AUTO MANIAC.
Fine for Reckless Driver Should Not Be
Permitted, Says Rev. Edwards.

With solemn earnesIness that car
| ried his words beyond the pale of bit
| terness, the Rev. Frederick Edwards
pittilessly : assailed the automobile
speed maniac at st. James church in
Milwaukee on Sunday, taking as his
text the death of Miss Florence White
member of his church who was run
down and killed by the auto of Benia-
min F. Steinel. Mr.. Edwards said that
fine is not sufficient to deter the
wealthy owner of a powerful automo-
bile from dashing along the streets to
the peril of life and limb of people
allghting from street cars and cross
ing the streets, and said that the leg
islature should punish such speed vio-
lation within the city limits by a jail
sentence only, and not give the Judge
even the alternative of imposing a fine.
A fine, he said, is only a feather in
the cap of the daring automobilist,
and adds a piquant dash to his story
of defiance of the law, while a Jail
sentence leaves a stigma that would
soon give speed violators an unenvia-
BILE notoriety.
MANY men are as careful as they
can be, but there is another class that
is not so careful. They become ex-
cited over the high speed and with
this excitement comes a recklessness
that seems to defy human beings law
or order. Horses may rear, women
and children may scream and run and
this answers for fun.
THE chief offenders are in the ma
chimes filled with men and boys.
Many machines are trusted to mere
boys and are driven with school boy
recklessness. Fast driving in cities is
seems to make the drivers Of the ma
chimes more reckless. 1t is a menace
to the lives of pedestrians in a street
after dark The streets are for the
use of all and not for the small num-
Der owning automobiles Drivers of
the machines have as much right as
you or I, but they have no right to
imperi1 human life We have submit
ted to a most unrighteous imposition
and have invited this disaster"

COST OF LIGHT TO Be STUDIED
Government Experts to Consider Sub
ject of Interest to Municipal
Ownership Students.

| WASHINGTON, D. c., June 10
Advocates of municipal ownership of
some of the public utilities in Mime
apolis are likely to get some workable
information on electric lighting from
/ the report of the commission provid-
ed for in Representative Stevens bill
for the investigation of the water pow
er possibilities at the locks and dams
| between the Twin Cities
There is every prospect that this bill
will be favorably reported and that it
will get through both houses before
adjournment. Mr.. Stevens believes it
will be amended to meet the views
expressed at yesterdays hearing be-
fore coming before the rivers and har-
bors committee.
AS presented to the committee, the
commission was authorized to investi-
gate and report on the development of
power with reference to it's use by the
federal government in the development
of electricity for light and power for
the government buildings in the Twin
Cities and at Fort Smelling, the sur
plus to be sold for lighting the city
buildings. The army engineers rec
commended that the investigation be
extended to cover the sale of electric
power to private parties, and Chair
man Burton thought the investigation
ought to go as far as to authorize
private parties to construct the plant,
with the privilege Of selling the sur
rent to the federal government pri-
marily and that surplus to other par
ties.
Under the authority given the COM
mission in the bill amended as above
outlined, much interesting information
will be developed bearing on the
amount of power which can be secured
amount of power which can be Sc
cured, the cost of a plant and also
the cost of running, also the saving
that will come to each city through
using the government power.
With the report of the board of en-
gineers and government experts on
electric lighting before them, the adj
vocates of municipal ownership will
have some authoritative information
on which to base a comparison of the
actual cost of running an electric gen.
Grating plant, and the cost of that
medium of light and power from the
Cities.

Kenneth, according to Mrs. Perry
and her husband who accompanied her

the Whitney place where they stay

CLEMENCY TO THE AGED
WOMAN.

The friends of DR.. Mary A. Latham,
serving a four year sentence in the
penitentiary for arson committed near
Spokane, are going to make an effort
to secure a pardon for the aged wom-
an. An application will be made to
Governor Mead next month by attor-
neys employed by Spokane people. A
petition is now being prepared by the
attorneys which will be circulated in
Spokane county asking that the gov
ernor extend his clemency to Mrs.
Latham. 1t will set forth that the
mind of the woman was deranged on
account of the death of her son; that
at the time of the argument of the
case her counsel was limited by the
Judge; that the property burned was
her own and that testimony was ad-
mitted at the trial which was not COM

DR.. Mary A. Latham was convicted
OF arson Tor the burning or drug

Southwestern Roads Need Cars.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 15.-Probably
the best evidence that general pros
perity will prevail to surprising de-
gree during the autumn and winter
are the arrangements which the south
western railroads are making, to take
care Of their immense tra2c The in
dications now are that the regular
equipment of these roads will be insult
ficient to handle the business and, as
result, many of the Southwestern
railroads have placed large orders for
freight cars of every description, to
be delivered during the summer and
early part of the fall.

Normal Crop Predicted.

With an area of wheat under Gull
tivation probably five per cent greater
than that of last year, the conditions
are excellent for a full normal yield

unfavorable developments within the
next few weeks it is not at all i'm

EXPORT SEASON IS NEARLY OVER

There is nothing new transpiring in
the wheat market. AS for some weeks
past a little business is doing all the

purchasers. Little interest is taken in
the export situation, and the season is
practically closed on that account,
wheat is still to arrive for the United
Kingdom, and this is causing some
concern on the other side, where any
large offerings coming to hand would
serve to demoralze the situation to a
considerable extent.

Weather Is Factor.
The general market is still influence
ed almost entirely by the weather
developments. There were one or two
sharp advances toward the close of

the undertone is one of strength,
based upon conditions of actual supply
and demand and the crop outlook on
the whole, does not lend encour-
