supreme court oraer. oanva...

Conference committees by way of solving
, the problem about the osnvassing of the re-
turns submitted the question to the supreme
court on an application for a mandamus
directing the speaker to comply with the
law. General John c. Gown presented the
argument in favor and H H. Wilson
against II. The court before noon handed
down the writ directing the speaker to do
as requested; to open and canvass the re-
turns and declare the result.
The next step was to serve the writ,
which was issued on an opinion read by
Chief Justice Cobb, Judges Maxwell and
Norvall agreeing. The pops were in no
mood to receive or comply with the supreme
court orders. The task OF serving the man
damus upon the speaker was given to Sher-
III McClay Deputy Sheriff Hoxie and
United States Marshall Hastings. II was
upon McClay that the brunt of the effort
fell. He got in by inducing Janitor MAIDEN
to unlock the door. How he performed II
was so graphically described in The Bee at
the time that the best way to tell 1t is to
quote:
''The assembled legislators knew the writ
was to be served. but when the stentorian
voice of MeikleJohn announced the entrance
of the sheriff for a moment the dignity OF
the law appalled, the lawmakers and there
was a moments death-like stiffness. Sud
denly there came the crash of breaking
glass and every person in the assemblaSe
jumped involuntarily to his feet.

FIGHT IS ON.

The fight against the Agricultural
College is on again. During the past
two or three weeks the DesereJ News
and Tribune have contained articles
showing the trend OF feeling in certain
circles and within the past few days
the Tribune has given not less than
four columns Of space to articles
credited as coming from Logan, said
articles being arguments for CONSOLE
dalton at Salt Lake city. Though the
articles contain a certain amount OF
truth, it is clearly evident that they
are written prejudicially, ana there Is
strong suspicion here that they did
not emanate from Logan city.
If the people of this state will but
remember the Tribune's attitude in
the fight last year, how that paper
published column after column Of
matter detrimental to College in
terests and defamatory Of the presi-
dent, the whole a network of DELHI
crate Justification which that paper
finally retracted in page article
written by a representative who was
sent to Logan to learn the truth
they will not be misled by articles
appearing now.
AS this paper has had occasion tC
state before, the Salt Lake Tribune is
owned, edited and managed by mer
whose past record would indicate they
know not the meaning Of honor, mer
who would sacrifice any interest In the
State Of Utah for private or politica
gain. The Tribune Is not TO be cred
tied on the Mormon question, ant
200, 900 Mormon and Gentle people ir
this state damn it daily, What rea
son have the people Of this state to be
lieve that the Salt Lake Tribune will
put more truth in fight against thu
Agricultural College than it does il
its bitter fight against the Mormon
church? There Is none and the pee
pie should be slow to give credence I,
any art icle in that publication.

Years ago, when the main line was
taken from Cache Valley and we were
left on the spur, President Adams of
the U. ?. railroad gave his word of
honor that Logan should never be dis
eliminated against in any way. For
years, however, the business men Of
this city and valley have been discrim-
mated against in the matter of freight
rates and all effort TO secure change
has failed. Many here remember
the assertions and promises Of Pres,
Adams, and conservative men are now
led to join in drastic measures now to
be used in forcing the point IL possible.
A promise from railroad president
ought to be as binding as from any
other individual.

BICYCLE GIRLS

Theer is no particular reward out

the fact is she's the real rara avis.
She's as scarce in Spokane as
hens teeth in barnyard or any
other place The time was not
very long ago when the lady BIZ
cyclist used to pass up and down
the streets at good pace, but
nowadays one may watch for hours
without seeing a lady awheel, or
even little girl. Where have they
gone is the question? Theer used
to be hundreds of them in this city.
Today it is doubted if there are %.
Evidently the ladies have shook
the bicycle for good. 1t is a re-
markable metamorpEos for Spo-
kane. The men? Oh, sure, they
ride vet, but not nearly so many
of them. Most of them now, how
ever, ride more for business than
pleasure, as of yore. With that
changeableness charming in the
sex. where before every mothers
daughter wanted a wheel now they
have to be begged to ride one, as
any young man so green as to pro-
pose a bike ride will speedily learn.
But if he says anything about an

SAN FRANCISCO'S POLITICAL SCANDAL

San Francisco is now plunged
into one of the most sensational po-
litical scandals of the century.
Every man, woman and child is
agog at the audacity of the most
daring of all political bosses, Abe
Ruef.
Ruef forced the board of super
visors, whom he controls, to throw
out of Office District Attorney
Langdon and appoint himself to
that position. How Ruef was
blocked by an Injunction and
threatened interference of the at
torney general has already been
told in Press dispatches.
Langdon was getting ready to
prosecute Ruef for graft and the
multi-millionaire boss took the step
that made the blood of the whole
city tingle with excitement.
Mayor Schmitz. the tool of Ruef,
is in Europe and local newspapers
are quoting well known citizens.
who express the belief that he will
never return. A humble fiddler
less than six years ago, Schmitz is
now travelling in regal style, dining
with princes and entertained
abroad by kings Of finance.
Ruef's desperate move is consid.
cred by many an evidence of guilt.
'Longdon had the goods on Ruef
and his pack of thieves. He would
have landed htme in the peniten-
tiary had not Ruef adopted these
tactics, but the end is not yet" is
the way one of the men very close
to the deposed prosecutor talks.
For six years Abe Ruef has been
political boss of San Francisco.
He formed the union labor party,
and with Eugene Schmitz as head
of his ticket swept the city.
Schmitz, as mayor, has won
three elections.
Ruef, the power behind the
throne, has run the city to his own
taste, and is accredited with having
made a million dollars a year.

Mr.. Johnson offered the city $500
for the same lots some time ago
and his offer was recommended for
acceptance by the street commit

the fact that the lots were worth
much more than was offered and
the deal was not closed.
Last night the city council au-
