game, the most brilliant of the long
series of inter-sectional clashes from
the spectators viewpoint. was wit
messed by a crowd estimated at as

Coach Bob Tolweli's midshipmen
played a wide open style of foot
ball from the first kickoff and had

by Matthews in tine final period in

would have triumphed, The Navy
proved superior in every department
with the exception of punting. where
honors were even.
Huskics Are strong.
The ability OF the Huskies to
tighten their defense at critical mo-
ments saved them from possible de-
feat. After the Navy had carried
the ball 10 the 3-inch line in the first
period the Huskies stopped three
plunges at the line OF scrimmage

HOW POOR DOCTOR And HEALTH
OFFICER EARN THEIR MONEY
Story OF the Irpe Case-FamIy Lay Nearly Dying from
Small Pox Before Doctors Showed Up-Eighf Cb;Idrar
and Father and Mother In Bed Without Care

Many people in Sheridan county
who have been following the gigan-
tic claims which the county poor doc
tor and the county health officer have
been collecting from Sheridan county
have been wondering what these men
do to earn their money.
In behalf cf the taxpayers the Pro
ducers News has been trying to To-
cate someone who knew and to get
some instance of where they ever did
anything at all for their pay.
This week some information was
brought to the Producers News. 1t is
in regard to the Triplett case, and the
reports of this case seem to have all
of the ear marks of the usual meth
DDS of Dr.. Sells and DR.. Storkan.
It seems that last spring sometime,
rather late in the spring, but during
the time when the children were still
in school, the children of H. P. Trip
lett came home sick with what after
wards proved to be the small pox.
The parents did not know what did
all the children of which there were
seven. The TTipletts were very poor.
They did not have money to hire a
doctor. The poor mother was about
to have another baby The mother
and ia her got along in the tiny two
room house as long as they could

mourned by many. She was of the

the afflicted family what thew were

DAN OLSON SIGNS AFFIDAVIT IN PREMISES

Corporation and That Warrants Must Be Called Sa9s~

Storkan shot his last wad into the
air last week.
IL was shot that did not make
much of a noise:
Burley Bowler sent the story down
by mail just in time to be set up
Friday afternoon.
1t was all about the great robbery
perpetrated against the school dis
tflcts by reason of the publication Of
qle warrant calls for the different
school districts S ,bv the ex-offlcio treas

COUNTY Treasurer D. J. Olson
WARRANTS MUST BE CALLED
Ihe outstanding warrants for all cf
The school districts must be called
when there is money available to nav
the same, and the call of the war

piled with The law as it is written
on the statute books over which he
has NO control whatsoever.
DISTRICTS CAN'T BE JOINED
The allegations that all of the dis
trlcts can be joined in one call con-
tains not an iota of merit. There
would be just as much legality in
making the call for every county in
the state or every city in the state
IN one call as in making the school
district calls all in one call. The
school districts are all separate.
The county treasurer is not treas
urer of all districts jointly but of all
districts separately. Each school
district account is kept separately
and in theory the money is kept
segregated. One district has moth
ing to do with the business of anv
other district. Each district gets the
benefit Of the call and is chargeable

it is for its warrant books CIR minute
books or for the advertising for the
sale of bonds. The article appearing
in the Fa1merine last week to the
contrary is absolute bunk. The bald
statement that no other treasurer in /
the state makes separate calls for
each district, is a fair sample of the
accuracy of anything that appears in
the Farmerine. Just 10 show how
