VIOLATORS OF FOOD

Food Administrator Deems called

days ago and confronted him with evil
dence that he had sold flour in excess
and without substitutes. Mr.. Booming
admitted his guilt and voluntarily SUBJ

ordered his mill closed for five days.
The food administration will not tot.
crate violation of the rules and regu-
lations. Administrator Deems has is
sued the following notice:
ITO All, Millers Manufacturing and
Grinding Wheat for Wheat Flour: We
are in receipt of information to the
effect that millers in various parts Of
the state have received wheat from
farmers and have issued credit due
bills and are holding certain amount
Of flour for the farmers to receive as
they need 1t for their supplies.
This method Of holding flour for the
farmers in excess of the regular 30
days supply as delivered to them when
wheat is brought in, is a direct VIOLA
ton of the rules of the United States
food administration. Therefore any
credit due bills that you have supplied
to farmers must be Cancelled immedi-
ately by you and such flour must be
placed on the market in the regular
way for distribution wherever It is

is MISUNDERSTANDING Weyler, marquis

Esteban cOvertly appraised his SIS
ter's charms. but respecting her terror
Of Cobo he did not speak his thoughts.
He was certain, however, that Rosa
knew, as we'll as he, what motive lay
behind the fellows tireless persecu-
tions Of the valley dwellers; for, in
spite of their isolation, stories Of Cobo
had reached the refugees-stories that
had rendered both the boy and the girl
sick with apprehension. The colonel,
it seemed, had nearly died Of his
machete wound, and on recovering he
had sworn to exterminate the wasps
that had stung him. He had sworn
other oaths, too, oaths that robbed Es-
teban Of his sleep.
Esteban idolized his sister; her 10y
atty to him was the most precious thing
Of his life. Therefore, the thought Of
that swarthy ruffian hunting her down
as hound hangs to the trail of q doe
awoke in him terrible anger. Sec
ond only to his hatred for the guerrilla
chief was his bitterness against the
traitor, Pancho Cueto, who had capped
his villainy by setting this new peril
upon them; and since Rosa's safety
and his own honor called for the death
Of both men, he had sworn that some
how he would effect it. 1t was, Of
course, a difficult matter to get at the
colonel of volunteers, but Cueto still
lived in the midst Of his blackened
fields, and it was against him that the
boy was now planning to launch his
first blow.
The thought Of the hated Cobo had
momentarily distracted Esteban's
thoughts. Now he collected them and
said:
"Wait! am forgetting something.
See what Lacret's men handed me !;
they are posted from one end of the
island to the other He displayed a
printed bando, approximation, signed
by the new captain general, and read
as follows:
"All inhabitants of the country dis
tricts, or those who reside outside the
lines Of Notifications Of the towns,

the troops. Any individual found out
side the lines in the country at the e1-

cred rebel and shall be dealt with as

centration, the result Of which proved
to be without parallel in military his

so steep, that for a number Of years
past j. B. Eaton has permitted the
public to use a passway through an
adjoining lot. This passway is very
narrow and is cutting a deep chan
mel out around tenant house. Mr..
Eaton therefore saw fit to close this
passway but rendered the public
the necessary right of way to build
as good road as he was taking.
Mr.. Crabtree and others grasped
this opportunity to get good road

Nearly every day we are asked
by some one rs to when work will
be resumed on our road; and if it is
going to be built at all. To this we
answer we feel sure it will. The Fis-
cal Court is doing all in its power
to get things moving, but it is hung
up Just now waiting to see if Harris
& Myers, the old contractors, are
going to do the work. So far the
Court has been unable to here from
them. The road was to have been
completed Nov. l, 1917. The con-
tract provides that when work is
unnecessarily delayed, the Commits
sioner of Public Roads shall so no.
tify the Fiscal Court to this effect.
The Court is eager and anxious to
relet the work if Harris q Myers
are not going to do it. The fact
that road Commissioner Wiley has
not given our Court the necessary
notice to enable them to act, is the
sole reason now for the delay in re-
letting the work. Mr.. Wiley we are
sure is acting to the best interest
of the road as he sees it, but our
people are becoming impatient, and
will object to the collection of an
other years road tax unless more
work is done.
