THREE CENT FARES

'ern houses. Mr.. Walton says that
this would be cut down consider
ably If one could come down town
to shop almost as cheaply as one
could sit down and write and stamp
a letter. 1t would mean a vastly
greater trade for business houses.
The saving to the average work
ing man would be cents a day
and when this is figured up 1t would
pay the premium on a life insur-
ance policy. buy a suit of clothes
and do numerous and sundry other
things.
Walton assured The Press that
he intended hammering away at his
ideas until he produced some tang
ible result. In this he will have the
support of the great mass of the
people.

Grated from these falls, that Spo-

where one may ride on the street

A talk with Mr.. Walton on this
subject will convince the most
skeptical of the desirability of the
Scent rate. argues from many
points of view and being primarily
an educational man, his views from
that standpoint are especially int.
resting. He claims it would add
greatly to Spokane's educational
advantages if everybody could tray
ell to and from their homes at a g.
cent rate. At the present time a
rate is in effect for school children
during the school months, but this
Is only for those under certain age.

The above statement was made
to a Press representative today by
Leo Walton, head of the Walton
school and the Tom Johnson of
Spokane.
Mr.. Walton has given close atten-
ton to the subject of Scent rate
on the street car lines, and when
interviewed in his office in the
Auditorium block he was enthusi-
astic over the proposition. He is
in close touch with prominent bust
ness men and in taking up this
fight he has the backing of the best
men In the city.
In his talk with the reporter he
3rought out one particular impress.

PRICE OF ICE Will
PROBABLY Be DOUBLED

ice companies, which have practic-
ally a monopoly on the ice business
in Spokane, will probably greatly
increase the price of ice.
1t matters not whether the COM
panies put up as much ice this year
as last, the people are at the mercy
of the companies. and there they
will stay. The artificial Ice COM
panies are expected to join with the
natural ice people and raise the
price to nearly double that of last
year.
Last year ice sold at 60 cents per
hundred In large lots and rs cents
in small lots. If, as the ice COM
pany managers say, the ice is in
creased in price proportionately

THEIR RARE BIRD WAS
NOTHING BUT A PIGEON

About a week ago there flew into
Judge Hinkle's court a mysterious
looking bird, and on examination
the Judge decided to hold It for
vagrancy, as 1t was wandering
around aimlessly. Each day since
its sentence 1t has been transferred
from one department at the city
hall to another. and finally has
brought up In the city commission
prs Office and Gagged in an old
waste basket. Now, there has been
quite a deal Of speculation on the
part of the numerous employees of
the Hall as to the species Of the
creature. Major Gwydir claims 1t
rs partridge. Mr.. ONO maintains
1t is a grouse "as he has killed
many of them" Finally It was de-
cided that the ungalnly looking
hooking creature should be taken to
The Zoo. The bird was saved this
Humiliation by the timely arrival
of a Press reporter and a friend
who Is quite an authority on things
of this kind. When the wise old
gunner and hunters were informed
THAT the object of their attentions
was nothing more or less than a

would be big boost for the town.
Mr.. Walton has called for opin-
ions from those who use the street
cars on his campaign. his object
being to arrive at conservative es-
Inmates of what fare is paid a
week per individual. He got a let
ter from a bachelor who says he
pays possibly 81 week. Ccarcely
a person who has replied pays less
than 70 cents a week.
He thinks now that these car
lines are making money, they
should readily agree to so far ac-
commodate the city as to grant a
Scent fare. Their franchises have
cost them nothing and now are
worth many thousands of dollars.
The companies would not make less
money on a Scent basis, is Mr..
Walton's firm conviction because
of the increased travel.
1t would greatly benefit business
interests in all lines. Much mail
order business is done here by east

with the cost, a sorry time is star
ing the poor people in face during
the hot months to come.
F. w. Branson of the Diamond
Ice company, stated today when
asked about this years output:
1--WE have put up about 10000 tons,
or about half as much as we did
last year. 1t has cost two or three
times as much to put it up, and
the price will be raised. I can't tell
what the price will be yet"
Mr. Skidmore of the Cocollala
company stated his company had
put up about 5000 tons at a cost of
about three times as much as last
year. ell also stated he did not
know what the price would be.
