Consumers are more responsible

The recent shortage in production.

than 10 per cent Of normal. Against
this must be set 50 per cent OF the
coal produced which, according TO

authorities estimate this waste as
high as so per cent. In very eff

to less than 10 per cent. Inasmuch
as most of the coal produced is used

that general efficiency in burning ii

Monday night made another rich

This is the second big robbery

An auto was in waiting in both cases

FELL IN LOVE WITH CRIMINAL.
New York School Teacher Secures His
Pardon and Marries Him.

Miss Mary Fairchild, principal of a
pubic school on Long Island, and
Henry Hoppe, released from Sing
Sing prison in 1917, have been mar
ried, following an unusual romance
in which cupid again demonstrated
that "stone walls do not a prison
make, nor iron bar a cage"
Miss Fairchild. according to the
story she relates, met Hoppe. Ger
man immigrant, when he was a con-
vict in Sing Sing prison, serving time
for robbery and carrying concealed
and deadly weapons. She first OBJ
tanned his freedom and then his prom
Use to take her for better or worse.
Some four years ago Miss Fair
child, then principal of a school in
New York city, decided to take up
prison welfare work as a relief from
the routine of the schoolroom. She
selected Sing Sing as the field for
her operations. On her very first Wis
it she met Hoppe. She became inter-
ested in his case and felt certain he
would make an excellent citizen, if
he had chance. She went before
the Judge who had sentenced Hoppe,
and then carried her plea to Governor
Whitman. Hoppe was 2aroled.
Three years have elapsed since Miss
Fairchild won freedom for the con-
victed criminal. During that period
the young man has engaged in the
confectionery business in New York
city and has more than demonstrated
that the New York school-teacher
made no error in picking him for her
ideal.

PROHIBITION NOT THE ISSUE
IN CONGRESSIONAL CONTEST

Rev. 0. J. Kvale is peoples advo-
cate, gifted, able, scholarly and fear
less. His clarion call of defiance to
the corrupting influences of the nation
rings as true as did that of Patrick
Henry hundred and fifty years ago.
And everywhere in the district the
common folks hear him gladly and are
rallying to his banner in no uncertain
way
The candidate of the standpatters,
Congressman Volstead, is making a
frantic appeal to prohibitionists to raj
ly to his support because of the law
which bears his name for the enforce
ment of the National prohibition
amendment. His defeat now, it is
claimed, would be a blow to prohibi-
ton. Be it far from us to attempt to
rob him of any credit which may be
due him for the framing Of this bill.
But at the same time we feel that the
injection of this issue is a piece of
political strategy only. Feeling that
the ground is slipping from under
them on the issues now up for solu-
ton, the standpatters hope to save
their congressman by an appeal to the
sentiment against the outlaWed liq-
uor traffic which they know is strong
in the district. The fight for consti-
tutional prohibition was" fought for
years and won, but Mr.. Volstead wears
no scars from those battles. An over
Whelming number of the states ratified
the amendment in an unprecedented
short time and the legalized drink
traffic is now as dead as chattle slav-
cry. 1t is the height of presumption
for Mr. Volstead to assume that his re-
| election to Congress is vital to the
success of prohibition. AS for resist
| ing any attempts to nullify this
| amendment in Congress, Mr. Kvale
| can be trusted fully as we'll as the
politician who for the last two cam.
paigns received the solid wet support
of the district. No one disputes Mr.,
| Kvale's record on prohibition in times
past and as a progressive in Congress
he will continue to be as true to his
convictions as he has in the past
| Kvale stands for progressive ideas
and issues, and his election would be
a triumph of no small proportions tc
the farmers and working people of the
District. He would be a powerful ad
vocate for their interests and we con
| fidently expect to see him nominated
at next Mondays primary.
