Morris in Spokane spokesman Review.

M. but the League, It is stated, will
not prosecute for contempt If the deal
ers observe the law in the particulars
named and respect the mayors order
for closing on week days at 100 p. M
The understanding is that the
League regardless of any conferences
which may be held with the represent
tatives of the dealers, intends to have
Its demands specified in each injunc-
ton and to proceed for contempt
against any dealer violating it..
This will involve permanent organ
zation. as the League places no re-
|liance on the public authorities. and
will have to depend on It's own efforts
to secure evidence against dealers vio-
lating the injunctions. A member of
the organization says a solemn promise
was given that Sunday closing would
be enforced on and after the first Sun
day. in April and that failure to redeem
this promise is responsible for the
present situation
Dubuque Is now facing a saloonless
Sunday, thing unknown to it's exper-
fence. AS the dealers in the interior
of the, country will be enjoined also,
those desiring to use liquor on Sunday
will be compelled to leave town or to
lay In their supplies before hand. 1T is
predicted by those opposed to Sunday
closing that If 1t takes effect enormous
quantities of bottled goods and key
beer will be sold on Saturdays for con-
sumption on Sundays, that the bibu-
lous will form pools and hold drinking
bouts, in barns and other out-of-the4
way places. This remains to be SEEN,

MR.. M'MILLEN's BATH.
Cedar Falls Record.)

I
"a good story is told on Hon. Liston
tMcMillen, Of Oskaloosa, the gentleman
who has charge of Senator Foraker's
interests in this state. When young
man he came home from college to
spend his vacation. His father sent
him to the timber ,skirting the Des
Moines river after load of wood He
made the journey on the running gears
of the old farm wagon. 1t was a hot
summer day, and when he saw the
sparkling water ripping over the rocks
and sands the desire to take a bath
seized him. He stopped his team on
the bank of the river and proceeded to
Adistobe. The wagon afforded the most
convenient place to deposit his cloth
ing, consequently his wearing apparel
was nicely stored away on the vehicle.
In that day plug" hat was quite the
proper thing, and one was worn on this
occasion. Fearing that the hot sun
might injure his complexion, it was de-
lcided to wear the hat in the water.
With nothing on but a smile and the
plug" hat, Liston entered the stream.
He began splashing the water and the
noise thus made frightened the team.
He had neglected to tie the horses to q
friendly tree, so away they went. Nc
GMillen started in hot pursuit, caring as
much to obtain his clothes as he did to
capture the team. He was making
good progress until he spied a farmer
driving down the road with his family
in the wagon. Not being dressed for
company, he took refuge in a friendly
fence corner, and from this safe re-
treat implored the farmer to capture
his runaway team and bring him his
wearing apparel The request was
complied with and the young man was
soon clothed and in his right mind"
Al. Swain related this incident to US
many years ago and vouched for its ac-
5curacy. Mr.. McMillen, having gone
into politics, can hardly object to the
publicity thus given it even at this late

WANTED H1s BUCKET.

Il Dubuque Telegraph.1
L, Passengers coming into the city over
the Illinois Central which arrives in
Dubuque from the east shortly after
ten O'clock nightly, were treated to an
amusing little incident Friday night
which the traihmen say was as funny
as anything which has come under
their notice for many moons.
At Galena, rather an elderly lady.
very plainly dressed boarded the train,
much Handicapped by an overwhelming
array Of bundles, Of varied shapes and
sizes. From glimpses of various small
or articles of household utility which
were evident thru lapses9 in their
wlappings, it looked very much as II
the woman were moving.
Finally she settled down into her
seat, and the temporary agitation
which her. arrival created had quite
died away. Everything wasN calm In
the car, and all of those in the immedi-
vicinity seemed to be asleep one
old man right across the aisle being
very deep in the realms OF slumb er-
land, as was quite Enthusiastically at
tested by his voluminous snorings,
which ever and anon rang out over
the stiffness OF the coach.
After the train had left Galena a
long ways behind, and not q sound
conld be heard in the coach. a terrible
commotion suddenly took place in the
.wonhan's vicinity. From somewhere
deep down in one of her many bundles
and baskets an alarm clock had unex-
pected1y gone off. its whirring sounding
unusually loud and shrill, owing to the
unbroken calm, which reigned every
where.
i With mighty leap the old man
across the aisle was UP on his, feet,
and rubbing his eyes, he shouted out
in tones that were audible the entire
length of the coach. Hannah! Han
nah! Is my dinner bucket ready?p

GUSHING THE GAMBLERS.

Council Bluffs has strenuous and ex-
citing days ahead. Since Sioux City's
mayor announced that the experiment
,of open and licensed gambling houses
in Sioux City had proved too strong
for the, Sioux City, stomach, which by
the way, has never been considered
squeamish, a club Of prominent coun-
Gil Bluffs citizens has formed for the
savowed purpose of hunting the tiger
out of Council Bluffs. 1t is reported
from Council Bluffs that the aggregate
sum paid for police protection by the
gamblers approximates $4,000. 1his is
probably much too high but the game
runs wide open, from the gflded palace
up town to the crap joint along the
levee ii 1t pays for the privilege. Con-
sequently the gamblers and their ac-
cessorIes practically run Council
Bluffs. why shouldn't they run the
Lcity If they pay $4,000 a year for
privilege? S
is hard job ahead of the Council
Bluffs club OF decent men who stand
for decent municipal government.
Fifty thousand dollars is considerable
for Council Bluffs 10 pass up. 1T is
hard to get even good man to quarrel
with his bank account and the men
who share in the spoil will probably
keep the city as the kept consort OF the
gamblers content with her shame while
she profits by it, a sharer in the pro-
|ceeds of the brace box and the other
crooked appliances that get tho
money s5i 53
Without doubt In Sioux City and
Council Bluffs certain element Of the
population looks on gambling as per-
fectly legitimate method of gaining
money and a livelihood. The gambler
gets that idea himself The proprietor
an unlicensed gambling house in an
Iowa city when ordered by the mayor
Ito close and stay closed replied. This
is mighty hard on the breadwinner!"
and next day preferred an application
for city job, alleging that if his pres
9ent means Of livelihood were taken
away by the authorities, he should be
provided for by the city. He had
grown to consider his criminal calling
legitimate business.
However, the agitation at Council
Bluffs, the pledged reform at Sioux
city and the success of Archbishop
Keane and his protestant allies in Du-
buque, is full of warning to municipal
officers generally The movement has
struck the cities. The call will be for
law enforcement in municipal as in
state and national government. Those
who heed it will go higher Those who
deny lit will go lower. Men with ann
bition are at the crossroads where the
turning makes or mars them.
The Way of It.

HUGHES sILL AND ITS PROSPECTS.

1t is now reported from Albany that
the New York legislature has heard
from the country in tones not at all
uncertain and as a consequence will
pass Hughes public utilities bill lest a
worse thing happen. If this is true
1t illustrates two things: that an hon
est man with sand in his crop can nave
the voters with him If he can get his
case before theSpeople and that even o
New York legislature listens when Its
constituencies speak out. II the Hughes
bin goes thru into law it will put one
of the most conservative and ring rid
den states into the position of a lead
er of advanced legislation. 1t will also
be the forerunner of similar legislation
all over the union.
Ii The public utilities bill, which has
caused so great discussion thruou'
the country and so distinct a division
in the republican party In New York
Its a measure for the regulation of pub
lie CORPORATIONS in the state, which was
prepared by Governor Hughes with the
aid ofs;his adviser. Mr.. Hdward San
ford, and submitted by the governor te
the legislature for enactment. The bill
creates two commissions, each COM
missions each composed Of five mem
bers. one FOR New York city and the
other for the state at large, all the
members to be appointed by the COVER
nor. Plenary power is given to the
commissioners, such as the courts pos
sess, to compel attendance of witness
es, to appoint counsel, etc. They are to
regulate common carriers, gas and nt
electric corporations; to compel then,
to perform their obligations to the
public; to charge rea sona.ble rates and
to fix rates; to compel reasonable IA
cilities for the Interchange of passen-
gers and reasonable facilities for Ship
pers, such as switches and sidings.
Il The bill is self operative and can be
invoked by any interested citizen. 1t is
made unlawful for The railroads to
charge more for short haul than for
a long haul, and prohibits discrimina-
ton against shippers or against local
tiles. The bill, in fact, transfers to the
state laws many OF the provisions of
the interstate commerce act as amend
ed by the last congress.
But perhaps the most astonishing
.thinglin railroad reform Is the way the
railroads in general are accepting the
situation. @

TEACHERS PAY

There are those who claim that
teachers can make more in other vcca-
tons, but they will find it difficult
to substantiate their claim. Most of
the teachers are women. Where will
they go to earn more? Will it be as a
trimmer, a typesetter, a clerk, a book
keeper, a stenographer, a servant girl?
AS a, general proposition they can't bet

~ true OF male teachers. OF course.
many OF them think that they could
but 1t wouldn't take long to take the

ably 50 per cent of them would fail.
This would be conceding them more

doing. Some of the most pitiabie sights
