Heiress Sold To
Hungry Count Is
Homesick Already

VIENNA, April 4,-Countess
Szechenyi. formerly Gladys Van
ierbilt, is reported i'll, homesick
and DESTROYS of returning to Ameri-
ca. She is suffering from a throat
affection which may develop into
laryngitis.
When interviewed in her coun-
try home in Oermeze she declared
she has tried IN vain to induce her
husband to return to America with
her and live there.
II honestly wish we could have
remained there" she sighed.

nothing" exclaimed the count.

When the countess suggested
that he might engage in politics in
her native land the count shrugged
his shoulders and declared he
couldn't think OF such a move.

CHICAGO, April 4.-Hacken-
schmidt, Russian lion," who lost
the championship of the world in a
wrestling match with Frank Gotch
last night by surrendering after
over an hours attempt to throw
the Iowa man, today declared he
lost because of "slick Yankee
trick" He declared that Gotch
took a body massage just before
the bout and that when Gotch's
blood was heated the massage
cream poured out of the pores and
made his body So slippery Hack
could not get hold.
Chicago sports who saw the bout
laugh at this and say the Russian
merely met his match. Gotch
slammed him down hard on the
mat but failed to secure a regula-
ton fall. He repeatedly begged
the Russian to wrestle, but Hack
wouldn't come.

HIT
HARD HERE

Here's where Spokane lands a
whack on a particularly cold blood
ed trust. It isn't killed off entire
ly, but one of its tentacles is to
be Topped off. On April II the
United Cigar combine will with
draw one of it's stores here, the
one located under the Exchange
National bank. The Topped off
tentacle is to be fastened onto
Portland.
The United management says 1t
is pulling out on account of it's
lease from the bank, but there is
a hat store going into the same
place and it is not likely that the
hat man intends to pay any more
than the tobacco trust can afford
for one of the best locations in the
city.
The United Cigar stores invaded
this city two years ago in the usual
style of campaign to put all indie
pendent cigar dealers out of BUSH
ness. 1t annexed two Riverside
and Howard corners and broke
loose with all sorts of inducements
to patronage. But one of the in
ducements the United Cigar stores

Plan to Snap up School Land Strikes
Unexpected Snag.

D. c. Corbin, Spokane capitalist,

high finance coupled with a war Of
words at the courthouse this
morning and as a result that state
school fund is richer by $43,650, or
twice as much, about, as would
have been realized but for the en-
counter. At that the land was sold
for nowhere near it's market value,
but the price is considered good for
a school land auction.
The section over which the fight
occurred is located near the Spo-
kane bridge up the valley east of
Spokane, in the region traversed by
the Corbin ditch. The appraisement
ran about $50 per acre, but Mr..
Corbin is not supposed to have
made this appraisement personally.
But he wanted the land enough to
go to the courthouse after it, and at
the usual auction price it would
have been about as fat a thing as
Mr.. Corbin has garnered in a par
ticularly successful business ca
reer.
But Greene also had his eye on
the property and he and Corbin
literally fought it out. The latter

IN JAIL BECAUSE He
WAS ILL and UNABLE
TO PAY A BOARD BILL

Lodging house keepers and res
taurant men find it convenient to
cause the arrest of anyone SO I'M
fortunate as to be unable to pay
up, and this practice, according to
the police, must stop, for seldom IL
ever do the compliments go furth-
er with the prosecutions than to
cause an arrest, and then with the
one whose delinquency has caused
their wrath safely behind the bars,
they exert every means to secure a
settlement. The court is made to
serve as their private collection
agency.
Justice Hinlsle, before whom
most of the cases are brought, him
self expressed displeasure at such
practice this morning. But when
a reputable person comes to him
with tale about a debtor prepar-
ing to leave the city and leave his
bills behind, the court has nothing
to do but issue warrant and as
certain the facts afterward.
Whenever one of these cases has
sbeen carried to a higher court it
has been dismissed. There is no
valid law, according to court rul-
ings, authorizing Imprisonment Of a
debtor in this country. 1t is law
of the dark ages. Yet it is in
voked here frequently.
Even now there is an unfOr-
tunate young man, c. J. Butler by
name, in the city Jail mingling with
the DRINKS and Migrants of the
streets, who has been confined, &C
cording to his story, since yester-
day afternoon because in these

figures: One quarter at $3.50; an
other at $1,000; a third at $4,000.
and the fourth at $4,000.
That is the gait Greene made
Corbin travel to get possession,
and anybody who knows how mad
a dyed in the wool capitalist can
get when his plans for profitable
speculation are hit from an unex-
pected source, can get mental pic
ture of Mr. Corbin in the heat OF
the fray. He benefited the school
funI just about $4,000 more than
he had estimated would be neces-
sary. The bidding between the
two was the most lurid affair that
has happened in the courthouse for
so long none of the present incum-
bents can recall anything hotter.
At the close Corbin promised
Greene that he would get even with
him If it took 20 years. Consider
ing that Corbin had to have the
land to carry out his ditch scheme
in good shape, 1t was bargain at
the price. Greenacre tracts adj
joining the school land are held at
$425 per acre and the school land
is considered easily worth $3.50,

COrbin has for irrigating It.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. April A.
The new antitrust bill is really
a publicity bill. 1t goes on the
theory that trusts can be regulated
by keeping a searchlight turned on
them. Bad trusts are creatures of
darkness; good trusts will not be
afraid of the light.
That Is the sum and substance OF
the Hepburn bill Oh. r. 19745), in
troduced March 23. And this bill
Is, in its general outline. the result
of all the conferences which have
been going on at the White House
1t Is the one for which Roosevelt
intends to make hard push for
immediate passage.
The present antitrust law, the
Sherman act, is built on the theory
that big combinations can be
broken up, or kept from getting to
gether. 1t is an effort to force cor
porations and individuals to com
pete. This law says they must
compete, whether or no. They
must fight with one another, in or
der to keep down prices and give
the public good service. The law
is founded on an ancient motto OF
the OLD English common law:
Competition is the life of trade.
But the present law has been
found to be useless. The more
combinations are broken up, the
more they get together again. The
more the government insists that
they compete, the more they com
bine. The more they are urged &c
fight with one another. the more
they insist on living in harmony
with one another. The more they
are attacked, the more they unite
to resist these attacks.
But not only is the Sherman law
Intellectual 1t is now being made
the instrument of actual harm. The
corporation combinations, having
learned how to evade ii themselves
have turned around and started &c
enforce the Sherman act against
union labor organizations. In the

p. Rihorn, well known Portland
real estate dealer and at one time

and is held for Portland officers on
the charge of non-support. The
authorities are seeking to hold him

The complaint was sworn TO by
Mrs. Pearl r. Williams or Rihorn.
She married Rihorn under the
name of Williams in Tacoma last
january and he brought her to
Portland. Rihorn shortly dropped
out of sight. BY investigation
Mrs. Rihorn found her husband had
been married twice before and in
one instance, she asserts. he did
mot get a legal divorce. On the

filed non-support complaint.

hard times he could not get money
enough to pay small bill of $11
he owes to Doust & Schneider, res.
taurant keepers on Boone av.
Last December he came from
Rockford, ILL.,, and on Dec. Fl went
to work for the w. w. P. Co. He
took sick and was unable to work
for some time. Consequently he
got into debt. Added to this, he
lost his position on Feb. 10, and
since then hard times and sick
ness have made it impossible for
him to get any money with which
to pay the small bill he ran at the
restaurant.
Butler has parents, probably not
wealthy, but willing, no doubt, to
pay his debt. But an enterprising
young man usually does not wish
to appeal to the folks to pay his
board bill. Doust & Schneider, how
ever, seem determined to punish
Butler, whether they get their
money or not, and have caused his
incarceration in the city Jail. How

Justice Hinkle this afternoon is
some friend of his does not settle
his bill in the meantime. That is
how the justice court and the po-
lice department maintained by the
public to punish crime, are used
as a collection agency.
The arrest is made on an alleged
violation of law and the charge
compromised before trial If the
money is forthcomings.
Here is where the rank injustice
of the proceeding comes in If a
workineman labor for month or
year for an employer and that EN-.
ployer refuses to pay the wages
he promised there is no cause of
criminal action against the EN-.
ployer, The laborer must employ
lawyer and proceed by civil suit
to recover his pay.
There are men against whom not
only the landlords, but all other
classes of business men are entitled
to protection, but why single out
this landlord and confer such pro.
lection on him alone?
And why permit a rule under
which the honest unfortunate can
be jailed when simply the victim
of hard circumstance and not the
violator of any statute?
