AUTOMOBILE COLLI
SION NEAR MURRAY WITH
BUT LITTLE DAMAGE
From Tuesday "Daily.
A collision between two automobiles
is reported to have occurred on the
road near Murray yesterday after
noon. It seems that one of the ma
chines was coming into Murray from
Union and was just turning west onto
the main road into Murray, while the
other car was running from Murray
io this city. As the machines neared
each other the drivers both started to
turn out for each other and as they
did so saw that a collision was about
to occur and they attempted to turn
back into the roadway at the same
time, when the two cars were side
swiped, inflicting a good deal of dam
age to the machines, but not injuring
the parties in the cars. The one com
ing into Murray was driven by Don C.
I'hodeii. and had the fender mashed
up, as well as the axle of one of the
wheels twisted up some, while the car
of Harve Manners was only injured
in the breaking of a lamp and a few
bumps on the fender. - The affair was
purely accidental and no blarue is at
tached to either driver, as both were
endeavoring to get out of the way of
each other when they came together.

3E A LITTLE MORE CARE
FUL IN SWEEPING YODR
DIRT INTO THE STREETS
There is a practice among a great
nany people of sweeping everything
"rom their walks into the street and,
egardless of what it is and whether
t will do any damage or not. For
ome time there has been considera
le complaint of the large number of
acks and small nails that after be
ng used to fasten up signs or post
ers are dropped on the walks and
hence are swept into the street to
lecome a nuisance and a danger to
he horses and automobiles going up
nd down the main street of the city.
")nly yesterday one of our c'tizens
uffered a puncture to the tire of his
luto purely through the carelessness
f people sweeping these tacks into
he street and ouite a ioss of time as
ell as the expense ot repairing the
uncture was occasioned when it
vould have been just as easy in the
Irst place to have gathered up the
ack and thrown it where it would
lot occasion any damage or inconve
uence to passers by. There should
e an effort made to stop this prac
ice, if the safety of the automobiles
roing aloig the street are to be con
idered, and they certe.inly have some
ights that should be respected.
Cleanliness.
A clean man, even if poor, com
mands the respect of everybody,
while an unclean perton drives you
away from him. You are afraid of
him. Everybody should and can keep
zlean, not only externally, but also
nternally. If we allow undigestible
articles of food to remain in our
)ody and to poison our blood, we are
nviting disease. Keep the intestines
lean by using Triner's American
Elixir of Bitter Wine as soon as you

THE ELECTION BALLOT IS
ONE OF IMMENSE LENGTH
The form for the ballot at the com
ing November election has been re
ceived at the office of County Clerk
Frank J. Libershal from the secretary
of state and will certainly be a
lengthy one, as in addition to the long
list of candidates for the different of
fices there are a number of constitu
tional amendments and propositions
brought up under the initiative and
referendum act to be passed upon by
the voters. The Fort Kearney Me
morial armory appropriation will be
submitted to the will of the voters
as well as the employers' liability law
and the proposed suffiage amendment
to the state constitution. The propo
sition for the relocation of the state
university at the state farm is to be
submitted to the voters of the state
on a separate ballot a? well as will be
also the non-partisan judiciary ticket
which contains the names of the can
didates for supreme, district and
county judges. The clerk will pre
pare the list of county candidates to
be placed on the ballot and it will
then be ready for the printer to get
in readiness for the election. The
length of the regular tallot and the
different small ballots to be given out
to the voters will make the task of
voting a strenuous job this fall.
