The newspaper idiots of Phenix, who
framed the printing bill, passed by the
legislature last winter, should be cut off
fIpm all intercourse with the newspaper
fraternity Of the territory. The bill, as
passed, is the most absurd piece OF legie-

proprietary" prices for their space that
they thought would force these same
rates on theirIfraiernal brothers.

yesterday at noon and swore out the warrant
charging Simons with burglary. The warrant

up hunting for the man. The warrant will
probably be turned over TO the police. 1t is
said that at daybreak yesterday morning Simons
was seen hurrying along Grant street bridge
towards South Seattle.
Speaking about the affair Workman said to the
prosecuting attorney last evening: "simons en-
tered my house some time this morning early
and, finding his way to my bedroom, he immed-
lately proceeded to chloroform me and my wife.
After he had made sure that we would not

simons is a middle-aged man. His wife swore
out warrant month ago for the arrest of
Mrs Coleman, whom she charged assaulted her
adopted son. In spite of the fact that Mrs.
Coleman alleged that she simply spanked the
youngster because he was impudent and threw
stones at her, the justice imposed fine OF SIS
upon her.
1t is thought that simons cannot long elude
the officers.
