HIDDEN GERMS
The MOST DEADLY

Today there is scarcely a per.
son who does not use some sort
of antiseptic tooth paste or
mouth wash as an important
part of the daily toilet. These
antlseptics are very necessary
TO good health--they kill the
germs which are present on the
teeth and in the mouth. But
what of the millions of disease
germs which enter the stomach
and intestinal tract with the
1ood-which are not thrown off
by the system-but remain to
bring about the system-poisond
condition professionally known
as Toxaemia?
Medical authorities are agreed
that the intestinal tract Is the
most prolific breeding place for
germs in the whole body. To
meet this newly discovered ne
cessity for an internal antisep-
tic" Partola was originated.
Partola quickly corrects and re-
lieves Toxaemia System poison

Do not confuse Partola with

of Steam Engineering, and Rear Ad-
miral Harry RI. Rousseau. The for
mer confirmed that there was Il small
fuel depot at Pearl HarbOr before
the Doheny company placed the stor-
age tanks there Admiral Rousseau,
n technical witness. said that storage
tanks for oil came under the general
heading of fuel depots," the conten-
ton of Government counsel having
been that it was illegal to construct
storage tanks at Pearl Harbor with
out authority of Congress. because
regular provisions are made for sup
ply depots" in the appropriation bills.
Senator Harreld Testifies.
Two other witnesses who produced
a mild interest We're Senator J. w.
Harreld of Oklahoma and Edwin
Booth. also of that State. Booth was
solicitor for the Interior Department
when the contracts were made. He
was indicted with Senator Burton *.
Wheeler of Montana and Gordon
Campbell on charge of conspiracy
March 81. 1925. in connection with
Western land cases. The indictment
was quashed December 20 of that
year. Senator Thomas j. Walsh of
Montana acting as counsel for
Wheeler
Senator Harreld identified a letter
written by him to Fall. December II =,
1922, in the interests of capable and
responsible parties who desired to
submit bids to the department for oil
reserves covering any or all of the
naval reserves. Fall, the following
day, replied that leases were being
made by the Navy Department, and
suggested that he make his applica-
ton to the "Commander-in- chief of
the Army and Navy"
Former Solicitor Booth, testifying
briefly, said the question of the
legality of the leases had not been
submitted to him. "In the ordinary
course of business, was there any
reason why they should have been
| referred to yOu?" asked Attorney
Lambert for Fall. Government coun-
sci sought to keep the answer out of
the record, but the court permitted
the witness to reply to the question.
Booth replied there was no reason.
Joseph w. Clark of I.eadville, Colo,
an attorney, and now police court
Judge, was the next witness. He said
Fall wrote him in March, 1922. that
the leases were being handled by the
Navy. B. J. Brandon, Los Angeles at
torney, testified to letter almost
similar, and S. p. While, president
and manager of the Eighth Oil Co.,
! also said he had an unfavorable re-
ply cOncersling prospective oil leases.
The Government had introduced this
testimony to bear out it's contention
that other companies were not given
equal opportunity to bid on the naval
reserves.

Editorial Comment
Bad EXAMPLES

William Allen White in the Empora Guzette)
Our friends, the vets, exultng the fact
that Washington drank hard liquor and left recipe
for beer Washington did not live IN an industrial
age, crowded and complex. He lived in the time Of
an individuastic civilization where a man could
do largely he pleased without much affecting
his neighbor. To cite Washingtons example on
the bcozc question is like citing Davids exam
pie marital fidelity. David, the sweet singer of
Israel, considerable of an old bat. Students Of
the Bible may remember that he went upon the roof
IF his palace one day and saw a lady taking bath,
grabbed her. sent her husband out into battle to be
killed, and put check her. No b. 3d. of his wives
and concabines without losing any standing in the
community. Darid also had other marital rrcgu-
laritics rather without number But one would
hardly in our present civilization hold up David as
reason why American marriage laws Of 1926 shoul |
be modified, to permit light loves and leers
The domestic affairs Of Jacob were also highly
irregular, and so those of a lot CT the Biblical
characters, which is reason why the parallel is
to be carried out today Lincoln, as 4 young man,
worked in grocery store where they sold liquor,
which is reason for rc-cstablishing the saloons.
Benjamin Franklin had children without benefit Of
clergy, which is why the free lovers should
try to break down the present American home.
The whole business of trying to prove that booze
is good thing for humanity, by citing the fact that
good and noble persons, living in a different civ
ilizaton, under different environment held it in
high esteem, is foolish, bad logic which should de-
ceiye no one. Times change and men change with
them, and with changing times and men must come
changing customs in the world.

Outrage in Washington

George L. Cassidy was arrested as he was about
to enter the house Of representatives office building
in Washington. He carried brief case which he
dropped when policeman confronted him. It broke
and ran. He also did, but was overtakcn He was
intact, but the old Scotch wasn't.
Mr.. Cassidy has been well known as the. imam
with the green hat and was frequent visitor in
the offices OF the congressman, who reported to
be highly indignant. The incident is regarded as
a distinct breach of faith. When, it is inquired,
did the District of Columbia come under the Vol
stead act? 1t is true that some time ago con-
gresham was shot accidentally by stupid prthi-
bition officer who was shooting at bootlegger. but
although many congressman were irritated by the
incident they were placated BY the reflection that
after all the bootlegger wasn't the victim Of the
Outrage
The congressman's bootlegger is covered by the
congressional immunity from arrest, but Mr.. Cas-

il understood that the congressman are not readily
