DRAMATIC CLIMAX in The .. .4
IS FIERCE WAR FOR scent Fare

! CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 3.-Mayor
Tom Johnson's five-year fight to Sc
cure Scent street car fare has
reached dramatic stage.
Three-cent fare is a reality, as
far as one isolated line is concern
ed, but there are daily sensations
in the efforts to extend this line to
the heart of the city where it can
become factor in the actual trans
portation problem.
Midnight tracklaying met by mid
night injunctions are coming so
rapidly one after the other that the
public's breath is taken away by
the rapier-like fencing of the war;
ring interests, and excitement is
becoming intense.
A climax was reached the day
after Christmas in an attempted
coup in which the Scent line was
extended into disputed territory by
a lightning makeshift track and
wire construction that was brilliant
as wartime night attack with the
bayonet in the trenches before
Mukden.
Cleveland awoke on the morning
Of the 9th to find the main traffic
thoroughfare, Superior av., already
possessing four street car tracks,
Uttered with a hastily constructed
fifth track laid right on top of the
granite and flanked by scantling
trolley poles set in ballasted bar
rels and braced by loaded dirt
carts.
But that was not all. The ever
ready fount of injunctions-there
have been more than 80 of them
was tapped before dawn, judge
was routed out of bed, and the
work was chopped off half finished,
with only a weird, crooked track
and a row of flimsy, gallows-like
trolley supports to stand as monu-
ments of the strenuous effort while
the slower fight is waging in the
courts.
Low fare cars have been running
for months on the West side. The
goal, however, was the public
square on the East side, where the
cars could connect with other g.
cent fare tracks. The low fare COM
pany week or so ago suddenly
scored by making connection
with the viaduct crossing the Cuya-
hoga river. Viaduct tracks are city
property and cars proceeded to run
over them to within three blocks
of the public square.
Superior av., which has always
before been free territory, was now

OPENS Up
THE GRAVE

Councilman Pratt last night
struck another blow for the initia-
tive and referendum ordinance
when he succeeded in having cor
poration counsel Geraghty instruct
ed to draw up an amendment to
the city charter providing for the
adoption of popular rule In
municipal government The motion
was passed without opposition and
it is possible that the people will
have an opportunity to vote for this
reform law at the coming election.
An advisory ordinance was intro
duced by Mr.. Pratt several months
ago, but it has been sidetracked in
one way or another. The last
heard of this ordinance 1t was in
the hands of Assistant Corporation
Counsel Winston, who says he will
report it some day. In view of the
friendly relations referendum adj
vocates believe exist between Mr..
Winston and some of the interests
that are opposed to the initiative
and referendum an early report is
not expected. If the move on the
part of Mr.. Pratt is successful it
will not matter what disposition is
made Of the advisory ordinance. as
the adoption of the law will be put
squarely up to the people as a
charter amendment, it is claimed.

the connecting link to the square,
but a judge astonished everybody
by barring Scent cars from this
free territory.
Then the 3-centers decided to get
to the square without using the ex-
listing tracks. Then came the
strategic move to lay the track.
The wires extende to the goal,
the public square, but the track
laying was slower and the track,
laid on cleverly devised iron bars
with adjustable clamps to hold the
rails, extends but half the distance.
The work, begun with a precon-
certed rush at midnight, was halted
by the night-shirted judges injunc-
ton.
A permit to lay the rails has
been given by the board of public

HAS BIG TOBACCO TRUST ON THE RUN

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 3.-On
first meeting him one would not
suspect that J. A. Everitt was the
head of great organization which
has big trusts on the run.
Most notable has been the fight
on the tobacco trust. which has
recognized the power of Everitt's
organization by advancing the price
of leaf tobacco from Z and s cents
to IL and Is cents a pound.
Down in the tobacco growing dis
tricts of southern Ohio and Ken
lucky Everitt is hailed as giant in
his ability to grapple with the
trusts.
Here, at his home, he is regard
ed as mild-mannered business
man and quite home body" in
domestic sense.
So thoroughly has ~Everitt
aroused sentiment that the newt
able hot-heads have taken advan-
tage of the excitement to use the
torch. Tobacco warehouses and
barns have ben burned in the vi
cinity of Hopkinsville. Ky. 1t is
charged that members Of Everitt's
organizations are guilty, The state
government of Kentucky is trying
to ferret out the guilty men. In
surance companies are canceling
policies.
"The American Society of
Equity. known by some as the
Farmers union, was not organized
to burn barns" said its president
Everitt. IF we knew the men
who were guilty we would as quick
ly turn them over to justice as we
would any other malefactor, We
cannot possibly be benefited by
such methods.
"The conservatives are fighting
the trust with trust weapons--com-
bination. The tobacco trust cannot
do without tobacco, and the tobac-
co growers Of Kentucky will not
sell except for the price which they
have determined will give them
fair profit for production.
"a few years ago, in the days Of
the competition between the tobac-
CO factories, the growers received
big prices for their crops and were
prosperous, but when the American
Tobacco Co, the Continental To
bacco Co., the American Snuff Co,
and all their branches combined,
they set prices at which they would
buy. The price was so low that it
was not worth while to raise the
crop. This is the condition against
hich the tobacco growers are re-
belllng."
Everitt is the founder of the
American Society of Equity. ncor-
porated in Indiana, Dec "a. 1902,
The first years work was educa-
.tional. through its official paper.
Some organizing was done. The

WILL CONSIDER
ALLEN CASE

The board of health will meet
this evening in the office of DR.. N.
M. Baker in the Hyde block and
consider the case of Ethan Allen,
plumbing inspector, against whom
charges of incompetence were
brought by the Plumbers union.
Allen was tried several weeks ago
by the board Of public works, and
then sent back to the board of
health for another trial because
the first board found it had no
jurisdiction. The health board
heard the charge and took the mat
ter under advisement. A decision
waste have been rendered yester-
day afternoon at the regular meet
ing but was postponed on account
of the mass of other business.

anese empire Is so well known that
it will not be questioned by any one
who has been in Japan within the
period of her Industrial renais-
sance.
Ask any foreign merchant in
shanghai or Hongkong, or any for
eign commercial representative
whom you may meet in the orient
whether he would prefer to do bust
ness with a Chinese or Japanese
house and he will more than likely
tell you Chinese. In fact, he may
tell you that he would rather do
business with Chinese merchant
than with an American. Americans
are not at all popular here right
now. This is true, despite Presi-
dent Roosevelt's message, which
did not seem to affect the populace
to any great extent.
The apparent lack Of confidence
on the part of wealthy Japanese
toward their own countrymen in
places of trust, is relic of the pre-
Adam period of Japan, when trade
was looked down upon. The trader
was a huckster without caste.
Commercial integrity is almost a
part of the religious belief of the
Chinese. His New Years day, a re-
ligious festival, calls for the clear
ing of whatever debts may lie on
his conscience. 1t is not so with
the Jap.
The greatest drawback to
Japan's commercial fight is not the
competition of other nations, but
the distrust of the worlds markets
of Japanese goods and methods.
Government officials and intelligent
Japanese realize this fact.
The new Joponese tariff, in eff.
feet since Oct. 1, 1906, operates
with special severity against
United States products, wiping out
the free list entirely-2S per cent
Of our goods paid no duties in the
past-and increasing imports all
along the line.
Reciprocity with Japan is a de.
mand American exporters should
make on congress. War with the
United States, except CONNER
cial war, is the last thing that Jap
an. heavily saddled with debt to
American Misunderstanding others
who assisted her financially dur
ing the Russo-Japanese war, is
thinking of and it is the last thing
that England could afford to give
her consent to under the terms of
the Anglo-Japanese alliance. Com
mercial retaliatnoin will not mean
war, and if it should, then war is
inevitable. Sagacious statesmen
and financiers of Japan realize that
conflict with the United States
would inevitably be disastrous to
Japan.

service, which, with the council, is
on the side of the mayor in his g.
cent fare fight. Mayor Johnson
was on the track laying scene in
person, directing the work when
it was halted.
There is a great object lesson in
the difficulty met in getting a new
street car line, even if it is popu-
lar, over the opposition of an es-
tablished monopoly, even when its
franchises are expiring and sup
posedly free territory is traversed.
In this case the people in three
elections have spoken in favor of
it and the entire city administra-
ton is fighting for the new line,
and still it is compelled to fight
for every inch of ground, and bit

A CINCh TO WIN

Although the promoters of the
Cans Herman fight at Tonopah,
New, New Years night, appear on
paper to be heavy losers, in reality
they are winners by a large mar
gin. A recent arrival from Nevada
says that it was not case of one
man putting up the money for
either the Goldfields or Tonopah
fight, but all the gambling houses
in those places subscribed to the
purse and subscribed what they
could afford to lose. The hundreds
of outsiders who went to the fight
of course dropped large sums
around the gambling tables.
