SAVE A LITTLE.

Every man who is obliged
tC work for his living should
make it point to lay up a
little money for that rainy
day. which we are all liable
to encounter when least ex-
pected. The best way to do
this is to open an account
with a savings bank. Ac-
cumulated money is always
safe; it is always ready to
use when needed. Scrape
together a few dollars, make
your first deposit, receive
your hank book, and then
resolve to deposit a given
sum, small though it be,
once a month, or once
week, according to circum-
stances. No body knows
without trying it how easy
thing it is to save money
when an account with a
bank has once been opened.
With such an account a man
feels a desire to enlarge his
deposit. 1t gives him a les
son in frugality and econo-
my, weans him from habits
of extravaganza and is the
very best guard in the world
against intemperance, dis
sipation, and vice.
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1919-10-04

did not agree to it for the reason
that l believed the purposes behind
the proposition were entirely polltl-
cal, and that you aimed at the per-
petuation of your boards member
ship in power for three to seven
years TO come. This part of your
proposed bill reads as follows:
Quotes Thompson Statute-Worried
BY Extravaganza.
THAT the Board of Commits
sioners of the state shall ap-
point the respective members of
the Board of Commissioners of
the Port of New Orleans, one
for term of three years, one
for q term of four years, one
for term of six years, and one
for term of seven years, and
may designate and prescribe the
term of office Of the present
Board in accordance herewith"
That last part of the foregoing
paragraph contains the joker to
which refer. The Interpretation Of
that expression would, in my opin-
ion, be held by the courts to mean
that l should appoint the individual
members, respectively, Of your board,
to the terms Of office mentioned in
the quoted paragraph.
At the time you brought the said
proposed statute to me, | was already
worried over the extravaganza and
feeblenass of your board in a bust
ness way, and l thought it better
not to run the risk Of having to per-
petuate it in power. Still, | did not
wish to dismiss it at that time with
out giving it further opportunity TO
retrieve itself. l desired to worry
along with you as best l could, and
administration, consider the policy
outlined in your proposed statute.
Expects Revenge for Lifting Political
Embargo.
Many people, and newspapers, such
as the Daily States, are of the err
roneous opinion that the law already
fixes The term of member of the
board. This is not true. A mem
Der holds his position at the pleas
ure of the governor, and may be re-
moved at any time, or may serve fifty
years or more, if he is not disturbed
by the governor, death or otherwise.
When asked for the resignation of
a previous board, there was no out
cry. When l asked for your resig-
nation, there were protests made in
certain quarters, and there is no
doubt that there will be loud lamen-
tations and fierce denunciations of
me from many of the same sources
as l continue to lift the embargo on
political independence, financial gen.
crosby, and commercial sympathy in
the city of New Orleans.

Springfield, Ill, March 26.-Gov-

his signture today to the bill of
Senator Edward J. Hughes of Chi
cago, permitting unregistered SOL
diers, sailors and marines to vote
at the April election provided they
were in military service within 80
days prior to the election
The senate yesterday concurred
in minor house amendments to the
bill which was placed in the hands
of the attorney-general this morn
ing for legal scrutiny.
Governor Lowden has said he
would sign the bill if it is pronounc-
ed constitutional by Attorney-Gen-
eral Brundage. 1t was rushed
through both houses with an
emergency clause and encountered
no opposition.
Amendments added by the house
were intended to defeat any at
tempts to fraud by requiring ade-
quate safeguards, and provided that
the force Of the statute be spent
within sixty days after demobiliza-
ton of Illinois troops is completed.
Thousands of soldiers, sailors
and marines are said to be affected

KETCHUM FOUND
AS NOT GUILTY
Judge Dietz Says Charge for Dis
tributing HandbilIs Is
Unreasonable.

James Ketchum, Socialist, who
was arrested on Feb. 10 for dis
tributing handbills on the streets Of
Moline, was not guilty of the
charge, because his arrest under
the circumstances was in violation
OF his constitutional rights. This
decision was handed down by Judge
C.. o. Dietz of the Moline city court
yesterday afternoon.
Ketchum was found guilty in the
Moline police court on the same
charge. The Socialists appealed the
case to Judge Dietz's court Here
after, Chief Ben DeJaeger said, no
more arrests will be made under
the amendment to the bill distrib-
uting ordinance.
Judge DietZ's decision that the
charge was unreasonable and void
" as based on the stipulations made
by both the city and the Socialists
when they appealed the case. This
stipulation, as agreed upon by
James Johnston, city attorney, and
a Rockford attorney brought here
by the Socialists, was that Ketch-
UNI had distributed but eight or
ten bills; that no one objected and
that there was no interference with
traffic or other trouble.
There's no question, but what
the distribution Of handbills might
in some cases warrant regulation
that would almost amount to pro-
said Judge DietZ. There
are three circumstances that justify
regulation: The distribution OF
bills may form probable cause OF
fire, or they may brighten horses,
or such distribution may litter
streets and block sewers.
"All conditions ordinarily In.
volved in regulating bill distrtbu-
ton are negatived by the stipula-
ton. There's nothing before this
court to show the character OF the
place where the distribution &C
CURED.
There is no question but what
the council has the right to regu-
late the distribution OF bills. 1t
wouldn't be unreasonable to pro
hibit distribution of bills on, for in
stance, the streets in the loop OF
Chicago where traffic is exceeding
" heavy. But the power given to
cities by the state must be reason
ably exercised and where an ordi-
nance is valid the application must
be reasonable"
Judge Dietz declared that the
constitution gives every man the
right to life. liberty and happiness
and that this right includes the
right to advertise his business or
advocate his political principle II
those principles do not urge riot
or destruction of the principles on
which the constitution is founded.

mot PERMITTED
| To Be CITIZEN
Erick Erickson Is Barred From Be-
coming Naturalized, United
States Examiner States.

Cancellation of the declaration of
intention filed by Erick Erickson,
l125 Fifth avenue, Moline, was or
dered today by Fred ]. Schlotfeldt,
chief United States naturalization
examiner. The Moline city court
was requested to bar Erickson from
ever becoming an American citi-
zen.
The naturalization examiner ex-
plains that Erickson had appealed
to Washington authorities for ex-
cmption from military service on
grounds that he was an alien. He
was released from the draft. This
evidence has been presented to the
Moline city court.
Erickson is a native of Sweden.
On Oct. 81, 1916, he filed his first
citizenship papers in the Moline
city court. When drafted a year
ago he sought aid from the district
board and then later appealed to
President Wilson.
The citizenship papers were for
warded from the Chicago Office to
the naturalization bureau. 1t is
believed the exemption papers were
also forwarded to the naturaliza-
ton headquarters.
This is the first case of this kind
TO come up before Judge G. o. Dietz
of the Moline court.
