We first quote from the Glasgow Rec
ord.
At meeting of Dumbartontown
Council, Balie Irwin requested that
the council discuss the conduct in
the burg streets on Friday and Satur-
day nights.
The trouble unfortunately, he said,
was the conduct of their young men,
and the cause in his belief was the
sale of a particular stuff which was
running the morale OF their young
men.

GUS The council ought to step in
and resolve that this stuff should not
be sold.
Provost Garrick questioned if they
had any power in the matter. II
this thing was known to the police, it
could be reported to the Licensing
Court and the magistrates could then
take some action.
Dean Guild Mckinney asked il it
was not a matter for the Sanitary In
spector, but the Provost replied that
publcans selling this cheap drink
were not practicing any deception on
anybody. The men who paid that
price for a drink knew quite well not

GEORGE ADAMS, FORMER NOMEITE KILLED BY
 SWITCH ENGINE

In the last overland mail clippings were received by friends, of the sudden death of Geo. Adams, a former well known citizen of Nome and highly respected sourdough. who with his family removed to Berkeley, California, few years ago. We print below clippings from two different California pap CTS which relate to the sad death of Mir. Adams:
 George Adams. 50, of 2SO3 For est Avenue, Berkeley was instantly killed shortly before 1 o'clock this afternoon (Nov. 2, lt2D, when he was thrown from the rear of truck in which he was riding di rectly beneath the wheels of a Southern Pacific switch engine.
 The accident occurred at the intersection of first and Grove Streets, Oakland. Adams. who is labor foreman for the Clinton COnStfuctlOn company, now Dulld- ing the Grove street municipal pier was returning to work from lunch and was riding in the rear end of light truck driven by M. NJ. Cole man, 5SS Twenty-third Avenue, San Francisco
 On approaching the First and Grove Street intersection, Coleman was prevented from seeing the en- zine by high board fence until the truck was almost on the tracks. The driver swung sharply around to avoid crashing into the engine and the sudden .swerve threw Ad- ans out and directly in the path of the locomotive.
 J. T. Bray, 1O43 Sixth Avenue. Oakland, engineer on the locomo- tive, was unable to stop in time to avoid running over the man. A fire department jack was necessary to raise the engine and remove the body.

DIET A POTENT FACTOR IN
EVERY DISEASE

(Contlnued from Yesterday
This IL tho second Of . series of
articles in which win try to ex-
plain to you the part which food
plays in the cause and cure Of all
OF the common disorders. As ex-
planned, ] an taking up these var
ious disorders one BY one, on down
through m alphabetical list, the
closing paragraph in the introduce
tory article having covered high
and low blood pressure.
Brtght's disease, Or nephritis, is
due to faulty metabolism. This is
likewise true Of diabetes. A cure
depends almost wholly upon dietetic
treatment.
Bronchitis and all similar derange-
ments Of the mucous membrane of
the nose and throat are tn. result
OF too liberal . use Of mucus-form-
ing foods, such ~ sugar, starches,
and fats. A change Of climate may
be tried-the tonsils and adenoids
removed-and still these catarrhal
troubles will continue until these
mucus-forming foods are entirely
eliminated. Hay fever Is likewise
caused by the irritation Of this
mucus which is often Of an acid
reaction. irritating to certain deli
cate types Of mucous membranes.
Constipation is developed from a
multiplicity Of causes, chief among
which is the use Of too much starch,
and . deficiency in the diet of the
leafy green vegetables and fruits.
Deafness, when not Of accidental
origin, is due entirely to catarrh Of
the nose and throat and this, in turn,
Is ] have said before, to wrong food.
Defective circulation Of the blood
10 often due to q sluggish blood
stream, thickened with excuses of
food materials not needed by the
body. It is surprising to note how
quickly the circulation will improve
when the blood is thinned to the
proper consistency to more easily
pass through the hundreds of miles
Of blood vessels winding in and out
Of the different tissues Of the body.
Digestive disorders Of all kinds
are, Of course, induced by various
dietetic indiscretions, such as using
indigestible foodstuffs, inharmonious
mixtures Of even good food, over
eating, eating without hunger, eat
ing when exhausted by work or
nerve strain, improper mastication,
and irregularity Of meals. These are
the principal causes of gastritis, and
stomach and intestinal ulcers, and
the many digestive disturbances in
cluded under the name Of ''indiges-
tion." Every one understands this
to be true, as the discomfort after
q meal gives an immediate clue to
the cause of the trouble. It even
seems that nature is kind to the
one whose digestive system is easily
upset, as the cause is so apparent,
which is often not true in other dis
orders also really produced by the
same errors in diet but which are
not so easily traced to the same

Editorial Comment


VCd11HIBCO w d, Independently
We suggest that merchants interested in
the peddler evil, close all stores one day next
week and inaugurate "Peddler Day" in Caring
ton. Let every merchant, clerk and attache get
some article, sales talk and load of unmit-
igated gall and make the rounds. After the
housewives of Darlington have answered the
doorbells to their calls and seen the displays
they will probably be tired Of front door mer-
chants.
To make the day a success we suggest that
prizes be offered to the "peddler" who makes
the larges number Of sales. Of course, there
must be a deposit from the housewife, who will
be required to wait seven weeks for the deliv-
cry Of the article. Then if it goes bad there
must be no comeback OH the merchant. No
guarantees allowed and bulldogs barred!

PEOPLES FORUM
THE CONSTITUTION
Pleasant Lake, N. D.,
Jan. 8. 1927

Editor Tribune:
/ would like to call the attention
OF your subscribers to the need Of
having the constitution changed 30
that we can vote directly for pres
ident and vice president. ! will ex.
plain to you some Of the reasons
why ] believe that we should vote
directly for president.
Every state is allowed one repre-.
sentative in tho United States house
OF representatives for each $4,000
inhabitants. Each state has two,
senators no matter how many people
live in the state. We are allowed to!
have rs many votes for president a.
we have senator's and representa-.
tives, 80 in North Dakota we have
five votes for president.
We have about 5000 people and
when we divide this 500, 900 by
$4,000 we get three, and have left
over $4,000 inhabitants. Now. I,
figure that the voters amoue these
$4,000 people might just % we'll
stay ct home % far q the pyesiden-.
tial vote is concerned, @ their vote
does not count any in helping 70,
elect the president, - they have no
elector to represent them in the
electoral college. In other words, q
state having $4,000 people has just
as many votes for president % Z
state having 100000 people. Do
you think that this Is fair TO = state
having 600, 900 people? Every state
must have . lot Of people LETT over
the same Is North Dakota has, and
] have ben wondering how many
votes Tor president they would bd
entitled to Il we could nut them all
in one state where they would then
count in electing the president.
Another reason why we should
change the present system IS that
the Democratic vote in . Republic
can state does not do the Uemo]
cratic candidate any good % al o.
the electors from such . state ard
Republicans. In Z state whore thq
majority are Democrats thu vote d
the Republicans Is lost to the Repub4
lican candidate for president. And
to make it worse, the minority pari
! ty in some Of tho states Is Jared
than the majority party in some Of
the other states. This makes Il pol
sible for : president to b slectpd|
