Immediately after the production Of

London with fixed bayonets = enjoy
cd by but very few regiments. such
as the Royal fusileers. who trace their
origin to Cromwell's trained bands,
which in later years produced SO ia

the Royal fusileers, or perhaps even
before them In point Of regimental
seniority, come the East Kent "Buffs.' .

similar city ancestry while the Royal
marines for some reason or other also
enjoy the same fixed bayonct rights

share the privilege Of the men who
are soldiers and sailors too" This

AROUND LOS ANGELES
Business Men for Wheeler-Hall to Take the
National Field

Los ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, June Especial
correspondence THE second session of "Pro-
mbtion Chautauquas" begins in this county on
June and bids fair to be great success. The
local daily papers taking great interest in
the movement to nominate Fred F. Wheeler for
President. Mr.. Wheeler is prominent member
of the Chamber of Commerce and of the City
Club and of the Church Federation Club, and
scores of business men say they will vote for him
if they have chance.
Great regret is expressed over the resignation
of Mr.. c. J. Hall from the field secretaryship
of this county. Mr.. Hall has done phenomenal
work, he is recognized as one of the abest of
Prohibition platform speakers here His contro-
versey with Brewer Busch has given him widely
extended fame, but calls have come to him to
take the larger national field, and he has decided
to do so after July 1. He will go to the national
convention and from then he will be available
anywhere in the nation Chairman Leonardson
is making plans for more aggressive work and
efficient campaigning throughout the state.

STEWART IN WASHINGTON
Chicago Campaigner Following the Man From
Rochester Warmly Welcomed

SEATTLE, WASH June ESPECIAL correspond
ence)-Mr. Oliver w. Stewart has completed
eight days more of work in this state, speaking
ten times. The people have given fine audiences
on each occasion and have contributed ,O91 as
token of their interest in the work of the Prohibi
ton party. The towns reached are Centrala,
Sumner, Mt. Vernon, Bellingham, Wenatchee,
Tekoa, Pullman and Everett. At Wenatchee,
where the large Methodist church was crowded
on Monday evening, the largest collection of the
series was received-$3S6
The success of this line of meetings particularly
the generosity of the people in contributions, is
the more remarkable because Mr.. Stewart is prac
tically following the over which Clinton N.
Howard cut such wide swath but few days
before.

OREGON s1DETRAcKs PARTY WORK
Local Option Given Right of Way and Only
Four Counties Nominate Tickets

PORTLAND, ORE, June ESPECIAL correspond
ence)-The Prohibitionists of Oregon do not yet
know what results they have gained in the state
election just passed In point of fact from
party standpoint, the election very nearly went
by default, only four counties having tickets in
the field, the Prohibtionsts being persuaded into
devoting all their time and energy to the local
option fights
The state has thirty four counties and of these
nineteen possibly twenty-will be "dry" after
July 1. The local option law was enacted in
1904. Five counties voted "dry'' that year, but
two 'lost out" on account of techncalities, leav-
ing only three "dry" counties. In June of 1906
six more "dry" counties were added One of
these was won back by the liquor interests at the
election just past. In addition to these counties
there is considerable "dry' territory in the way
of precincts in the "wet" counties. The election
of June put about $50 saloons out of business.
