SOLDIER POLICE
AIM THEIR GUNS
AT BOOTLEGGERS
Frequent Violations of Law
ProhibitingSale of Liquor
to Men in Uniform Report
ed in Omaha.
Frequent violations in Omaha of
Uncle Sam's orders prohibiting the
sale of liquor to soldiers, coupled
with an increase in disease among the
men at Fort Omaha and Fort Crook,
have resulted in redoubled efforts to
eliminate these two dangers. For
this purpose a body of military po-

men absent from their post on pass.
A number of arrests of bootleggers
and immoral women have been made
by the military police. Last week
tight bootleggers wers held under
bonds ranging from $500 to $1,500,
tnd seven women have been arrested.
Of these, two have been sent to the
county hospital for treatment.
When released they face another
trial in federal court for improper
conduct and misuse of their living
quarters in violation of the president's
order setting aside a 5-mile district
surrounding each military post where
men are in training.
Captain in Charge.
Captain J. J. Kingsbury of Fori
Omaha is in command of the military
police and he has a sufficient force of
men under his command to patrol he
entire city. '
"Conditions here in Omaha have not
been of the best," said the captain,
"and we are doing everything in our
power to protect the men. The men
who have been selling this so-called
booze should be prosecuted for ob
taining money under false pretenses
after conviction on the bootlegging
charge, for the stuff is rank poison.
,We are not planning any wholesale
raids or arrests but will keep on the
job."
Colonel Hersey stated that condi
tions here are not noticeably worse
than in other cities, but that he is tak
ing every precaution for the protec
tion of the men. "Omaha is classed
as a clean - city from the military
standpoint," he said, "but we have to
look out. In cantonments where the
men have to take a car line for a long
interurban ride before reaching the
city a patrol at the car line is all that
is necessary to keep men from leav
ing the post without a pass, but here
it is different. A man who goes over
the fence is right in Omaha.
Omaha Police Co-operate.
"The police are co-operating with
us in every way and we expect to
stop this leaving the post without a
pass."
Federal officers are working with
the military police.
"We pass our days building up the
men," said a Fort Omaha officer,
"and these bootleggers and women
devote their nights to tearing them
down and taking their money away
from them. It should be, and is go
ing to be, stopped."

LEMONS WHITEN
THE COMPLEXION
Any woman can make up this
creamy beauty lotion for
- a few cents
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint of the most re
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
email jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lemon palp gets in, then this lo
tion will keep fresh for months. Ev
ery woman knows that lemon juice
is used to bleach a darkened skin
and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan and is
the ideal skin softener, whitener and
beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint of this sweet
ly fragrant lemon lotion and massage
it daily into - the face, neck, arms
and hands. -Advertisement.
POLITICAL
"Tha Allies" May B Campaign
Nam ei Anti-AdmlnUtrattoo Croup
SHRAPNEL
They're off I
The anti-administration group of
candidates for the election on May
7 has adopted a platform which will
be submitted to the voters within a
day or so over the signatures of Ed.
P. Smith, W. G. Ure, Roy N. Towl,
J. Dean Ringer, Henry F. Wulf and
Harry B. Zimman. This group has
not selected a campaign name, but Mr.
Smith jokingly suggested, "The Al
lies. An executive committee is
being formed and a location sought
for headquarters. A public meeting
committee will arrange for speaking
dates.
The "Allies," mentioned above,
Thursday afternoon decided to make
the run with a slate containing only
the six names adopted in the plat
form. The six men have had "their
heads together" for several days try
ing to figure out who the seventh
candidate would be, but have now
agreed that none others are wanted.
Mayor Dahlman has returned from
Excelsior Springs, where he rejuven
ated himself for the campaign. "I
don't know what the city hall situation
is or will be insofar as a lineup is con
cerned," he said. I will probably have
something to say Friday." He would
not commit himself as to whether he
would make the race alone or on an
administration ticket. He will invite
the city commissioners into a con
ference to discuss the situation.
W. F. Baxter has decided "to ac
cept the chairmanship of the cam
paign committee of the anti-administration
candidates.
"We wish to deny rumors that we
are for blue laws," remarked4one of
the anti-administration combination
of candidates. "We have no desire to
interfere with the present mode of liv
ing, particularly with reference to
Sunday activities and reports to the
contrary have been circulated only
for the purpose of discrediting our
candidacies."
"I wish to announce that I will un
der no circumstances be alligned with
the city hal. ticket," stated Commis
sioner Butler. Rumors have been fre
quent that he would be on the admin
stration ticket. "How could 1 con
sistently be on this ticket when you
consider my official record of recent
years?" he asked. Whether Butler
will be on the slate of the antis, is
still uncertain. He said he may go it
alone, which seems to be probable.
Ed. T. Smith and several of his as
sociated candidates spoke on Q street,
in the packing house district at noon.
Candidates are being quizzed and
examined on all sorts of matters. They
have been asked to go on record as
to their views on vaccination, gar
bage and many other subjects.
Have you registered? The election
commissioner's .office is open every
day for revision of the registration
and the books for the election on May
7 will be closed on Saturday, April 27.
Those who have changed their resi
dences since the last election must
have their registrations revised to be
eligible to vote on May 7.

Frank Rossiter. formerly an Oma

quartermaster corps last January, ar
rived here Wednesday on a seven
day furlough. He was with the motor

was full of interest and excitement.

t ws si n fer Victor
We have made a start on the
long hard road to Victory.
Our men are fighting at the
front in France.
Our American industries
have accomplished prodigious
results in building up a war
machine to furnish munitions
and supplies.
But we have only begun.
We must do more and more.
This is not a war of armies
but of nations in which every
citizen must do his part.
Every worker in our indus
tries is truly fighting in this
war. Every man, woman and
child who gives, of substance
and savings is adding to the
national power.
The foundation of all our
vast war-making machine is
the Liberty Loan.
Money is needed to build
more and more ships; to fur
nish food and guns and powder
and transport and airplanes; to
raise and equip new armies.
We must oversubscribe this
Third Liberty Loan and do it
quickly.
We must show the courage
that is in us.
We must show a cheerful
willingness to make sacrifices
for our boys in the trenches.

leads, blotches, eczema, and ringworm
tnd makes the skin clear and healthy.
!cmo ia a clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
lothing. It is easily applied and costs a
nere trifle for each application. It ia
