TIE AMERGAM PKESS ASSoc1AIQN

Every time the county engineer
bursts into print, he gives away some
very interesting information. Re-
Gently, the Record showed where the
county had paid the Fogle bridge
company this year the sum of $1457
for replacing one abutment of a
bridge that was originally built by
Mr.. Fogle in 1916 for $1195 for the
entire bridge. In last weeks Free
Press, Mr.. Tong publishes an article
explaining why there was such b vast
increase. And here is what he says:
'The original abutment did not go
to a solid foundation below the bed
Of the stream. Had it done so it
would not have washed out. The
concrete was not true reinforced con-
crete; it was similar in composition
to the concrete used by DR.. R. R.
Hogue in the construction Of the
walls of his new hotel in Linton"
Isn't that a gem? The county en-.
gineer rushes to the defense of him
self and the county commissioners
and what does he do? He condemns
the work done on the original bridg,
in 1915. And who built the origina
bridge? Why, Mr.. Fogle's bridg'

several names were left out Of the
list Of candidates for public once. We
refer especially 70 Miss Nelson for
state superintendent, and justices
Birdzell and Nuessle for the supreme
court. All are candidates, and their
names will appear on the so-called
"nonpartisan" ballot not; however,
meaning nonpartisan league ballot.
In fact, they are not nonpartisan can
didates in that sense. Miss NELSON
Is the present incumbent and needs
no introduction.
Bitter league attacks upon, her for
four years has simply made her
stronger every year, and she will be
elected this time by probably not less
than 10000 majority ~
The supreme court is most i'm
portant matter to the people Of the
state. Justice Birdzell was original.
ly elected by the league forces. but
has been at all times fair and i'm
partial. in his work upon the supreme
bench. He is now chief Justice
Judge Nuessle needs no introduction
in Emmons county,, and will be the
high man Of the six in Emmons.
The third Of the trio whom we be-
lieved should be elected is Attorney
General S., johnson. He was high
man in a field Of nine in the primary,
and will probably win. He has prov
en- himself a fearless fighter, and a
conscientious official.
When you cast your ballot; don't
forget to vote for Nnessle. JOHNSON
and Birdzell fer the supreme court.

Some time ago the Free Press
wanted the Record man to give 1t all
the data pertaining to the funds rails
ed by Messrs. Hogue and Seeman for
the taxpayers investigation. We
suggested that Mr.. Miller 60 to the
gentleman who had control Of the
fund for his information but Miller
says there is absolutely nothing do
ing. Go to Hogue for information.
Oh no. Mr.. Hogue doesn't speak to
Mr.. Miller when he meets him on the
street, SO he just couldn't think Of
asking him any questions. Well, old
topper, that's your worry and not
ours. When we accept u position a.

your reporting for you. In the

!. For weeks the Free Press has be-
Titled the taxpayers investigation, and
has done all in its power to prevent
public sentiment from backing the
movement. Now, shortly before
election, its editor feels the weight
Of public opinion bearing down on
him, and he caves" little at least.
For instance, he admits that .'there
are many knotty points "a. be decided
by the courts . And the Free Press
is surely right. There are some
''knotty" problems all right.
Further, the Free Press is
finally driven to admit that it be-
lieves that the commissioners have
been squandering more money than
they would have done had they been
spending their own money. And
again the Record says aamen.''

company, the same concern that this
year replaced one abutment for more
than the whole bridge was originally
built for.
for many moons waxed face
The engineer and Mr.. Fogle have
for many moons waxed waxed face
tious when the construction Of the
new hotel is considered. And now,
the engineer informs us that Mr..
Fogle has been building bridges for
the county in the sef-same way.
Ouch. No wonder Mr.. Fogle and q
friend Of his communed together last
Thursday after the Free PRESS was
out and unanimously agreed that
newspapers are a nuisance anyway,
and don't do anybody any good.
Truly every time Mr.. Tong opens
his mouth he puts his foot in it; as
the old saying goes.
We have been hearing very much
the last few weeks about how these
..Eg Z . . r :
reinforced concrete bridges and cul-
verts will last a hundred years, etc.
Here is a reinforced concrete bridge
that Mr.. Fogle's company built which
didn't last six years. And the en-
gineer says that the bridge failed to
stand up because the concrete used
by Mr.. Fogle's company in building
the bridge was Of improper compost
ton.
It looks as though the engineer, in
attempting to make capital for him
self, has unwittingly issued a very
singing Indictment Of work that Mr..
Fogle's company had done for the
county.

Brooklyn.

New York, March 4.-The police

Lexington avenue "Ln train, was
struck by bullet in the leg. He heard
no shot.
While the police were questioning
nearby residents, James Carey, who
was walking along Cumberland street,
was hit in the side by bullet. He,
too, heard no shot.
Soon afterwards Thomas Campbell,
who was walking on Nostrand avenue,
was shot in the right shoulder. He
likewise said he heard no shot.
All were sent to hospitals. Their
wounds are not serious.

PROFIT SLAsHING URGED.
By Mine Workers as Means to Cheaper
Anthracite.

New Work, March 4-Cheaper an
thracite coal for the public to be made
possible by slashing the profits Of the
mine owner rather than by reducing
the laborer's wages, is advocated by
the United Mine Workers of America
in statement issued here to-day.
Mine owners freely admit that the
cost OF coal to the consumer is too
high," declares the statement. "The
remedy they suggest, as preliminary
to the opening Of new negotiations for
a working agreement with the work
ers, is a reduction in the cost of Dig
ging the coal--the miners wagewhich
is placed by the operators at 1892 a
ton"
The mine workers indicate that low
er labor costs will represent bare
living wage" whereas they insist upon
IA saving wage commensurate with the
hazards Of the industry
Goal sells at New York, Philadel-
phia and in other large cities ut prices
ranging up to SIG a ton, which repre-
sents the operators own profits, profits
Of the railroads, profits Of the coal
sales companies, the royalty takers
and distributing agents. the state
ment sets forth.
"The operators very skilfully avoid
any reference TO reductions of sub
stantial nature in the matter Of their
own profits it continues.

Only a Small Amount Set
Aside for Such Emer-
gencies
SIX FIREMEN
WERE INJURED
Signed Debentures Valued
at $5,OO0,OOO Were in
Vault

Montreal, March 4.-City officials to-
day awaited cooling Of the embers Of
the fire which last night destroyed the
city hall, that they might open the big
safes in the services department and
ascertain whether signed debentures
valued at SJ,000,00O and other impor-
tant public documents were damaged
in the confagration.
The building, erected in 1873 at a
cost Of 100000, is a total loss, with
four roofess walls The fire destroyed
the interior and many valuable pa
pers. 1t is believed, however, that the
debeptures and other documents in the
fireproof safes viii be found intact.
Six firemen were injured
Mayor Martin estimated that event
ually the fire and the rehabilitation
labor it would necessitate would prove
to have occasioned sl0,000000 loss
to- the city. In addition to the de-
struction of the building and its con-
tents he based his estimate on the cost
of building anew, or replacing lists
of assessments, taxes and other records
and the temporary expense Of housing
the city government. The only in
surance is a reserve Of 100000 set
aside to meet fire losses and other
eventualities.
Many works OF art and historic
documents were destroyed by the
flames.
The resulting disorganization Of the
city's finances, Mayor Martin said,
would be inestimable.
