RUNS
OFF WITH son
Man Who Had Much Trouble
Now IN Canada

; Instead of waiting for the final hear
ing in the superior court today re-
garding the custody of his 3-year-old
son Albert, Henry Bremmer, to whom
the temporary custody OF the little boy
was awarded last week by Judge
Brents, has skipped to Canada, TAX
ing his son with him.
! The little German is said to have
bought ticket for Alberta, Canada.
When the time for his appearance in
court this morning came around he
was many hundreds of miles from
.Walla Walla.
No order was made by the court to
apprehend Bremmer because 1t is more
that doubtful if he has disobeyed any
order of the court. He was given
temporary custody of the child until
a permanent order was made for its
disposition. Nothing was said in the
temporary order about where he
should keep the child. Because of the
doubtful legality Of such proceeding
no warrant was issued by the judge
for the detention of the father.

FISHING FOR suckRss--cAuoHr THEM

The capitol commission has decided
not To use any sioux Falls stone III The
capitol building after all. L. will not
go into the basement or foundation or
anywhere else The old commission
WAS heartily abused by The reform
orators and newspapers because & took
Il business view of the situation and
contracted for material, The cost oI
which would come within the appropri
alton and could be delivered according
to contract. Then the people savers
arose as une man and yelled their head,
off for stale pride and fealty 10 South,
DaKola products, and thundered the
statement up and down the highways
and byways that the people Of this fair
common wealth had beeu repudiated,
insulted, villified and tread upon by an
unscrupulous machine. This bunch OF
Officeseekers, by false representations,
secured some votes on their manufac-
tured issue-And that was the main
point with them. When they came
into power and had to face the proposi
tion, instead of making good their
pledges to erect the bulldog with
South Dakota product they tried to
straddle The issue thev had raised bs
contracting for Sioux Falls stone from
the foundation TO the water-table, The
main building to be erected of the same
material chosen by the Old comm ssion.
Now that the question is no longer be-
ing agitated and their chances for car
rylng Minnehaha county again have
gone gllmmertng, The commission re-
pudiates The Sioux Falls stone contract,
using as an excuse for its action that
the stone cannot be delivered on time.
The tact that the facilities for getting
Out Sioux Falls stone we're inadequate
and costly, that the stone was not
adapted To the building to be erected,
and that the cost was out of proportion
to the appropria tiOn available, was
known to the old commission at the
time 1T took action, and should have
been known to the new commission ii
1t had taken anv pains to ascertain the
facts. On the contrary, the reformers
made an issue of the Sioux Fails stone
question and then repudiated their
promises. They were never honest on
this prop siti0n. How much depend
ence can be placsd in the promises of
The alleged refnrmers? ?"--Iroquois
