NOT FIRST OFFENCE.
Mr.. Harris. as was stated at the

this county held i'm his own name
is approximately SS5 900 but his
total wealth is estimated various
~ from SIS. 900 to S4OO. 900.
So far as our records show his
contributions to war relief funds
have been nil. though we have
been Informed that year ago he
gave one dollar 10 the Red Cross.
He subscribed S25OO, TO the Third
liberty Loan and $1,000 to the
fourth loan. though both subscrip-

His refusals TO give even a pit
