to see to it that all the
power of the law is utilized to enforce
the coal prices decreed by the presi-
dent and that the American consumer
will get the benefit he said.
Retail prices of both anthracite and
bituminous coal will be controlled as
well as wholesale and mine prices.
Something will be done soon to deter
mine the margin of profit which re-
tailers may charge in serving the pub
lie.
THE government will not allow itself
to be defeated by men setting up spur
ious or questionable coal contracts. No
unjustiflable contracts are DING to get
by. If I find anybody trying to put
over big contracts for the, purpose OF
lodging the new prices, I am going
after him.
May License Retailers.
The next step will be the drafting
of regulations to govern the issuance
of licenses to operators and dealers. 1t
may be necessary to extend the license
system to retailers.
Another thing is the ridiculously
long hauls that are sometimes resorted
to in the coal business. The practice
of sending Indiana coal to New nEg-
land and New England coal to Indiana
ought to be stopped. The work OF rem
edying such evils probably will fall up
Oh the priority board and its admins
traitor, Mr.. Lovett, but the coal admin
probably can help him out"
HOk greatest interest to the public
now in connection with the fuel control
plan, as demonstrated by letters and
kilograms coming to the president and
the trade commission, is what will be
done about regulating the retail prices
of coal, now that prices at the mine for
both bituminous and anthracite coal

Butte Men Warned,

Butte, Mont. Aug. 25.-W. II. Rod
gers. commissioner Of Cancellation of
the department of labor, arrived in
Butte late last night from Eli, New. Mr..
Rodgers, silent on his mission to Butte,
goes to Anaconda today.
Thomas Campbell and Joe Shannon,
leaders in the metal mine workers un-
lon of Butte, declared today they had
received notices carrying the numerals
"S-7-77," the vigilante signature found
on the body Of Frank Little, hanged
early this month by persons whose i'd
entity has not been ascertained. Many
prominent citizens Of Butte also receiv-
ed these threatening notes.
