Baking Economy
By the use of perfect baking pow
der the housewife can derive as
much economy as from any other ar
ticle used in baking and cooking In
selecting a baking powder therefore
care should be exercised to purchase
one that retains its original strength
and always remains the same thus
making the food sweet and whole
some and producing sufficient leav
ening gas to make the baking light
Very little of this leavening gas
is produced by the cheap baking pow-
1 ders making it necessary to use
double the quantity ordinarily re
quired to secure good results
You cannot experiment every time
of chemically pure ingredients of test
the strength of your baking powder
to find out how much of it you
should use yet with most baking
powders you should do this for they
are put together so carelessly they
are never uniform the quality and
strength varying with each can pur
chased
Calumet Baking Powder is mace
of chemially pure ingredients of test
ed strength Experienced chemists
put it up The proportions of the
different materials remain always the
same Sealed in air tight cans Cal
umet Baking Powder does not alter
in strength and is not affected by at
mospheric changes
In using Calumet you are bound
to have uniform bread cake or bis
cuits as Calumet does not contain
any cheap useless or adulterating
ingredients so commonly used to in
crease the weight Further it pro
duces pure wholesome food and is a
baking powder of rare merit there
fore is recommended by leading phy
sicians and It complies
with all pure food laws both STATE
and NATIONAL The goods are
moderate in price and any lady pur
chasing Calumet from her grocer if
not satisfied with it can return it
and have her money refunded

Dr C L Fahnestock and H N

for the First ward and Lon Cone
and E F Osborn for the Second
ward
The committee on resolutions
then reported as follows
RESOLUTIONS
We believe that partisan politics
should not be inducted into munici
pal affairs but that individual fitness
personal integrity and a wilingness
to be guided bv the expressed wishes
of a majority of all the people
should characterize our public ser
vants and in the selection of city
officials these should be considered
in preference to their political affili
ation that the government of the
Mty is purely a business matter and
should be directed solely in the in
terest of all the people without con
cession to any special interests or
individuals
We recognize that McCook is a
rapidly growing community and the
business of the municipality is
steadily growing more difficult to
manage while the compensation for
this service is wholly inadequate
and the acceptance of city office en
tails some considerable sacrifice upon
the part of the officers selected yet
we demand on the part of the city
government an honest efficient and
economical administration such as is
consistent with the natural expansion
of the community and that the same
consideration hall be shown to its
most humble citizens as is extended
to its most powerful business and
financial interests
We demand a strict accounting of
the public funds such as would be
lequired in any business corporation
and that the people may know we
recommend that the accounts of the
city including those of the Loard of
education be examined by a compe
ent auditing committee and that
frequent reports of the citys finan
cial affairs be thereafter published
for the information of the public
We demand a strict enforcement
of the eight oclock closing law and
rigid regulation of all matters per
taining to the health and public
safety
Believing that public service cor
porations operating under franchise
granted by the people are entitled
only to such net profits on their in
vestments as after careful and thor
ough examination may be shown to
be just and reasonable we demand
that an inquiry be made into the
matter of telephone rates charged by
the Nebraska Telephone Co in the
city with the view of securing a
reduction of the scale should the
conditions be fhown to justify it
The following resolution was pre
sented the committee but they de
clined to report the same and it
was offered before the caucus as an
amendment
As a progressive people desiring
to be in the an of the best move
ments for better and more effective
government and believing that the
people should have a more direct
voice in the policies of the munici
pal government we favor the adop
tion of the initiative and referendum
which has been so efficient and popu
lar in the many towns and cites
where it has become operative
On a vote before the caucus the
amendment was lost by a small
majority

ticket
RESOLUTIONS
The following resolution was read
by the chair and after some warm
and earnest debate was adopted with
out dissent
We call the voters attention to
the fact that the board of education
of this district handles upward of
52000000 a year without giving
any account of the expenditures We
believe and insist that the rublic is
entitled to know what becomes of
this money especially in view of the
fact that the district is taxed to the
limit that the law allows and we
hereby promise that our members of
the board if elected will insist that
the proceedings will he published the
same as the commissioners proceed
ings or the city council proceedings
telling the public who gets their
money and what it is paid for
