DOUGLAS FIREMAN
GIVE 4 SMOKER
Some of City Officials Guests
Smoker Ends With Cob
blers in Charge

DOUGLAS, Oct 7.-(Special)-
II was a jolly crowd that accepted
the invitation of the committee of the
firemen's association to their seminar
nual smoker and social at the tempo
rary Justices courtroom Saturday eve
ming. There were the firemen them
selves, of course, to do the honrs and
there were also representatives Of the
city officials, aldermen. Of the police
and judiciary department, of the bar,
of the press, OF finance and business
a thoroughly representative Douglas
crowd all out for good time, and they
had It. The affair was informal-no
set program but plenty of fun and a
supply of refreshments and smokables
which was not allowed to give out
and at all times kept up the good
cheer.
The initiation services on several
new members, which had been plan
nd had to be postponed owing to the
failure of the complex pharaphernalia
which had been ordered for such occa-
sions to arrive, ard these are TO be
held at later date.
The crowd was not wholly disap-
pointed in seeing limitations. however,
and indeed the majority found them
selves the victims of a similar ordeal,
for a warning gobbie was heard and
the social quickly resolved itself into
a meeting of the Ancient and Honor
able Order of Truthful Gobblers. A
hasty census revealed the fact that
there were many unregenerate present
not sworn to abstain from falsehood
and prevaricatioh and to devote their
energy TO the dissemination of truth
on all occasions. These were quickly
brought into the jury box which they
filed to overlooking and formed the
largest class ever initiated into the
Order of Truthful Gobblers. After the
objects of the society had been duly
explained to them, all arose in q
body and had the oath administered
to them, after which they were uncere
moniously crowded into a dark bach
room to be led forth one by one and
undergo the trying ordeal.
Some four or five of the noyitiates
grew fearful of living up to the obliga
! tons imposed supon them or dreaded
the initiatory ordeal and managed tC
make their escape through a rear exit
before discovered. The society de
cided not to divulge their names, il
being sufficient punishment that every
! Truthful Gobbler knows their identity
and will forever look with doubt upon
their every statement, business or so
cial, and their regulations for integrity
are permanently lost. All but three o.
the faithful who underwent initiation
services qualified and the meeting
broke up after singing in unison tbs
| Gobbler odes.
| But life in Douglas must surely bt
better with a. score or more prominen
citizens arrayed on the side of truth
as it is said to be only spoken b!
children, fools and Gobblers, and thu
society is certainly more powerful
than ever before.

has been accused of discrimination in
the compilation of the list of local
persons whom he thought entitled to
special mention as con" dispensers.
While none of the persons who were
accorded a place on the roll of honor
has denied absolutely or tentatively
that he was misplaced, with the spirit
of the square deal" that is character
istic of the hot air peddieT several of
those heretofore mentioned have in
sisted that a number of the most not
able hot air handlers in the city were
omitted from the original list, and, out

YOUNG NORTOnAS
ATTORNEY Of
SANTA Fl
~ssss ass @
Rapid Rise of Lawyer Who Be-
gan as a ''Cub' a Few Years
Ago, Attracts Much Atten-
ton

Los ANGELES, Oct. 7.-Thomas J.
Norton, who started in with the Santa
Fe Railroad nine years ago as a grub
attorney, doing Qua JOBS, was notified
yesterday that he had been appointed
general attorney of the Atchison, To
peka & Santa Fe Railway system,
with headquarters in Chicago. Mr..
Norton will have to accept something
like $4,000 year for his services
1t is considered a big thing for a
railroad company to take man from
the Far West for this important place.
Norton, who for the last few years
has been solicitor for the coast line
of the Santa Fe, has lived in Los An
geles just seven years. he never blared
his talents from the housetops. Few
but a circle of friends knew him.
But the officials of the road were well
acquainted with the ability of Norton.
and when the famous orange routing
case won by him for the Santa
Fe, his superiors looked even more
| kindly upon the tall. straight, and
slim, quiet young attorney.
Norman is succeeded as solicitor by
e. w. Camp. who has been his assist
ant for some years. Camp was once
United States District Attorney in
North Dakota. and recently a member
of the California Legislature. Camp
in turn is succeeded by U. T. Clot
felter
The interest in the railroad world
centers upon the sudden rise of Nor
ton. About fifteen years ago he was {
reporter on the Kansas City Journal
and did some editorial writing. Theu
he took up the study of law.
After his admission to the bar he
practiced in Kansas City and later
went TO Chicago. He applied himselt
lassiduously to the study of corporation
| law and got a minor position in the
general solicitors office of the Santa
Fe in Chicago about 1898. He did his
work well
He was comparatively young ther
and looked upon his position as
great favor
About 1900, Capt. c. n. Sperry, whc
was Coast solicitor for the Santa Fe
desired an assistant and young Nor
tn was selected.
After three years had passed, Capt
Sperry died and Norton was appoint
ed in his place.
Shortly after this the famous Orange
rounting case was opened and Morton
took up the case for the Santa Fe
1t was a bitter battle, but he won.
Another case which has added to tn
glory of Nortol SaS the I.rh Lf wa
Pacific transgressed upon the right o
way of the Santa Fee. Norton Tough
this hard and after it had been carrie
to the higest court it was decided q
favor of the Santa Fe.
| The promotion of Norton is one o
the longest leaps of recent Tailroa'
record. Norton, as solicitor, receives
about one-fourth OF the salary of ney
position.
This appointment came to me
great surprise" said Norton las
night. Il had not the slightest expec
tation of receiving it, and ] feel yer
humble in accepting 1t. / have bee
, with the Santa Fe system about min
years and have always worked hare
have expected promotion, but not :
this position, which | know to be yer
important The gentlemen who wi
follow me here are most eXcellen
attorneys and are too well known i
California for me to sound thei
