BRYAN'S HAIR CUT IN 's2
Ears Built For Efficiency Rather Than
Beauty, He Admits.

William J, Bryan at last has ex-
planned the existence of the fringe
of erayine hair that has formed q
halo.like circle around his head for
nearly two.score years, The other
day Mr.. Bryan told the secret of
his flowing locks and admitted that
his hair was cropped for the last
time in 1882.
AT that time, Bryan explained he
was engaged to the woman who is
now his wife. His haircut nearly
Cancelled the engagement, all be.
cause his ears are built on a eener-
GUS pattern and for efficiency rather
than beauty,
Since that time Mrs, Bryan has
insisted that the offending ears be
safely tucked away behind flowing
locks.

I'D. Paden of Richwoods town.
ship, who has announced his can
didacy for county judge, has resid-
ed in Sharp county for the past
half a century, and therefore has
an intimate acquaintance in all Sec
tions of the county. He is known
as an honorable man and upright
citizen, as true as steel to his word
and to his friends. He is a man of
mature years, vast experience and
deliberate judgment, firm in his
convictions of right and duty and
is not easily moved by every pass.
ing whirlwind of sentiment.
MIR. Paden now resides on a farm
near Ash Flat, and has been a tiller
of the soil all his life. He has al
ways voted the democratic ticket
and worked continuously for the
success of his party as a private in
the ranks, never having held a
county office.
Mr.. Paden served several years
as a justice of the peace, and in
that capacity familiarized himself
with much of the law that should
be known by the county judge. He
is man of progressive ideas, and
it can be predicted for him that
the county would take no backward
step under his administration. Mr..
Paden is worthy man, competent
to ill the office he seeks, and the
Record presents his candidacy for
the candid consideration of those
who participate in the approaching
primaries.

nlS0N IN TREASvRER'S RACE
IN Entry In County Politics Has
Splendid Qualifications.

Charles W. Wilson of Richwoods
township; who last week announced
BIZ condidacy for county treasurer,
hao never held a county position
end never before sought one, hav-
int always been content to affiliate
with the democratic party in a
moro modest capacity. He is now
10 middle life, was reared in the
Calamine section on a farm, but
Tor 4 number Of years has resided
q Ash Flat. He is a very popular
citizen there, having the full conf.
dence and esteem Of all the people
Of that section.
M Wilson is thoroughly equipped
q measure up to the responsible
e'ee q the treasurer's Office. His
welI known energy and native hon
esty would insure the office to be
10 saie hands, and his recognized
ability in business way would be
Q ouarantee that the affairs of the

FOR SHERIFF and COLLECTOR
,er Public Official Would Again
Serve The People.

The latest entry into the race Tor
diff and collector is William y.
smith of Washington township.
We should guess that there are
very few, if any, men who have a
more extensive personal acquaint-
snce over Sharp county than has
this gentleman, He was a public
.aarvant for four years, having held
liz sheriff's office that length OF
lima, and his record is public prop
erty. Nothing that we might say
would add to or detract from the
merits of the record Of any public
officer, but, as the official record OF
Nj. Smith has been much discussed
In this county, we can do no less
than express our complete faith IN
liz honesty of purpose and intent.
This county has not had a public
Official who would do more to ac'
commodate the public, and in this,
as Is quite often the case, he was
tha loser and the only party who
suffered.
n this somewhat plain statement
X fact the Record Is making no
opology for Mr.. Smith or charging
hin with any ineficiency whatever.
He Is amply able and willing to
afake care of himself and his public
record on the campaign, and we
predict that he will have some in
tefestine things to say when the
candidates take to the stump.
Z Nj. Smith is a good man, and
'thc Experience he has had in the
cherifrs office should add to his
quall6cations to again fill that Of
A. He has very many friends in
I N parts Of the county who will no
dopbt give him loyal support in the
6o1I|bg contest.

FEDERAL ACT ID CONTROL PACKERS

Chairman Sims of Interstate
 Commerce Commission, Says President Favors This Action at Once
Rr Revlew Leased wlrel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Legisla- ton designed to carry into effect the recommendations of the federal trade commission to President Wilson that the government regulate the meat packing industry, was introduced in the house today by Chairman Sims of the interstate commerce committee.
 Mir Sims said the measure was sent to him by the president with the re- quest that every effort be made to en- act it at this session of congress. He said he assumed that the measure was prepared by the department of justice and added that before offering it he had conferred with the federal trade commission regarding it's provisions
 The bill provides that the president, at his discretion. may acquire and ope- rate certain facilities of the packers, including stock yards. cold storage and freezing plants and all cattle and all refrigerator cars; acquire them for the government and license their ope- ration, or without acquiring these fa- cilities to place the meat packing in- dustry under a system of direct fed eral license.
 In its report to the president, made public August at the White House, the federal trade commission recom- mended government acquisition and control of stockyards, cold storage plants and warehouses and cattle and refrigerator cars in order 10 destroy monopoly which it declared Swift & Co.,, Armour & O., Morris & Co.,, Will son & Co, Inc, and the Cudahay Pack ing company exercised not only over the country,s meat industry, but other necessary food supplies.
