held on Friday night, Nov. Is, we
were not aware that an ordinance
was introduced at that meeting
which prohibits the establishment OF
any more saloons in Montpelier, and
it was only BY accident that we
learned of it thls week. Why this
matter should be thus kept in the
dark we are unable to say. IL it is
proper TO limit the number Of saloons
in city, certainly those fayoring il
should not be ashamed TO let the
public know it. The Examiner does
not care to see any more saloons es-
tablished here, hut il looks little
strange to us that this matter should
be taken up at this time and an APP
parent effort made TO keep 1t from
the public until afterthe- ordinance
is adopted. Under the present law
The county commissioners can, if
they go desire, refuse to grant a
saloon license to any person or per-
sons applying for the same. This
being the case, we fail 10 see the
necessity of our council passing the
proposed ordinance and thus estab

eussed at length phase of the ques-
ton that was not mentioned in the
clubs resolutlons-that OF enaeting
a law making taxes payable semi
annually. That system is in vogue
in number of states and it works
very satisfactory, but before it can
be adopted in Idaho there must be a
radical change made in our method
of assessing and collecting taxes,
and special session of the legisla-
ture at this time could not make
those changes effective for this year.
For the bene0t of the Statesman,
we will say that those resolutions
were not passed hastily. On the
contrary, the question was discussed
thoroughly and il was the sentiment
of every editor present that the
financial condition of tee people of
Idaho ia such as to wholly unwarrant
the calling of special session OF
the Legislature for the aforesaid
purpose.

the district schools and was attending
the Fielding Academy, when she was
stricken with Ia grippe which termi
mated in pneumonia and caused her
death. All was done that kind hands
could think of doing, but medical aid
and skilled nursing were of no avail
Monday. at Il 100 n. m, funeral services
were held from the second ward church
under the auspices of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints of
which she was faithful member. The
house was beautifully decorated and q
profusion of flowers was placed by
friends about the casket. The floral
display was greater and more beautiful
than ut any funeral ever held in Paris
It was an evidence of the high esteem
in which the young lady was held by
her associates. The Fielding Academy
students marched in body to the
church, the east half of which was re-
served for them. The speakers we're

Will Walla Walla city council attend
the intercollegiate debate to be held
in Whitman chapel on Friday evening,
when the missionaries tussle with Paci-
fic university on the street railway
question?
Some of the college boys say that as
the Whitman team has been delving for
several months on books which treat
of every phase of the municipal gov
eminent question that the city dads
might gain a few valuable pointers by
listening to the war of words.
Not only theories of how city
should be run but how these new theor-
les have worked where tried are packed
into the cranums of three of the bright
est students of Whitman college and
three of the keenest college men in
Oregon and the best of these are going
to come out Friday night.
The debate which was to have taken
place last Friday was postponed week
on account of the washOuts on the rail-
roads which prevented the arrival OF
the WebfoOt team. Whitman has never
been defeated by Pacific and does not
propose to be this year.

LIVES IL YEARS NOT MARRIED.
Now Husband Seeks to Have Pseudo
Wedding AnnuIed.

PORTLAND, Feb. 26.-After living
with his supposed wife for nearly II
years, Darwin Bradley discovered that
his marriage was illegal, and that he
never had wife at all. He now wants
a decree to this effect, and to obtain it
has filed a suit in the state circuit court
to have the marriage annulled.
In his complaint, Bradley says that
he was married to Minnie Angel at
The Dalles on March 8, 1896, by per-
son duly authorized to pronounce mar
riage ceremonies. 1t is alleged that the
bride had been divorced less than the
required six months, having been le-
gally separated from Oscar F. Angel
On January Is. 1896.
Bradley refers to his union with the
divorce as an attempted marriage"
and says that he never knew that she
had not been divorced from Angel
full six months when he married her
until a short time ago. When he
learned it he took immediate steps to
have the marriage declared void by
court Attorneys Whitfield & Earring

Mr.. O'Neill said that he was much
gratified to be assured that the people
of Walla Walla also appreciated the
effort which the district office had made
to inform them accurately through the

about these matters sometimes but that
the public had never been deceived in

they had noticed this.
Cause of Delay.
When asked what had been the prin-
cipal cause of delay in the repair work,
Mr.. O'Neil said:
Scarcity of labor. 1t has been al
most impossible to get men. In one
case We brought 50 laborers up from
Portland to Umatilla on passes, and
offered them $3.50 day. They camped
in the passenger coaches for three days
and would not leave nor would they
work. We took them to Wallula and
back to Pendleton again.
I'VE had a gang of 40 Greeks which
started out from Pendleton. They quit
in the middle of the night. No de-
pendence can be placed on them.
I'm other cases the soft embankment
would wash out just as soon as we
put it in. There is no calculating on a
thing like that. People can't under
stand it. The work of three days will
go out in two hours like it did near
Cold Springs and passengers have to be

Mr.. O'Neill, whose headquarters are
in Portland, arrived in the city this
morning. He said there was no special
in his being here at this
time. Just came to see my friend,

the question.
