SHRINE SOCIETY CIRCUS
TO SET FURIOUS PACE

Preparations are rapidly going for
ward for the Shrine society circus
which is to take place the latter part
of April and the Shriners have ar
ranged to surprise their most intimate
friends by line of work that has not
been equaled since the days of the
great Roman circus, MaXimus. AS for
the menagerie the Shriners' exhibit has
never been equaled since Noah sailed
the waves with his great aggregations.
Thirty clowns have already signed to
devote what time they can away from
the banks, wholesale houses, railroad
offices and the United States mint in
preparing a substantial frolic that will
bring 100 laughs in 100 minutes. Fore
paugh's. Sells Brothers, Ringing
Brothers and the Barnum and Bailey
shows will cut out Los Angeles, as the
Shrine society slrcus will set such a
pace that no regulation hippodrome
aggregation will care to follow where
these great Shrine artists have trod the
sawdust ring before them.

UNDERWOOD TYPEWRITER
WINS OVER REMINGTON
COURT OF APPEALS DECIDES A
PATENT CASE
Gorin TabuIating Device Declared to
Be infringement of Mechanism
First Used on the Underwood
Machine

BY a decision handed down from the
bench of the United States circuit court
of appeals last week the underwood
Typewriter company, formerly the
Wagner Typewriter company was given
a decision establishing it's right to the
Gathright tabulating mechanism patent
and declaring the Remington. company S
mechanism of the same order, known as
the Gorin device, to be an infringe
ment.
This case has been in the higher
courts for the past two years, and the
decision in favor of the Underwood
company reverses the decision of the
lower courts. The Underwood's pro-
duction of the tabulating device sew
eral years ago caused a furry In the
typewriting world, and the Underwood,
even then one of the most popular ma
chimes, took the lead, which 1t has since
maintained.
A short time after the Remington
machine appeared with the Gorin de-
vice, which proved to be so like that of
the Underwood that suit was prompt
ly filed to prevent its production. A
counter suit was filed against the
Underwood company alleging that the
patent infringed on the Schultz device,
and the contest became a three-cor-
nered fight. BY the decision of the past
week, however, the Underwood Is given
a clear title and the Remington device
declared to be an infringement.

Municipal Art League Gains Influence
of Mayor Harper in Campaign
to Tax Los Angeles
BllIboards

Having gained the ear of Mayor
Haper the members of the Municipal
Art league are going ahead in double
quick waging a campaign against bill
boards.
Tax them out of existence" seems to
be the slogan that the billboard COM
mittee of the league has chosen, ana
fresh successes are reported every day.
An ordinace is now being prepared
looking to fixing a rate on the boards
according to linear feet occupied, though
some persons favor taxing them on a
percentage basis, according to the
terms of leases under which they are
built and rented; in other words the
highest rented billboards must pay the
highest tax.
Mrs. Kanst of the committee was a
schoolmate of Mayor Harper in high
school days, and she has had several
conferences with the mayor, in which
he is reported to have said that the idea
was good one and a-revenue producer
for the city.
The proposed ordinance creates the
office of billboard inspector, whose duty
it will be to see. that all of them are
built in compliance with the law, and
incidentally he will be the official censor
to see that no suggestive advertise
ments or pictures are used.
Among the inspectors duties will be
to see that none of the boards are near
enough to any house to add to fire in
surance hazards, and in this respect the
ordinance has the support of the in
surance men.
The letter of Mrs. j. f. (Alice Fitch)
Kanst to Mayor Harper on billboards
is as follows:
Dear Mr.. Harper-After reading
your very commendable report and
noticing your reference to the bill
board nuisance, decided to write, stat
ing and inclosing a bulletin of facts
CLEANED during my two years work
upon this growing evil.
II trust this will be of interest and
assistance to you.
Surely we wish to abolish the bill
boards entirely. AS to the best means,
taxation would reduce them and bring
some revenue to the city.
1T has been estimated we have
twenty-five miles of billboards eve
have more). Taxed at the rate of cent
per square foot per quarter, they would
bring to the city revenue of $52.800,
and after paying for the services of a
license collector say $4,000 yearly sal
airy, there would still remain A7,S00
"At present the only tax is $65 year.
81 know you will give, this matter
your immediate attention, as petition
will soon be presented to your honor
able council for consideration.
1.-The only personal interest is the
same interest you have in the beauti-
flying and general welfare of the city.
LET this be one of the many great
achievements during your brilliant ad-
ministration.
Very sincerely,
MRS. j. r. KANST."
Late last night the mayor decided
to send special message to the coun-
ell Monday on the subject of taxing
billboards.

KEEP STREETS WET
AFTER EACH RAIN
FORMER MAYOR HAZARD
WANTS DUST D0WNED
fasteners Call Attention to the Only
Complaint They Have Against
Metropolis Of Southern
California

Former Mayor II. T. Hazard, just
back from the east, has become so i'm
pressed with the good roads campaign
that he has addressed a forcible letter
to Mayor Harper on the needs Of Los
Angeles and it has been referred to the
board of public works.
The letter is as follows:
my Dear Mayor: l desire to call
your attention to the condition of our
streets Immediately following a rain
storm. The mud is brought onto the
paved streets from the unpaved, and
when it becomes dry an offensive dust
permeates the entire city and at time,
too, when numberless strangers are
with us.
"I have been east on several occasions
lately and the only objection l have
heard to Los Angeles Is the horribly
dusty condition of the streets. Certainly
this objection is well taken. 1t is in
juring the city more than all other
causes confined and the city authors
ties should take some steps to pre-
vent 1t.
This condition exists only for linn
tied period after our rains, and / would
suggest that during that period the
paved streets be kept thoroughly wet
to prevent the mud and filth from per-
meating the air and rendering our city
unfit to be in for a week or two. OF
course, the proper thing to do would
b eto flush the streets, but that Is i'm
possible owing to our limited supply Of
water, but they can be kept wet, thus
keeping the dirt under foot instead of
having 1t in pulverized dust to be
breathed by every one on the streets.
IT know that nothing could be done
that would give more satisfaction to
our citizens and to strangers than to
prevent this offensive dust that rem
ders our city almost uncomfortable at
times.
There is not so much of the paved
street area put what this could be done,
because at the time when the paved
streets need sprinkling most the un-
paved streets are dmap or covered with
mud and do not need sprinkling.
Until these paved streets can be
kept thoroughly clean they ought to be
kept continually wet for some time aft
er the rains.
MY attention has been particularly
called to this as a result of complaints
that I have heard in various parts Of
the east. Your truly,
"HENRY T. HAZARD"

 giving Day as Planned.

For some time Fort Smith Shriners have looked forward to the visit oi the ceremonial committee and others to this city November 2S, and the oc- casion was to have been an important one, says the Ft. Smith Times. The subjoined letter explains why the event will not occur, at least before some time in January:
 Pine Bluff, Ark, Nov. 13, 1907
 Mr. J. E. Marshall, Fort Smith, Ark
 Dear Sir and Noble The Shrine committee on ceremonial session met last night to finally determine whether we could hold the session at Fort Smith on Nov 2S, and all of them were anxious to come but on account of the rate fixed by the railroad it is impossible for us to come. The best rate We could get was $S.04, round trip. or guarantee of $607.00 if We took a special train and if the fare amounted to more than this amount the railroad would get that. We now
 have twelve petitions which Fort Smith and Mena have furnished and considering the Stringency in the money market we could not expect to get the number we would have got ten had not this financial question arisen. 1 favored holding a stag af fair and doing the work there, each officer to bear his own expense, but We feel if it was held onthe 18th that we could not make the proper showing so We would like for you to talk it over with the applicants and also the NobleS there. if it will be satisfac- tory for us to come some time the first part Of fhe year. and if any are not satisfied we will return the peti-
