ELDER STE W!ART
AGENT OF REFORM
TAKES ACTION FOLLOWING COM
PLANT TO GRAND JURY
He Protested Surprise at Revelations
Regarding the Character of Some Of
His Tenants and Today His Agent
Began -Four Ejectment Suits in Mu-
nicipal Court. #

. Following complaint to the grand
jury, wave of moral reform has hit
the Winfield block bath parlors, 1917
Fifth street N. @&a.I'
At the last grand jury session an
effort was made by reform interests to
secure the Indictment of g Elder'' L.
M. Stewart on the ground that, as own
er of the Winfield, he was permitting
It's use for questionable purposes. No
act1on was taken by the grand jury, but
MI. Stewart, protesting surprise at the
revelations concerning the character Of
that he would not tolerate illegal prac-
tices in any buildings he owned.
Following this declaration, s. A..
Reed, as agent for Mr.. Steward, today
began ejectment suits in the municipal
court against Lillian La Moure, Nina
Gordan, Rose Clarke and Susie A. Cleve-
land. While some of the tenants on
upper floors Of the building have been
raided by the police, the criminal court
records will not stand as proof in the
present case. The complainant merely
alleges that he has been informed that
the premises have been used for the
selling of Intoxicating liquor and other
immoral purposes. The complaint will
have to be proved when it comes to
trial. -. = ~. -.
The defendants in. the case may move
unless they do, the cases will probably
be tried in a few days. Mr.. Reed says
he has repeatedly told the police that
when they had information that any
place under his control was used for
immoral purposes, to inform him and
ejectment proceedings would be COM
menced.

STATEMENT READY.
MAYOR WILL CONFIDE TO PARTY
WORKERS WHAT HE WILL
NEXT DO TO HAYNES. ii

Before the working organization Of
his own party, Mayor David P. Jones
will make q Formal statement on We'd
nesday. night that will, it is believed,
be bomb in the camp Of the enemy.
The entire republican county organiza-
ton Of the city and county will meet
at headquarters in the Boston block
Wednesday night, on which occasion
Mayor Jones will make his first formal
announcement since the opening Of the
present campaign. ~ IS. e,I.
The announcement which, it is be-
lieved, Is most appropriately made be-
the promised comparison of the police
records Of his and the Haynes. admins
trations from the records. The meet
ing is called for all the workers and all
the candidates and Mayor Jones' ad-
dress will be one Of several to be made
eby prominent candidates. ..
|, The fact; that Mayor Jones has
chosen to make his first formal appear
ance before the republican party or.
ganization, and that the organization
which is behind the whole ticket has
welcomed him, puts to rout all opposi-
tion attempts made to make trouble
between the mayor and the organiza-
ton. This game was started mmedi-
ately after the primaries, but has been
unable to show anything but the per
feet accord between the, Organization
and. the head of the city ticket.

It will be full of meat. It is prepared
and all attempts to disprove It will be

years ago.

In a short time the affected circle

would crack and bleed. I suffered
intense itching. worse at nights after
getting warm in bed, or blood warm

JAP BABY BORN In ST.PAUL
STRANGER IS PART OF INTEREST:
ING AND ROMANTIC ORIENTAL
LOVE STORY. .:.., i:

There is excitement at the city hos
pital in st. Paul over a baby which
arrived in the world at the maternity
ward, yesterday morning. The little
one is of Japanese parentage, the frs
Japanese infant born in ST.. Paul. Il
The babe is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Kataro Nakahara Ten years ago
Nakahara met the little dark-eyed girl
who is his wife. This was in the orient.
But Nakahara was poor young man,
and the apple Of his eye was the daugh-
ter of rich merchant: Her father
cared not for the ardent love of his
daughters sutton; the young man was
told he must first make fortune with
which to support his bride. Nakahara
sailed away to Seattle. =. -
There he prospered and later went
to St. Paul and invested in restaurant
on jackson street. This venture was
also successful. Nakahara then sent a
photograph of his restaurants to his
loved ones father. That settled the
matter. The maiden was given the
parental blessing, a. goodly dowry, and
sailed across the ocean to become the
| wife, last January, Of the man who had
wooed her for ten years.
Three times yesterday did the little
Japanese man call at the hospital to- see
his little daughter, and each time he
left he held his head little higher.

MANY ARE REGISTERING
Voters Get into Line to Vote at Gen.

Today is one of the three .registra-
tion days on which voters may register
and qualify. The opportunity is being
generally. well followed up, and in spite
Of the heavy registration and vote at
the primaries on Sept. 10, heavy
regist ration is recorded in many pre-
cincZ.
i It is believed that Minneapolis will
cast a far heavier vote in the coming
election than ever before. Party lead
ers expect to see $4,000 votes cast in
the city alone. Many absent voters
who will be unable to file today or on
Saturday, which is the last day, are
filed by the party organizations by af-
fdavit.
In the precincts where the heaviest
registration is recorded today, the bona
fide voters who are registered were for
the most part out of town at the time
Of the primaries. A few are new ar
rivals, and in the questionable districts
all are noted as new arrivals. The
registration places will be open until
9 pm: tonight. Saturday they will be
open from am. to 9 pm. ... -:
