ton to high license, so a proposition
was made to sidetrack the question by
offering to submit it t. vote of The
people. This was agreed to by those
present with the exception of M.
Buehman.
1t can therefore be anticipated that
when the question next comes up in
the council an effort will be made TO
Isubmit the question to a vote of the
people. The expectation is that Reid,
Anderson and Russell will favor this,
while Buehman, Barkley and Shand
will stand by their guns in favor of
passing the Buehman high license or
dinance. The casting vote of Mayor
Schumacher will be given in favor of
submitting the question to an election.
The question of high license was
considered at meeting of the execu-
tive committee of the Chamber Of
Commerce this morning. 1t is under
stood that all the members of the eX-
ecutive committee except one were il
favor of the Buehman ordinance, but 1t
was agreed to call a meeting of the
Chamber Of Commerce for tomorrow
night to consider the question and take
SuS1 o(L1Oh may NC OCCAAACo pAopCA
and necessary. 1t is expected that the
Chamber will decide in favor of high
license.
Billy Reid has abandoned the idea of
expelling Barkley and Shand from the
council. He discovered that he could
not make his wish effective. The law
says that members of the council
shall reside in the wards they are elect
ed to represent when they are elected,
but there is nothing in the act about
subsequent change of residence. Billy,
strange to say, instead of being law
! unto himself, took the advice of law
yers and dropped the matter.
There are ominous rumblings of dis
content among the respectable element
of the Republicans regarding Reid's S
assumption of party boss-ship. They
don't like to follow Billy's leadership,
and there is likely to be revolt. Re-
sponsible citizens have endeavored 10
keep the license question out of party
| politics, but Billy Reid has about
succeeded in identifying the Republican
party with the slums and dives. II

There will be a special meeting of
the council tonight, but the Old Al
calde, in calling it, took care to limit
the work to consideration of sewer
questions. 1t has generally been the
custom, when special meetings are
called, to say for a specific purpose
and such other unfinished business
as may be called up. But the Old
Alcalde, no doubt taking orders from
Boss Reid, limited the meeting called
for tonight to sewer matters exclusive
ly. Reid has not yet called a meeting
of the license committee, and it is un-
derstood that the mayor holds that the
chairman is the organ of the commit

THE GREAT POETS.
DO Not Study Them For Knowledge
Read Them For Culture.

DO Not Study Them For knowledge.
Read Them For Culture.
Young men and young women actual
" go to college to take course in
Shakespeare or Chaucer or Dante Or
the Arthurian legends. The course be-
comes a mere knowledge course. My
own acquaintance with Milton was
through an exercise in grammar We
parsed paradise Lost" Much of the
current college study of Shakespeare
is little better than parsing him. The
class falls upon the text like hens
upon bone in winter. No meaning
of phrase escapes them; every liDe
is literally picked to pieces. But of
the poet himself. Of that which makes
him what he is, how much do they
get? Very little, | fear. They have
had intellectual exercise and not an
emotional experience. They have add.
ed to their knowledge, but have not
taken a step in culture.
To dig into the roots and origins Of
the great poets is like digging into the
roots of an oak or maple the better to
increase your appreciation of the beau.
ty of the tree. There stands the tree
in all it's summer glory. VIII you real
ly know it any better after you have
laid bare every root and ro0tlet? There
stand Homer, Dante, Chaucer and
Shakespeare. Read them, give your
self to them, and master them if you
are man enough.
The poets are not to be analyzed;
they are 10 be enjoyed; they are not to
be studied, but to be loved; they are
not for knowledge. but for culture,
to enhance our appreciation Of life and
our mastery over its elements, ALI the
mere facts about a poets work are as
chaff as compared with the apprecia-
ton of one fine line or fine sentence.
Why study great poet at all after the
manner of the dissecting room? Why
not rather seek to make the acquaint-
ance of bis living soul and to feel its
power 2-~John Burroughs in Century.

Billy Reid Bosses the Re-
pubIlCdnS and Makes 1t
a Pdrty Issue
Caucus OF Republicans YESTERDAY
and a Meeting Of the CHAMBER
OF Commerce Called for
Tomorrow

The Republican politicians are try
ing to run away from the high license
question. Billy Reid has assumed the
by his direction an effort will be
made to avoid voting squarely on the
question in the council.
Yesterday afternoon caucus of Re-
publicans. was held at the office of
Roscoe Dale. 1t was the expectation
of the caucus to bulldoZe or browbeat
Councilman Buehman, but according
to all accounts it did not succeed.
The caucus was attended by Boss Billy
Reid, Mayor Schumacher, e. o. STRAIT
ton, George Cheney, H. Buehman, An
dres Rebel, Councilman Anderson,
Ramon Soto, J. M. Ormsby, Johnny
Wright, Kirt Hart and Roscoe Dale.
The work of the meeting was direct
ed at Councilman Buehman. It was
asserted that the passage of the high
license ordinance would hurt the Re-
publican party, as, the Republicans
being in a majority in the city council
the dive keepers would hold them re-
was passed. Mr.. Buehman argued
that it was not party question, and
only the dive keepers and their
friends were trying to make it a party
question. He held his ground firmly,
and declared that he intended to ca
what he believed to be his duty ire
spective of the views of those who at
tended the meeting.
It was evident that the party was
afraid to directly offend the decent
people of the town by openly declaring
partisanship for the dives and opnos:"
