MA, BROWN

Councilman l.. c. Brown, the
butcher, met with a frost from the
other councilmen last night when
he wanted his proposed ordinance
annuling the meat inspector or
dinance taken up and passed. They
wouldn't bulge. Brown, as butch
er, by his proposed ordinance, is
merely trying to get back at Otto
Bittrick, meat inspector. by doing
away with his Office. BY making a
common sanitary inspector of Bit
trick meat inspection would be q
dead letter and Bittrick would re-
ceiye a salary of $S5 a. month in
stead of the $110 he now receives
under the ordinance creating a
special meat inspector.
Brown has been the butchers
representative in the. council in
working against the present meat
inspection. The old law providing
that poisonous preservatives or
coloring matter should not be used,
and only saltpetre should be used,
was knocked out by the courts that
decided saltpetre was not the only
on-poisonous preservative. Bit
trick has been working under an
other ordinance and has promised
to get busy with the butchers.
Butcher Brown is after him.

Robert was inexpressibly shocked

A WESTERN LoCHINvA1.
ny J. Cullins.

When young Lochinvar came out
of the west he wasn't the last of his
kind.
In Oregon there lived a young girl
with her 3 strapping brothers and
her mother and father. In this fam
lily the daughter, Margaret Black,
was regarded as the idol-aiso the
slave. She was to be worshiped so
long as she obeyed. When she
wanted to disobey, then she was to
be ruled.
One day Margaret happened to
walk farther away from home than
usual and got lost. In this prediea-
ment she was found by young man
who carried rifle under his arm. He
was not lost. He smiled when the
girl confessed that she was OF
course he had to take her home
Then they both laughed and the
work was done.
I'm Edgar Roy" he said. =" live
within 10 miles of YOU" To walk
10 miles out Of your way just to
see that lost girl finds her way
home is nothing--in Oregon. They
do worse things than that.
But here began the story. After
that Margaret's disobedience COM
menced. When the large brothers
and the father discovered this they
found that they did not like young
Roy and discovered all manner of
reasons why he would not do. They
communicated these reasons to Mar
garet. Finally the family brought
matters to a crisis by locking Mar.
garet in her room.
Roy at last found out that Mar
garet was a prisoner. He also learn
ed that he was the cause of it-and
he imagined some. too. Being a
young man of decided convictions he
acted promptly.
He went to the nearest town and
| secured a minister and a marriage
license. took his gun and set out
for the Black home.
Roy and the clergyman walked up
to the house and knocked on the
door. The oldest brother threw 1t
open, revealing the whole family
seated at the table Margaret had
been allowed out Of her room to eat
dinner and she had been sitting ST.
lently, refusing to discuss her love
affairs with her bI others
Before 1 could move Roy had his
rifle in position where 1t could be
useed rapidly and effectively.
Just stand where you are,
please" he said. mr. Black, will
you sit down again. Margaret, come
out doors a minute?
Il just wanted a moments talk
with Margaret I heard she was
keeping the house SO l had to come
here to see her I understand that
you were looking for me. so I
thought I would avoid trouble.
Margaret, just wanted to ask you
If you would marry me%
YES" said the disobedient Mar
garet. II won't be a prisoner any
longer. I won't stay in this house
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1907-07-10
The Daily Short Story

"Then If your brothers and faith
er will just step outside" said Roy,
and he pointed the rifle toward each
in succession. In certain parts of
the west a gun play means business
and not a bluff. So the brothers
and the father came outside.
Now, If you will just move about
SO feet away" said Roy, and they
moved.
The minister had been standing
through this proceeding. a rather
startled man, but one who was be-
ginning to see the part he was to
play.
1 secured license before spoke
to you" said Roy to the minister.
Here it is. Now marry u.s." -
Margaret came out of the house
and took Rey's hand. He used the
other to keep the rifle pointed in
the direction Of the witnesses"

Everything had gone wrong In

Everything had gone wrong In
The house that day.
The cleaning was only half done,
the place was upside down, the
butchers boy came late, the dinner
was miserably cooked.
She expected him to be cross. He
had every right to be cross, she
knew. She had mismanaged every
thing. She was just failure.
