BRECKONS' AUTHORITIES
FOR CITIZEN LABOR OPINION

unnecessary to refer at length, courts
have held that laws permitting union
labor only to be employed on public
works are unconstitutional and void.
In the Parrott case above referred
to, the provision of the Chinese treaty
considered, was as follows:
Chinese subjects visiting or resid-
ing in the United States, shall enjoy
the same privileges, immunities and
exemptions in respect to travel or resi-
dence, as may there be enjoyed by
the citizens or subjects of the most
favored nations
Referring to this particular provi-
sion, Mr.. Justice Sawyer used this
language:
ANY legislation or constitutional
provision of the State of California,
which limits or restricts that right to
labor to any extent or in any manner
not applicable to citizens of other
foreign nations visiting or residing in
California, is in conflict with the pro-
visions of this treaty.
Practically the same ruling was made
by Mr.. Justice Field in the Quong
Woo case.

OBJECT TO /
PAYING TAX

The question as to whether the doc
| tors in the Territory should pay an
annual tax of $40 has been brought to
a head, and friendly suit will be
carried before the Supreme Court for
a decision that will settle the matter.
At a meeting of the Territorial
Medical Association last Saturday
evening the matter was discussed at
some length and a committee on legis-
lation was appointed, DR. Cooper be-
ing the chairman.
1t seems that the last legislature
opathic Bill, taxing all osteopaths in
the Territory $40 per year, for the
reason that they were not considered
doctors. A rider was attached to this
bill, however, which added a tax of
SO a year for all doctors. Heretofore
physicians when they have taken out
their license have paid $40 as a perpetu-
al tax, and accordingly they resent the
new law which they think is class leg
islation.
Chairman Cooper had an interview
with the Territorial Treasurer and as
a result the latter will present a de-
mand to DR.. Mcdonald, who will repre-
sent the doctors in the case, to pay his
SO. This Dr. Mcdonald will refuse to
do, whereupon both sides will submit
briefs to the Supreme Court for judg-
ment.
The suit will be a friendly one, but
the doctors feel that the law is an un-
just one and is class legislation. They
feel that they should not be obliged
to stand this extra tax when other
professional men are exempted, and
they do not think that the law was
made with the idea of having them
do so
A large number of physicians have
received letters from the Territorial
Treasurer asking that they pay up this
tax. but they will defer doing SO until
the case IS settled in the courts.

Chief Clerk c. M. White,
who is in temporary charge OF
the Garbage Department, stat
ed this morning in discussing
the charges made against Sam
Johnson, that it was quite pos
sible that a piece of paper had
been laid over the money col
umn in the payroll when the
men were paid off. Although
White had never seen it done,
he said that if it had been
done the reason for doing so
was easy to see. The payroll
money column contains the
figure which the employe has
earned, but from this had to
be deducted the two per cent.
discount, which made the sum
which the men were actually
paid a somewhat smaller one.
These reduced figures were
placed on the payroll right
next to the names of the en-
ployes. In Whites opinion it
would be quite natural for the
person who paid off the men to
place piece OF paper over the
payroll so that he could see
only the figures representing
the money actually to be paid,
in order to avoid confusing
these amounts with the figures
from which the discount had
not been deducted.
With regard to the money
which was left on the table
after all the men had been
paid, it was quite probable,
said White, that this had been
collected by Johnson from
loans he had made the men.
johnson was very good to the
employees under him, lending
them money without charging
them interest on it. Prior to
his being appointed at the
head of the Garbage Depart
ment some of the clerks had
been lending money to the
men. charging interest there
on. but Johnson had immedl-

An investigation of payrolls
In the Garbage Department was
made this morning to find the
alleged case of a man who was
credited with seven SUNDAYS III
a month, but those in the de-
partment declare that there is
no such case to be found in
any of the records, and they
deny that there ever was such
a case. The payrolls, in fact,
never credit anyone with any
Sundays at all, as has been
explained a number of times.
Sunday credits are not given
at all nor are Saturday credits
or Monday credits, or any
other specified days. The pay
is by the month and the work
man gets his fraction of a
month.
I'm the school department, -
said Chief Clerk White of the
Public Works Department,
'tne wages are annual sala-
rles. The teachers are paid for
the entire month of August,
in which they do no work AT
all. 1t is the same proposition
here. We might just as well
talk of a stuffed payroll be-
cause the annual salaries run
in August as because the gar
bage monthly salaries continue
to run on Sundays.
1.-THE timekeepers have been
trying to find out who is meant
by the man who got credit for
seven Sundays, as someone,
who is not nameu, says hap
pened, in the Advertiser. We
don't know who it is the Ad-
vertiser is quoting, nor who
he refers to, but there is no
such case to be found. -

KELLY HAS MONEY.

According to Treasurer Kelly and AS
sistant Auditor James Nation the re-
port sent out from the state house last
week that the stamp Not Paid For
Want OF Funds will have to be used
within a few days, was an erroneous
one.
II am not using it now and 1 do not
see any early chance of using it, said
Kelly. There is money on hand to pay
the bills. That story went out of here
like a whole lot of others. 1t was SIM

II haven't any to give OUT was his
response. Il don't need to give them

printed in the first place. There was
nothing authentic about it. That is all

Assistant Auditor Nation stated that
at the first of July there was over

more has been coming in ever since.

WHY PENNY LEFT.
Washburn Did Not Carry Out Agree
ment as He Understood 1t.


L. H. Greenwood. one of the trus-
tees of Washburn college, said in his
interview yesterday: sFhe resignation
of Prof. Penny depended primarily
upon a question of salary. There is
the kindliest feeling towards him on
the part of the board of trustees and
the college authorities and we have
nothing to criticize him for in the
manner of his conduction of the de-
partment which he had in charge. I
don't know what his plans are y
The loss of Prof. Penny to Wash
burn college is a serious one. The loss
to Topeka and Kansas would be a
greater one unless he decides to re-
main in Topeka in connection with the
Kansas School of Music and Fine Arts.
The facts of the matter are that
Prof. Penny has made a wonderful
success of the department of music in
Washburn since he took charge. He
the Washburn people expected.
Pennys unusual success was the cause
of the differences. The department
under him was so prosperous that it
encouraged jealousies. His agreement
with the institution was for salary of
$500 and a certain percentage of the
receipts of the department. The at
tendance was so greatly increased and
the receipts from the students in nlu-
sic so large that Penny, while bringing
funds to the college, was making q
little more money than the president
of the institution. which, of course.
was a lamentable affair.
About a year ago the college scaled

MOB ATTACKS CHAUFFEUR.
He Had Run His Machine Over a Six
Year-Old Child.

New York. Aug. "A 6-year-old
girl was run down and probably
fatally hurt last night in Brooklyn
by a large automobile. A mob at
tackled the chauffeur. Nils BroIin, who
was saved from serious injury by
policeman.
The child was at play in the street
with her mother and did not see the
automobile approaching. Brolin tried
to stop the machine when he saw the
child was bewildered and hesitated in
which direction to fly. He threw on
all of his brakes and the motor
stopped after one wheel had passed
over the body of the child. Brolin
jumped from the machine and hast
ened to a telephone where he called
for an ambulance. Upon his return
to the automobile he found a threat
ening crowd surrounding two friends
whom he had in the machine. Wo-
men with clubs struck at him and
men threw stones until the police
man arrived.
The mother took the insensible
body in her arms and, refusing to let
the ambulance doctor touch her, car
ried the child half a mile to the hos
pital.

To BE SUED FOR LIBEL.
Editor Mann of .Town Topics Has
Further Troubles.

New York. Aug. Am entirely new
turn has been given the Town Topics
muddle by Moses Elias Woorster, the
originator of "Fads and Fancies'' and
the manager of Americas Smart Set
applying to Assistant District Attorney
Krotel for a warrant for criminal libel
against his former associate, Colonel
William L. Mann, editor of Town Top
les. Woorster, who was highly indig-
nant, announced that in addition to the
criminal charge he would bring civil
action against Colonel Mann for $4,000
for defamation of character.
WooFster bases his complaint upon
the interviews recently given out by Col.
Mann regarding the Town Topics scan
dial. He alleges that Mann referred to
him as a Scoundrel and also intimated
he had dismissed lin from his employ.
In his interview with the assistant
district attorney Woorster told how
armed with letters of Introduction from
Mann he obtained $50 900 from Mrs.
Coils F. Huntington and $500 from
Senator Depew for the insertion OF
sketches of their lives in ''Fads and
Fancies." Woorster declared that when
he outlined his 'Fads and Fancies"
scheme to the editor of Town Topics
Colonel Mann seized upon it eagerly.
Il got $4,000 out OF the thing" said
Woorster, and there was 5000 owing
to me when / parted with Colonel Mann
we agreed Wnen the business started 10
set aside $50, 900 for the publication of
the work and the remainder of the sub
secriptions were to be divided equally be-
tween us. 1 remained in charge of the
publication as editor for two years. At
the end of two years L concluded to quit
and figured that my share of the profits
was about $4,000. 1 got $4,000 and as
signed my claim for TIE balance to w
l. Daniels, who succeeded me in charge
of 'Fads and Fancies.'
"One day in 1902 Colonel Mann said
to me: You had better see Mrs. Hunt
ington. She is very wealthy and [
think she would subscribe to our book
He gave me letter to her and 1 pre-
scented it and found her very agreeable.
When I told her how much Colonel
Mann admired her husband she readily
subscribed, agreeing to pay $4,000.
zone day I needed some money and
Colonel Mann told me 1 might go to
Mrs. Huntington and get the amount of
her subscription. She had not the least
objection to paying in advance and
gave me $40. 600 in cash, which 1 divided
equally with Mann.
Z carried Mann's personal letter to
Senator DepeW just before the senator's
marriage and he readily subscribed ST.,
500. 1 did not have to use any per-
suasion with the senator. About $780,
600 in all was taken in for 'Fads and
Fancies.' The reason Colonel Mann did
not go in on Americas Smart Set was
that we could not agree on the terms
He knew all about the publication from
its inception, however. He has a short
memory"

and called a patrolman. After a long
search in the house, the police found
the erstwhile pugnaciously inclined
youth hiding under a. bed in his faith

break. When taken to the station
