NEW YORK, Aug. -o.-The olstAac
ton of being the first man actually
named as a candidate for the office of
mayor of New York city, to be filled
at the coming election, has fallen to
Justice William j. Gaynor of the su-
preme court of New York state. Jus
tice Gaynor is one of the best known
figures in the city and came prominent
" before the people recently when he
championed the cause of George b.
Duffy. whose picture was placed un
Justly in the rogues' gallery. The COM
motion caused by Justice Gaynor led to
the removal of Police Commissioners
Bingham by Mayor Mcclellan. Justice
Gaynor was named for mayor by rep
resentatives of Independent taxpayers
and trade organizations of Brooklyn,
who took steps to secure the placing OF
his name on the official ballot at the
head of an independent column. JUS
tice Gaynor is democrat and has been
mentioned for the democratic nomlna-
t;on for MAYOR. He is in Europe, but

WARN THE
SPEEDING
AUTO|STS
Police Are Determined to
Stop Reckless Drivers
of Buzz Buggies.
CHIEF SAYS LAW
WILL BE ENFORCED
Scurrey Surries Must Not
Run With No Regard
To Speed Limits.

81 believe automobiles should be
held down to eight miles an hour in
the city, said Chief of Police Mike
Davis this morning, "but as the state
law says they may be run at speed
of 12~ miles an hour, and four miles
on the crossings, the city cannot pass
an ordinance that will conflict. We
have many complaints from people
living outside of the city. too, but
the state law gives an auto driver the
privilege of operating his machine at
a speed Of "a miles an hour
The head of Walla Walla's police
department has put his foot down re-
garding the promiscuous speeding of
buzz buggies in the business district,
and with three of his men, as well as
himself, supplied with the latest style
p-watches, there is misfortune in
the breeze for some one.
"The whole auto trouble" continued
the chief, rs caused by just few
three or four-who do not care what
the law provides for. 1t is just the same
as the saloon proposition-a few make
in observing the regulations, and the dis
satisfaction brewed by those few places
all auto owners on the list"
The patrolman with stop watches
have been given implicit instructions
to take time on those benZine carts
that they believe are being propelled
at a greater speed in the business
district than II miles an hour, and the
cross walk speed of four miles Is to
be given special attention. The state
law. according to the belief of Chief
Davis is too generous as to the stipu-
lated number of miles that devil
cart may cover in an hour, but the law
provides that no city nor county shall
have power to pass law or ordinance
that will conflict with it's measures.
Watch Motorcycles.
Considerable complaint has been
heard by the police officers as to the
speeding of motorcycles, the second
cousin of the auto, and so general has

bending special efforts toward the reg
ulation Of those destructive iinple-

'One regulation that the city needs
said Chief Davis, "is that providing
that drivers of autos, delivery wagons

the city at more than walk. We
have been lucky in the past, but when
driver turns at full speed into an
alley, there is no telling when q disas-

PROFESSOR WIGHT T
SAYS IT WILL BE
ONE OF BEST.
Private Products Will Be
Taken by Commission
On Delivery.

When the citizens of Walla Walla
county see the fruit exhibit from this
county at the Alaska Yukon Pacific
exposition, they will be surprised tc
learn what a great display H. B..
Wight the professor has collected from
this fertile valley The display is at
present in the basement of the county
court house, and it is a thing beauti-
full to look at. Mr.. Wight will be glad
to have the people come in and view
the collection, and he says the more
peOple talk about it the better it will
be for the county.
The display is we'll worth seeing It
seems impossible that it could be i'm
proved upon from a standpoint of
specimens. 1t will not be as large as
some other exhibits, but it represents
the possibilities of the Walla Walla
country and everything that will ap-
pear at Seattle is strictly a product CT
this country. As one fruit grower re-
marked, Fruit does not grow any,
where as it does in this valley
Mr.. Wight is clearly in a class by
himself in this kind of work. 1t is
doubtful if a single criticism could be
offered on the collection he has Sc
cured.
The beautiful apple, the juicy pear,
the luscious peach the grape, the plum
and the vegetable are there in all their
splendor of nature-the products of
man, sunshine, sand and water. The
deep red of the water melon is tempt
ing to the old as well as the young. In
fact, everything that is good to eat
and grown in the United States, with
the exception of citrus fruits, is there.
Corn. both white and yellow, as fine
as was ever grown on the Missouri
river bottoms is there to demonstrate
to the world that the foremost cereal
in the United States can be grown
here profitably along with the sun
kissed apple, and the golden fields of
grain. Even the wizard of plant life.
Burbank. would be amazed at this ex-
cellent showing.
One of the interesting features of
the exhibit is a jar of sweet potatoes
grown by VIM. Ritz. The specimens
are as fine as one will see in any
cline, notwithstanding the fact that
many people in this valley believe
sweet potatoes cannot be successfully

about an acre every year and they
yield $500 per acre. Mr.. Ritz and Mr.
Wight believe that yams would be
more profitable here, as they grow
larger and the ground is sufficiently
strong to produce them.
The commission and Mr.. Wight have
been handicapped to some extent by
having to wait for glass jars. At the
present time there are about 100 jars
filled, with so or IS more yet to put up.
The jars for the exhibit have cost the
county about $500, but these exhibits

cost if they We're for sale.

neighborhood who were too small to walk or ride to the big modern public schools. Between thirty-five and fifty five of the little ones have been crowd ed into the building. Just as in the little country schoolhouses, Public School 121, as the little school is called, has one teacher. The daily program is much the same as in the real country schools, except that the courses of study are laid down by the citys board of education and the work is supervised by District Superintend- ent James J. McCabe The teacher and principal of the little schoolhouse is Mrs. Kate Fyfe
 Many of the young people of the neighborhood received their public school training in the little building, and it has produced some of the teach CTS who are now employed in the city schools. While it is likely that the little building will be done away with, plan is now on foot that may give 1t a new lease of life. The department of education has another school about a half mile away from the little school, and this is being enlarged by the ad- ditions of portable houses. It may still be found advisable, however, to keep the little school in existence for the benefit of the smallest children.
 In this school district the schools present the greatest contrast to be found anywhere in the city. Not far away from the old schoolhouse stands Public School 149, in the Brownsville section This school has more than 5000 pupils, and is the largest in Brooklyn. As in the case of most old structures, the little school has it's ghosts. but they have not troubled the school authorities. As MT. McCabe said recently:
