held this lead all the way down the back

GAMBLERS
MUST LEAVE

SEATTLE. June 13.--GambIers who
moved from Seattle to Georgetown in the
belief that the games would be allowed to
run unrestricted there have had their
hopes dashed to pieces.
Armed with warrants for the arrest Of
eight gamblers squad Of deputy sheriffs
swooped down on the gambling houses Of
Georgetown Saturday, but found no games
in operation. The tables that had been
left out in the barrooms were covered and
the faro .layouts, chips and cards were
carefully stored away. A few cheap pine
tables were found and confscated One
roulette wheel was also taken by the Of
iicers.
AT the time Of the raid Hugh Higgins
was the only man charged with gambling
who could be found. The others had taken
a ''hunch" and stayed well under cover.
The raid was unsuccessful, but showed
the gamblers that they were not safe to
operate their games in the city Of George
town, even with its present liberal adj
ministration.
Apparently the raid had been tipped of
to the gamblers by someone close to the
office Of the prosecuting attorney or
sheriff. An effort win be made to find
where the leak is and stop it,
The officers say the fact that the gam
blers We're not caught win not deter them
from serving the warrants later. The edict
has gone forSi that the felony law must
not be violated in King county and the
fight is TO be continued until the last
gambler is put out Of business.

haps that would break the spell and In
duce other concerns to come here. The
talk about an independent telephone com
pany increasing the expense to business
men is rot. The experience of other cities
goes to show that where a second tele-
phone company comes in, competition soon
puts the rate where two telephones cost
no more than one.
eff an independent telephone company Is
permitted to come in here, large percent
age of the many thousands of dollars that
will be expended in installing the system
will be spent for labor and material In
this city. The main office will be here,
too, and its printing and everything else
like that will be done here. The offices
of the Sunset company are in California,
and every cent it can possibly send out
of Tacoma goes there.

TELEPHONE COMPANY AFRAID OF
LOSING MONOPOLY IN TACOMA

The Sunset Telephone company. which
nov enjoys a monopoly of the telephone
business in Tacoma, is making a great eff
fort to prevent the granting of franchise
to an independent telephone company.
Literature. several years old showing the
alleged failure of independent telephone
companies, is being circulated broadcast.
Some of the figures quoted may have been
correct when the circulars were first
issued, but at the present time they are
very much out of date. They neglect en-
tirely that there are in the United States
less than dozen cities of over 10000 in
habitants where an Independent telephone
system IS not in successful operation.
A well known business man sizes up the
situation like this

EARLIEST MAP-MAKING

The earliest examples of map-malling are
furnished by the Egyptians and Babylon
ians. Picture maps illustrating events as
early as 1900 years before Christ have been
found among the Babylonians, to whom
also belongs the credit of dividing the cir
Gle into degrees, minutes and seconds. The
Greeks developed this knowledge upon a
scientific basis Anaximander OF Miletus,
sixth century b. c., is credited with the
first attempt to draw map of the then
known world. The first school atlas was
issued in l724 in Germany.

chse, let it at least make the Sunset com
pany give us better service and rates and
pay tax on its gross earnings"
The Sunset company is violating the pro-
visions of its franchise in several parts
of the city in not painting its poles and
keeping them slightly The franchise pro-
yides that the first eight feet must be
painted black and the balance white. In
some of the residence districts the COM
pany has refused to paint its poles. though
frequently urged to do so. This with
unsatisfactory service and unequal rates,
are some of the reasons given for desiring
another telephone company
In South Tacoma, especially, public sem
timent is strongly in favor of the indie
pendent company. In that section of the
city the people are sick and tired of the
conduct of the Sunset company and would
welcome any measure that would afford re
lief.
