Two rooms In the west front of the quarters have been fitted up with bods and Mrs. Lvman Packer is the first patient to be taken care of The rooms formerly occupied by Dr. Henderson in the Union Block have also been tendered by Knudson Brothers and they will be used in case of need. The two quarters will give the city something like 14 rooms with one bed in each which ought to be ample to take care of all cases that are in need of this assistance. The change was made from the Fourth ward chapel because of the better convenience in these other buildings. HILLSTROM FUNERAL SERVICES.

Eliason, Brigham City County Surveyor K. C. Wright, Brigham City The Republican County Committee waits until this late date in order to take a swing at the statements made in the Democratic Platform, for the reason, as they stated "You have no time now to answer but they spoke too early in the morning. In the first place they state that they trust to their records to see them through. Very well we shall give them a little of their record. The statement in the Democratic Platform, which calls attention to the fact that the Republican County Commissioners wasted a large sum of money on road work between the time they were defeated in November 1916 until January 1st. 1917, is denied as untrtie. We ask why did the Republicans wait until they thought there was no time to answer before denying this charge? We ask every voter in Box Elder County to recall the waste of money which was thrown away in the dead of winter 1917, in order to get rid of of the road money before the Democratic Commissioners came in control of the Board. We ask every voter to go to the County Clerks office and turn to pages 313 of the Minutes of County Commissioners and find out it the following appropriations were not made on November 21st. 1917. Fielding $600, Box Elder Precinct r00. Garland $600, 10t0, Riverside East Garland $600, Willard $600, $btm. Bear River $400, Portage $."00, lioneyville $.700, Total $7200 ARE THESE FIVURES TRUE?

JUSTICE OF PEACE. We are proud to present the name of Henry M. Figgins for the Important Justice. Mr. position of Precinct Figgins has gained the reputation as the best Justice in Northern Utah. He is a man who deals out justice no matter where it hits and fearlessly upholds the dignity of the law. During the time he has held this Important post he has always been on the job. We call the voters attention to the fact that Judge Figgins can always be found and is at hand to come at a moments notice. The attorneys of the County are almost united in favor of continuing Mr. Figgins in office because of his good record, We call the attention of voters to the fact that this office calls the Justice out on inquests, which our candidate can attend to. We also cite the fact that Court can be held in the proper place and people will not be compelled to hold their pleading around a sick bed. Business io business and sentiment should not stand in the way of properly filling the okce. We know the Rep ublicon nominee is a fine ellow, but can he fill the office? Precinct Constable Christian Olsen will fill the bill ex- - s The statement of Chairman John D. Peters and Secretary Wm. J. Lowe of the result of the Fourth Liberty Ixmn campaign in Box Elder county and made to State Chairman lleber J. Grant, is such an interesting document and sets forth so concisely what this great county did, that the News asked permission to subllsh it, as follows: lleber J. Grant, State Chairman Liberty Loan Committee of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah. My Dear Sir: The Fourth Liberty Loan campaign is now closed, and we deem It proper to make a short report of the results in Box Elder County. We are sure that wpe never could have reached our quoto without the full support of our working organization in this county. We do not know that we ever approached a campaign of such importance and magnitude when such a feeling of indifference existed, and that the responsibility was the burden of the few, but after our commltties became aroused and were converted to the bigness of the thing they readily accepted the idea that rn Indivlual levy was the only way to raise the sum and the fact that a suggestive quota was given otcaeacflkgbjvvmthahthah was given to each individual Is the reason of our success The subscriptions that passed through the five Banks are as follows: Bank of Garland, No. Subscriptions 282, Amount $38,130 Oil.

There are many other railroad employees subscriptions for which we have had no credit The Telephone employees, Villadsen Brothers. Construction Company employees and others, have had no in dividual credit, which lack of data makes It difficult for us to give you the exact results. We are, however, over our quoto in amount and subscript ions. DISTRICT COURT POSTPONED. District Court, which was to have convened in this city tomorrow, has been indefinitely postponed because of the Illness of Judge Call. Notice will be given later when court will convene. Mrs. Dan W.
