both upper and lower bowel, and re-
moves all gases and poisons. Brings

FRIENDS OF BALL

County Finances Talked at

Friends of ID. c.

 Bail told his supporters he was un- der fire of s.certain politicians because I refused to bend the knee to them during my service on the revenue board" He said he had no apology for the stand he had taken in board ses- sions on county affairs.
 "As chairman of the board for four years," he. continued, VI have become thoroughly familiar with county if naflees and feel that I am qualified to serve as treasurer. have tried hard to practice economy. When I came on the board the county had to pay eight per cent for it's money. The other day we re-financed some bonds at five per cent and obtained tenn porary loan atN41a per cent. We now discount all our bills, thus saving the total of two office salaries in discounts. The accounting system now employed by the county has been pronounced by experts as one of the soundest in the country. It gives us direct check on everything and enables any citizen to inspect the records and tell at a glance just where the county stands fi- nancially."
 Ball said he would soon make tour of the county to meet personally as many voters as possible. Meanwhile, he invited a minute examination of his record on the revenue body.

NO LABOR SLATE,
 OFFICIALS CLAIM
Chairman Cadden and J. l.. Bus
 by Issue Statement

The Committee of Allied Labor Or ganizations has no slate" of candi- dates and reports of a split in the labor ranks are entirely incorrect" k. c. Gladden., chairman, and J. l.. Bus by, chairman of the subcommittee handling political matters, declared in signed statement given The Age Herald Monday night.
 The committee, which is made up of delegates from various labor bodies of the county, has not had meeting since April 6, they said.
 ''on that date, the statement read, "the committee had it's regular meet ing, and previous to that time it had unanimously indorsed one person for the board Of-i revenue, and only one. That one person is Robert R.. Moore It has not in any wise sought to make up slate to present to the people of this county or to its members"
 Declaring the committee felt it was entitled to indorse ''one of their own number" on behalf of the laboring peo- pie of the district, the statement em- phatically denied that split" existed and asserted the persons who gave out earlier reports about the meeting were irresponsible"
 The statement that Moore was in- dorsed after heated debate by vote of 21 to 17, was denied by Gladden. and Busby. His indorsement was unani. nous, they said.
