FOREST fires are reported both east
and west Of the Cascade range OF
mountains. Those east are mainly
confined to Idaho, the timber being
aflame for many miles between Rath-
drum and Pend d. Oreille Lake. In
this State, big fires are raging in King,
Snohomish and Jefferson counties, and
at Bodie Mountain, southeast of North
port and at Usk. In British Column
bia also flames are playing havoc all
over the Kootenay country, and fumes
and tramways and other valuable
mining adjuncts have been destroyed.
Never since 1866, it is claimed. have
forest fires been more general, owing
probably to the long dry-spell in June
aud July.

of trumpets that our worthy townsman,

will not vote the Democratic ticket and
will hereafter affiliate with his old
time love, the Republican party.
While'it is at all times sad to part with
such good natured and intelligent
comrades as the Grand Duke OF Kan

Election that our loss is somebody else's
gain. Mr.. Moore, if we remember
rightly, fused with the Democrats as a
Silver Republican, and that fusion
lasted just one campaign, and since
then he has been wandering around,
like Japhet in search OF Father, to
find paternal ancestor, or some other
confding guardian, who might wish to
adopt an altogether tractable and en-
tirely confiding ward. Well, be it so!

GETTING VOTERS OUT
Parties Postpone Meetings for
Registration Work

This being the last registration day
the political efforts will be largely con-
fined to getting out the vote, there be-
ing no meetings scheduled for this
evening.
: All the poll books were placed in the
hands of the election judges. yesterday,
the necessary supplies furnished, and it
in the county will depend upon the
number of votes registered during the
day. At the Republican county head
placed as low as 1900, while at Demo-
cratic headquarters 1t is confidently
predicted that the number will exceed
5000.
On Tuesday a few more than 1900
women registered for the purpose of
voting on the free text book charter
amendment, and there is every reason
to believe that the number registered
in the entire city will not exceed 5000.
Up to this time it is evident that the
women who have registered are mostly
opposed to free text books, but the Ia
Dor unions promise to make a showing
today A great many of the workers
have the afternoon off, and say they
will put in the time getting out the
woman vote favoring the amendment.
The firemen, policemen and the en-
ployes of the city engineer are well or
ganized for the purpose of making
canvass for voters favoring the amend
ments in favor of their departments
If the city employees take the interest
expected of them the total vote will be
somewhat increased.

TAILOR STEALS WHEEL:
GOES TO WORKHOUSE
Simon FegIeson Draws Ninety Days
for Taking Bicycle

Simon Fegleson, a tailor at Eighth
and Wacouta streets, arrested Thurs
day by Officer Peterson on complaint of
William Carlson, 332 East Thirteenth
street, who charged him with stealing
bicycle, was found guilty of petty
larceny in the police court yesterday
and sentenced to ninety days in the
Workhouse.
Last spring Carlson's wheel was
stolen from in front of a saloon on
Seventh street. Thursday he noticed
the wheel standing in front of a restau-
rant on East Seventh street, and after
examining it came to the conclusion
that it was his own. He entered the
restaurant and asked for the owner of
the wheel Fegleson responded and in
the argument that followed offered to
take Carlson to the shop where he had
purchased the wheel. They started up
the street and at Wabasha and Sew
enth Fegleson ran into a dry goods
store through the Wabasha street en-
trance. Carlson cried out to Officer
Peterson to arrest the man.
F'egleson attempted to prove yester-
day that he had purchased the wheel
from a man who entered his shop two
weeks ago.
Judge Hine ordered llirl TO pay fine
Of 500 or serve ninety days in the
workhouse. He was unable to pay.

URCEWACONL LICENSE
Good Roads Advocates Would
impose 1t on Vehicles

At the meeting Of the joint city coun-
Gil committee on good roads yesterday
Gustave Scholle proposed that an ordi-
nance be passed licensing vehicles, and
the sentiment was concurred in by
Chairman Schiffmann and Comptroller
Betz.
'The person and firms who do most
damage to the streets in many cases
do not pay their proportion of the
taxes" said Mr.. Scholle. I'm many in
stances the wear is greatly increased
by the narrowness of the tires on the
wagons, and l believe that a measure
should be passed. If it is within the
power of the council, licensing all We
hicles according to their carrying
weight and the width of the tires.
''On some of the dirt streets heavy
loads are hauled and the narrow tires
cause deep ruts. If there is not now a
way in which the width of the tires can
be regulated and the vehicles compelled
to pay at least portion of the damage
done we should go to the legislature
and secure the authority"
Il have often thought that the We
hicles should be taxed" said DR.. Schiff-
mann, "but there are many difficulties
in the way of carrying out the idea. If
it can be done l am thoroughly in favor
of imposing a license or a tax. Large
amounts are annually spent in cleaning
the streets. and much of the refuse is
due to wagons and horses and I be-
lieve that the persons using the We
hicles and the horses should be COM
PEELED to pay the charge and assist in
keeping the pavementS in repair"
Such a measure would seem to me
to be just" said Comptroller Betz, "and
some means should be found by which
the plan could be put in force"

CHANCE FOR AMES.
Pardon Board to Take Up Fred
w. on Monday

On his return from Wisconsin yester-
day Gov Van SAINT issued a call for an
adjourned meeting of the state board OF
pardons for Monday afternoon at the
capitol. The meeting will be executive
to consider a number of applications which
were presented to the board at its quar-
terly meeting three weeks ago, and on
which evidence was taken.
The Fred w. Ames case, it is said viii
be considered at the meeting. Ames has
applied for a Communication of his SEN
tence, and his case has been before the
board for some time. He is now a wit
ness at the trial of his brother, former
Mayor A. A. AmeS. at Minneapolis, but
it is reported that strong representations
will be made to the board in his behalf
by leading Minneapolis citizens and Of
ficials.
The Fergus Falls train robbers, the four
men who are serving twenty-year SEN
tences at Saltwater on conviction of hav-
ing held up a Great Northern train at
Carlisle nearly five years ago, will pre-
sent their petitions for pardon before the
board at its Monday meeting. Grave
questions of the guilt of the men have
been raised by county officials who were
instrumental in securing their convic-
ton.
The FitZsimmonS murder case from
Pine county. will also come before the
board, and there are three or four minor
cases to be disposed Of.
