honors in the second day Of the

TOO GOOD TO PASS UP.

THE Bulletin is partisan, but there
is limit to it's endorsement of efforts
to hamper democrats in the natural
bent of their political endeavors. Our
sympathy goes out to Harry Brolaski,
former mayor of Rodonda Beach, CAL,
now under arrest charged with con-
spiracy to violate the Volstead act.
He indignately demands to know II
any crime had ben committed in the
withdrawal of fifty-one barrels OF
liquor from bond for the purpose OF
refreshing the delegates to the demo-
cratic national convention When one
keeps in the minds eye mental pic
ture of the controlling element at the
San Francisco convention Boss
Murphy with his Tammany horde, OF
Boss Bennan and his Chicago bunch OF
roughnecks, of Boss Taggart of Lick
Springs notoriety and his following,
of Boss Nugent who repeatedly in an
nouncing New Jerseys vote gave it as
so many votes wet, "a matter of
fifty-one barrels of booze dwarfs to
the insignificance of mere sampler.
Crime, Mr.. Brolaski? No; The deed

latter-day martyr, for greater love
hath no democrat than this that he lay
down his liberty that Bosses Murphy

several months; nevertheless his sud-
den passing was a severe shock to his
many friends here. The remains were
accompanied back to his old home in
Massachusetts by his sister Miss
Maria, and burial will be made there.
Mrs. Stanley Evans and son John
had very narrow escape from serious
injury last week, when telephone
pole fell across the road and struck
the car in which Mrs. Evans and son
were riding. Without any warning or
evidence of danger the pole broke Oft
at the ground and struck the car d.
rectly on the wind shield, causing
glass to fly in all directions and Sc
verely cutting the occupants. A small
fragment of glass lodged in Johns eye
which was later successfully removed
and aside from minor scratches and
glass cuts, as we'll as severe shakina

The car was badly wrecked.

DODGE BROTHERS CARS TO
REMAIN AT SAME PRICE

Official confirmation of press dis
patches from Detroit, announcins
that there would be no reduction in
the price of Dodge Brothers Motor
cars, has been received by B. A. Thay-
er Auto company, the Dodge Brothers
dealers in this city A telegram from
c. w. Matherson, acting general sales
manager, to the local dealer, reads:
Dodge Brothers policy has ever
been to give full value for the price
asked. There will be no reduction In
the present prices of Dodge Brothers
motor cars. Newspaper reports to the
contrary are absolutely untrue"
Dodge Brothers announcement was
no surprise to u.s." said Mr.. Thayer.
I'm fact it is only substantiation or
Dodge Brothers business principles.
At no time have they ever demanded
an excess amount for their product.
AS in the past, they will continue in
the future to demand fair return for
their efforts.
THE mere fact that the demand for
Dodge Brothers motor cars is still
greater than the supply despite the
great expansion program at the fac
tory, has absolutely nothing to do with
the decision to continue the present
prices. In marketing their car Dodge
Brothers have never made point Of
price and will never sacrifice the
quality of their product to enter price
competition "-Okanogan Independent.

IN BUSINESS FOR YOUR HEALTH

And it is your business. You are a

hardly an adult in the county but has
had tuberculosis at some time. You
probably have had it. A neighbor may
have it now. One in every twenty men
in the draft were rejected for tubercu-
losis. OF those accepted $4,000 were
discharged from the camps because OF
the disease.

VIM. OConnor, the democratic can
didate for prosecuting att )rney, was
a visitor in town Tuesday circulating
among the citizens in the interest OF
his candidacy. Mr.. O'Connor is a capa-
BILE attorney, most likeable genIle-
man and his Americanism will assay
100 per cent. Should he be elected he
will make an able and active prosecu-
tor, who will exercise economy in the
management of his office as well as
give the county most efficient service.
Personally he strikes us as being an
individual whom one would like better
the longer one knows him.
That popular old timer Frank Nit
chell, who is running for commission
err from the 3rd district, may be a
democrat, but he is an American, ev-
cry fat inch of him, and everybody
knew how he stood during the war,
when there were a number of resi-
dents of this county whose loyalty
was questionable. The American peo-
pie have a bad habit of forgetting
but those of us who sweat blood Tor
Is months while their dear ones were
facing death in France are not so liza
BILE to forget in so short a time after
that experience.
What's one mans meat is another
mans poison. The heavy rains of last

shape as to almost insure bountiful
crops for next year, while that same
moisture has worked a hardship on
those who had alfalfa down and also
the tomato growers.
