It needs repairs. Even then you can't depend on it. to keep the house healthfully warm and com fortable. In actual dollars, a worn out furnace costs more than a new one. Buy a WEIR. Furnace and the savings in fuel alone will pay for it. Many WEIR Furnaces have been in actual service for from 30 to 40 years (a fact which speaks for itself.) If you don't know about the WEIR come in and let us explain its advantages and features to yoa. You may make the old furnace do. but you'll speed more than you save. Thm WEIR Funiac Made of Steel.

Juneau The charge that the votes of illiterate Indians have been mar shalled to rule the white population of Alaska entered into the campaign for election of the territory's repre Eentative in cngress. Dan A. Sutherland, republican, of Juneau the incumbent, has been the target of the attack against the In dian voters. He i3 opposed by Tho mas A, Marquam, Fairbanks lawyer, running on an independent ticket. Prank A. Boyle of Juneau, withdrew from the race after receiving the democratic' nomination, and asked that his adheranie. vote vote for Mar quam. Marquam is generally supported by republican federal office holders, who have charged that Sutherland betray ed his constituents by allowing re ports of unrestrained vice in the ter ritory, voiced in congress, to go un answered. Only in the first judicial district which is the southeastern section of Alaska, have the Indians voted to any appreciable extent in past elections. Those who' have voted s'upported Sutherland virtually to a man. Suth erland's opponents said that the In dians have been banded together by a half-breed for political purposes. With the Eskimos of the northern part of the territory, the Indians com prise about 50 per cent of the popu - lation. Sutherland has centered his attack on what he characterizes a salmon fishing monopoly and to charging that federal office holders have con spired against him. He opposed re nomination of Alaskan officials who were involved in the vice charges. Alaska is normally republican, but pary lines have been forgotten many times in recent elections. Persons seeking election to the territorial legislature are doing so with their opposition or support of Sutherland as their chief issue. The territory's only representa tion in congress is the one -delegate, . who may speak but has no vote.' CARDINAL PLAYERS GET $5,584.51 EACH ARMOUR & CO. Cream Station Main Street Opposite Journal Office Highest Market Prices Paid at All Times for Your POULTRY EGGS CREAM Louis Leiner Local Manager Plattsmouth - Nebr. 3 New York, Oct. 12. The world's series melon was cut Monday. Leslie O'Connor, secretary to Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis, delivered the checks for the Yankee players at the Yankee offices and put the checks for the Cardinal players in the re gistered mail. In spite of the fact that the seven game argument between the Yankees and Cardinals set new records for re ceipts and attendance, the ehecks to the individual contending players were much smaller than the amounts the winning Yankees and the losing Giants drew down in the series of 1923. This is due to the fact that the fourth place clubs were declared in on the split since the Yankees fough the Giants, and also because the Yankees and Cardinals this year cut their share of the prize money into more individual full shares than us ual. The Yankees voted every eligible player in their list a full share. Each eligible Yankee player re ceived a check for $3,388.28. and each Cardinal player $5,584.51. George Herman Ruth has an am bitious program mapped out for the next few months. He will .play in exhibition games aronnd the smaller towns until the end of the month, and then he will elevate the vaude ville stage for a mere matter of $100,- 000 or so.

With a least thirty-five broadcast ng stations in operation in the Chi cago area, Inter-station interference has been gradually Increasing. This situation became more pronounced early in the summer with the an nouncement of the department cf commerce, after the failure of con gress to pass a radio law, that It had ! no authority over broadcasting. Since then several new stations have come on the air and others have taken wave lengths other than those to which they were originally assigned by the department. ITALY DENIES WAR RUMORS Washington, Oct. 11. The Italian embassy Sunday issued a denial of the article published Saturday in- Daugherty and Miller both seem' ed quietly jubilant over the disagree-i ment. United States Attorney Buck ner, who prosecuted' the case, said that he would not decide about a re trial for a month at least. I The former government officials were charged with conspiring against the government under inducement of "hypodermic injections of graft" ap plied by the late John T. King, re-f publican national committeeman from Connecticut. Richard Iflerton, German copper magnate, who came to this country to obtain release of the assets, testi fied at the trial that he paid. King a fee of -441,000 to put his claim thru government offices. It was alleged that King did this by passing part of his fee, paid in Liberty bonds, to Daugherty and Miller, "reaching"; them thru Jess W. Smith, Daugherty's political handy man. Of these Liberty bonds the government traced $50,000 to Miller's brokerage accounts and $174,000 to the Midland National bank, of Washington Courthouse, O., which was operated under the presi dency of Mai S. Daugherty, the form er attorney general's brother. ... Borah Wants An Inquiry Washington, Oct. 11.
