police, today positively identified
Harry Dewey and Harry Driscoe as
the two men who almost beat him
to death on the night of May 80,
when he stopped them near the

be charged with attempted murder.
Police Chief Rice lined about IL
Jail prisoners up, and Howard, who
since the attempt on his life has
been confined to bed, had no hes

When Howard stopped the men
they were carrying sacks contain

LEAKY PIPES
PATCHED Up

The Mantle park water tank was
filled to the brim with water at
o'clock this morning, according to
a report made to Mayor Moore. All
day yesterday a crew of men were
at work repairing the defective
pipe.
Yesterday morning at the end of
an all night pumping into the tank
there was only two feet of water in
it, the water having leaked out
through the mains during the night.
The repair men found the defec-
tive places, and fixed them up so
that last night little water leaked.
The mayor said this morning that
1t will not be necessary to overhaul
the entire Grinnell system, but that
when the new 14-inch iron main
is put In on Grand av. it will solve
the problem for long while. The
board of works has recommended
this main be installed as soon as
possible. City Engineer Ralston
now is preparing plans for it. AS
soon as they are ready Water Com
missioner O'Brien will have the
work done Immediately.

ROCKWELL TO RESIGN
FROM TAX COMMISSION

T. D. Rockwell, state tax COM
missioner, is in town and it is I'M
derstood that announcement of his
resignation from the commission
is just about due. There has been
rip Pup in the commission for
some time, the resignation of Joe
yesterday Of Tacoma being one of
the results of this. yesterday Is
out for the attorney general NOM
ination on the republican ticket,
but it Is considered rather certain
that he would have preferred the
surer berth on the commission but
for differences with Gov Mead.
Rockwell is also candidate, as
pirfng to the congress from this
district. His ambition along that
line has been a thorn in the side
of Gov. Mead's friends over here
so long as he held onto the tax
commission job at the same time,
as it served to line up the other
candidates against Gov. Mead on
the assumption that Rockwell is
the administration candidate for
congress.
This was regarded as unwar-
ranted discrimination for which
Gov. Mead was to be made to suf-
fer in the primaries.

city officials which was RESPONSE.
BILE for the lack of water. The in
terview of the mayor in regard to
leaking wooden pipes is very good
as a humorous contribution, but
will not be taken seriously by any
one conversant with the facts. If
these pipes leak in the night time
they leak in the day time as well,
and If at this time, when there Is
no sprinkling of importance done,
We have water famine, then this

WASHINGTON, d. c., June A
You are told in Washington that If
Bob LaFollette. the senator from
Wisconsin, who fights railroad
grafters and others, doesn't get the
nomination for president this time
he will the next.
LaFollette has blue eyes and eats
walnuts and patented shredded
things for breakfast. He shoots
bears, and was born on a back
woods farm, and came to be known
as an orator, and wears his hair
pompa1our.
In defense of the last accusation
II is pointed out that he always
wore 1t that way. In defense of the
charge Of being an orator 1t Is
pointed out that he isn't an orator
often and that he seems to care
more for results than style.
He goes hunting the same way.
When T. r. goes hunting bears he
takes notes about all the little
hlliloo birds he sees and all about
the dogs and the bear tracks; and
makes magazine article out of 1t.
A hunt resulting In one small, lean
homely bear makes just as long an
article as though the bear was a
ferocious grizzly and there were a
dozen Of him.
Now suppose LaFollette wants to
go hunting. And suppose he needs
a bear or two. Well, then, he goes
hunting and gets bear or two,
That's all there Is to it.
The senator's secretary tells you
about it as you sit in the senator's
committee room. All he knows
about the last time the senator
went hunting is that he got three
bears and brought them home.
1t was In the Rocky mountains.
The senator, you learn while you
wait Is crack shot. He got to
be a crack shot when he wore jeans
held up by one suspender. on the
farm in Wisconsin. He shot wood
chucks, or whatever there Is to
shoot there, with muzzle loader
The senator's youth Is what the
biographer of our friend Charlie
Fairbanks would have us think
Charles was. LaFollette was al
most born In log cabin. There
was one on the next farm.
LaFollette's father died when he
was IA, and Bob worked the farm
until he was 10. His biography, IL
Illustrated by photo of the log cab
In, and a picture OF lad driving
home the cows, would almost do for
an inspiring example in a public
school fifth reader.
LaFollettes committee room Is
down under ground somewhere be-
meath the capitol. To get to it you
follow long tomb-like passages, ask
Ing your way, until you get to 1t.
The secretaries of candidates In
Washington each take on much OF
the personality of the candidates
they represent. LaFollette's secre.
tary is stout, plain man. So Is
the room plain. You sit In a worn,
plain swivel desk chair like those

But the word has gone around
quietly that Gov. Mead is taking
no hand in the congressional or
other fights and couldn't prevent
minor state officeholders from get.
ting into the race IL they chose. He
could put on a pressure as regards
the Offices they hold under him,
however, and an ultimatum has
gone forth that aspirants for better
jobs than they now hold under the
state administration should sepa-
rate themselves from the state
jobs as soon as possible.
1t was largely on this understand
ing that the old line over here got
together at a Rockwell banquet a
couple of weeks or so ago. They
were willing to support Rockwell
for congress if Rockwell would get
out of Gov. Mead's way by resign
ing from the state board and max
ing his congressional campaign
without even the suspicion of state
administration cid. An announce
ment to that effect is expected from
Rockwell just as soon as Olympia
is ready for it. A successor for
yesterday has not yet been named.
and it is expected that Mead will
name yesterday and Rockwell's
successors simultaneously shortly.

hurried him to Jail.
The affair took place near the
close Of exercises in celebration of
the transfer of the body of Emile
Zoia, famous novelist and defender
of Dreyfus. from Mount Martre
cemetery to the Pantheon, the
French hall of fame. A tremen-
dous crowd was present.
Dreyfus showed the greatest
presence of mind, begging the peo-
pie to keep quiet and not be known
what had happened. He entered
an automobile unassisted and was
rushed home. where the surgeons
said his wounds were not neces-
sarily serious.
Gregory stood within three feet
of Pres, Fallieres. AS patriotic
song was being sung Fallieres,
closely followed by Dreyfus, started
down the steps to review parade.
AS they passed the press table
Gregory rose with the others, and
as Dreyfus approached he made an
exclamation and the shooting fol-
lowed.
A mob attempted to take
Gregory from the gendarmes and a
fight followed in which several
were badly cut.

GREAT AUTO
!. RACES BEGIN

PORTLAND, June 4.-The great
auto speed contests were started
today under favorable auspices.
More than 1000 persons saw the
big cars glide into place when the
starter called the SO mile race.
Harry Johansen drove a White

William Wallace, a Pope Hartford;
w. Gill, Thomas; S. Christopher

The Oldsmobile was scratched
because of Folberth's accident.
The race is the greatest event
of its kind ever pulled off on the
coast. Folberth's accident keyed
the spectators to highest pitch in
fear of repetition of the disaster.
Members of the Third infantry
and national guards are patrolling
the course. 1t is believed the 100

made in less than two hours.

BANDIT GANG

RAWHIDE, New, June "A
posse of the state police, with the
sheriff, is securing the hills for a
gang that last night held up this
town and got away with $500.
There were 10 in the gang, and two
OF them were women. They held
up people in the Rawhide hotel,
drugstore and tents and also the
stage. Before leaving they set fire
to the hotel.
While the booty may amount to
a great deal more than reported, it
is likely to be comparatively small,
as there happened to be less money
in sight than usual last night.
