Show f Everbob'8 IRumtnator In which anyone and everyone is invited to express their opinion opin-ion about anything and everything every-thing that will help Milford so long as they "don't cuss no one out" that privilege is reserved. e. " - Ruminator is turning the column col-umn over to "Letters to the Editor" Ed-itor" this week. Quite a few notes which were worthy of more space in The News were laid over from week to week until un-til they're sort of stacking up. So we'll briefly mention'them in Ruminator, and hope we haven't offended any of our good readers read-ers by holding them so long. First, we should call our readers' read-ers' attention to the very happy countenance of Postmaster Rudolph Ru-dolph Nielsen, which appeared on the front page of the second section of the Deseret News during dur-ing the Centennial Celebration in Salt Lake. The postmaster was evidently swapping stories with a visiting big-wig from the east, and judging from the size of the smiles, the other guy's joke must have been the funniest. fun-niest. The "big-wig" was Robert R. Gros, San Francisco advertising executive. Speaking of Rue reminds 'us that we received a notice a few days ago, announcing the closing date for applications for stenog-' stenog-' rapher-typist examinations, for ' employment in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming, has been extended to August 11. Mrs. Raines, at the post office, can give full information. : One of our readers really told us off because Milford was deader than a dodo on the 24th. We figured that because of th.e big celebration in Salt Lake and the excellent race meet in Beaver the local officials who usually spend their 24th and a few days before the 24th arranging ar-ranging a good time for others, had decided to forego the celebration cele-bration this year. But for the sake of our personal peace of mind, we hope they don't skip it next year. i. t,.y. On July 11th we received the following: "Ye Editor: Dear Sir: Quote: "Due to the newsprint shortage, says a Utah newspaper, we postpone post-pone a number of births until next week." Unquote. Is it possible that you, and you alone, possess such omnipotent omnipo-tent power, or is it some editor a bit closer to God? If it be you then I am Admiringly yours, H. C. P. S. And if it be you you will be deluged with requests to . postpone some births indefinitely." indefi-nitely." No, thank goodness, Ruminator Ruminat-or has no such power. And if , " we had, we'd keep it a deep, dark . secret. We can't imagine anyone any-one not being really anxious to welcome little bundles from heaven, after sampling for some ' 7V2 years the joys they bring when they make such radical changes in the recipients' lives. Wonder how many people : have been noticing the almost daily "Coxey's Army" parade from the jailhouse to the justice court. 'Tis a fine job our marshal, mar-shal, Leon Williams, and our justice, O. C. Koch, are doing. Speaking of arrests reminds us of another complaint we heard 1 this week. Some four or five weeks ago a negro was apprehended appre-hended making a present of an . alcoholic beverage to an Indian. He was arrested and incarcerated, incarcerat-ed, along with the Indian who ; was held at a material' witness, and the alcoholic beverage was confiscated and held as evidence, i As we get it, the negro and Indian In-dian were taken to the county seat, but no charges filed, because be-cause the next day the negro was back in Milford, telling the marshal, "You sho got a good bunch of officers over there they jus' saved me a year and a day in the pen." And one day last week a moral pervert a sexual moron, was arrested bv Milford officers. A youth was also held as a wit- , ness. Both were taken to the . county seat, and you guessed it the next day the prisoner was back in Milford, looking for an- . other victim. We talked with him and he told us '"They just took me over as a witness I ; don't know what happened but they turned me loose." And in any daily paper, the reader can learn of almost daily sex murders. Seems to Rumi- ; nator that when you get 'em is i a good time to keep 'em, and at ; (Continued on Page Four) 1 City Hospital.

So far as we can learn, there has been no explanation made to arresting officers of the failure of higher authority to prosecute these eases. We know the evidence evi-dence and witnesses were at hand when they left Milford. and to say the least, were very much surprised to see these persons walking our streets again a few hours after their delivery de-livery to county officials. We received the following let ter a week or two ago from Calvin Cal-vin Thompson, who is working at the Grand Canyon Lodge for the U. P. Many Milford readers will be surprised to learn of a serious fire down there, in which Calvin was injured. "I thought I would drop you a few lines to tell you hello, and how things are coming down here. I have been getting my Milford News every week, and it sure seems good to get a good paper from home to find out what is going on.
