On the surface things are pretty quiet
just now because everyone appears to be
waiting for that police Investigation
which is to come off next week. Untll
that IS over IL Is quite unlikely that any
thing definite about the selection of can
ddates will be done.
SUMMONING WITNESSES.
Deputy Sheriff Arthur Sherman is en-
gagged Just now In serving papers on
certain people who are wanted 20 TESTIFY
in the investigation which the board OF
aldermen are to make into the doings or
the police department since Jan. /, 1905
Just why Deputy Sheriff Sherman should
be selected for this work instead of the
city sergeant is one OF the things which
is not ,explained although IL Is pretty
easy TO understand that II is a part of
the political game which is being worked
from the headquarters OF the Republican
machine In Providence. It costs money to
get these witnesses because whenever
summons is served the witness fee has
to be paid. The city council has made no
appropriation for this work and IL Is
hardly 10 be supposed that Deputy Sher-
III Sherman is advancing these costs out
OF his own pocket No one Is telling
where the money Is coming from but In
all probability an effort will be made la
ter 10 nave the city pay TINS expense. III
IL meant better government that would
be all very well but when II means simply
a game OF politics II certainly looks as
though the city was I'm 10 be thorough

But whether or not the city council
will pay the costs OF this investigation
there is no doubt that Deputy Sheriff
Sherman and Attorney William =. Bowen

and neither OF them are worrying about
where tho money Is 10 come from. The
investigation will take place next week

ONLY ONE MEMBER
IS TO BE ELECTED
Disposition is to Return HamIin n
Hull as Member of Board of
Education.

In the approaching school election in
Rock Island June 26. the only member
whose place is to be filled is Hamlin
H. Hull, the labor representative on
the board of education Mr. Hull was
first elected five years ago to fill the
unexpired two years of the term after
the resignation of George f. Roth. At
the end of the two years he had served
so acceptably that he was reelected for
the full term of three years. which is
now drawing to a close. There is a
general disposition throughout the city
to again honor Mr.. Hull by continuing
his period of service on the board. 1t
would be difficult to improve upon him
either from the standpoint of personal
fitness or geographical location and no
mistake will be made if he is returned
for another term

LOOK FOR PEACE
Street Car Men Reach Compro-
mise Terms With En-.
pIoyers.
CONFERENCE THIS MORNING
Only 10 Voted Against Strike in Ballot
Saturday-Are Ready to Go
Out.

conference was held this morning
at the Office of the Tri-City Railway
company in Davenport, by represent
atives of the two divisions of the street
car employees and the company Off
Gals, in regard to the settlement of the
difficulties over the wage scale. 1t is
understood that a compromise was eff
fected. and a joint meeting of the two
divisions has been called for this even
ing at Columbia hall in Davenport to
vote On ratification of the compro-
mise. The terms of the compromise
are not given out, but it is understood
that the scale is to be made 81 and %
cents an hour, the smaller wages to
apply to the new men. This scale. it
is understood, continues only one year,
and at the end of the year the contract
will again be open. While the terms of
the proposed compromise are withheld,
it is understood that the proposition is
quite generally favored by the men.
Strike Vste Carries.
BY a vote of $50 to Is the employees
of the street car lines of the old Tri-
City Railway system voted Saturday to
strike if their demands for increased
wages are not acceded to by the COM
pany AS only two-thirds vote is re-
Quired before a strike can be declared,
the men may now be called out at any
time when it becomes certain that the
company officials will not grant the in
creaSeS as asked by the men. The
prospect of a tie-up on the street car
lines is not pleasant one to the public
nor any one directly interested. and
the men will not go out before making
efforts to secure a settlement.
Propositions Hanging.
The employees had made two propo-
sitions as to the scale, one providing
for 20 cents an hour for the new men
and 221s cents an hour for the old
ones, for the first two years. At the
end of the two years the men are to
receive % cents an hour The other
cents for the new men the first year
and % cents after the first year. The
old employees under this proposed scale
would get % cents the first two years
and 23 cents at the end of two years.
The company offered scale of 30
cents for the new men and 81 cents for
employees who have been with the com
pany a year. At the end of year
those who have been with the old com
pany year, and the new company
year, would receive % cents, and in
1908 would be increased to % cents.

EARLY DISAPPOINTMENT
 OF JUDGE F. M. DOAN
Is the Opinion of Lieutenant George
 B. Wilcox.

George B. Wilcox clerk of the dis trict court of Cochise county. who is ! in Phoenix and will remain here until | Thursday evening. having come here for the purpose of visiting his son. who is spending the winter at Scotts- dale, is of the opinion that Judge Doan will be reappointed by the president as member of the supreme court of the territory and that too at an early date
 MT. Wilcox was in Washington re- gently, making the trip in the interest of Judge DOan, against whom charges had been filed. At that time he was assured by the president that Judge Deans appointment would be sent to the senate at the same time the names of Judge Kent and Judge Sloan were transmitted. This was provisioned on disproof of the charges by Inspector Harris, who had been placed in charge of the case.
 At that time the inspector was in the west and his instructions which it was intended would reach him a. Fl Paso, did not overtake him until he arrived at Walla Walla. Wash and accordingly there was considerable. delay before he could return to ArizO- ma. It is understood that his report
 
 telegraphed to the department of jus tice, and that a copy Of it Forwarded by mail will reach there some day this week.
 Although no intimation was made by the inspector regarding his find ings in the case. MT. Wilcox feels pos itive as to the outcome and yesterday made the statement that Judge Doan would be re-appointed at an early date He was advised some time pre- vious to tle appointment of Judgo Kent and Judge Sloan of the delay in communicating with the inspector and he knew the appointment would not be made with those of the oeher judges. MT. Wilcox will remain in the city until Thursday evening Like his son, he finds the climate of this locality an especially attractive one for a person wAo has asthma trouble and he is afflicted with it. A trip east, MT Wilcox says, always brings it upon him.

COBWEB BRAINS. How 70 Clean Out Your Attic.

From a military post out west comes the story of a lady who frankly ad- Irits that she was once a coffee drunkard:
 For 20 years I drank coffee, all though l knew that it was harmful to me. I suffered from periodical ner- vous headaches which the physician said were caused by the use of coffee. was indeed a confirmed coffee drunkard.'
 q suffered so intensely from head aches as to require the services of z nurse. I could find no tablets or powders that would give me any per manent relief and I was compelled to iIst let the headaches take thoi" course. Each attack used to last for a day or two.
 After I married and had the cares of a family I found I was becoming d nervous wreck and the strain became uncomfortable Something had to be done. and l concluded to try Postu:a Food Coffee, giving up the old kind altogether.
 "I made it rich and strong. accord ing to directions, and drank it with plenty of good cream. It proved to be delicious. It took several days for tha coffee poison to work out of my sys- tenn, but 1 persisted and won out. and great was my reward! Renewed en- ergy and vigOr came to me and I i'm proved so that my neighbors observed and remarked upon it During all the year that 1 have used Postum I have not had single headache. proof conclusive that my old l agonies came from coffee alone. I can do all the work I want with perfect ease and freedom from eXhaustin- fa- | tigue. and am, a strong. healthy wo- man, for which blessed change POstum and right living get the credit" Name given by POstum Co.

 NATURAL OR OTHERWIsE-The Prescott papers record the death of q pet burro well kSown iri that town as participant in past fourth of July celebrations. His death was caused by eating campomoche, a poisonous Insect that is often found in the grass and hay. This brings up the old ques- uon of whether or not a burro ever dies a natural death. One often sees dead horses and cattle on the ranges and sometimes hears of burros being Killed, but there are few people if any. who can recall encountering the car cass of burro anywhere that has in the natural order of things taken sick and died. And this burro having been poisoned it may be doubted if that can be called a natural death The little burros seem to be tough as leather and like wild animals are kePt down to reasonable numbers by their natural eNtermination by stronger and more vicious animals, the latter eventually falling victims to the human kind
