NEGROES RIOT IN PITTSBURG
SAME IF HARDING is ELECTED

The belligerency of the negroes
living in the large cities was again
demonstrated in a riot involving a
thousand persons here on Dinwiddle
street and Center avenue because a
white man jostled negress walking
across the street. He was set upon
by a score Of negroes. The battle
then became a free for-all, in which
both negroes and whites Joined, and
the police charged the mob. They
managed to get four persons and
took them to Center Avenue Police
Station. The black mob then re-
turned and charged the prison, but
a group Of reserves and firemen
routed the attackers.
Pittsburg is one Of the cities
which contains negro newspapers
urging race equality, and there is 1T
tie doubt that this press campaign
is inflaming colored population.
II has been said that Harding has
promised equality with no segrega-
ton laws i'm Washington, d. c., if
elected, and this means a spread to
other states and probably an attempt
to bring about the same condition
on the country. Can you read the

POPULATION or UNITED
STATES los, 683, 1903

The 1920 population of continent
tai United States was announced
last Friday by the Census Bureau
as 105,6s3,1Os. This was an in
crease of 13,71O,s42, or 14.9 per
cent since 1910.
Fridays total does not include the
populations Of outlying possessions,
which will be announced as soon as
the figures Of Alaska and the mill
tary and naval services abroad are
tabulated. 1t is estimated, however,
that those possessions have 1885,
600 inhabitants, so the total number
Of people living under the American
flag is in round Numbers. 11S,000,-
900.
The figures for continental United
States compare with 91,972, 266 ten
years ago and 75,994,575 90 years
ago. The increase for the last de-
cade, however, fell 2,265,S49, or 81
per cent below that Of the preceding
decade.

EDUCATIONAL TOOTH TALKS
Broken Plates Repaired

Well equipped dental offices can
now repair plates and bridges. A
broken tooth is no reason why a
plate should be discarded. A new
tooth, or several Of them can be
vulcanized onto the old plate and
make the service absolutely as good
as ever. New facings can be put on
bridges; bridges can be repaired or
heightened; crowns can be reset and
other numerous repairs can be made
that will save much in time and
money and add greatly to your COM
fort and attractiveness. If you meet
with an accident that Injuries your
plate i'm any way. consult your dem
fist about repairs before you discard
it for a new one. You can often pre-
vent needless expense.-Dr. Fl. M.

PROTECT CORN AND
WHEAT FROM INSECTS

Every year insects do millions Of
dollars worth of damage to stored
grain and grain products. Some au-
thorities have placed this injury at
5 per cent of all stored grain. The
Department Of Entomology Of the
College of Agriculture recommends
that all bins and grainaries should
be thoroughly cleaned and disinfect-
ed before any wheat or corn is placed
in them for winter storage. All old
grain should be removed and burned.
The walls, floors and ceilings should
be thoroughly cleaned and a liberal
application Of airs Stacked lime
should be placed in the corners and
edges of the bin. but be sure and re-
move this lime before placing the
grain in the bin. Carbon-bisulphide
is one Of the most convenient fumi-
giants for use in bins and grainaries
The amount of this liquid to be used
will depend upon the temperature,
size and shape Of the bin, its tight
ness and the insect to be controlled.
Where the bins can be made COM
paratively alright a pound of car
bon bisulphide to 1000 cubic feet
where the temperature is around 60
to 20, will usually be sufficient. In
other words, pound of this solu-
tom to 80 bushels of grain. This
fumigant can be placed in shallow
pans at the top of the bin and will be
found a very effective means of
keeping down insects which annual
ly cause so much damage. This ma
terial is highly inflamable and ex-
plosive, so that no fire or light, even
electric, must be used near the gran
aries while this disinfecting is being
carried on.

merit on any complaint that may be
filed attacking their reasonableness.
This makes total raise of rs
per cent this year. A IL 1-2 per cent
raise already has been made, but
this new increase applies to the ex-
listing rates.
The company alleged before the
commission that it lost $21, 000, 900
in 1919. To take care of this it was
allowed to increase rates IL 1-2 per
cent. Out Of gross business Of
$4G0, 100000 it's net profits were
$1,O94, 2S1, or 8 per cent of its cap
ital stock.
Wage increases allowed by the ad-
iustment board confront it with a
deficit of $42,OOO,OOO, it was said.
New arrangements with the railroads
and the 13 1-2 per cent increase. it
was stated, will meet this wage
award.

Toledo Woman Has
Gained Il Pounds
Was Restored to Health Three Years
Ago by TanIac, and Still
Feels Fine

One Of the latest to testify to the
merits Of Tanlac is Mrs. George
Kerns, Of 719 Western avenue, To-
ledo, Ohio, who in a recent state
ment reported a gain Of 81 pounds
and that although it has been three
years now since the medicine re-
stored her health and built her up
so wonderfully, she is still feeling
fine.
'T have the best of reasons" said
Mrs. Kerns, "for saying that Tanlac
has real merits for it has been three
years since it relieved me of my
troubles and built me up so won
derfully and I am still enjoying good
health.
'For nearly two years before /
took Tanlac I had suffered from
stomach trouble and disordered kid
neys. NV palms at times were almost
unbearable and while I tried ever so
many different kinds Of medicines,
nothing did me any good. / had no
appetite scarcely and what little I
did manage to eat only made trouble
for me. NV back and sides panied
me constantly and I had fallen off
until I was hardly more than a
frame.
''When I started on Tanlac I only
weighed ninety eight pounds and
just felt perfectly awful. But I had
not been taking it very long when I
began to feel better and when I got
on the scales after finishing my
seventh bottle I found I had actu-
ally gained twenty-seven pounds,
having gone up to one hundred and
twenty-fiv My stomach and kid
neys have never troubled me in the
least since that time. In fact, have
enjoyed the best of health all the
while. My husband and little son
have been complaining of being run
down and no appetite this winter.
but after taking Tanlac the results
are they are both wonderfully i'm
proved. 1t just seems that my son
can't get enough to eat and is simp-
ly bubh,ing over with new life and
energy. We all think there is no med
icine like Tanlac. 1t has been such
great benefit to the whole family
that 7 never expect to be without a
bottle in the house."

New Britain herald., 1920-02-06

1913 the obsolete syst enl of trial of eases before justices of the peace in New Britain was abolished by trans ference of the power to the city court. Under Judge Meskill the city court of the city of New Britain, on both it's civil and criminal sides, developed a reputation and a chara cter that be- came well and favorably known throughout the county and state.
 He had a thorough knowledge of the principles and theory of the law. He ever kept himself abreast with the new and changing views, but holding fast to that which was good in the old. While he knew the letter of the law, his interpreta ton and adninis- tration was the spirit of the law. Here was demonstrated his abundance of common sense. His ambition and delight was to do justice among his fellow men. Simple, clear rulings upon questions of evidence, cleaning out any rubbish, were given with un- erring precision. He had uncomm on insight into human nature. and thus was enabled to make prompt and ready decisions for he quickly de- tected truth, evasion, equivecation, falsehood and perjury.
 The honor of his profession gave him a pride in his work. Knowing so well the frailties of weak, erring mortals, he was patient and lenent, but he was severe 10 those who will fully followed evil paths and ways of wick edness. Sham, or pretense, or hypocrisy, was obnoxious 10 him, but honesty. straig forV ardn ess and ma nfulness had his respect and ad- mira ton.
 He was man of deeds, not words. His Conscience. burnished in action, was sensitive, pure and true
 He viewed his felloW-lavyers with affectionate regard and esteem. He never Wearied of rendering offices Of

kindness and consideration. For the young in the profession he had kindly ear and a sympathetic voice. His sincerity commanded respect ana obedience. No words of reproach, or scorn, or derision, were ever uttered concerning his judgments. If 8 de- cision was severe. it was due; If lenl- ent. il was respected. He was inc just Judge diSnifying the office which dignited him.
 He loved the compa nionshlp and association of his felloW-membe bers at the bar and his fellow-citizens. He loved his native city with love that made him jealous of it's honor. His reputa ton and character for worth. integrity, loyalty. square dealing and well doing made him admired and secured for him the appreciation and affection of men.
 The mystery of his departure in- creased the shock of his loss to this community. By his life, his words, and his acts, in his private and pub lie life, he obtained for himself the best of all earthy rewards, the love and esteem of his fello citizens.
 RESOLVED: That a copy of this minute be spread upon the records of the City Court of the City of New Britain and that a copy be trans mitted to the family of our deceased brother, James T. Meskill.

HARDING GIVES
HIS ATTITUDE
ON PRESIDENCY
Says He is Determined to
Guard Against ''Clamor
and Abuse"

Marion. Ohio, Sept. "A deter
mination to guard against
clamor, insincerity and abuse" in
his campaign for the presidency
was expressed BY Senator Harding
today in a talk to a marine band
which serenaded his residence dur
ing . visit here on recruiting duty.
The nominee said he felt it duty
to be tolerant of those who differ
with him and not to drag the at
tention Of the people Into the
mire."
Il assume your coming here"
said Senator Harding, is due in
large part to the fact that l am
candidate for the presidency. 1t is
because I feel more deeply about it
every day 1 want to tell you
American citizens and through
you, as many Americans as pos
sible-my idea of the responsible
tiles of a candidate for the highest
Office the people can bestow.
Il have said to myself: You owe
it to the citizens of America to pre-
serve the attitude and the mind of
one who serves as we'll as he can.
"As l see it. I must not drag the
attention Of the American people
into a mire when it is their whole
hearted desire that their attention
should be centered upon the prob
lens which we all wish 70 face
bravely and wisely and together.
las l see it, if / were to stoop to
inseeerity, TO mere clamOr. to
political expediency. to appeals to
special classes, l would be failing
in that purpose which I'trust shall
always be mine; not my own in
terest; not even the interest of my
party first, but America first"

Hist was having too much freedom.

johnson was out automobile riding
are false" said Poole. He is not
allowed outside of the Jail. He
boxes a little in his cell but he puts
on no prizefights for galleries of
spectators.
"If they think Jack is having it
too easy in Geneva l would not OBJ
ject to his being taken somewhere
else. The number of people trying

rides in the country near Geneva
are fictitious and originated by
some one who finds he can not see
