1t Is Thought That the Slay-
er of PatrOlman j. H.
Smith Is at st. Louis
DETECTIVE GIVES IDEA
Says Only Three Suspected
Men Have Been Arrested
During a Year Of Search
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
IO16 Broadway, Sept. 21.


David Kiniry, the suspected slayer
of Policeman James II. Smith, is
supposed to be in st. Louis. The
police have made a special request
through the department there to keep
a close lookout for the fugitive. 1t is
the belief of Detective Denny Holland
that Kiniry will be located in the
neighborhood of the Missouri metrop-
oils, which was his home.
An even $1,000 awaits the person who
shall cause Kiniry's arrest. For nearly
a year the Oakland police have been
working to find some trace of the muir
derer. Not a substantial clew has been
obtained during all of the months that
have passed since Smith was killed
after placing Kiniry and his compan-
ion Goldstein under arrest as suspected
burglars in the Lakeside district.
In the battle Goldstein and Smith
both lost their lives. Kiniry, an athlete
and expert wheelman, mounted BIZ
cycle and disappeared. This occurred
last November. Only three arrests have
been made of suspected men in the
United States since the excellent de-
scription OF Kiniry was sent broadcast
among the police departments and to
many other peace officers throughout
the country.
Kiniry, according to Detective Hol-
land, had a fondness for mingling in
city life Holland thinks that the st.
Louis attractions have been too strong
for the missing man to Withstand.
Quietly hunt has been made and will
be continued

AUuUST FIRST
Of San Eastern
 Expected to Begin

The following item Is from the Rail way Age construction department:
 "San Diego Eastern-Hugh T. Rich ards, C. E., San Diego, Cal, writes that preliminary svrveys have been made for this road from San Diego, Cal, to Yuma, Ariz., 2l0 miles, via National City, Otay, Campo, Silsbee and Imper- ial, and that the location is nov being made. It is expected to begin construc- ton by August 1. A. A. Purman, pres ident, San Diego, Cal"
 There is an interesting point in this the little sentence that tells about con struction August l. The railroad people have not said anything locally about A date for construction. It was generally supposed to be A little later. But the above is alleged to be from the pen Of Engineer Richards and lac surely ought to know.-San Diegan-Sun.

WATER SUPPLY DOUBLED
Over Thirty Thousand Inches Now
 Flowing lu Canals

During the last week there has been rapid rise in the water of the Colorado river, which has resulted in greatly in. Crcasing the now in the canals, whiclI are now carrying over 5000 miners inches of water. Tl,er Is nov, as rec suit, no indication of water shortage, and every farmer has all lie can possibly use.
 This abundant supply of water comes tn time to greatly benefit a large DOT tion of thc grain acreage. Cool weather has prevailed for some time, retarding the development of the grain, and as a result the harvest is further removed than would have been the case with or- dinary temperature at this season.
 Advices from the head waters of the Colorado are to the effect that there is not a big body of snow in the states the drainage of which enters the river. The summer overflow is, therefore, not expected to be nearly SO great as that of last year.
 The rise of the river at this time is seasonable. Within a month the river will spread out, below the international line, to width of about fifteen miles, and l50 GOO acres or more will be over flowed. This Is the regular summer delta duplicate of Lower Egypt.

County Board Meeting.

The county board of supervis-
ors convened In annual session at
the court house Tuesday after
noon, The principal business
transacted by the board in it's
session Tuesday and Wednesday
was the apportionment of the
county and state tax among the
various towns and agreeing on a
contract with sheriff for the ensu
ing two years, Shereiff elect
Hanson introduced proposition
to the board agreeing to transact
the business of his office for a sal
AIRY of 81, 500 and to enter into a
contract with the board to board
all ''vags' that may be sentenced
to the county jail for $500. The
board could not reach an agree
ment on this proposition, object
ion being on the $500 for the
board of Migrants. Upon exam
alton of the records it was found
that each of the sheriffs that have
held the office since the old fee
system had been abolished had
been given the same kind of a con-
tract, although it was generally
understood that one sheriff in par
ticular had received only $500,
the objections were withdrawn.
1t was finally agreed to enter into
contract with Mr.. Hanson for
sum of So a year, be agree
ing to do, or to have his deputies
perform all of the work in the
county which has heretofore been
done by the constables.
After fixing the apportionment
of the county tax the board took
recess until the Doth of the
month.
The total county and school tax
to be raised this year is $38, gal.
20. OF this amount Eagle River
pays SO per cent, or $13, 842.29

I'm an old time Lumber Tack,
Reddy Thomas is my name
I'm locked up in the county Jail,
But I'm happy just the same.
They complain, l had no right to
vote
Upol election day;
But upon what grounds they base
their claims
Is more than | can say. y
Perhaps I SIN too old to vote,
Perhaps not old enough.
To challenge me on other grounds
Would simply be a bluff.

For eighteen years or more.

And blow in every dime;
And in Woodruff and Minoc qua
Is where l have my time.
f voted at Minocqu
On November 9Th, It's true.
Which as a good American citizen
had a perfect right to do.
They bound me over to the circuit
court.
And held me here for trial.
Altho l We been treated wrong
My face still wears a smile.
And now the court has been ad-
journed-
My case has been postponed,
And like criminal | must linger
For six months in this tomb.
Bat I'll make the best OF the stu.

If l only have plenty of tobacco
And my old clay pipe to smoke.

CONTROL OF CONGRESS.

The division of the two parties
in the present congress gives 70
Republican majority in the SEN
ate and 80 in the house. In the
seth congress the Republicans
will have the largest house major
ity in their party history. In the
first war congress, the thirty sew
enth, in 1891, the Republicans
had 1O6 members, the Democrats
AZ. and the War Democrats %.
Only 40 Democrats--the low wa
fer mark-to I45 Republicans
were members in the thlrty-ninth.
The Republicans held control OF
the house from the close OF the
civil war until the forty-fourth
congress elected in 1874, which
had I6S Democrats and log he
publican members. The succeed
ing congresses had Democratic
majorities in the house. Then a
Republican congress succeeded.
Then followed three Democratic
congresses, one Republican, one
Democratic and then the ffty-sec-
ond congress with a Democratic
majority of 156. The fifty third
congress was Democratic by s4'
and since then the Republicans
have had uninterrupted control OF
