Jacobs, for fear Of being detected, trim
med the margin, and then eat the pages
into small sections. Numbering each,
so that he could subsequently paste
them on tissue paper and have them
bound together, he pasted these little
sections through the large number of
books he had in his cell

When I brought the remains of my
son home, / found in his clothing a let
ter which he had written to Warden
Meyer on February S. 1906 about the
treatment he was receiving from the
physician and begging the warden to
have something done for him. But
from some cause. I am unable TO say,
the letter was never delivered. and [
have thought he held it back on ac-
count of fear. If I live I will, have Con-

The Review is delivered by carriers in the following towns:
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP

Chicago furnishes another illust1a- ton of the growth of municipal own ership in the city election on Tuesday when politics were thrown to the winds and Judge Edward F. Dunne was elected mayor on the one issue municipal ownership of all public utilities. Judge Dunne is democrat and defeated John Maynard Harlan, son of Associate Justice Harlan. of the United States supreme court, by more than 20. GOO votes. a remarkable vic tory when it is remembered that in the presidential election last fall President Roosevelt carried the city by more than 1000 majority. The cam paien was one of the most bitterly con- sestod in the history of the city and she result is most striking victory for those who are in favor of Chicago owning it's own water works, electric lines and street railways.
 The result will strengthen the munic ipsl ownership policy throughout the country. The Chicago American led the fight for Judge Dunne and this paper will be entitled to much of the credit due for the result. Party lines were not allowed to deter the people from stampeding to principle which they believe will put stop to noto- ~rious abuses of privileges practiced in lie utilities.

General Porfirio Diaz, president of the republic of Msxico. writes for Golfers of April l, on Mexico and the Monroe Doctrne," and in part says:
 Tt is not our opinion that to the United States alone in spite of the declaration of Monroe doctrine belongs obligation of assisting other repub- lies of this hemisphere against the attacks of Europe or Asia. if such at tacks are still to be considered possi- ble. but for the attainment of the end to which we all aspire, each one of the republics ought by means of dec- laration like that of President Monroe proclaim that every attack on sthe part of foreign power, with view of curtailing the territory or the inde- pendence.o or of altering the institutions of any one of the republics of Amer ica, would be considered by the nation making such a declaration as an at- tack upon itself. provided that the nation directly attacked or threatened in such manner bespoke the aid of the other nations opportunely. In this man. ner the doctrine now called by the name of Monroe would become the doctrine of America in the fullest sense of the word. and although originating in the United States, would belong to the international law of the American continents. As to the means to reduce this ides to practice, this is notIthe place or oocssiOn.to discuss them.''

The city council in Tucson is pre-
 pairing tc take another fall out of the
 gambler. It will be Iemem bered that
 the present city council in Tucson was
 elected on the distinct issue that pub
 lie gambling would no longer be per
 mitted in that city. At the first meet ing of the new council an ordinance WAS passed which silenced the call at the crap table, ths srhirr of the marble on the roulette wheel and the familiar announcement of copper, bet ard call." fof the last tuIn at the faro table. But the Tucson gambler had so long ralied on the earnings of the people that he has proved to be hard to choke of, so a few days ago gam bling joint was opened just outside of the city limits. with all the aIluIing embellishments thereto appeItaining. There is statute giving city councils Jurisdiction one mile beyond city limits for the purpose of regulating or sbolishing just such institutions as 6 gambling house ana the oity council of Tucson will proceed to enforce this statute against the new gambling house on the outskirts of that city.

DEMOCRATS GAINING

The municipal elections held this week show remarkable gains for the democrats in almost every city where they occurred. The votes polled in these city elections are sufficient to encourage the hope that the political pendulum has reached it's limit in the direction of the republican party and IS now swinging towards the demo- crats- It is time.
 -I- Chicago .se r;c.cxy gen hy the democrats was an abnormally large one; it showed a gain over the demo- cratic vote by which Mayer Harrison was elected two years ago of over 15.- 900. To say nothing of the fact that the republicans carried the city by more than 100000.
 h Chicago the democrats stood  square for municipal ownership of public utilities and this result should cause the democrats to go into every future campaign. whether national. state, county or city, with a distinct policy and unequivocsl promise of what may be expected of it's candi- dates if they are victorious.
 In the municipal campaign at Kan sss City, Kans.. republican majority was displaced by democratic major ity of l5,000. Results in many other cities. voting this week. were equally encouraging for the democrats.
