THANKSGIVING
FOR THE POOR

The Volunteers Of America will
this year distribute among the
worthy and nedy poor baskets Of
foodstuffs, clothing, coal and wood.
under the supervision of Mrs. Cap
tain Brooks. In speaking of the
matter Mrs. Captain Brooks, who
has been a worker in the East for
a number of years, says:
81 have found instead of giving
the customary Thanksgiving and
Christmas dinner, where all eyes
are centered on the unfortunates,
We will instead take this means Of
alleviating the suffering of those
who are deserving by carefully in
vestigating each case. We can
then reach those whom otherwise
would no doubt go hungry. Size
of baskets will range from enough
for a family of two to family Of
eight. The main distribution will
be on Christmas, but we shall do
our best to take care Of needy ones
for Thanksgiving. We have just
taken charge Of this post and the
field is new and time SO short.
However, we are going to rally to
the side of the poor unfortunate
who cannot look out fr themselves
and we hpe to make many a sad
heart glad at Yuletide."
Clothing, periodicals, books, etc,
will be gratefully received by Cap
tain and Mrs. Brooks. Address 80

given absolutely free of any cost

FIFTH WAROERS
START CITY
CAMPAIGN

A Good Citizens" movement
was inaugurated in the Fifth ward
last evening by the Neighborhood
club of the Pilgrim Congregational
church. Following the supper
served by the ladies of the church
number TO addresses on the prob
lem of city government were de-
livered and the sentiment of the
club announced in a resolution de-
handing in substance a general re-
adjustment at the city hall. The
resolution contains declarations of
belief that the city is suffering
from reinforcement of law, and
pronounced laxity in administrative
affairs.
The club announces it's intention
of making an effort to establish
similar organizations in every ward
in the city for the purpose of pro-
mitigating the good citizen move.

1t Is understood that the plan

DID GOV, MEAD FORGET
ABOUT THANKSGIVING?

Local markets are in need Of
turkeys for Thanksgiving, which
falls on Nov. 20. There will prob
ably be a shortage because poul-
try raisers Of the middle west have
not gone into the business quite
30 extensively this year as last.
Home grown bird are not numerous
enough to cut much figure.
Prices this year will be about
rs cents a pound-the same as
last year. Many people will buy
the undressed birds from local
raisers and fatten them. Live
birds can be bought at this time
from II TO 10 cents pound. and
II Ia advisable to buy the live ar
ticle and feed It until time for the
killing. .. ..........
But the discussion OF the price
of turkeys at this time Ii a little
premature because as yet Governor

TRIES new PLAN FOR
FUMlcATING

The health department today is
trying a new form of fumigation at
the home of Percy Davis, SOP Max
well av., who died yesterday of
consumption. The new method Is
cheaper than the old and consists
of mixture of hot water, perman-
ganate of potassium and formalde-
hyde in a bucket. One ounce of this
is said to do the work of 13 ounces
of the old mixture and is more eff
fective. Heretofore the depart
ment has lost five cents on every
fumigation. The charge for the
work is 81 every 1000 cubic feet
or under, and so cents for each ad-
dition 1000 cubic feet. Rooms are
closed from five to 10 hours dur
ing the fumigation, and 10 minutes
after doors are opened all fumes
disappear 1t took sometimes an
hour before rooms were freed of
the fumes of the old mixture.

Plenty OF COAL
BUT FEW CARS

: Wyoming mines shipping 125
cars Of coal east daily.
Same mines could ship so car
loads west daily-but they can't
get the cars.
Only STRAY" cars on the Union
Pacific are loaded for western ship
ment.
Investigation of Spokane dealer
bears out contention that country
is suffering results of frenzied
finance In railroading.
These are the conclusions of Mel
son Martin, manager of the Rock
Springs Coal & Wood Co., who re.
turned from a trip to the Wyom-
ing coal mines last night. Mr..
Martin said the Wyoming coal
fields are loading 1875 cars daily,
but all for eastern markets. He is
convinced that the prevailing short.
age of coal in this country is due
entirely to lack of cars and that

ment.
All the coal that is shipped west
from the Wyoming mines comes in
cars that belong to other roads,
"strays" they are called. If a
Northern Pacific car happens into
the region 1t is loaded with coal
and sent west, but none Of the
cars belonging to the Union Pa.
ctic are used for shipping coal
west. Mr.. Martin saId that they
were loading five cars at the Mon.
arch mines when he was there,
and that he secured all the cars
for Spokane. He also said that

$1,400. He said that at the time OF
sale she refused to allow him to
see more than two of the rooms
because her rOomers were sleep
ing. Most of them worked nights.
He bought the place and then
found that instead of all the rooms
being full, there were but seven
roomers and these were not the
kind h wanted. He also makes s.
w. Creighton party to the suit,
alleging that after Emaa had been
served with a summons. she trans
ferred to Creighton Heskett's note
for $3.50 and dated the transfer
back. Heskett wants $1,000 dani-
ages and the return of his note.

Butte asked to be furnished 12o
cars at any price and was refused.
Untitled orders for coal from all
sections of the country made a
bundle, in some instances, foot
high. All talk. of the lack of la
Dor is, according to the statements
Of Mr.. Martin, unfounded. He says
coal Is abundant at the mines, and
of good quality, and that nothing
but the frenzied financing of the
Hill and Hartman lines is causing
the present famine. The mines
could load SO cars of coal daily for
western shipment if the cars were
available.
Several travelling men on the
train with me-" said Mr.. Martin,
stated that manufacturers they
represented had the same difficulty
in securing cars, their orders being
behind in delivery for this reason.
l fel safe in saying. that there will
be no relief for the people of this
section until the roads get good
and ready to relieve them, and that
will not be until after January l.,
when what cars the companies
have are not in use on long hauls.
The Spokane stock of coal Is still
low and dealers are guessing on
where the next supply Is coming
from and when. Large concerns are
receiving scattering shipments now
and then. Ten cars of steam coal
came in this morning over the Spo-
kane & Inland for the Union Ice
G. Fuel Co., from British Columbia,
and steady shipments of hard coal
are expected shortly.
The wood supply is coming in
steadier and dealers are keeping
up with this demand.

PRATT MAY Be
DEMOCRATIC
NOMINEE

Who will be the democratic
standard bearer in the next NUM-
cipal election?
This question is already being
asked by those who are interested
in the spring election. 1t is known
that Mayor Daggett some time ago
felt that he could be reelected,
but just how he views the situa-
ton at present is unknown to his
best friends. 1t is probable that
he will make fight for reelection.
The only other democrat who
is being talked of is Councilman
Pratt. Some of Mr.. Pratt's friends
believe that he could be elected
over any. republican likely to be
named. They claim that the gen.
eral public will support him ire
spective Of party ties. 1t is not
believed that the opposition Pratt
has handed Mayor Daggett's poll
cies will do him any harm, and 1t
is expected that the city hall demo-
Gratis will lend their support when
they are confronted with the loss
of their present jobs.
That Pratt may have trouble in
securing the nomination there is
no doubt. The present administra-
ton will fight him, and when the
city hall machine is oiled and in
working order it is something to
reckon with. From all informa-
ton obtainable, however Pratt
would accept the nomination were
it rendered him.
