What Else Can Voters Do?
CA FRONT PAGE EDITORIAL

We have a fine start for county
government on the Sheridan county
plan. This statement is based on
such actions by the county board as
the handling of the Froid petitions
This alone is enough to show the
lengths to which a majority of the
board and its hackers are willing to
go in the interests of few favorites
and certain sections of the county
They take their cue, apparently,
from the mother county and have
learned their lesson well. If there
was any remaining doubt of the att
tude and Intentions of the Mondak-
Poplar clique, who at present have
grip on the county lever, it will sure
ly be dissipated by the selection of
their favored candidates, mostly
from few towns, to the absolute
exclusion of the west end of the
county. If they can only slip Vein
rich and Patch over this time, things
can be shaped just to their liking and
nailed down hard and fast for long
time ore and the taxpayers and
tie West End may rave in vain.
By this it is not intended to imply
that there are no efficient and fair
officials now in office in this county,
but in the primary campaign, it is
not their records that stamp them
but the company in which they are
found. When you go into the voting
booth at the primaries you can vote
for the men on but one list.
Therefore !, in the above circum-
The Herald submits to its
readers the question: What else can
the fair and open-minded voters of
the county do but stand solidly for
the common interests of the whole
county, the interests of the struggl-
ing farmers, the interests of wage
earners, the interests of the tax pay
ers, the interests Of the advocates of |
clean, just government, by support
ing the candidates on the Democrat
ic ticket who have received the Far
mer-Labor endorsement?

Manhasset Wins

When Uxbridge tied the score In
the ninth the crowd simply lost their
heads in the game between Manhasset
and the Ben Hur of the Massachusetts
town last Sunday in Putnam. The
game was held up until the excited
fans could be crowded back from the
base lines. With Cournoyer on third
Boulay was up and had two strikes.
He met the next one for a long drive,
bringing over the winning run. The
score was a to 3.
The score was close all the way
and was the kind that kept the spec
tators on the anxious seat, giving that
thrill that makes real baseball game.
Manhasset scored in the first ana
held the visitors runless until the
eighth. when they got two runs over.
The visitors got two over and when
the last half of the eighth began Ben
Hur was nose ahead. The Mans
added two more and had lead OF one
which was tied by Ben Hur, but IT
availed them nothing, as the local
team earned the winning run IN the
last half of the last inning.

RelieveYour
Rheumatism
For Csc.
Mr. Today Relief or No Pay

There are three vital processes OF
human existence the digestion of
food, the extraction Of nourishment
from it and the elimination OF the
waste.
Let anything interfere with these
processes,-let them be Interrupted or
improperly carried on, and sickness
of some kind follows.
Poor digestion and assimila- \
ton means failure to derive n
full nourishment from food and ~
that in turn often means i'm
poyeriShed blood. weakness, u
anemia, etc. Poor elimination
means an accumulation of waste
matter which poisons the body, lowers
vitality, decreases the power OF re-
sistance to disease and leads to the
development of many serious ills.
Rheumatism,-due to some interfer-
ence with the process of elimination,
failure to get rid of certain body
poisons,-cannot be expected to yield

the condition responsible for it. Could
