TOXIC, July 1.-THE massing OF
the American fleet in the Pacific,
about which the American papers
have appealed to Maquis Ito for an
opinion is semi officially discussed by
Ito's administration organ today.
The paper says: I'VE can not help
feeling some misgiving about the sig
niiicance of the intended masslng of
the American battleships in the Pa
ciiic, especially in view of the grad
lose announcement attributed to Pres.
Roosevelt to the effect that the navy

When Haywood took the stand at

part of his mining career in Silver,
City, idaho.
He Joined the Western Federation
of Miners in 1896.
He said he never knew Governor

the mining troubles of the Coeur d

to the Federation but came from

The witness denied that he had ever

should be exterminated.
Haywood's wife and daughter were

called to the stand.

The Woodmen in their petition tol
council urged that in making ap-l
plication the saloon men had not pre-
sented a majority of the signatures
of property owners in the block,
therefore the granting of the license,
they held, was illegal. The saloon men
contended that they had more than
the desired number of signatures.
A. A. Miller who owns several lots
in the block, is to erect the building
for the saloon. The Woodmen, own
ing lots int he same block and ex-
pecting to build a hall in the near
future object to having a saloon near
their building.
1t is maintained that City Attorney
Rozzelle finds that the granting of the
license is perfectly legal and that the
petitioners for the license had the
consent of the owners of a majority
of the lots in the block. 1t is believ-
ed that the fight against the new sa-
loon has been dropped as no effort
to bring the matter up again was
made at the last council meeting.
1t will be remembered that the
members of the Women of Woodcraft
called upon the w. c. T. U. to aid
them in making a fight to prevent the
opening of a saloon on Fifth street
The w. C. T. U. has just made a
reply to the Women of Woodcraft
stating that the organization is not
making a fight against any one saloon
but against ALL saloons and against
the liauor traffic in general, but that
if the members of the Apple Blossom
Circle. Women of Woodcraft and
Book Cliff Camp, Woodmen of the
World, would assist the w. c. 7. U.
U. in its campaign against the sa-
looms in general then it would be IN
shape to bend its energies against
the saloon so strenuously opposed
bv the two fraternal organizations,
soon TO be opened.
The w. c. T. U. informed the lodg-
es that attorneys had been consult
ed and it was found that the license
had been legally and correctly secur-
ed.
