JAIL FUNDS ARE
FOR EAGLES ONLY

1t has been iocularly reported on

Leisure Hour Club Of this city, This
is an error, pure and simple. The
money collected for fines IN the
Eagles Jail is for the carnival fund
only and will not be divided with any
other organization whatsoever.
The members of the Leisure Hour
Club kindly consented to assist the
Eagles In any way possible and when
asked to serve as judges pleasantly
acquiesced. That is the only reason
for their connection with the jail and
the Eagles are grateful to them for
the interest they have taken in the
affair.

ing the fact that he was only "claim

lieve in giving Kittredge whatever
credit is his due. If he is making a
fight against the lumber trust in good
faith, well and good. The measure of
his credit is to be determined later by
the measure of his earnestness and
what he may accomplish In view of
the fact that he was in The senate six
years before making move as trust
buster, and that the rate regulation
proposition was up before the people
and discussed by the president two
years before Kittredge delivered him
self of that famous interview in which
he stated that he knew nothing about
the matter, it is hard to accept the
theory that Kit is the sole owner Of
any antitrust movement. If he is
earnest in his intentions to relieve the
people of oppression along this line,
he will continue his work in congress
and not set up howl if others attempt
reform measures in field that does
not interfere with the work he has in
hand. There is enough work for the
junior senator and the state admins
tration. An attempt to belittle and
drive others from the field only lends
