The claim of Sheriff Quinton and morning for Lincoln, where she will
his friends is that the charges made 8Pend the day
by the Journal that Sheriff Quinton
nas not compnea wun tne iaw in re- i
porting his fees "earned and collect
ed," and has not complied with the
law in appointing his deputy sheriff,
is, that it is all done for political
effect and that there is no founda
tion for such charges. The Journal
has repeatedly quoted the law and
has called attention to the record
made by Sheriff Quinton himself, and
has challenged an examination of the
law and the sheriff's records. It is
not what the Journal has charged so
much as what the law demands and
what the records show and the
charges made by the Journal are
based upon the law and these re
cords. Let any voter or taxpayer ex
amine the records of the county
clerk's office and see if he can find
any appointment "in writing" of Eli
Manspeaker as deputy sheriff or of
any other person deputy sheriff by
Sheriff Quinton. Let such voter or
taxpayer further search these records
and see if he can find any record of
any bond given or oath taken by Eli
Manspeaker or by any other person
as deputy sheriff under Sheriff Quin
ton. Let any voter; any taxpayer
of the county examine Sheriff Quln
ton's two reports filed with the coun
ty clerk on October 19, 1909, and
learn whether he has collected
$586.77 fees, from April 6, 1909 to
October 5, 1909 fees that belongs
to the taxpayers of Cass county.
Then go to the treasurer's office and
learn whether Sheriff Quinton has
paid this $586.77 to the county treas
urer as the law requires.
Again. Let any voter any tax
payer go to the county treasurer's
office and learn whether Sheriff Quin

collected" from April 6. 1907 to

No other remedy can be compared
with Raxall Orderlies for the easy,
pleasant and successful treatment of
constipation. The active medicinal In

entirely new discovery. Combined
with other valuable ingredients, It

and agreeable action. They do not
cause griping or inconvenience, and
may be taken at any time, day or
night.
We particularly recommend Rex
all Orderlies for children and for deli
cate or aged persons, because they do
not contain anything injurious. Un
like other preparations, they do not
create a habit, but instead they over
come the habit acquired through the
use of ordinary laxatives, cathartics,
and harsh physic, and remove the
causes of constipation or irregular
bowel action that are not of surgical
variety.
We want you to try Rexall Order

More are needed, however, and all
those knowing of persons wanting
employment in the factory are urged
to either bring or send in theif
names to him at once. As the fac
tory will be opened in a very short
time it is desired that all names be
sent in and the persons hold them
selves in readiness for work In a few
weeks at the utmost.
Secretary Wescott of the Commer
cial Club desires it understood that
the positions with the Smith factory
are open to the girls and women of
Cass county and are not conllned to
PlattBmouth. He states that the
Commercial Club and the merchants
do not seek to confine the good ef
fects of the new factory to the town
but wants those in the country who
desire places for ler girls to notify
him bo that their names can be add
ed to the list. It is especially desir
able that this be done at once and the
telephone can be used for this pur
pose. The list 1b quite large now but
there is still room for a number of
others and it is especially desirable
that those who are anxious to work
enroll at once. Those living within a
reasonable distance of the city who
care to have their girls work In the
factory and live at home should let
him know at the earliest possible
moment whllo those at a distance, who
desire to have their girls plnced in the
list and who care to have them board
