NEED NEW PARTY PLACEMENTS
Former United States Senator Believes
 in Bryan and Roosevelt.

Spokane, Wash, Nov. s. George Turner, former United States senator for eastern Wash ington and one time judge on the supreme bench Tn this state, declares that while he. is out of politics he is in sympathy with Williams Jennings Bryan, Theo- dore Roosevelt, Senator LaFol- leite and Cummius, Congressman Miles Poindexter and others of the advanced wings of the Demo- cratic and Republican parties. He says among other things in an authorized statenent:
 lin my judgment there is but little difference in the principles and purposes of the two parties and absolutely no difference, ex cept few exploded fallacies of ante-bellum Democracy between the reactionary clements of the old parties. There ought to be a new political alignment to meet these essential conditions, and when there is l hope to be found with Bryan, Roosevelt, LoFol- lettee and those who believe with them. Until then l shall remain with Bryan and the advanced Democracy he represents.

WORK THE BEST CURE
A Police Magistrate Finds Serious Faalt With the System of Keeping
 Jail Prisoners in likeness.

Spokane, Wash, Nov. S.- Samuel A. Mann, police magis- trate of Spokane, formely a news paper writer and theatrical per- former in the east, believes he has solved the problem of dealing with hardened criminals, habitual drunkards and hop fiends, wife. beaters, drones and juvenile of lenders. The pauscea:
 "Give them work-work that tires the body and rests the mind /; give them wholesome food and frequent bathes. The rock pile is a suitable place in the absence of an established workhouse."
 Judge Mann handles from 45 to 60 cases daily during the six days a week the court is in session, thus giving him opportunity 10 see the result of sending prisoners to the city jail. He says they in- variably returu to answer 10 some other if not the same charge and the fall is from bad to worse, the climax, as a rule, being the pcni- tentiary for life or long periods. He added:
 Speaking from strictly hn- manitasian standpoint, 1 beleive t is wrong to keep criminal iu absolute idleness for 30, b0 or 90 days. while the result of incarcer- atiug a normal human being, who has committed no crime, for a similar peroid will either make him a criminal or drive him Iusat1e. sI have watched the results of sentences on the rock pile.

 Work to the amount of over $500 has been done in search of the silver and gold, and the men engaged in the excavation gre following the directions given by the old chart to the letter. The turkey track in the bed of tue branch and the human tracks by the spring have been found, 1t IS claimed, and all now that is lack ing to find the gold and silver is just to dig down and scoop 1t out The whole community, compris- ing that known as Hickory Creek, IS waiting further development with wild enthusiasm.
