PLUMBERS WILL BE KEPT BUSY Alliance Hoard of Health Taken Ac Hon that Will Compel Mak ing Hewer Connection City officials who wish to perform their official duties faithfully and at the same time not be too hard on citizens who are negligent, some times find themselves, if not exactly "between the devil and the deep blue sea, in a position where to do or not to do becomes a serious question. The board of health of the city of Alliance found themselves in some such predicament when they took up the matter of sanitation in the busi ness section of the city. Alderman Romlg, chairman; Dr. Bellwood, city physician; Mayor Rodgers and Chief of Police Jeffers, composing the board of health, made a round of inspection the first of the week, with the result that a general order was Issued to connect up with the sewer in the business section, on both sides of Box Butte avenue, from the Burlington station north. The Herald has no desire to "butt In" affairs not its own, but cannot refrain from commending the action of the board of health in this mat ter. After all, sewer connection must be made sooner or later, and why not make it at once and con serve the public health while saving the expense incurred by the use of cesspools? Over 700 head of horses, with to tal sales of approximately $40,000, was the result of the sale held by the Alliance Horse and Mule Commis sion company last Thursday and Fri day. This is the first of three sales to be held this year. The second sale will be held July 30 and 31. Those who sold horses at the sale were: C. C. Palmer of Torrington, Wyo.; L. L.

After the colonel's lecture la Lon Joa It will be the British empire fault if it goes wrong. re altogether too many who evade it. It was the advocacy of the square deal. In theory, that gave to ex-Pres ident RooBevelt much of his popular ity; it was the seeming evasion of the practical application of the square deal In handling problems of government affecting some or bis political advisers and supporters that has lost to him much or his former popularity. It is because we have believed in the sincerity of W. J. Bryan in bis advocacy of equality before the law. more than because of his wonderful talent and ability, that we have ad mired him during the past twenty years or more. It has been because of his determined stand ror the rights of the common people, and not because of his party name, that The Herald has, under Its present editorship, stood by the Bryan ban ner. In the face or the most bitter opposition. Any man who sincerely believes in the square deal and has the courage to express his convictions, no matter what his party name may be. is de serving or commendation. The prin ciple or a square deal ror all. special privileges ror none, is true democ racy. Men pass away, advocates or right things may change, but right princi ples wll lendure forever, and when understood will continue, popular with the people as they are now. It is encouraging to note the large num ber of American voters who have come to placing loyalty to principle above fealty to party. There are thousands of voters who. believing in the square deal, would rather, thru the exercise ot the elective fran chlae. further the rights of the peo ple than serve a party boss.
