WEAVER IS ALERT.
Notifies Voters That Interference by
Deputy sheriRs Is Unlawful.

Philadelphia, Nov. Mayor Weaver
today issued a proclamation to voters
calling attention to the fact that the
appointment of deputy sheriffs for ser
vice at the polls tomorrow is unlawful.
He calls upon all citizens to resist in
every way possible any efforts on the
part Of deputy sherihs to prevent them
from casting their ballots. This procla-
nation was made in consequence of the
report that Sheriff Miles, who is chair
man of the Republican city committee.
intended to appoint several hundred
deputies to guard the polling places to-
morrow.
Director Potter. of the department of
public safety, today appointed 500 spec
ia1 policemen to aid the regular force in
maintaining order at the polls. This
action was taken because of the claim
of the organization leaders that at roll
call tonight the police of three districts
will resign and refuse to do election
duty. While it is known that in several
districts some of the police are favor
able to the organization wholesale resig-
nations are not anticipated. In any
event Director Potter says the depart
ment has arranged to properly police the
city
Mayor Weaver today notified a surety
company which is on Sheriff Miles bond
for $50 600, that If the sheriff carries out
his intention Of appointing deputy
sheriffs to work at the polls he win be
performing an illegal act The mayor
adds that in the event of such Illegal
appointment the city viii proceed against
the sheriff's bondsmen-

LOCAL MENTION.

The force in the county clerks office
is busy on the little books which will
be furnished to the assessors for the
spring assessment. The books contain
a copy from the records of all OF the
taxes paid in the county last year, with
q view of furnishing the assessor with
information as to the amount of taxes
which should be due this year. A man
who paid taxes on five thousand dol
lars valuation last year and offers to
turn in but half Of that amount this
year is very liable to be confronted with
his last years statement and asked for
an explanation as to the deficit.
Col. E. c. Little OF Abilene is in the
city this week as an attorney in the
case OF Gallup VS.. the Kelly Atkinson
Construction company wlssch is being
tried in the district court today. 1t is
alleged that the plaintiff in the case was
injured through the negligence of the
Construction company and he is asking
that he be awarded $4,000 damages.
All the Methodist churches of the city
will hold revival services this evening at
the First Methodist church. Harry Prib-
bic will sing 1.-The Man OF Galilee'' to
the tune of Annie Laurie.
The condition of Weather Observer
r. B. Jennings, who has been confined
at his home for several days with
typhoid fever. is quite serious and his
family fear that the crisis has not yet
been reached.
W. S. Fitzpatrick and T. Dumont
Smith state senators, were both in
Topeka today on legal business.
Judge Pollock and the force of the
