JOHNSON'S THREE CENT
FARE ROAD IN TROUBLE

Electric company, as that road al
ways had heavy cash deposits and
the banks are no longer willing to
carry the debt for his road. To
add to the trouble suits have been
started in court by taxpayers at
lacking the validity of the holding
company's lease.
The courts have also been asked
to order a referendum vote on the
question under the referendum and
initiative law passed last winter.
Mayor Johnson has been advised by
attorneys that his lease will hold
and now he is DESTROYS of having
the question submitted to the peo-
pie in order to get it out of the way
and to clinch the lease. If he wins
he can, under the lease, increase
the fares. If he loses the property
may revert to the Cleveland Elec-
trio company to be operated at
rate of fare of six tickets for 20
cents. The council ordered the cleo
tion for October 20.

INTERNATIONAL GAME
LAWS PROTECT FISH

OTTAWA, Sept. 11.-Beginning
next year fisheries in the boundary
waters of Canada and the United
States will be under uniform pro-
tective regulations to prevent
further diminution of the food fish,
Professor Jordan, representing the
United States, and T. Bautedo, rep
resenting Canada, have agreed on
the regulations, and they will
shortly report to their respective
governments.
The rules will cover all inter
national waters from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, including the Great
lakes, with the exception of Lake
Michigan and Georgian bay. There
is only one point on which a final
understanding has not been
reached and this is in regard to
British Columbia salmon fisheries.

EMBEZZLER RUN
DOWN IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, Sept. 11.-Charged
with embezzling 100000 of the
$4,000 estate of George l.. Douglas
of Louisville KY. of which he was
a trustee, Latimer d. Carter, alias
M. j. Freeman, alias M. j. Kelly,
was placed under arrest at George
town. Detective w. T. Rankin of
the Donohue detective agency and
Deputy Sheriff Joe Hill of George
town made the arrest.
Carter, who, a little more than a
year ago, when he left Louisville,
was rated as rich man, has re-
Gently made his living by doing odd
jobs and is practically penniless.
He was located through the eff
forts of the Pinkerton detective
agency, and was traced by means
of Mrs. Mary de Coursey, with
whom he left home and for whom
he deserted his wife. Mrs. de
COursey was not arrested.
Carter denies his guilt, but says
he is willing to return to Kentucky
and face his accusers.

AGED WOMAN 7RAMPLNG

BUTTE, Sept. Inlay I stay
here for the night?" said a bedrag-
gled woman of Sc years at the
police station.
Il have been walking for about
three weeks in order to join my
husband in Seattle" she explained
as she put down her telescope va
lise, which weighs about 80
pounds and contains all her world

Mrs. Henry Johnson, so she
styles herself, and she says that
her husband wrote her in the mid.
die of August to come at once to
Seattle. He supposed that she had
money enough. AS matter of
fact she had but S25, which bought
her a ticket to Aberdeen, S. d.
From there, through bad lands and
mountains, along the Yellowstone
and up the passes of the Rockies,
she has tramped, carrying her
heavy baggage, and depending on
the charity of persons she has met.
From time to time someone has
given her enough money to carry
her a few miles by rail on her
Journey, but most of the way she
has walked.
Everyone has been good to me,

CANS CAME BACK EVERY
TIME BUTLAST TIME

Cans had acquired a lot of old
scores in 1896. Bobby Dobbs beat
him in 20 rounds at Brooklyn, but
the dusky pug got back at him with
a knockout in Baltimore in 1901.
Two years before George McFad-
den doomed over Cans horizon and
gave the scrapper his first taste of
the knockout kick. It took him
three rounds to do it. They fought
seven times altogether. Four were
draws, Cans won one of % rounds,
and wound the thing up with a
three round knockout at San Fran
cisco, July 27, 1902.
Cans had Mcfarland on for the
same kind of series at the same
time and won. Kid Mcfarland won
a 20 round bout from Cans in 1898,
and was knocked out in their last
engagement at Fort Erie, Oct. 13,
1902.
Frank Erne trimmed the black
fellow in - rounds at New York,
March %, 1900, and May IL of the
same year Joe Knocked him out in
the first round at Fore Erie.
The only defeat he never avenged
is his knockout by Terry McGovern
in Chicago, Dec. 10, 1900. He did
not have to. Young Corbett got to
McGovern soon after that and
would never mix with Cans.

GALE NOW IN TROUBLE

They seem to be having a lot
of trouble about the umpire in
Aberdeen. Gale officiated in the
Spokane-Aberdeen game yesterday
and reports say he was little the
worst Jump seen in the league this
season. He showed no partially
in his poor work. Huston umpired
one game, but got bunged up.
The Lucas umpire question in
the Northwest is farce. Charley
Wolf might make good. The UNI
pires draw $40 day, and yet it
seems hard to get good ones for
that money. They're such an i'm
portant factor in the game, and add
so materially to an attendance, that
the real good ones are working for
whole lot better pay. This league
has had the same trouble for years.
So have all the minor leagues, for
that matter.

GENERAL SICKLES' SON RElJNITES
HIS PARENTS AFTER II YEARS

NEW YORK. Sept. 11.-General
Daniel e. Sickles, veteran of the
civil war, ex-congressman and law
yer, and his wife are reunited after
separation of 81 years. During
the long separation Mrs. Sickles
has lived at Madrid. 10
Mrs. Sickles, accompanied by her
only son, Stanton Sickles, arrived
here recently and the next day the
son brought the general and his
wife together. 1t is said that Gen
eral Sickles expressed wish
months ago to again see his wife.
The meeting took place in the
rooms of the general on the ground
floor of the Fifth avenue apartment
house which he owns. General
Sickles, wasted with Illness, sat at
his desk. He glanced up and bowed
politely as his son entered the orom
with lady on his arm.
Father, do you know this lady?"
asked the son.
The old general fixed his eyes
upon the woman's face, though for
a moment, and answered:
"She looks strangely familiar"
This lady is your wife and my
mother, general" were the next
words of the son, impressively
spoken.
Quickly extending a trembling
hand in welcome, the old general
said:
81 am glad to see you, but how
fat you have grown"
Husband and wife laughed and
clasped hands.

Do you want to sell your Spokane
property without having to pay
5 per cent agents commission?
THE OWNERS REALTY
EXCHANGE
has been specially created to offer
both owner and buyer an oppor-
tunity to deal without taking the
commission into consideration.
Here is how it works:
We have inquiries for properties
listed under our Exchange plan
every hour of the day, because the
buyers know that by dealing with
us they save per cent of the
gross amount of the deal. A $4,000
property has not gained cent in
actual value just because the agent,
to get his commission, has added
$3.50 to the price-the buyer gets
less than he pays for; if, on the
other hand, the owner pays the
commission out of the $3,000-he
does not receive the full value of
his property. In either case, one or
the other is hurt.
We charge a $40 listing fee, and
no further commission whatsoever.
For this $40 we contract to adver-
tise the property for 80 days; take
photograph of same and keep it
on display; furnish every facility
to bring buyer and seller together,
and when a deal is made, make out
all papers. We can afford to do all
this for the modest sum mentioned
because we have big advertising
contracts and make a large saving.
To handle property as we do will
cost the owner much more than
$10-we make a small profit.
Our inquiries are larger than our
lstings, so, if you really want to
sell, get busy and call us up.

In a recent interview on cam
paign prospects Bryan said:
II am getting great deal of con-
ISOLATION out of the way the presi-
dent and Mr.. Taft have been doing.
l used to be called hard names be-
cause l advocated an income tax,
and now the income tax has been
Endorsed by the president and Mr..
Taft.
Il used to be bitterly denounced
because l favored railroad regula-
ton. Now the president and Mr..
Taft have brought that reform to
popularity, and am no longer con-
sidered dangerous.
81 used to get a good deal of
criticism because l favored tariff
reform, but now tariff reform has
become so urgent that Mr.. Taft is
willing to have a special session
called Immediately after Inaugural
tion to act on the subject.
1T used to be that when talked
about independence for the Philip
pines | was told that the American
flag never came down when it once
went up. Now we have a repub-
lican candidate for president who
believes that the Philippines must
ultimately have independence.
But / have reason to rejoice
over the fact that some of the
things | have done are now viewed
in a more favorable light. When
secured some monograph records
in order that l might discuss polit-
ical questions before more people,
the republican papers ridiculed me
and called it undignified, but Mr.
Taft has lifted the monograph to
an eminence by talking into it him
self.
And now my greatest sin is to be
made a virtue by imitation. Surely
imitation is the sincerest form of
flattery.' When ! went out cam
paigning in 1896 and in 1900 they
said it was demagogic to run
around over the country hunting
for votes. Now it is eminently
proper, since Mr.. Taft is going to
do it, and hope the republican pa
pers will make due apologies.
