IT'S A SAD TALE, MATES.

As Captain Katzenjamme would say, Now
comes itr' Enter the short dark man with the
bushy black beard. The melodrama succeeds the
farce at Washington. CASTOR b. Means has been
robbed His precious diaries and other records Of his
mystifying and extensive exploits are gone, fallen,
we fear, into the hands Of Desperate Desmond.
Mr.. Means unsophisticated and guileless, accord
ing to his own admission having been spy for
Germany, Japan, and other foreign lands for private
employers, for the federal government, and now
and then on his own, naturally would not suspect
stranger who came to him with note written on
senate etterhead. He just turned the papers over
and that was ALL
These papers, mind you. had been "impoundtd"
by the senate committee at the request Of Senator
Wheeler, also without guile experience in such mat
ters For safe keeping the documents were left with
Mr.. Means. Who would be more interested In pre-
serving them inviolate than he?
Senator Wheeler's absolute good faith Is shown
by the fact that at the time the theft perpe-
trated he was keeping Mr.. Means in secuson, under
the protecting dome Of the Capitol. that United
States marshal from New York could not get hold Of
the star witness, who happened at the moment be
wanted to answer in federal court at New York on
an indictment charging him with attempt to bribe
federal officers.
Too darned bad that the United States offers no
better protection to honest ignorance and snowwhite
innocence. But what makes us sad and gloopy is
to have Means and Wheeler think the people are
such simpetons that they may be deceived by such
shenanigan.

rect . statement being made by Mr..
Ray J. sutton I'm his campaign for
city commissioner. regarding sewer
that WAS rebuilt between sixteenth
and Mason streets and Nineteenth
and Pierce streets.
This sewer WAS built five feet IN
diameter during the year 1888, having
an average cover Of about eight feet
when built BY the year 1921 this
cover had been increased 10 about 30
feet. this weight practically having
destroyed the original sewer. II Was
rebuilt with slx.foot sewer mot
seven.foot sewer, ~ stated by Mr..
sutton. although this ls irrelevant to
the case,
do not know why Mr.. sutton calls
this the Rock Island sewer. unless
because the Rock Island Railroad
company paid the entire cost Of re
building it.
| n IL true that this sewer connects
| with nYefoot sewer at the east
end. but Will not get any more water
than the old five foot sewer did until
the upper end II enlarged, which
must be done sooner or later: Of
course. more capacity will then nee.
essarily have 10 he provided east
from sixteenth and Mason streets.
This sewer construction has nothing
20 do with the flood conditions at
Thirteenth and Lcnvenworth streets
during very heavy rains, as stated
| by Mr.. Sutton.
The intersection OF Thirteenth and
f.eavenworth streets IL lower than the
ground 10 the east Of Il. and there II
a pocket nj this point. i'nill the
grade OF this intersection 10 raised
about Is inches or two feet, IL viii
be flooded during very heaVy rains
as IL was In the past before the sewer
in question had been reconstructed.
I desire 10 inform Mr.. Sutton that
llt In possible to connect n seven foot

TO smaller one. and stu come Within

Unparalleled Corruption

1t cannot be denied that there has
never been in American history an Ad-
ministration with such an unparalleled
record of graft and corruption. The cleo
ton of MIR. Coolidge would be an en-
dorsement of this record. The effect of
such an endorsement upon the growing
generations in America would be deplor-
able. 1t would proclaim that high moral
standards and integrity in public life are
not necessary to political prefernent;
that men may betray their public trust
and be rewarded by the people. No one
thing would have such a demoralizing and
diSintegrating effect upon public morality
and conscience as a vote of approval of an
Administration which has been distin-
guished chiefly for these grave crimes
against the State
