come. Ladies and gentlemen are
invited"
Beautiful women, always attired
in the height of fashion, were
maintained for the purpose of lend
ing lady-like color to the houses.
These women. with money furnish
ed by the proprietors, would play
roulet and other games whenever
parties of visiting men and women
were present.
The 'improvers" feel confident
that when the news is spread over
the world that gambling has
ceased, 100000 instead of 10000
visitors will come to Hot Springs
within the next year. There are,
of course, those who predict the
ruin of the city, but they are in
the minority.

TELL
HOW THEY'LL
VOTE

Thirteen more replies from can
didates for the legislature haze
been received by Henry N. Oerter,
secretary of the Spokane County
Referendum league, in answer to
queries as to how they will vote on
the adoption of the Oregon initia-
tive and referendum law in this
state. Several of the candidates
sidestep the Oregon law. The rea-
son the league is asking candidates
to support the Oregon law is that
unless some satisfactory law is de-
cided upon in advance and the can
didates pledged to that law it will
be a difficult task to line up the
members of the Legislature on any
one measure after they have been
securely settld in thir seats. For
this rason it is deemed absolutely
essential that the candidates be
pledged to support law that has
been tried for several years and
found satisfactory.
Harry A. Rhodes, republican,
seeking election from the Second
representative district, will vote in
favor of every reform asked by the
league, but will not agree in adj
vance to support the Oregon law.
Mr.. Rhodes contents himself with
stating that he will vote for an
initiative and referendum amend
ment to the state constitution.
w. d. Scott, republican nominee
for the senate from the Fourth dis
trict, also sidesteps the Oregon
law but will not agree in advance
to any particular one.
A. H. Gregg. republican nominee
from the Sixth representative dis
trict, takes exactly the same posi-
ton as that OF Messrs Rhodes and
Scott. He refuses % pledge him.
self in advance to support the Ore
gon law.
R. A. Hutchinson, naminated by
republicans of the Third represen-
tative district, is theonlv candidate
to date who has replied to the
league and has baked on any in
itiative and referendum law. Mr.
Hutchinson says that he does not
know anything about the Oregon
law and that he will not pledge him
self TO support law he knows
| nothing of. He does not say that
| he will vote for an initiative and
referendum law of any kind, so that
it is understood by the league that
he will not support the proposed
| reform laws in case he is elected.
The following candidates of both
parties have gone on record unre-
servedly as being in favor of the re-
forms asked for by the local
| league: A. w. Jones, democrat,
Sixth representative district; Jesse
HuXtable, republican, Second repre-
sentative district; John Gray, dem
ocrat, Fifth representative district;
Chas. w. Bovine, democrat, Third
representative district; Thomas
Mallory, democrat, Fourth senator.
ial district; John A. Pierce, demo
crat, Sixth representative district F.;
Samuel Miller, democrat, Fourth
representative district; Sol. H
Meyer, democrat, Fifth representa-
tive district; P. F. Quinn, democrat
Second representative district
An equal number of candidates
have failed to reply to date.
