new ordinance to deprive the coun-
cilmen of the embarrassing authori-
ty to revoke licenses in the future.
The councils action last night Is
compIete victory for the saloon men.
Also il is in complete accord Win
previous municipal gymnastics by
body which has done nothing from the
beginning but defy the public, evade
responsibility, secrete payrolls and
promote general cussedness and 1nef-
ficiency.
Mayor Kellough came out of the
woods long enough last night to ad-
nit that it was he who ordered the
chief of police to present the cases OF
saloon violations to the city council.
But it was not the mayor who voted
to refund the license money, restore
the licenses and. with cowardlce most
shameful. evade the responsibility OF
passing on the fifteen new cases of
Sunday closing violations.
The spectacle of an ancient church
member like Councilman Durham
playing into the hands of the saloon
element is one of those examples
of what happens to man af-
ter he has become eligible to
the class of petty politicians.
The slick work of "Bilr' Kirkman,
Mexican and Bachtold was to be ex-
pected. They have long stood together
in matters which have to do with de-
fiance of public sentiment. The sturdy
fight put up by Councilmen Bridges
and Glasford for the only honorable
course the council could consistently
take, emphatically exposed the cabal
of the other members who fled to the
timber the instant their picayunish
politics in saloon matters brought
them to the firing line.
There can be no doubt now of the
turning of the city over to the saloon
element. Mayor Kellough has stood
for an open town all along. His cum
ming in bringing the matter to an
early issue, with victory assured, is
greater than he had been credited
with. The repeal of the saloon or
dinance will firmly establish that
victory.

cause he refused to deed his property
into his wife's name, John Bolan Of
this city, who has enjoyed married
life only one short week, was so Sc
verely mauled by his wife that he is
in a serious condition.
Rev. F. Gallahue was brought into
police court to answer to the charge
of assault and battery and pleaded not
guilty Bolan swore that both the
clergyman and his wife tried to get
him to deed his property to her, and
upon his refusal they set upon him
and pounded him until he was I'M
conscious. The wife, for the apparent
reason of shielding Gallahue, testified
that she only pounded Bolan. Not
withstanding the court saw fit to i'm
pose a fine upon the parson.

REPORT CONSUMPTION CASES
New Ruling, EffeeHns Portland
Physicians.

Hereafter physicians in Portland will
have to report cases of tuberculosis
which are attended by them, or be
subject to arrest and fine on complaint
of the city health officer, says the
Telegram.
At the meeting of the city board
of health this morning a resolution
was adopted to compel all physicians
to make prompt reports of patients
affected with tuberculosis, according
to the requirements of the city or
dinances,. Heretofore this ordinance
has not been observed by physicians.
and the result has been that no steps
were taken by the health department
to prevent the spread of the white
plague.
ceived from the city librarian to the
effect that people affected with tu-
berculosis came to the library after
books. The librarians had no knowl-
edge of the affliction of the individual
and books would be let out and re-
turned These same books were in
turn taken out by others, thus assist
ing in the spread Of tubercular germs.
The librarian requested the health de-
partment to furnish the library with
list of persons so affected as far as
possible.
Hereafter when the physicians re-
port such cases a list will be SUBJ
mitted to the city librarian, so that
no more books will be issued to in
dividuals affected with the disease.

terday afternoon at o'clock and was
found guilty. He was turned over to
the superior court where he will be
required to show cause why he
should noe be remanded to the reform
school.
The testimony against young Niles
was strong. George and Johnny Grod-
mier, the two boys who were with him
at the time Of the shooting, said they
told him not to shoot at the train.
The defendant claimed he aimed to
shoot over the car and did not know
his gun would carry so far.
The bullet went through the cupalo
of the caboose only missing the con-
ductor of the train by narrow
margin.

NO RAILROAD CONSCIENCE FUND

The Santa Fe railroad people at To-
peka have been greatly amused by
recent contribution to the conscience
fund. A man who bought a ticket Of
a scalper some years ago has suffered
an awakening of conscience as to the
honesty of the transaction and has re-
turned to the company $27. He says
that he has made the matter the sub
ject Of prayer and has been advised to
remit $27. The rate clerks are I'M
able to imagine how he came to get
an answer to his prayer which de-
cided upon that figure. The amount
would be somewhat larger if he were
to remit the actual difference between
the regular fare and the scalper's tick
ct.
This incident suggests, however, that
while railroads have a conscience fund
into which they put money contribute
ed by the awakened consciences of
travellers and shippers, there does not
appear to be any conscience fund from
which to take money to square up dis
ordinations, rebates and overcharges
in favor of those Disseminated against
We have yet to learn of shipper be-
ing surprised on opening his morning
mail to find a letter from a railroad
president Or traffic manager advising
him that on his last shipment he was
charged more than his larger COMPETE
tor and that he in all honesty and
fairness is entitled to the same rate.
and enclosing a check for the amount
of the discrimination. But, of course,
railroads are not supposed to have any
souls and naturally they cannot have
consciences, so that so long as rebates
and discrimination exist we cannot
expect to witness any such instances
of repentance and contrition as is fur
nished by this contributor to the con-
science fund of the Santa Fee road.
The thing to do, therefore, is to make
| the rebate and the discrimination a
crime in law, as it is in fact, and i'm
pose an adequate penalty.

Hetty Green's Home Dearer to Her.
Phi1a 6o1nhia Record

Mrs. Hetty Green is sentimental
and her feelings have been hurt. Two
thousand dollars have been added to
the taxes of the richest woman at her
family home in Bellows Falls. She
doesn't mind the money; she says so.
But she sees in this an effort on the
part of the community to get rid of
her. and of course that hurts her feel
ings. Everything I think the most
of is here" she says, ut is my home
and its associations are very dear to
me-" Well, if her money is there why
should she complain if the place is
made $4,000 dearer to her than it was
before?

hearing of the saloon cases to the po-
lice court, Kirkman was feminist
rebating any considerable amount of
the license money to the saloonmen
and finally got through a motion re-
batting the unearned portion of the Ii
censes in the cases of s. Lynch,
Thomas & Wendt and A. Schwarz
from November Is, to the date of ex-
piration of the licenses. This was fig
ured out that the three saloonmen
would each forfeit approximately
$175.S0. Peter Welt played lucky in
that his license would have expired
October 6, so he is out but $32.

ing against Kirkman's motion.

ses TO the four saloonmen whose Ii

otherwise and licenses were granted
