1t is evident that the various
East Minneapolis Improvement as
sociations are in earnest in their eff
forts to do the best possible for the
community and its improvement.
Allow me to suggest through this
mediu.a that the association take
up the matter of billboards' and
start a crusade against them. A
ride on any of the east-bound car
lines will convince the representa-
tives of these leagues that we have
too much of good thing in that
line. At every turn of the road our
vision is interrupted by some huge,
massive, atrociously-colored bill
board. They cheaper the aspect of
that part of the city which we know
as East Minneapolis. There is
hardly vacant lot or corner, where
some ungainly advertising scheme
does not form the connecting link
between houses and stores. In adj
dition to this every vacant store on
Central Avenue is plastered thickly
with dashy bill-boards, a custom
which certainly does not add TO the
inviting appearance of the streets"
Is there not a suggestion for River
Falls in this item from the Mime
apolis Journal? Would not our lit
tie city be more attractive without
the big posters and various adver-
tisements that are so conspicuous
in many places? The ladies of the
Improvement League have been agi-
Eating this matter for some time
and this clipping from city paper
shows them that they are in line
with the work in other places. Let
us discourage this defacing of ma
ture and try and induce those who
would advertise to do so through
the more effective channel of the
town papers, rather than on our
bridges, fences and vacant build
ings. IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE.

WOMAN, DECEITFUL WOMAN!

The New York Tribune is RESPONSE
BILE for the following:
"The European papers tell of a
curious custom among travelling
women. 1t appears that the women
when staying at hotels or the like
do not care to exhibit to the passers
along the corridors the exact size of
their feet so they carefully carry
with them couple of pairs of tiny,
delicate shoes, which, instead of the
ones they are wearing, they place out
side their doors for the servants to
take down and clean. All the big
boot shops in Paris now make spe-
cialty of this tiny footgear, and a
pair or two form a portion of the
trousseau of every up-to-date bride.
Madrid women are said to have the
smallest feet; Peruvian women come
next, and the American girls are a
good third"
The Tribune also remarks that
women's shoes from Astoria and Chi
cago represent a wholesale leather
store more than they do a pair of
shoes.

THE COUNCIL Is BLUFFING.

The special committee appointed
Der of macadamizing the streets, did
Ghe city and the city council a rank
injustice in recommending that the
matter of street improvement be
postponed at this time on account of
the financial condition of the city.
The financial condition of the city
proves that this committee was preju-
diced in its report. Recorder Fitz
Gerald's report for the year 1904,
proves that this committee is making
a grand stand play against the clos
ing of gambling in this city and that
MS action was not warranted by con-
1itions in any particular.
For the year 1904, the total reve-
Hues of the city were s9s,791.66, and
&he total expenses, including better
ments, $SO.6S4.53, leaving an excess
n revenue over total expenditures,
pf sS1O71S.
The sum of $5692.5O was derived
from gambling fines, leaving an ex-
cess of revenue, without gambling
fines. of s2S146S. The sum of
sS7S2.45 was paid out for better
znents, making a total excess of reve-
aues over running expenses, of
ss069 907, for the year, not counting
cent from the gamblers.
In short, the city could have had

II is for the purpose of discourag-

a reflection on the business ability Of
zhe council.

ADDING WEALTH TO THE CITY.

Here is another instance in which
the gamblers and blacklegs have
added wealth to the CITY," as claim
ed by some of the advocates of an
open town:
A carpenter lived in little home
on Webb street in this city, that he
had paid for with his own earnings
when he was following the carpen-
ter's trade. He had a wife and four
children. He was practically out of
debt and doing well.
Finally he was convinced that
gambling was an easier life to fol-
low than that of carpentering and
so tried it for a time.
The first month he left his grocery
bill unpaid. The second month he
left the grocery bill unpaid and bor-
rowed SS5 from a friend. At the end
of six months he had sold his home
for $500. nearly all of which was ap-
piled to paying debts among the gam
blers. he was in debt $3.50 for gro
ceries and $50 for meat, had lost his
credit, moved into a suite of light
housekeeping rooms, his wife hall
broken hearted to leave the home and
the once decent carpenter a seedy
threadbare saloon bum, classed
among the blacklegs, though enjoy.

Her hair is like the raven,

Her heart is true and gentle
And her name is Ida Ho.
For her I'd leave Virginia.

I'd part with Minnie Sofa,
I'd part from Della Ware.
I'd leave brunette Miss Souri,,
The Carolina pair.
These women all are lovely,
True-hearted girls. l know;
But I'd give them all the go-by
And cleave to Ida Ho.

SHUN THE FAKERS.

The. Lewis and Clark fair at Port
land causes oregon to swarm with
fake advertising schemes, and they
come to Salem as the readiest field
for their harvest. The business men
generally give them the go-by, as they
are well satisfied to use the daily
newspapers that employ is to 20 peo-
pie and pay them good wages, that,
in turn, are spent at home.
OF course, there are some who pre-
fer to patronize fake propositions, as
they are a little on the fake order
themselves, and have no use for the
newspaper unless they have collar
on it for their particular game. AS a
rule, the faker works the faker, and

EVOLUTION OF HEARST.

With the purchase of the Cosmo-

Hearst makes a decisive advance in
his logical evolution.

of the most aggressive and systematic
reformers in the United States. He
has not swerved from his advance
on the trusts. He is now making the
fight for municipal and government
ownership of public utilities, and
sooner or later the American people
will forget what Hearst's politics
were in the past and will only re-
member him for the service he will
have rendered mankind.
Through the Cosmopolitan, the
leading magazine of the 10-cent class
he will reach millions of thinking
people, to whom his advanced prin-
ciples will appeal. and not in vain.

In July, 1855, began to break out with
Eczema on my head, legs and arms, and
began treatment with local doctors, but
did not get much relief. They said the dis
ease had become chronic. then quit them
and tried various ointments and soaps for
another two years, but as soon as cold
weather came was as bad off as ever, so
finally decided tolet medicine alone, and
for twelve or thirteen years did nothing
towards curing the Eczema, except bath,
ing. This seemed to do about as much
good as anything had tried.
During the time 1 lost about one-half of
my hair. Ibegan S. S. S. doubtful of a
cure, because the disease had run so long,

NEW ROAD PLANNED FROM MAY
 ER TO AGUA fRIA.
CFrom Thursday's Daily.l

rum AhAAohstg
 Supervisor Barney Smith returned from an official visit to the Mayer section yesterday. He went out t5 inspect the road from Mayer to the Agua Fria, and to consult with the citizens in regard to some proposed changes in the route which are under consideration.
 The people of the Agua Fria valley and the neighborhoods through which the road passes made the proposition to the board of supervisors that they would make all the changes and i'm provements necessary in the road lead ing from Mayer to the Wells ranch on the Agua Fria at hardly any expense to the county if the board would accept the new route, and estab- fish it as one of the county roads of the county.
 The matter will come up for consid- eration at the next meeting of the board, when some action, in all prob ability, will be taken. This road will pass the Easy Boss mine besides touch ing the locality of the Cashier, the Alto and Binghampton groups. Smith was accompanied by J. S. Johnson and Ed. Whitney of Mayer. He re- ports that two carloads of machinery arrived at Mayer for installation in the plant of the T. Johns Rigby Re duction Co.,, that three very large boil CTS have been set up already, and that two more will be placed as soon as unloaded from the cars.

just what damage the pitching of these tents on the reserve does, but when the department cracks its whip, there is usually something doing, whether it is just and right or not. There is very likely to be more trouble at the Can yon. It has come to us that Conduct or James Hogue, seeing the success with which Cameron is meeting be- fore the land office, has decided to get in on the ground floor, and this week placed on record notices that he has filed on land near the Fl Tovar which is said to be mineral bearing. Forest reserve regulations do not exclude the location of mining claims on the reserves, hence the action of Mir. Hogue. Just what will be the out come we are not prepared to state, but Jim is going ahead confidently, with his work of development on two claims that are said to be mineral bear ing. Later we learned that the com pany has dispensed with MT. Hogue's s services.

and considerable acrimony was develop in the testimony between the late part ners. Dunning contended most em- phatically that there was no installment plan connected with the transaction, and the lady through her attorney, Reese Ling, was just as positive that was to be the method of payment. At any rate, the jury did not take long to come to a conclusion, for in ten min- utes they returned with a verdict giv- ing judgment to plaintiff in the sum of $40.
 Attorney Ling announced after the trial that he would appeal the case, and so Dunning will have to be consoled only with the thought of his victory in the first round of the legal struggle until the fight is renewed in the upper court.

STIRRING UP THE OFFICIALS AT
 GLOBE.

Gila county officials are now feeling the effects of a recent visit to Globe of Public Examiner w. c. Foster, the result being that a number of them have been notified to either give a new bond or increase the number of their sureties.
 As a result of Fosters visit County Treasurer Brookner has been instruct ed to increase his bond by $25,0O0. Other officials have received orders that their bonds are not satisfactory, and must he made out anew or in creased.
 Fosters visit to Globe appears to have had about the same effect as it did when he visited Prescott several months ago, the officials of Yavapai county being obliged almost without exception to give new bonds.
 While in Globe, Examiner Foster appeared before the board of super visors, and found it necessary to point out to them a number of instances in which they were not comply ing with the territorial laws. Many irregulari- ties were found.
 Foster imparted instructions re- garding the manner in which fees in some of the Gila county offices are handled, recorded and accounting made. It appears that the Gila officials have been following customs that are some what behind the times.
 Perhaps the most important thing done by Examiner Foster was to in- struct the Gila county county board of supervisors that the clerk of the dis trict court must refund a large sum of money because "eharges made for en- tering orders of the court should not be allowed" according to law, by the supervisors.
 Fosters investigation has caused cOnsternatlOn among the officials of 'Gila county, few of whom have es- capped his investigation, something be- ing found in almost every instance that was not done according to law.
 One of the Globe papers charges that while Foster was in that city he stated that the average county official was such in Arizona that in a way it barred Arizona from single state hood on the ground of incompeteney.

FORTY-DOLLAR ORE IN THE
 FOLD KENTUCK.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

(From Wednesdays Daily.)
 Forty dollar ore was struck the oth- CT day in an S0-foot tunnel in the Old Kentuck mine, one of a group of eleven claims owned by the Juanita Mining Co.,, situated about twenty miles south of Prescott and four miles from Pa lace station.
 The new strike shows a width of three feet in the face of the tunnel and carries beside gold values, 3 1-2 ozs. silver and 15 per cent copper. The vein runs in a northerly and southerly direction in a porphyry and granite formation, and is easily mined.
 There is about 400 feet of tunnel work done on the group, and more than 200 tons of ore on the dump, which will sample $2O per ton.
 The new boarding house and out houses are finished, and a residence for the president of the company is under construction. B. F. Peters, who is president and large stockholder in the concern, who brought the news of the strike to town yesterday, states that work will be continued and regular shipments of ore made in the near fu- ture.

BRUTAL CRIME END OF A DRUNK
 FEN QUARREL.
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

As result of a drunken quarrel yes terday between two Mexicans in Buckeye, a man named Medina is dead and Pete Suieta is in jail, awaiting the action of the grand jury.
 According to report, the two men were seen drinking together in the early part of the day, and it is said that some very harsh names were pass ed between them. It seemed at that time that the men would surely come to blows, but they were persuaded to depart by friends.
 Later in the day Suieta and three companions started out of Buckeye in a wagon, and had gone some distance when they were overtaken by Medina. Suieta drew a revolver as soon as he saw Medina coming, and when he was in shooting distance of the wagon, fired once, the bullet killing Medina instantly.
 The killing was one of the most brutal and uniustifable that ever took place in Buckeye, and the feel ing ran high in that place for some time.
 The murderer was arrested by John Norton and Nick Sanders. A coroner's jury was summoned by Justice of the Peace Barkley, and viewed the re- mains. The verdict of the jury was that "deeeased came to his death by a gunshot wound, inflicted by P. Suieta, with intent to kill.
 Suieta acknowledged his guilt, but claimed that Medina upon catching mp with the wagon in which he was, had threatened to kill him. This is de- nied by the three witnesses, all saying that Medina had not uttered a word
