we'll has practically ignored the la
boring interests of Spokane on this
work, bringing nearly all his en-
ployes from the East. Local labor
leaders have offered every possible
inducement to secure work from
him for Spokane citizens. making
every sort of concession the gov
eminent could require. but they
have been ignored by the imported
contractor in favor of his imported
crew.
The secretary of the Spokane
branch of the Citizens alliance also
attempted to intercede to procure
employment of Spokane men as far
as possible, and met with no better
success. If Maxwell can help 1t,
there is no likelihood of much of
the money expended for labor on
the new building benefitting this
city directly except to the extent
of the board and spending money

by the contractor, who is undoubt-

We desire to call your attention to

DIRTY BUTCHER
KNOCKED OUT

Instead OF cleaning up his
slaughter house, G. Sorensen has
notified the health Office that he
will go out Of the wholesale meat
business. Inspector Bittrick visit
ed his place at Tuxedo park, half
mile west of the limits, yesterday
and found ii in such condition that
he went to the prosecuting attor-
ney and tried to get out warrant.
He found that the only statute gov
erning slaughter houses concerns
nuisances.
The board of health department
then decided that unless Sorensen
renovated his place in three days
no more of his meat would be pei
mitted sold in the city, and the in.
spector was prepared 10 condemn
the meat in the meantime until GER
tain that the order would be com.
piled with. The slaughter house
was found in indescribably dirty
condition.
Sorensen was on the carpet two
months ago for the same cause
and at that time pleaded that he
was ready to go out of business.
Recent investigation showed that
he had evidently reconsidered.

BATTLES WITH BURGLARS
IN DARK BASEMENT
Nightwatchman Hope Surprises Two
Crooks in Kemp & Hebert Store.

A desperate struggle between
Nightwatch Hope and two burglars
at 3:45 O'Clock this morning in the
basement of Kemp & Hebert's de-
partment store called out all the
reserves from police headquarters.
The nightwatchman was patrol
ing the building when he heard a
strange noise which seemed to
come from the basement. He tip
toed to the door leading into the
basement and crept on down the
length of the room. When near
the front end he was suddenly set
upon by two men, who struck him
repeatedly and tried to choke him.
After hard struggle he broke
away, and knowing the basement
well, fed toward the far end.
There he remained secreted for
several minutes. He did not dare
to flash his dark lantern lest the in
truders discover his position and
outwit him.
Then the two men who had as

the two figures. He fired two shots
but neither one took effect. Dur
ing the excitement following the
shots the burglars made their es,
cape out of the back door which
they had in some manner forced
open.
Hearing the sound of the shots,
Captain Long, of the merchants po-
lice, sent call to the police sta
ton and then ran toward where
the sound came from. He was met
outside Kemp & Hebert's by the
disheveled nightwatch who was
very excited and found difficulty in
explaining just what the shooting
was over.
A patrol load OF policemen rel
sponded to Longs call and when
notified of the attempted burglary
scattered in various directions with
instructions to apprehend anyone
who was found abroad at that hour.
No arrests were made.
