THERE is not any bigger humbug in
this day than the petition asking some
incompetent to become a candidate for
an important public Office. A rich man
or one who has rich papa wants high
office to crafty personal pleasures. He
has but to pay the price. 1t is matter
of business like the sale of dry goods and
groceries. At once all over the city or
state petitions are circulated for him.
The average man signs all such docu-
ments that are presented to him. In
time the petitions are put together and
published AS evidence of great public
demand that an utterly incompetent per-
son shall become candidate for an Of
flee which calls for man who has ability
and a sense of responsibility. It is
nauseating and source of great public
harm. What is the remedy?-Milw u

NAL statement of some plan for meet
ing the notes will be made public by
Mr. Gould tomorrow.
In Wall street the belief prevails
that Z. H. Hartman Is likely to fig-
ure prominently in any financial sup
port which may be given to the
Gould property. II is believed he
will accept a place In the Wheeling
4 Lake Erie directorate and that this
will be followed by an alliance, or at
least working agreement between
the road and the Erie.
Rumor further has IT that the Har-
riman influence will be used TO i'm
prove the physical condition of the
Gould road, in return for which the
Erie will get large share OF Pitts
burg tonnage now carried by the
Wheeling & Lake Erie
Mr.. Hartman declined to discuss

COUNTY ATTORNEY
RELEASES SALES
Believes Young Man Tells Straight
Story About Fire

Glenn Sales. who was arrested on
the morning of the burning Of the
auditorium, together with c. Spauld-
ing, on suspicion of being connected
or possessing some knowledge with
reference TO the fire. was today re-
leased by the sheriT by order of the
prosecuting attorney. C. H. Potts.
Since the arrest Of the two
men they have been closely Ques-
toned by the prosecuting attorney
and sheriff's officials with reference
to the fire. and the prosecuting at
torney gave II as his opinion that the
story told by Sales was true, and that
he had no part In the burning OF
the building enther In an accidental
or Intentional way, and he was there
fore released.
The story told by Sales was In sub
stance that he went TO the building
on the night before the FIRE with
Spaulding to spend the night with
him. He was, at the time, under
the impression that spaulding had
permission to use II as sleeping quar-
tiers. Early in the morning, accord
Ing TO his story. spaulding arose to
go down town, and III a match to
find the electric light, and shortly
after his departure, he discovered
that the building was on fire. He
gave it as his opinion that this match
was thrown between the walls OF the
room in which they were sleeping
and that this started the fire.
Spaulding Is still held pending fur
Their Developments. His story CON
corning the fire is contradictory to
that of Sales In that he maintains
that he did not light a match IN the
morning when he left the building,
and that no matches for any purpose
were used, spaulding claims to be
an itinerant Snowman and that prior
to coming to the city he was lden.

AID BOOTLEGGERs.
Special Officers Gone and Matulys
Investigate.

NEE PIERCE, Idaho, July 3O.-
Telephone operators who befriended
bootleggers BY warning them of the
approach of government officers will
probably face serious charge, as
Special Officers Sam Cone and Joe
Matulys are here investigating the
action of some operators who fur
nished information which enabled
one bootiegger to escape in the raid
of July 2.
BY aiding bootleggers to escape
the full success of the raid was spoil
ed, and the telephone girls who adj
vised OF the approach OF special Of
ficers may face a charge of obstruct-
Ing a process, which calls for severe
punishment. MIR. Cone has consider
able evidence against operators OF
both the Pacific Telephone company
and the Nez Perez Cooperative TeIe-
phone company, and If. after a
thorough investigation, he decides
not to arrest the offending operators.
he will ask their discharge by the
companies.
That this will be granted Is not
doubted. for both TELEPHONE compan-
les cross the Indian reservation with
out permits and they are in the pos
ition of trespassers and subject to
election, because notice was served
on them several months ago.

SUICIDE IS
JOHN GENTRY
Body Identified as That of Former
Harrison Citizen

The suicide who was found near
st. Joe early in the week whom It
was at first believed was Jas. Stevens,
of Harrison, has now been identified
as John Gentry, of that place
The identification was made by
William Crane, a friend of Gentry.
According to the statement of Crane.
Gentry left the address Of a sister
in Spokane with him, and instructed
him that in the event that anything
should happen to him to notify her
Mr.. Crane stated he had mislaid the
address. but was satisfied that he
would find 1t and would then notify
her
Gentry, while at Harrison, it seems,
conducted picture gallery, but left
that place some time ago and took up
his residence at St Joe. ii Is said
that he was a man who drank heaVi-
ly and the opinion is now expressed
that this, together with other worries
caused him to take his own life Cen
try, when found, was lying In some
brush about two miles from St Joe
In his temple was an ugly bullet
wound, and lying on the left side Of
the body lay a 80 calibre revolver.
His right hand lay across his chest
and to all appearances the revolver
had dropped from his hand when
death had come to him from the self
inflicted wound.
