Secretary Lane, of the Wilson cab
met, came from California and was
always a champion Of progressive
policies in western matters.
Subtle influences are at work to
prevent the west from getting this
place to which it is clearly entitled
and switch it to the east.
Big eastern interests desire to
dominate in public lands, oil and min
eral development, forestry and the
exploitation of Alaska.
Most of these influences are reac-
tionary and represent what is left of
conservation policies that would tie
up the west for the future.
In the case of Alaska red tape and
dilatory department methods have
kept American enterprise out of that
territory and population declines.
The west should not be deprived
of the position of Secretary of the
Interior and it should be filed by an
efficient western statesman.

When the 1920 census was taken
a few months ago in Breckenridge,
Texas, the count showed a scant 1000
persons. Now there are $4,000 in
the town. Oil, of course. That beats
a county seat boom.
To stimulate building in New Jer-
sey, it has been decreed that dwelling
houses erected between now and
October 1, 1922, will be exempt from
taxation for the next five years.
On armistice day this year the
United States Army, which two years
before had numbered more than A.
100000 men, was still 10000 short
of its present authorized strength of
100000 officers and men.
E. w. Stanford, of Farmersville,
Texas, dug a sweet potato weighing
more than 10 pounds. We call that
mining, not harvesting.
The urban population of the Unit
ed States is about 100000 more
than the rural, while in 1910 the rur-
al was about 1000, 900 more than the
urban.

Now this place happened to be the
home Of another Mr.. Badger-a very
peaceful fellOw-seldom away from
home in the daytime, but this being a
cloudy day he had gone for stroll.
When Mr.. Badger returned and
found his door locked, he began to
wonder who was inside, for as he
peeked in at the keyhole, he could
see that the key was in the lock.
Now Mr.. Badger had been locked
out before. so he just got ladder
and climbed up to the chimney and
slid down.
Young Fox was asleep and making a
noise about 1t, and Mr.. Badger tip
tOed to his bedroom and looked in and
there in his very own bed was Young
Fox, fast asleep.
First he opened the door wide and
then he went to the bed and gave
Young Fox hard shake

"All your family are white-headed, all

and with spring he was on the bed
and took hold of one of Young 'Fox's
ears, which was sticking up.

Fox, jumping up and trying to shake
off Mr.. Badger, but it was no use; his
teeth were fastened in Young Fox's
ear for keeps.
Young Fox ran to the door and out
in the woods crying and jumping, but
still Mr.. Badger chung to his ear, and
not until he was quite a distance from
the house did he let go.
When he at last unfastened his
jaws he called after Young Fox. who

SO he started out tenement hunting.

There was Mr.. Badgers home; he
looked in at that, but it happened that

He'd tell how many centuries he'd done

But now he's in the seventh heaven;
there's gear grease on his mug.
And he can tinker all he likes-the vii

The keenest JOY his soul can know is TAX
ing one apart;
To grind the carbon from valve plumb
satisfies his heart.
To wear q set of jumpers and a greasy
cap. why, say!
Upon a sea of glory he just simply floats
away!
And when he has one out to test. it's
viscera all showing
Without the hood he listening close to
hear how it is going:
Mmmm- hmmmmm! There isn't anything
could ever, ever put
Another drop Of bliss into the being of
that nut!
Folks pay him for the work, but shucks!
It's such a waste of money.
He'd do the same thing for his board, be-
cause to him it's funny
He'd use monkey wrench at meals If
anyone would let him;
He'd tie his tie with a stilson-surei
That stunt would never fret him.
He hooks up WHEY with the pliers, with
skilful twist and tug.
He eats, drinks, dreams machinery-this

AGAIN
SUES D0L,lV

The County of Sheridan, through
County Attorney Gunther, has
brought another suit against Joseph
Do1in for the recovery of money, al
legged to have been paid to that gen
tleman, fraudulently, by means Of
fraudulent claims, presented to the
County Commissioners a year ago
last November during tlll Sat1fnalia
of allowing any and all bills on those
former dark November days. This
suit, it is reported, is the first of "a
number Of suits, which will follow on
behalf of the county in rapid success
sion, in which County Attorney
G1lnther will endeavor to recover for
the taxpayers of Sheridan county a
part of the thousands of dollars that
Dolin has defrauded the county out
Of by means of a printing contract
and perjured and fraudulent claims.
This case which County Attorney
Gunther has just filed is identical
with the case filed last spring against
Dolin wherein. he recovered about
ST 900 which that gentleman had col
lected from the county by means Of
fraud and perjury. The recovery of
the $1,000 was for excess money paid
for the printing of the Primary bal
lots for the primary election of 1918.
The case now filed is for the recov-
ery of excess money paid Dolin for
the printing of the official ballots
used for the general election in the
fall of 1918. The contract and the
facts in the case filed against Dolin
Wednesday are identical with the
case last spring in which the huge
recovery was made.
The claim on which the county at
torney brought suit for recovery, is
No. l75O3 and on Warrant No. 1884,
in the sum of $1696.80, and which
claim was filed November 25th, 1918,
and audited by James F. Redmond,
by his wife and deputy, Bernice Red
nond, and the Warrant was issued
by Mrs. Ben johnson, by her deputy,
Rodger Burke, and countersigned by
Frank Weinrich, chairman Of the
Board of County Commissioners.
The County Attorney alleges that
OUT of the $1696.8O collected by Dolln,
on the aforesaid claim and warrant
that Dolin actually had coming by
virtue of his contract, only $285. 40,
and that Dolin had collected illegally
the sum Of $1411.34 for which he, the
county attorney, had made demand
together with 90 per cent penalty and
8 per cent interest as is provided by
law in cases where money is fraudul,
emily collected from the county, and
"that the defendant had failed, ne
elected and refused to return or to
renav the said sum-" and wherefore
the county attorney in behalf Of the
county asked q judgment in the sum
of s1411.34 together with penalty
and interest, WHICH will amount to
$1862.9

MANDAMUS
co. AUDITOR
Will Try to Force Her to Audit Claim
Not Properly Itemized and One
For Which He Has Not Furnished
Proofs of Publication.

Again Joe Dolin rashes madly into
court.
This time he wants another man
.damus.
He wants. to mandamus Mrs.
O'Grady to audit another large claim
filed year ago last spring and which
has not yet been audited.
This particular claim is for the
printing of the minutes of the pro-
ceedings of the Board of County
Commissioners and other legal no
tees.
The auditor has held this claim for
proofs Of publication and copies Of
the proceedings and lega, notices, so
she can measure the folios and check
the bill as the law requires.
Mr.. Dolin has been requested time
and again to bring the proofs Of. pub
lication, and the claim would be aud
tied, but this he has steadily refused
to do for reasons best known to him
self. Not wanting to produce the
proofs of publication, he now asks
the Judge to issue an order directing
Mrs. O'Gradv to audit the same with
|out the proofs.
The writ is returnable Monday,
April 5th. County Attorney G1nth-
Ter will appear for Mrs. O'Grady.
It is safe bet that Mr.. Dolin will
have to produce his proofs of publi-
cation before he gets his claim aud
tied.
