ATLANTA, Ga, June 11.-A promni

search of a negro washwoman. She
went into a street occupied by negroes
and stopped at a rather nice looking

Nom, | don't believe | do" re.
piled the negro woman.
Conditions certainly are getting
bad in regard to colored help, aren't

Huh" replied the negress, 81 reckon
dey is, and it's going to get worse.
When the Germans win de war the

In this connection it is interesting
to note that DR. Issac J. Lansing, of
Ridgewood, n j., has been sent tt
bhe south by the National Security

states to offset the German propag-
anda among the negroes.

BLIND TIGERS PAYING
LIGHT FINES In ATLANTA

ATLANTA, Ga, June 11.-That
blind tigers are doing big and Flour
ishing business in Atlanta under a
system of light fines in the city cri
minal court that amounts practically
to the payment of regular license, is
charged by Rev. j. w. Ham,. the
crusadng paster of the Baptist Taber-
nacle, who has launched a movement
to secure an amendment to the city
charter of Atlanta authorizing the
recorder to impose fines as high as
$1,000 for violations of the prohib
ton law.
DR.. Ham asserts that the police autho-
rites are doing their duty well in
running down blind tigers and making
cases against them, and that they are
given the heaviest fines in recorders
Court that the law authorizes, but
these fines are not heavy enough to
stop the illicit traffic in liquor, and the
city court is letting the blind tigers
so with light fines which they can well
afford to pay.
DR.. Ham further charges that blind
tigers are selling whiskey to officers
and soldiers in practically all of the
hotels, and that pool rooms are regu-
lar nests for blind tigers which should
be cleaned out by closing all pool
rooms for the duration of the war.

Why "Doughboys"

A doughboy is an American SOL
der, and American soldiers, infan-
trymen, artillerymen, medical depart
ment, signal corps sharps, officers
and men alike, all are called dough-
boys. Our cartoonist is one, so is
General Pershing.
The term "doughboys" dates back
to the Civil War when army wit was
aroused by large globular brass but
tons on infantry uniforms. Some
body Che must have been sailor)
dubbed the buttons "doughboys" be-
cause they reminded him Of the
boiled dumping of raised dough
served in ships mess and known to
all sailors as doughboys. Originally
it referred only to an enlisted infan-
tryman, but A. e. F.. applies it to
all branches and all grades of the
service.-The Stars and Stripes.

our brave troops must be maintained

America Will Do Her Duty

And now the slogan is: Food
will win peace" the right kind of
peace, for the starving millions of
Europe. Unless they can secure food
during the coming hard months of
winter, the horrors of the long war
will pale before the miseries and
chaos and anarchy and the harvest
of famine and sickness to follow up
on the silence of the guns.
1t was the high privilege and good
fortune of Uncle Sam to deliver the
decisive punch that stretched Prus-
sian militarism fiat on the ground.
1t is the duty of America to feed the
world during the period of disorder
and commissions and general want
that will precede a final readjustment
of national rebirth in Europe and in
ternational relations. AS America
did not fail as savior of the liberty
of the world, neither will she fail as
the good Samaritan to stricken and
bleeding humanity.

BOYS in S. A. 7. c.
STILL in TRAINING
Expect to Be Discharged December IA

None of the boys who entered the
Students Army Training Camps have
returned home yet. 1t was thought
they would be here this week, but on
account of certain blanks being miss
ing they are still detained at the
universities and colleges where they
were training.
Among the boys who went from
Stevens county into the S. A. T. C.
we're Ralphel O'Brien at Creighton
University, Omaha; Herbert Keller
at the University of Minnesota;
Howard Mumbleau, John Mankey
and Harold Vinje at the School of
Engineering, Milwaukee, and Don
aid B. Lord, Edmond Hanrahan and
Harold -Lund at the University of

1t is expected that the boys will
be discharged the end of the week
and all should be home by Christmas
The discharged men will be per-
mitted to wear their uniforms three
months after they have been demob-
ilized. The men have not received
their entire equipment to date but it
is understood that the shirts and hats
which have already arrived will be
distributed soon. Complete uniforms
will be issued each man before he is
discharged.
Arrangements are under way so
that all the soldiers may stay in the
barracks up to the Christmas vaca-
ton in case they are demobolized be-
fore that date.
Every man will be obliged to I'M
dergo a physical examination to de-
termine whether he has suffered any
serious physical defects while in the
service. DR.. Merton Field, the unit
physician, will conduct the examina-
ton as soon as the necessary forms

MACHINERY DETAILED
TO RECOUNT DRY VOTE
Contest on Liquor Amendment to
Proceed Following Order Of
Court

The machinery for recounting the
votes cast at the election November
s. was detailed this week in an
order by Judge Dickinson of Henne-
pin county district court. The order
was issued upon the petition Of S. r.
Van SAINT, David P. Jones, and G. N.
Chadbourn, dry leaders, who are con-
testing the announced result of the
vote on the proposed constitutional
dry amendment, which, according to
the state canvassing board, failed to
receive the required majority of all
votes cast at the election.
The order directs that all pink bal
lots, on which amendment votes were
cast, all state ballots, and all county
ballots, be forwarded by county audi
tors throughout the state to Julius
A. Schmahl, secretary of state. Ex-
ceptions are made in the cases of
Hennepin and Ramsey county, where
the votes will be recounted at the
court houses.
The recount will be made by three
sets of three inspectors each, accord
ing to the order. Each party-that
is, the wet organization and the dry
anizations-selects one inspector
in each set, and the two so chosen in
each set select the third, all subject
to the approval of the court.
Provisions are made for clerk to
assist the inspectors. Five days are
allowed the contestants in which to
serve on county auditors the order
to forward the ballots, and on the
way to the statehouse the ballots will
be surrounded by safeguards provid-
ed in the order.
The expenses of the recount are
guaranteed by the contestants, who
have deposited with the secretary Of
state $1,000, in addition to 500 al
ready deposited to pay transporta-
tion charges on the ballots.
Inspectors are to work not less
than six hours day, and to receive
five dollars day for their services.
Lists of inspectors will probably
be submitted to Judge Dickinson
within a few days.

Shoe Program Stopped by Peace

The classification OF and price re-
duction on shoes as a war measure
will not go into effect as planned by
the War Industries Board, the ruling
requiring such steps having been
suspended Immediately following the
signing of the armistice.
This information was received by
the Public Safety Commission this
week and given to the public. The
shoe program having been limited to
the period of the war it is recon-
mended that the pledge and window
card system, the stamping of shoes,
their classification and price limita-
lions be stopped but that the general
conservation program, that is, the
voluntary reducing by the manu-
facturers of the number of styles,
co1ors of leather, etc., be permitted
to continue through the spring sea-
son of 1919.
