JEL|N HAYES
MAKE REPLIES
Highway Commissioner De-
nieS He Seeks Hayes Office
Hayes Wants Questions
Answered

NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 22:--
State Highway Commissioner Abra-
ham Jelin and Democratic County
Committee Chairman, Edmund
A. Hayes, in statements made Sat
urday deny the insinuations made in
a recent statement Of the Republican
Board of Freeholders that there is
a split" between them and that
Jelin aspired to the leadership of
the county Democrats.
Chairman Hayes charges County
Solicitor Frederick Richardson with
"endeavoring to throw smoke
screen around the information de-
sired" by the Democratic county
chairman relative to certain expen-
ditures made by the freeholders.
| .'What has the State Highway Com
mission to do with the inquiries
Chairman Hayes has asked How
can | get Commissioner Jelin by try
ing to learn if Mr.. Hilker told the
truth when he said ten janitors only
received 500 a month each? They
are trying to dodge the issue. They
speak In generalities but not one
word do you hear in reply to my
questions on the expenditure Of coun-
ty funds"
Commissioner Jelin, in statement,
said he could not see why the State
Highway Commission had been
drawn into this controversy which Is
, purely a county matter.
Mr.. Jelin said in part:
County Chairman Hayes has
proven a very capable leader of
the Democratic party in Middlesex
county. | have always enjoyed the
personal friendship of Mr., Hayes
and I want to say at this time that
| Mr.. Hayes was one of my warmest
supporters when my appointment
was pending. He was untiring in
his efforts in my behalf and 1t is
absurd to say that I am aspiring
for the leadership Of the Demo-
cratic party in Middlesex county
| against Mr.. Hayes whom I so ad-
| mire.
"Governor Silzer is also accused
/ by the Board of Freeholders of ig-
noring the Democratic organization
| in the county of Middlesex which is
another grossly unfair accusation.
Governor Silzer knows the county
of MiddleseX and its citizens and
/ he has always been fair with the
! organization of this county in the
distribution of patronage"

LITTLE FARCHTLD
GIRL HAS PNEUMONIA

The little five-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Fairchild residing six
miles east of Antelope who had been
so low with pneumonia that she was
not expected to live was brought into
Plentywood last Friday and placed
under the care of DR.. York and with
in very few hours the fever had
subsidized and the little girl commenced
to improve and is now getting along
very nicely.
When the little girl was brought
to this city she was so delirious that
she would rise up and throw herself
from the head to the foot of the bed
and her temperature registered 1O4
on the thermometer. After receiving
one adjustment the fever was greatly
reduced and on Sunday afternoon she
was improved to such an extent that
she was able to sit up in bed and play
with her dolls. She will be able to
return to her home in a short time.

ing fund. If this law should 20 thru
that would bring US on a cash basis
right there and then, but law like
tht would prevent the banks from
making lot of easy money discount
ing warrants, it also would tie up part
Of the sinking fund money which now
goes to the banks at 21s per cent in
terest, so the banks are going to fight
Law like that as hard as they can,
and I miss my guess if they don't
win out.
If we are going to work on The cash
basis without any new law to help US,
the only way it can be done is to lay
low, very low, on our road work for
year or so; for the next fiscal year,
we would only have about $I4,OOO.OO
cash money to spend on the roads,
providing the road tax next year
would be the same as last year. Last
year road and auto tax amounted to
SSl, 100000, special road tax and an
fund provided for by the
County Commissioners brought this
amount up to over $37,OOO.OO, out of
this only the S15OOOO is left for US to
work on until July LIST, SO it will have
to be handled mighty carefully.
The bridge fund is still worse off
than the road fund, with $11,OOO.OO
outstanding warrants and no money
to pay them and not enough delin-
quent taxes to cover the amount.
Just what amount of work the Com
are figuring on doing this
year do not know, but 1 have an
idea that, at least the first part of the
summer, all that will be done is Just
what is absolutely necessary.
When took over the Office it was
my intention to see if 1 could get the
County Commissioners to appoint a
road supervisor in each township, buy
a plOw and a few scrapers for each
to work with, but as soon as found
out our financial standing I had to
give this up, as it would take about
S5,OOO.OO to buy the equipment for
the so townships, so the best we can
do is to wait and see what they are
going to do about the township orga-
law in Helena.
Yours very truly,

There is an iron gray colt that needs

been broken and it is in bad shape.
Charley Markham has been feeding it.
Who ever owns the animal better take

There will be another school open
this spring, known as the Tanson

some new scholars in this district.
Henry Ehrmanntraut will board the
teacher if she is man.
Down in dear old Minneapolis they
are trying to have the men remove
their hats in the elevators if there are
ladies aboard. That is real nice. They
should be in Montana. I was across
in the stage from Raymond to Plen-
tywood this winter. There were 13
people in that closed, air tight car:
a children, women and the rest men.
One wore the much sought-after star
of deputy sheriff. very young man
that they called Lowell. He took out
his cigarettes and passed them around.
It was real nice of him. At least 4
