LET RALST0N
PAY THE BILL

City Engineer Ralston will like
ly be compelled to stand the ex-
pense of his trip to Seattle with
his assistant, Mccartney, in an in
-vestigation of municipal lighting
methods, all by himself Although
the financial committee, which now
has charge of Ralston's claim for
Sill for that trip and the Waddell
& Harrington claim for $1,000
against the city, has had no formal
meeting on the matter, it comes
from good authority that there is
little chance of the committee
granting either claim.
Ralston and his assistant did not
even have leave of absence when
they went to Seattle, and were not
detailed by the city to investigate
the municipal lighting plant, it is
declared, consequently, the city
should not be compelled to pay the
expenses.
Before Waddell & Harrington
began to change the plans of the
Mission avenue bridge and to have
the plans of that and the Howard
street bridges exported they were
given clearly to understand that
they should receive but one half of
one per cent of the estimated cost
of the two bridges for their work.

SOME MORE FRIENDS
OF MR.. PRATT

There Is no question as to where
the steam railway companies stand
in the present city campaign.
When it comes to political activity
and manipulation all other corpora
ton must concede the honors to
the railroads. AS rule their
game Is bigger than mere city
election, yet they have made 1t
clear as to their choice for the
next mayor of Spokane.
Every declaration thus far by an
official of railroad has been for
Pratt. The first railroad official
of prominence to declare himself
for the democratic-independent
candidate was ID. c. Corbin, who
has occasion to be grateful to Pratt
for favors received while Pratt was
in the city council and Corbin was
seeking valuable franchises for the
entrance of his International road
into Spokane.
e. J. Cannon, attorney for the
Northern Pacific and Spokane,
Portland & Seattle. is for Pratt. II
will be remembered that during
the discussion of the question OF
the Northern Pacific grade separa'
ton Pratt took a trip east, during
which he visited St. Paul, and re-
turned to Spokane an advocate OF
the Northern Pacific's plan OF
grade separation. The favor of the
Northern Pacific is equivalent to
the good will of the Great North
ern, the other child of jim Hill.
Now comes l.. r. Hamblen
counsel for the North Coast rail
road, and says that he is for Pratt
The North Coast Is mysterious
corporation, as yet largely on pa
per, that seems fearful lest some
one might determine from whence
its money comes, yet II goes be
fore the city council with a de
mand for franchises, street vaca
lions, etc. worth over 100000
The North Coast thinks that Mr.
Pratt is a safe and sane" candi
date for mayor and is willing t
eAtrust its chances to him,
OF course no one has questioned
the support of Jay p. Graves TO
Pratt, as Graves has been frien'
OF Pratt for years. and Pratt ha'
likewise been friend of Graves

CROSS
FOR THE COST

George Cross, postmaster at Val
leyford, was in Justice Suckers
court today in response to a bill
for S102.40, costs in the case filed
by Cross against w. S. McCloyd,
proprietor of the Valleyford hotel.
Cross charged McCloyd with the
sale of liquor without a license.
McCloyds bar has been closed
since the township went dry in
March.
Justice Stocker found the evil
dence was not sufficient to convict
McCloyd, that the prosecution was
malicious and assessed the cost of
bringing about 15 witnesses from
Valleyford to the complaining wit
ness, Cross. Otherwise the bill
would have been paid by the
county.
Cross is the postmaster at Val
leyford and is a prohibitionist. The
evidence showed that he was very
bitter toward McCloyd's hotel bar
prior to the township election and
would frequently take postal invit
alton cards coming to his office for
McCloyd and read them in public
to friends in the postoffice and
then remark: This is a nice
thing; a saloonkeeper a leader in
the society of Valleyford."
When Cross appeared at the

TO PROBE THE.
CANAL AGAIN
(By United Press)

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Once
more the Panama canal is to be in
vestigated. This time it will be
done by Secretary of War Dickin-
son, who will be accompanied by
the chief of staff of the army, Gen.
eral Bell. Mrs. Dickinson will also
be of the party, which left Charles
ton on the presidents yacht, the
Mayflower, on April 20.
The secretary of war, at Presi-
dent Taft's suggestion, is going
down to find out from direct OBJ
servation just what is being done.
General Bell will probably cast his
eye about to observe the military
problems Of the canal zone. Any
way. there will be no further opin-
ion on the lock and sea level con-
troversy.

NO AGONY
WITH THIS

Republican managers are pre-
pared for a thoroughly representa-
tive meeting tonight at headquar-
tiers in the Ridpath hotel block on
First avenue. There will be no
agony on tap, but the business of
the meeting will be devoted to
plain presentation of just what the
city campaign means from the
standpoint of the men behind the
republican fight.
This policy is outlined as one
intended to promote the best in
terests of all citizens. regardless
of creed or occupation, and strict
enforcement of the laws. The
think as Review thinks-or- be-for =
ever-damned idea will be notice

HELP THE KIDS

Drop down to the Dreamland
theater, on Main near the post
office, next week. Beginning Sun
day, the management is putting on
a benefit for the Orphans Home of
Spokane. 1t is one of the benefits
Secretary Jones Of the 100000
club was unable to block. The
Dreamland benefit runs all week,
and a feature of it will be partici-
patton on the program by several
talented little folks from the home.
Tiny Miss Dey will sing several
solos, and her voice is something
of a surprise. Then there will be
rainbow" chorus. Miss Peter
son and Miss Freda Hanson each
have a solo number and there will
be other selections.
The home must depend entirely
upon the number of tickets it sells
for the benefits, so If a small, wist-
full boy or girl offrs to sell you a
ticket, whether you buy it or not
means a whole lot to the small
merchant The kids" deserve all
the help they can get. Little
enough of it came their way until
they came under care of Mrs. Dey
and her assistants out at the home,
E10 Liberty avenue.
The Dreamland benefit is not in
tended as competition with the
10000 club benefit, although the
kids need help almost as much.
