FRANCHISE GRANTED
TO REACH new DEPOT

Meeting as committee of the
whole, the city council last night
recommended the passage of the or
dinances granting terminal rights to
the Spokane Terminal company. The
franchises provide for a line running
west on Main avenue from Mill street
to the proposed terminal building at
Lincoln street; and for that part Of
this franchise running east on Main
avenue from Washington street to
Market street, to Ferry avenue, and
east across the river, across Dennis
& Bradley's addition, and across the
East Olive avenue bridge. The sec
ond franchise reported favorably was

resulted in warning the gang, which
has scattered and gone into hiding.
Bradley declares that he met "Pos-
ton Slim" in Pendleton and that the
yeggman told him of the shooting of
Stotko. Slim is believe to have
buried himself in some Of the yegg
hangouts on the coast.
Boston Slim is known to the po-
lice across the continent. He has
done time" in various prisons and
served 10 years in Deer Lodge, Mont,
being released from there few
weeks before Stotko was murdered.
The fact that the police have been
unable to keep the information secret
illustrates the lamentable state of af-
fairs existing at the station.
Of late private detectives have
swarmed about the headquarters,

CARELESSPOL|CE METHODS
PREVAIL AT THE CITY HALL

Through wooden-headed police
methods and the careless exposure
of developments to irresponsible pri-
vate detectives, the police have lost
the one opportunity to capture the
suspected murderer of policeman
Stotko.
Through a statement made by
George Bradley, the safe blower and
holdup man, now in custody, the po-
lice learned that Boston SLIM" a
notorious yeggman, was one of the
gang of burglars who murdered
Stotko.
This information was secured by
the head of one of the divorce de-
tective shops of the city and traded
to one of the city newspapers, which
spread the news broadcast that the
police were looking for Boston Slim

ADMIRAL R0JESTVENSKY TAKE
Patriotism

Patriotism!
1t is exempied in our public schools
Are Superntedent Tonney and his teachers teaching
patriotism?
Do the school children appreciate the day of sacred
memories when they compelled to attend school in
order that their teachers may not lose days wages?
This is what it amounts to.
Superintedent Tormey orders the schools kept open
on Memorial Day.
Because if holiday is declared the teachers lose a
days pay.
MERCENARY TEACHERS!
The ALMIGHTY DOLLAR is placed ahead of PA
TRIOTISM in the eyes of growing Young America.
Pause and consider, you few veterans who make this
the hottest oyour days. Comprehend that the lessons in
patriotism you giving your children at home, when
you show the honorable and tell of the awful pers
and suffering you passed through for the sake of the Flag
Then consider that your paid servants counter
acting those lessons with the TALE OF THE DOLLAR
teaching your children that money greed must be
placed ahead of patriotism.
What if YOU had been taught such lessons as child
Would you be wearing that glorious badge of patriotism
today?
At the Field school INSTRUMENTATION to the school dis
cipne was cultivated, perforce when those school chill
dren marched away.
But those children are PATRIOTS and the children of
patriots.
They worthy descendants of the martyrs of Bunker
Hill and Gettysburg They would FIGHT for the Flag
All honor AMI glory to that jantor
Greater is he than Superintendent Tormey and his
cenary school teachers.

councils and have been allowed to do
the work which properly belongs to
the regular detective department.
With the information thus secured
the cheap sleuths have been able to
trade for advertising at the expense
Of the department.
One sleuth was heard yesterday de-
nouncing Captain Coverly because the
acting chief secured confession
from Anterior and Bradley without
consulting the self-constituted die
tator of the department.
Under such methods the regular de-
tective force Is showed In the back
ground and snubbed-prevented from
doing their share Of the work or
their moves exposed in the news
papers in case they attempt to carry
out their duties.
Complete Generalization Is bound
to be the result.

bic was over the grade up Altamont

the passage of the ordinance provided
the grade be not more than 16 per

1t was also recommended that the
ordinance granting a franchise to the

BERLIN, May 30-According to
reports received from st. Petersburg,
Russia may withdraw Linevitch's
army from Manchuria temporarily
and perhaps abandon Nladivostok. 1t
Is said the czar is determined to con-
tinue the struggle in the hope that
the army will eventually win a vic
tory and retrieve its previous losses.
The grand dukes are said to be back
ing this plan and urging the czar to
continue the war. 1t Is believed in
official circles here that Russia is
only blindly "bluffing" and that the
talk of war is merely for the purpose
of securing better peace terms.

their country, and rendered the in
stitution from which Superintendent
Tormey draws his salary possible.
At Field school there was a strike,
about SO of the pupils walking out
and taking a holiday in spite of
teachers and superintendent.
The janitor at Field school, James
B. Ross, is an old c. A. r. man and
he was greatly incensed at Superin-
tendent Tormey's action. He express
ed his disapproval to the pupils. They

agreed with the janitor and, despite
the protests Of Principal Sarah
Wefsman, walked out for a self
chosen holiday.
What will be the fate Of the jani-
tor? People will await with interest
the decision of Tormey and the
school board. Will patriotic senti-
ments in the Spokane schools be ta-
booed and Janitor Ross fired for ex-
pressing them? Undoubtedly, patri-
otto bodies will hove something to
say anent this holiday affair.

A "Tanka" by the Emperor runs:
"The foe that strikes thee,
For thy country's sake
Strike him with all thy might;
But while thou strikest,
Forget not still to love him."

with the hearty laughter of the king
heard beneath them.
