WON'T PAY THE DUTY
e.. Moskopf Tells Government to Take
Suit Of Clothes for Duty Imposed

Nu4I VI S1ObACS luz OuCy Imposed
Postmaster John B. Maloney has a
suit of clothes on his hands and he will
either dispose of it in Kenosha or turn
it over to the government to help pay
the duty demanded on it. The suit
was purchased in Berlin, Germany, by
r. Moskopf, guest at the Fischer
Hotel, and he paid 80 marks for it.
When it reached Kenosha through the
postofice a few days ago Moskopf was
notified to come up and pay duty to
the amount of 1918. AS the duty is
considerable more than the original
cost of the suit Moslzopf has declared
himself in favor of tariff revision and
at the same time has directed the gov
eminent to take the suit for the duty.
An examination of the suit reveals the
fact that the purchaser could have
saved money and trouble by purchasing
it from almost any dealer in Kenosha
as it is claimed that better suit could
be purchased here at considerably less
than the original cost of the suit in
Berlin.

MANY TO GET SECOND PAPERS
June Term of Circuit Court to be Given
Over to Caring for Aliens

The coming June term Of the Circuit
Court which will open on the second
Monday in the month promises to go
down in history as Standardization
term' of the court as much of the
time will be given to the examination
of aliens seeking second papers. No
petitions for naturalization were heard
at the March term on account of the
fact that the court held that the
second papers could not be issued
within thirty days of a general cleo
ton and all Of the petitions were laid
twenty-five petitions for second papers
on file with Clerk Waldo and all Of
these will be heard starting with the
opening day of the term. The United
States district attorney will come to
Kenosha at that time to represent the
government in the examination of the
aliens.
Not a single case has been noticed
for trial at the June term, but it Is
expected that a few minor actions and
possibly few divorce cases will be
taken up. The affect of the Municipal
Court is already being seen on the
calendar of the Circuit Court and while
there will be little doing in the Cir
cult Court at the June term the July
term Of the Municipal Court promises
to be a busy one.

clared the general expense fund was
exhausted, the council appropriated
$500 to the harbor fund to be paid
Anderson & Anderson, but after the
money was appropriated it required the
signatures of a majority of the finance
committee TO pay the money. Council

ELECTION OFFICERS TO
BE PAID HIGH SALARIES
viii Receive Ten Dollars Apiece, as
Today's BaIIotina Is Expected
to Be Heavy

The officers in today's election will
be paid the highest price the ordinance
allows, $40, for their work of counting
the many ballots to be cast today.
This rate was fixed by the council
yesterday, and had 1t not been for the
fact that the limit is placed at $40
more would have been given.
1t is conceded that today's election
will be the hardest from the standpoint
of an election officer that ever was
held in Los Angeles. Because the di-
rect primary is a new institution an
unusual number of voters are eX-
pected to exercise their right of fran
chise. The polls open at 6 o'clock in
the morning and close at 6 o'clock
at night, and after they close the
election officers must begin their real
work. that of counting the ballots.
First they must carefully go over
every ballot to see that no voter has
crossed the names of more than nine
men for council or more than seven
for the board of education. AS soon
as they have determined the ballots are
all right they must spend several min
utes on each ballot calling off the
names and marking them in the tally
sheets.
Because of the extraordinary num-
ber of names the most optimistic
guesser put the count at % an hour,
which means that it will require ten
hours to count $50 ballots, which is
the estimated average for each pre-
cinct. That means the election off,
GERS will have to work about twenty
two hours from the time the polls
open this morning before they con-
clude their labors. At that rate the
council believes that $40 is not too high
O. fee.

WOMAN SCRAMBLES
FOR BANK CHECKS
CREATES WILD SCENE IN BIG
INSTITUTION
Mrs. lydia Meittler of Glendale Ar
rested After an Attempt to
Destroy Valuable
Papers

Mrs. Lydia Meittler, 63 years old, liv-
ing at Edendale, created considerable
excitment among the depositors and
employees at the German-American
Savings bank, Fourth and Spring
streets, when she entered the place yes
terday afternoon, tore up bank book
and threw the fragments in the face OIL
the cashier and then gained entrance
to the private offices and attempted to
destroy valuable papers belonging TO
the bank. After much difficulty she
was elected before she cou accomp-
Hsh her purpose and was placed under
arrest by Patrolman Banks.
The aged woman was taken 10 the
police station and, because of her pe-
culiar actions, was taken into the re-
ceiving hospital to be examined as TO
her mental condition.
The police surgeons questioned her
and decided that she was not mentally
unbalanced. She then was locked up
in the matron's department of the city
iail and a complaint Twas issued by
Deputy District Attorney Arthur
veitchg charging her with disturbing
the peace.
According to the story of the bank
officials and clearks, the woman mas
been annoying them for some time,
They say sister of Mrs. Meittler has
an account at the bank and Mrs. Melt
tier makes deposits for her sister.
Recently, they assert, she has been
appearing at the bank and declaring
they are cheating her. On these oc-
casions she would become violent, they
state, and threaten them If they did
not check up the account in an honest
manner.
yesterday afternoon she appeared
and demanded that they balance the
book the way she wanted 1t. The
cashier then issued new book, made
the proper entries and told Mrs Nett
tier the account was properly entered
and for her to leave the bank and
cease annoying them.
This angered Mrs. Meittler and, after
tearing up the new book and throwing
the fragments into the face of the
cashier, she demanded to see the presi-
dent of the bank. This was refused
and she determined to enter his office
without permission. The clerks fin
ally. after a severe struggle, elected
her and summoned Patrolman Banks. y
