SPEECH IS POSTPONED
Judge Bowman Talks Briefly to
Small Gathering of Stu
dents.

A corporals guard of university stu
dents turned out last evening to hear a
lecture which was to have been deliv-
cred upon Republican Principles by
Judge ]. NJ. Bowman.
J. Perry Goddard. president of the stu
dents political study league, explained
that it would not be right to ask Judge
Bowman to deliver address to the few
present. so announced that the lecture
had been postponed until Jan. TO-
Judge Bowman was present and spoke
to the students for a few minutes along
general lines. He explained that he re
allied that before holiday examina-
tions and home trips are holding the av-
erage students attention at present.
81 am anxious to discuss things political
with interested young men and women,
he said when the holidays are over /
will be delighted to talk to you about the
Republican party and explain its prin-
ciples. When l finish l hope you will see
clearly how you should vote
The speaker then launched into an elo-
quent address, in which he reviewed
briefly tbs history of America, touching
upon the many events which are famil-
lar to every patriotic American.
1T is not the ticket you vote that
COUNTS he said; Its the reason you
have for voting that makes your vote
worth while. Too many men and women
vote for certain tickets because their par
ents voted that way. Very few voters of
the thous9 nds who go to the polls at 10
cal and national elections can discuss the
principles for which their party stands.
Until each voter studies national issues
and the purposes of his party5 platform
he is casting a meaningless vote.

Concert.

The concert given last evening for the
benefit of the Mcdowell fund. by the mu-
sicians of the city. was in an artistic
sense as fine a production as has ever
been given by local talent. The music
was well selected, some of the best COM

DARING BREAK FROM MORRIS HOME LEAVES
ONLY ONE LITTLE TRUSTY IN THE INSTITUTION

A carefully laid plot, a daring dash for
liberty, and eight boys who were in de-
tention at the Morris home for delin-
quents in the juvenile court escaped their
bonds yesterday afternoon and were free.
The skill and sagacity used in putting the
plan into execution would do credit TO
older hands
The approach of the Christmas season
has had the effect of relaxing the vigil
ance of those in charge of the home. The
home is not, properly speaking. a JAIL
but merely a place of detention. The
boys are allowed many liberties, but not
absolute freedom of will.
, Yesterday afternoon while Superintend-
ent w. Fl. S. Westlake was engaged in
talking to shOpkeeper who was said to
have sold the boys tobacco, and while
only the cook was in the school, the lads
headed by Earl Evans, better known as

"Dugan." made their escape from the
school
Only one lad was left to tell the story.
The others had coaxed, threatened and
cajoied him in order to lead him into
temptation, but he could not be tempted.
Finding that this lad could not be in
duced to leave the home, the other lads
skipped without him, announcing thar
they were going ito Los Angeles, where
they amt no STOW, an where oranges

As soon as the break was made known
to the officials of the juvenile court, a
half dozen larger boys, wards of the
court were put on the trail of the ju
venile freedom seekers. Late last night
neither party had been heard from, with
the exception of a meager word from
Murray to the effect that the first band
of youngsters had passed through that
town before dark.

Railroads Blame Coal Mines fol
the Fuel Short

A rate of $40 per car for switching has
been established by the Oregon Short
Line on the Marysville and Boise
branches. to permit residents of those ter
ritories bringing in supplies of wood The
Oregon Short Line asserts that it has
cars, and a shortage of coal at the mines,
and not lack of equipment, is the real
cause for the present scarcity of fuel.

Raise Is General.

An order OF ham and eggs has cost
thirty-five cents in the better reStau-
rants. but this combination now brings
an additional five cents From twenty
five cents the price had advanced to
thirty-five cents in the second-class res
taurants- This is an advance of forty
per cent. Chicken taInaleS, which have
been passed over the counter at twenty
five cents, now cost thirty-five cents. The
same price now holds good on pork and
beans Preserves, which have sold for
fifteen cents an order now cost twenty
cents. raise of thirty-three and third
per cent.
There is an advance noticeable in the
retail prices, also. Eggs are selling for
forty cents per dozen. butter for forty
cents per pound Prices on pork, fresh
and cured, veal. beef and other common
meats, are higher than they were a few
weeks ago. The restaurant men held a
meeting day before yesterday to consider
matters. and admitted that there is one
thing only. left for them to do in view
of the wholesalers refusal to grant new
contracts at old prices. and that is to
raise the prices of their orders.
The motto to be displayed in all res
taurants will be. IF we rob you, it's a
sign we need the money"

Ham AND EGGS
FOR KINGS ALONE
A Steep Advance Is Made in
Prices of Meat Orders
lin Restaurants.

Salt Lake restaurants are having new
bills of fare printed, as prices on old
menus have climbed from twenty-five to
ten per cent. When the restaurant own
ers began to renew their meat contracts
with Salt Lake wholesale houses, they
found prices had advanced and no con-
tracts could be made with wholesalers
unless the difference was paid
One first-claSS restaurant on Main
street holds a meat contract which does
not expire until next summer, hence it
will not be affected by the climb in
prices. On side dishes, such as fruits.
preserves and deIicacies, from five to ten
cents has been added to the price per
order. The advance does not affect the
higher priced restaurants alone, but will
bring prices up in the second and third
class houses. The first restaurant to
change figures on its menu is a second
class place.
