DISCUSSING

CLIQUE GOVERNMENT
ALIAS GOOD GOVERNMENT
The Clique was never more aptlv
defined than in he words of the
old Quaker to his wife when he
said: “Martha, ail the world ar*
queer excepting thou and me, and
sometimes methinks thou are a
: little queer.’’
Every- voter sees the Clique so
plainly outlined, in the resucitated
“Good Government Club.” Every
citizen has observed them nursing
into existence their “child,” the so
called “Good Government Ticket,”
to the lullaby of, “Ketchikan, all
the world art queer excepting then
(Ketchikan) and me (G. G. Club.)
and sometimes methinks thou (Ket
hikan) arf a little queer.”
The exclusiveness of the so-call
ed “Good Government Club” is of
the tugging at ones own bootstraps
variety. It is not an exclusiveness
' of quality, but merely of quantity

SAYS HE has FOUNT)
CAUSE FOR EPILEPSY
ST. JOSEPH, Mo.. March 24—
. The discovery of a germ he as
-erted caused epilepsy was announc
! ed by Dr. C. A. L. Reed of Cin
cinnati in an address before the
meeting of the Medical Society of
the Missouri Valley. The germ was
! the bacillus epiieptius. and the
speaker asserted that like the germ
] of lockjaw it probably exists in the
soil and' enters the body through tlw>
1 stomach and intestines, where it
I continues to live.
“This discovery of the real eauss
: and nature of epilepsy,” said Dr
j Reed, “points not only to cure, but
, to prevention. While it brings a
! brighter day to the heretofore hope
! less epileptic, it ought shortly to
relieve the state- of much of the
i heavy and rapidly growing burden.”
