KEEP OUT OF SALOONS!
No Place For Boys In Uniform, Says
unclA Sam


Chillicothe, GA military order at
Camp Sherman prohibits soldiers in
uniform from entering the saloons Of
Chillicothe. Before this order went
into effect, the soldiers could enter
the saloons, hut were prohibited from
drinking. In many OF these saloons
meals are served, and the boys would
cat in these places.
But there has been more or less Ii.
quor sold to the boys, as is natural.
and so the order was given that the
boys must keep out of the saloons.
This order applies to officers as well
as privates.
Liquor interests do not like the or.
der, claiming saloons furnish meals
at less cost than they can be pro
cured elsewhere and that the order
will work hardship. But this city will
see that food can be procured for as
little money outside of saloons rs
within them, and the order is meeting
with public approval

so THE PEoPLEM KNOW

The following appeared in the issue
of the Cheyenne Record last week:
"We understand people are wonder
ing why this paper did not publish the
Liberty Day program. Our only rea.
son is we were not furnished with q
copy"
II by the Liberty Day Program
the Record means the Dedication Day
program which was published in the
Cheyenne County News, the Kit Car.
son Herald and the Wild Horse Times
in the issues of last week and the
week previous, he makes deliberate
mis-. statement.
AS Chairman OF the National Coun-
Gil of Defense, Cheyenne Wells, Chey-
enne cwunty, l was requested to call q
meeting for April 6, for the purpose
of commeinorating entry Of the United
States into the great war. spoke to
Mrs. Hamilton and other ladies of the
local Red Cross chapter about the
matter and they agreed to make out n
program for that day. AS soon as
the program was completed ty ped it
off, making three carbon copies, one
of which was sect to tho Kit Carson
Herald, one to the Wild Horse Times
and one honded to Mr.. Bogert.
At the time of handing the copy of
the program to Mr.. Bogert told him
that 1 had written to the publishers of
the other papers telling them that if
they observed and had programs of
the day locally ] would, if they sent
me u coEy of their programs. insert
same in News. MIR. Bogert said that
il the other county papers sent him u
copy OF their programs he wculd pub
lish same in the Record, and natnr-
ally supposed that Mr. Bogert intend
ed to publish the program which lhad
hand d him, in the Recoid.
When the county papers were issued
April 4, l was much surprised to find
the program missing in the Record,
although it appeared in both the Kit
Carson and Wild Horse papers. The
Kit Carson Herald contained also the
program of IL local demonstration,
which was reproduced i'll the News of
April H. a"F
This is Il full statement OF the affair,
and Mr.. Bogert WAS furnished with

Washington Letter

l.
BY Edward Keating
Congressman from the third Colorado
istrict. rs
Within the next few weeks Con-
gress will so amend the espion-
age law that the authorities will
be able to deal expeditiously and
effectively with every phase Of
disloyalty. The existing law
seemed drastic when we enacted
it but the Department of Justice
finds it is defective in some par
ticulars, and Congress is now en-
deavoring to strengthen the weak
points. -~a. -...
It is not an easy task. We are
all agreed that traitors should be
shot. but while we punish the
guilty we must protect tho inno-
cent. While we suppress sedi-
tious utterances we must not
pena!ize honest, constructive
criticism. We must preserve
liberty at home while fighting
8 tyranny abroad. e..
Ibe!ieve Congress will frame
a bill which will accomplish these
things. l am sure the me;nte S
are consc;en'i)asly endeavoring
to do so and l am equally certain
that the president will not mis-
use the powers that Cong, css
will give him.
Spies and disloyal propagand.
lists will receive their deserts.
At the same lime the constituted
authorities will not tolerat. mob
rule. ...
The man who betrays the re-
public should be shot but the
shooting shoalu be done by Uncie
Sam and not by some hysterical
individual who thinks the process
of the iaw is too slow for him.
,. DISTRESSING CRIMES
Already many distressing crimes
have been committed in the sa-
cred name of patriotism. Color
ado has been particularly fortu-
nate, but other states have not
Jared so well. .4.m
Senator Sherman of Illinois re-
lated ore instance of misguided
patriniism on the floor of the Sen
ate the o:her day.
A boy from Hillsboro, Ills went
to East st. Louis and enlisted in
the Navy. He returned home.
the recruiting officer telling him
he would be called for duty in a
SuOEI thuc
tn. night Of his return some
one spread the story that an l.
w. w. had been seen to enter
the young recruits home. A mob
formed, went to the recruits
home and demanded admission.
The yourg man seeing the
angry faces of the vigilantes AZ
tempted to bar their entrance.
In desperation he seiz.d a gun
and fred into the crowd serious
ly wounding one man. This mad
deoed the mob and one of the
men ran around the hp1se to an
open window and fired point
blank at the recruit. " ,u.dins

the girls solicit funds and food
from people in town to which all
responded munificently and this
with that brought in by those
, from other sections was pace d
in the D. S. room. Coffee was
made and fruit bought and at
about 1890 dinner was served.
A little over three hundred were
served to dinner. Then all re-
paired to the high school rooms
where the high school or
chestra rendered two numbers,
the high school and visitors sang
a couple OF patriotic songs, a vo-
cal duet by Misses lola and Lulu
Lefingwell and a piano solo by
Mabel Fisk and a song by little
Harriette Kirke, of Kit Carson
which comp.e t ID tie program.
Then the fifth an | sixth grades
opened the contest, Mrs. Weir
pronouncing for tie sixth and
Miss Olive Nye of Kit Carson,
pronouncing for the fifth. They
spelled all the words for their re-
spective grades and there were
six left in each grade that had
not been spelled down. Then Il
new list of words was used and
when all was over IL was found
that Esther Williams from above
Arapahoe, Mis-; Petty teacher,
won the first prize and Murray
Dickson of Arapahoe, Mrs. Nc
Clasky teacaer won second.
In the sixth Donald Larson of
Cheyenne Wells, Mrs. Baber
teacher, was fist and Bsrnice
Dwyer from First View in the
eight grade, Mrs. Fleming teach
err. was second. II the seventh
and eighth grades cont, st M.
Curtis Of First View pronounced
for the seventh grade and Mrs.
Herrich of Arena, pronounced
the eighth. Gladys Sears of Chey

was first and Loota Williams,
Miss Petty teacher, won se,onc.
il tie seventh grade.
Jessis Williams, Miss Petty teach
er waa first and Blretta jones OF

er. was second. The col,esls
were lorg and We y sharp. IN
the seventh the grea. struggle
was between the ones that got
fl. st and second Eonors. This
was decidedly spirited contes-.
However in every grade tiiera
we're many that could spell prac
icaliy every word pronounced to
them. 1t would lie unjust to
mention any one grade or ini;vid-
ual except the winners 10: th,r.
were m any fine spoilers and they
fought hard to win. II ,wever
mention must be made of the
family Of W. E. Williams. There
were three children from this
family that entered tn ee differ
ent grades and they won two
first prizes and one second. quite
a record for one family. All coi.-
cerned in conducting the contest
wish to thank all .rh,t chnsri5us-
ed to the SUCCESS of the day. Ex-
cert for liberal c,n:riblsi,,s OF
food and money from the people

test couldn't have been held.

there was no foundation for the
report concerning the I. w. w.
; No such man had entered the re-
cruit's home and his relatives had
had nothing to do with that Or
ganization.
Other Senators related similar
stories. Invariably the trouble
was started by q rumor which
came from no one knew where
and which no one apparently
took the trouble to verify.
INJURING THE COUNTRY'S
| CAUSE.
It is possible that German pro-
pagandists are responsible for
these rumors, although there is
nothing at hand to sustain that
theory. However that may be.
it is agreed by thinking men tina.
our couatry's cause is being very
seriously injured by these exhi-
bitions of mob spirit. ta
They create unrest and discus,
sion at home and discredit us
abroad.
Those who talk of taking the
law into their own hands, CON-
plain that the constituted author
tiles have failed to act with prof.
er vigor. There is little founGss-
ton for this charge.
The federal government is
maintaining a tremendous force
of secret service agents and they
endeavor 10 run down every re-
port of disloyalty that reaches
them. The troIble is that most
of the clues furn shed by we'll
meaning citizens do not lead 10
any thing tangible. u,
For example:-take the ground
glass story. The papers have
carried scores cf articles telling
of the discovery of ground glass
in candy and various articles #
food. A; a rule the discovery
was reported a; having been
made in some army camp where
the miscreant hoped to kill the
soldier boys in training.
l have before me az off :ial re-
port which states that hundreds
OF these reports have been care
fully investigated by trusted gov
ernment agents and only one has
been verified. A baker in 1T.
Smith, Ark, wanted to iujure his
employers business SO he put
ground glass in the bread. No
one was seriously hurt bat the
newspapers ruined the employer
by printing sensational reports
CT the crime.
The 'p,isoned porus plaster ,
s,ory is ano'l er yarn w,ich bo s
up periodically. The secret S.
vice agents have spent much
time and energy on it but it, too
has proven d wlil-o. the wisp.
SANE COURSE TO PURSUE
Now the executive and Con-
gress are taking further steps TO
rcassure the public by strength
ening the law and enlarging the
secret service force. No one
wants to discourage patriots who
are on the alert to detect treason
hut it is necessary to issue eau
ton against hasty action.
The citizen who believes some
one has committed a disoly;l act
should quietly secure the facts
and, without any blare of trum-
phets. place them in the hands
of the peace off .ers of the county
state or nation. 1t is easy to
reach these authorities. If they
fail to act. three cent stamp
will enable the complainant to
appeal to some one higher up."

COMBINATION GATE IS HANDY
Barrier Of Original Design Is Con-
venient and Time-Saving-
Arranged for Hogs.

The cut herewith. shows n combina-
ton gate of my own design that
think is quite handy. convenient and
time saving. 1t is located between the
barnyard proper and the hog yards. 1t
is necessary to have large sliding
gate between the yards in order to
pass from one yard to the other with
team and wagon o. manure spreader,
writes ]. A. Saul of Hancock county,
Ohio, in Ohio Farmer. Also wanted
a place for the hogs to pass through
which / could open or close at will
Since there was only room for the
large gate and not wishing to weaken
It by cutting a hog door in 1t devised
this plan.
1t is easily constructed. Simply set
two posts three feet apart and bolt
two 2 by inch cross-pieces to them,
sne two feet or more il you
wish, above the one on the ground.
These must be notched as shown to
hold the gate where wanted. When
the gate Is in the notch ID, the hog
soor is open. In notch Il hog door is

morning. Four or five handfuls of
gruin--about pne-half pint-scattcrcd
in the litter will be sufficient for "a
flock of 20 to % hens. By handful is
meant rs much as can be grasped Ia
the hand, not what can be scooped up
in the open hand. BY scattering il In
the litter the hens will be compelled 10
scratch in order TO find the grain, and
in this way they get exercise which is
decidedly beneficial to them. If the
house is too small I" feed in, tho grain
can be scattered on the ground ont
side. A good grain mixture for this
purpose is composed of equal parts ny
weight of feeding wheat, cracked corn
and oats. Another suitable grain mix
ture would be two parts by weight OF
cracked corn and one part oats.
Have Dry Mash Accessible.
In addition to the grain and the
table scraps, 1t is well to feed dry
mash. This dry mash is composed OF
various ground grains and is placed
in a mash hopper or box from which

MAINTENANCE OF EARTH ROAD
Same Principles Of Drainage Apply to
Clay Roads-keep Pipe Line and
bitches Open.

The same principles Of drainage as
apply to the earth roads should apply
to the sand-clay roads. The sslnd-clay
roads are usually located by an engi-
neer before they are built, and in this
event they are constructed on a grade
and with proper provisions for drain
age, it remains for the maintenance
force to see that the pipe lines and
bitches are kept open. The surface Of
the sand-clay road requires continual
attention and 1t should be dragged at
ter every rain or wet spell; it should
not be allowed to deteriorate and blow
away.
AS this class Of roads Is more expen-
sive than the earth roads are, so is
their maintenance more expensive. but.
on the other hand, the service that
they give Is much more satisfactory
than that of the earth roads. The
communities through which they run
are usually more enlightened and pro-
gressive than those on the earth roads,
and therefore are more able and will
ing to bear the maintenance cost.
