St. Joseph. Mo-, June 21.-John

charges of conduct ,lnbecoming an

cific charges were that, according to
the sworn testimony before the Unit
ed States senate investigating COM
mittee, .Albus accepted $4,000 of the
slush fund used in Missouri in the
interest of a certain presidential can
didate, and also that June 4, the last
day for Republicans candidates to
file for the August primary, Abus
absented himself from his Office SO
that number of Republicans were
unable to pay their filing fee to Al
bus as treasurer, as required by law.
After the committee had adopted
resolutions declaring the Office OF
treasurer vacant, w. A. Evans OF the
Missouri Valley Trust Company was
elected to succeed Albus Eva,.s is
not member OF the committee, put
it is not necessary for the treasurer
to be a member. The resolutions

Wireworms in Bates County.

Reports come to this office from
various sections of Bates County
that wireWorms are causing more or
less damage i'll the corn fields. Thl,
worm is small, shiny, brown worm
about one-half inch in length and Is
found attacking the roots OF the corn
nearly destroyed + this insect.
The wireworms, which are the lar
vac Of the click beetle, sometimes do
serious damage to corn for a year or
So following the breaking up OF sod
land The beetles deposit their eggs
in sod land, and the following spring
the eggs hatch in the form of small
reddish-brown, shiny worms. These
worms live in the soil for couple .
years before they change into the
beetle form. On this account they
give trouble longer than do est
worms.
Treatment: The most effective
manner of combating these worms is
fall blowing. which disturbs the eggs
and consequently causes mary Dt
them to be destroyed. However, this
is not entirely effective, AID it
trouble is experienced with them it
is often desirable to grow grain or
other crops for year or two on the
fields before planting to corn. The
wireworms attack the grain crops
but because there are SO many more
plants than in field of corn they
do not often cause serious trouble.

And the Prices Still Mount,

Washington, June 2I.-The food
budget of the average American
family attained a new high record in
May, the department of labor an
nounced today, the cost of twenty
two articles OF food used in making
up the retail food index having in
creased 3 per cent over the total eos:
in April and ? per cent as compared
with January. Recent increases in
the cost of sugar, flour and potatoes
largely accounts for the group in
creases, the Monthly Review says.
"Since food forms more than 81
per cent of the total budget of the
workingman's family" the state
ment continues, "the cost of living
can scarcely be expected to decline
noticeably SO long as food prices
continue to advance"
In comparison with the April
figures, today's review shows sugar
has advanced rs per cent, corn meal

Boston .kennsbec Steamer Service


Comes the good word from Bath
that capitalists of that city, headed
by Elwell S. Crosby, have taken an
option on the property Of the Eastern
Steamship Lines Inc. involved in
the Boston Kennebec and Boothbay
Harbor service, with a view of rails
ing the necessary amount of capital
with which to purchase and operate
the said lines. That would mean a
resumption of the steamer service
between Kennebec river ports and
Boston and an improvement of the
service between Bath and the Booth
bay Harbor resorts. The former has
been for about five years suspended
and the latter has during and since
the war been anything but what was
needed by the travelling public.
1t is now up to the people of the
Kennebec valley and the sections
that will benefit by such steamer
service to come to the front and
name the amount of capital they will
invest. The men starting the plan
have no doubt of it's being a paying
investment-or they would not be
investing their own money But it
will require more than they wish to
put up and besides they are willing
that others should share in the I'M
dertaking. both as to taking over a
part Of the burden and sharing in
the profits. About 100000 will be
necessary to swing the deal. 1t is I'D
to the business men and others of
the Kennebec to decide whether or
not we shall again have steamer con-
nection with Boston.

The Republican party has the skill
and constructive ability in it's mem
bership to meet them. II it fails. it
should and must pay the same pen
atty for that failure which we de-
mand should be paid by the Demo-
cratic party.
THE essential thing is that the Re
publican party has pledged itself to
put into living being the principle of
an organized association of nations
for the preservation of peace. The
carrying out of that promise is the
test of the entire sincerity. integrity
and craftsmanship of the Republican
party"
Such an analysis as Mr.. Hoover
has made should commend itself to
the honest American who has the
good of his country at heart and
should also set at rest any doubts
that may remain in the minds of
hardened skeptics as to Mr.. Hoover's
Americanism or his Republicanisna.
