Tourists who are here to get
away from the hay fever Sec
tons and find relief in our
health-giving climate where no
hay fever exists, make the
claim that their visits will be
discontinued if the rag weed
and other hay fever irritants
are not removed. The tourists
are right. Even the state of
Minnesota has passed a law
making it compulsory to cut
weeds and destroy them. This
law like several others we can
name is just a law and is on
the books to clutter up some
nice white pages. Of course,
there is a question as to what
are noxious weeds. There are
several organizations formed in
the state to prevent the des-
truction of wild flowers. Many
of the noXious weeds have
small handsome flowers but
the pollen from these weeds is
irritating to the hay fever con-
tingent. First it is you must
cut this, that and the other
bush, and then it is you can't
cut this, that and the other
bush because it has handsome
flowers. The weeds must go
in order that our tourists can
stay.

Again we have sent out a
mass of subscription bills and
again we must ask. those re-
ceiving the same to tell US what
they intend doing about it. We
hate to turn in some of those
who have been with us since
we started out to exc out sus-
tenance for ourselves and
family in Ely or those whom
we know are unable to pay but,
in justice it is only fair to hear
from them. Tell US what you
think and accompany your let
ter with a little on account If
not able TO pay for it all.
Our own case brings US to
the plight the local merchant
is in. The larger part have ac-
counts galore on their books
measuring all the way from
dollars to hundreds. Under
the present short time wages,
many have given their friends
the go-by and go somewhere
else for their wants. Wouldn't
it be showing little apprecia-
ton to the man that trusted
you to go to him and if able,
pay a little on account, also
make your purchases from him
and thus show he is not for
gotten. Some of those we
know are going to be out of
luck after the depression lifts
with every indication that this
will not be far away. Think
it over. It is rather unfair to
ask a man TO ruin his own
credit in order to help out his
patrons.

THUGS ENTERED
 HOSPITAL AND
 CAUSED TERROR
Trey Beat Up Gatekeeper With Guns-But Their Real Purpose Is Mys- tery

Boston, Jan (UP)--rwo thugs one clad in a raccooncoat, entered City hospital early today, terrorized attaches and patients with threats. severely beat the gatekeeper with the butts of their guns, and escaped in a taxi-cab. Though their exact mission was a mystery, authorities believed the pair had planned to rob either safe containing pa tients' valuables, or q room where narcotics are stored. The gate keeper. William Fl. Slney, 5O, suf. fered q deep wound on the face. an eye injury, scalp lacerations. and possible concussion of the brain when he remonstrated with the surly gunmen.
 It was shortly before 3 a. m, when the pair entered. One asked treatment for cut on his face, and Dr George Mullins obliged. The pair then became abusive, and when Edward McDermott, an att tendant, tried 10 quiet them, one warned: "You'll get yours if you come too close" A few moments later Siney, who had heard the disturbance, appeared and asked the two men to leave quietly be- cause they were disturbing the pa- tients. The men then assaulted the gatekeeper and fled.

 Bombay, India, Jan 2-(U. P)- Mahatma Gandhi packed his shawl and loin cloths to-day and was ready to go to jail after an im- mense crowd had waited outside his residence all night to witness his arrest.
 Members of the executive com mittee of the Indian National Con- gress expected arrest after ordering resumption of the civil disobed- fence campaign and the boycott against English goods.
 The crowd that kept the vigil all night was replaced by day shift soon after dawn. Gandhi obviously was surprised at the size of the gathering when he came out to get his morning newspaper at 4 a. m. He demonstrated with the crowd for keeping vigil over him but con- graduated them on their sanity and civility' in respecting the sleep of his neighbors.
 Meanwhile preparations for Gandhi's imprisonment had been carried out according to his in- structions, His faithful secretary, the English woman Miss Madeleine Slade, and Mrs Gandhi packed a kit containing a woolen shawl and a pair of loin cloths; cord upon which to hang laundry to dry; a canvas blanket and pillows; ten books including Bhagavad- Gita,

 Dr Alfred P.

Later, after AnketelIs body had been exhumed, the doctor suggested the riding master might have taken poison.
 Authorities first listed the death of Miss Cloutier as a suicide but Dr Bowen has insisted her death was accidental. Her body was found in her gas-filled apartment after she had attended Anketelrs funeral tho day before Christmas.
 No important developments in the investigation were anticipated pending receipt of the report of pr William r. Boos. Harvard toxicol- ogist to whom the vital organs of both the girl and the man have been submitted,

And Their Deaths Were Due to Almost Every Kind of an Accident

Chicago, Jan. 2.-CUP).-Violent death took heavy toll in the United States over the New Years holiday, with more than 100 victims, Uni- ted Press survey showed to-day.
 Deaths were due to almost every conceivable kind of accident. but as usual the automobile took the largest toll. Bad weather condi- tions and liquor were blamed for the death list.
 An automobile that plunged into the Calumet river in Chicago taking g persons to death was the most serious single accident record ed. Others with heavy death tolls were a head-on collision of an auto with a street car in Los and an airplan crash.
 Many were fatally shot in drink ing bouts, several poison liquor occurred. Other persons fell through the ice, and several suicide.

New York, Jan 2.--CUP)- three-fold terrorist plot aimed at Wall street, prominent Italians. high government officials. bankers and business men was pictured to-. day by postal inspectors investi-, gating a nationwide plot already fatal to three men. " ~, Working here and in Easton. Pa the government mems findings led to the opinion that the Wall street outrage was prevented last month when hundreds of New York police surrounded the financial center following information obtained by. federal operatives. The second step of the terrorists, agents believe, was the mailing in Ilaston of five internal machines. The men marked for death in this case were saved at the cost of three lives.
 As the forces of government agents, city and state police united to prevent completion of the third step in the apparently well-organ- 1 ized terrorist plot, definite clues were unearthed as to the identity of the Easton plotters. Ns The postofsce department devcl- oped the fact that the three men who mailed the internal machines
 in Easton Wednesday remained there overnight.
 Twelve pictures from Rogues' galleries were identified as resern- bling the three men. Harry Bra der. clerk at the hotel where the three stayed, and Rev r. T.

Whether Governor Cross will withhold action on naming the new judge until after a meeting of the state central committee is now the question being discussed. The req son for such action would have many answers, according to lead- CTS of the democratic party.
 Governor Cross and Mrs Fannie Dixon Welch of Columbia, acting chairman, held a conference yes terday and 1t was later announced that a meeting of the state central committee will soon be called. AS yet, he admitted, there Is no de- cision among the party leaders on who the man to be recommended for chairman is to be. The chair manship has been vacant since last May when P. B. O'Sullivan resigned to take 8 place on the superior court bench.
 Judge Yeomans, whose death has just occurred, was also chair man of the state central commit tee when he was named to the su- perior court bench. He, though, was named by Governor John II. Trumbull, 8 republican, while ANSo V 1AAAtNAA was AeAAASN " Governor Cross, the present in- cumbent and a democrat.
 It was claimed at the time that Judge Yeomans' appointment to the high court bench was made through republican circles after his party had "laid down. in a campaign against Governor Trum- bull. The "old guard" headed by Attorney Thomas J. Spellacy of Hartford and ex-Mayor David Fitzgerald of New Haven, were charged with selling out the party for the Yeomans' appointment.
 Now the Yeomans' place on the bench is vacant and Governor Cross and his chieftains, with Spellacy and Fitzgerald on the outside, are faced with the task of naming a new state chairman and also a superior court judge. It is possible that the "old guard" and "new guard" may be brought to- gether by the former being given one of the two selections. How ever, the Cross leaders desire to control both elections but fear overwhelming opposition on the
