south OF Rocky Ford in the cahons
that vigilante committee has been
formed and a night guard has been
put over the range where most of the

cattle men have been missing stock
in small numbers and have found evil

This message il one of several

ing in 1918.
So far the nation has borne the n
nancial burden of the war well, says
Secretary McAdoo, owing to healthy
business conditions. and the valuable
aid Of the established federal reserve
system. In the future, however. in

must be developed by individuals and

clares, and business as usual can.

ciple Of the war. People must save
and invest In government securities
to avoid postponing victory.
With this admonition, Mr.. McAdoo
proceeds to cite the enormous figures
of government receipts and expendt
lures which are the fruit of war
times.
Total estimated receipts for the
current fiscal year are $12.5Sv.732, 800,
which, with a balance in the treasury

Our laws denounce bribery, but who

The commercial voter wants pay for his

of these respects. Often while he de-

Prohibit payment to any watcher or
