R|DPATA GAVE
II TO TEMPLE

In regard to the information
which the Central Labor union in
vestigation committee was put in
possession of with relation to the
labor temple committee and deal
with Colonel w. M. Ridpath, de-
feated gubernatorial candidate, the
colonel this morning admitted pay
ing the committee 500, but says
he did it not for political prefer
ment or endorsement by the COM
mittee or it's hackers, but merely
out of regard for union labor of
this town as mass.
After making this statement, the
colonel said in a somewhat dis
heartened way:
Perhaps not another man in
Spokane has given the unions so
much money in the past 10 years
as / have. The only trouble we
ever had was when one of my con-
tractors who was under bond ex-
perienced union troubles and
was criticized for not taking the
work away from him. 1t was a
contract and | could not do that.
He completed the work by non
union labor. / was mortified at the
small vote. l expected union men
would give me substantial support,
as l am their friend"

findings of fact in connection with
the charges of franchise violations

tons for the proposed merger.

CAN VACCINATION
Of CHILDREN BE
FORCED BY ORDER

DR.. M. B. Grieve, city health of
ficer, has been urging the city
board of education for nearly two
years to comply with the provi.
sions of the city ordinance and
state law requiring compulsory
vaccination in the city schools, but
as in the case of the board of
public works in the fire escape or
dinance, his efforts have been with.
out results.
DR.. Grieve and DR.. w. L. Hall,
president of the health board, are
both ardent believers in the neces-
sity of compulsory vaccination in
the schools. They have advocated
it from the beginning of their con.
nection with the health office and
have by personal solicitation and
by letter tried to get the school
authorities to put 1t into effect. The
ordinance ON the subject, No.
A1119, was passed January 7, 1902,
but so far as the school board is
concerned it has no more force
than If it were never written.
The question of compulsory vac
cination In the public schools has
been held unconstitutional in some
states, among the latest being
Illinois. In other states it has
been held valid and Is enforced.

LEARNED BY
EXPERIENCE
WEBSTER WARNS CITY AFTER
FOUR CORPORATIONS HAVE
BROKEN THEIR AGREE
MENTS WITH HIM.

e. J. Webster, Spokane pioneer,
who of late years has travelled al
most every country on the globe, is
not much of a believer in the in
tegrity Of railway or other public
service corporations in keeping
agreements I'm which they are not
tightly bound by law. Mr.. Webster
was the owner of large realty hold
ings here in the early days and
gave three miles of right Of way
through his private property to
railways. He had made agreements
with four different railway corpor-
atoms in these right of way trans
actions and not a single one of the
four agreements was kept by the
railroads.
This experience has caused Mr..
Webster to place little weight in
the promises of public service cor
porations, and leads him to sug-
gest to the city that they have the
street railway companies of the
city properly obligated to pay their
share of the cost of the new
bridges before going ahead with
their construction. Mr.. Webster
believes lump cash payment
should also be demanded.

NIGHT NURSE
MISSING

Is the man who leaped off the
Washington street bridge early
last night Night Nurse Woodruff Of
the emergency hospital?
Woodruff, who for the past year
has been night nurse, and always
slept in the hospital, has not been
seen since late yesterday afternoon
when he told DR.. Burchard Roark,
in charge of the hospital, he would
probably be late. Woodruff did not
show up at all during the night and
has not been seen or heard of yet
today.
DR.. Roark this morning stated
that he is concerned over Wood.
ruff's non-appearance. He scouts
the suggestion, however, that
Woodruff was the suicide, and says
he was of happy frame of mind
all the time. The description of
the suicide fits Woodruff, and the
fact has given rise to the belief
that 1t was the missing night
nurse.

AUSTRALIA FOR
], s, ALLIANCE

MELBOURNE, Sept. 17.-Pro.
Americanism is the dominant note
in the Australian federal session,
opening today. The entire country
is convinced that the United States
fleets recent visit inaugurated a
kind of unofficial alliance between
Australia and the great American
republican.
In the white and yellow struggle
which many Australians deem in
evitable for control of the Paf1ic,
it is the general conviction that
Americans and Australians will
fight side by side.
Many members are prepared to
argue that it is practically useless
for the colony to prepare for war
alone.
